Stock Na's usually top out around 130 or maybe a tad bit more, I've never seen any higher numbers personally.

racingbeat has a fc that tops at 238mph im not sure if its n/a or not. but its all about gearing. you can put gears in you car with a 0-60 rate of 60sec but top out over 200+ plus and also i said it will have to potential i never said it will because it is going to be setup for roadcourse and autocross

in 5th the tranny runs out of gear, the t2 tranny is worse. but doing tripple MPH is retarded.

i understand what you guys are talking about. It is dangerous but its ******* FUN. I was very scared though when i did that, since it was the first time i ever took my car over 100mph. i was holding the steering wheel straight and the car was strafing left and right due to the wind. Good thing the 4 lane highway was EMPTY it was at 4aM...and i was moving between two lanes in and out. so thats how i know ya need to setup ure car more properly before you do something like that.



I drive fast on average but not passed 100mph if the roads aint empty

EDIT: The reason why there preaching on going over 100mph is not becuase there worried about the driver, they dont want to see the 7 in the junkyard!. hahhhaaa https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683329.gif

I have gone 120 in my NA in fourth (top of fourth) down a raod that was kind of bendy and bumpy. It was not a good idea however it made me wonder what 5th would do, it doesn't seem strong but if i was going 120 in fourth i was hopeing for 140 in fifth. One day when i get the balls and the right track/road i will.

what happened to me was when i shifted into fifth it slowly started creaping up and i was was a little upset but yet i was surprised. i was upset because i thought it would have a little bit more acceleration than it did but then when i got it up to 137 and i was surprised for a stock 88 n/a thats not bad.

yeah you won't have enough time to do that on the track to slow down. 5th is overdrive your not going to go much faster, quit while your ahead and still alive.

i've never noticed any kind of problems going over 100mph. I've never heard of an indy rx7 club. I want details on this so i can join. And the racing beat car was turboed, thats how it got up that fast. And if you watch any videos online, they crashed the first 3rd gen car they did. I was bad. So get safety equipment like a roll cage if you plan on doing this a lot.
