What were you driving when you first did over 180kmph (or about 110mph)?

What were you driving when you first did over 180kmph (or about 110mph)?

1989 Toyota Celica ST for me.

Why is that guy jerkin it?

2003 shitbox civic

2007 diesel Peugeot 407

ok ok i'll bite, i'll be charitable, uh, it was a 1998 GC8 Subaru Impreza WRX. it was in the later years that the WRX had the fancy wheels & trim pieces. the engine was the bigger one however so that was my pride & joy

Blazer S10 4.3 Vortec. More than likely with no oil pressure lel.

I don't think I ever went that fast in the El Camino cuz the speedo only went to 85 and I doubt the 305 even having the oomph to do it even if it did bury 85. For a fact I know I did it in the Probe since I buried the 120.

It was prom night. I was trying to impress my date by bringing my parents' car up to 115 MPH.

8 cyl 7 serie bimmer when i was like 17

took my moms Avalon to little over 120mph when I was a high school Junior

few years later I pegged a Yamaha r1s governor at over 180mph
after I got a power commander was easy to hit 190mph
stupid nigger stole that bike and wrecked it tho

A 2001 Saturn SC2. I got it up to 125. It was a harrowing experience.

I know this may be hard to believe, but I did 190kmh/112mph in my 1989 escort 1.6.

2005 Honda odyssey
the poor ol' thing was not happy about it

I was in a gt86 on a track. Passenger though. Got to 190 before having to corner. First time me driving was riding on my bike. Topped out at 200.

That's pretty remarkable. My 1999 topped out at 107, but it was a piece of shit with even shittier tires.

Believe it or not these can reach almost 130mph if you stand on the gas long enough.

That's not too hard to believe. I once got a 1991 mitsubishi lancer SEI running a 1.6L 12-valve SOHC 4cyl up to 195kmph.

Topped out at that speed and I couldn't quite get it to 200. And it took over a minute of driving on a stretch of road that went for kilometres to get from 150 to 195. But hey, it got there.

A Honda Odyssey?? Lmao well okay then

>08 Hyundai Accent
>check engine light came on after

02 Hyundai accent. I felt as though I was about to die otherwise I would've done 120. I did that in my mothers Civic

This shitbox. Fastest ive ever went in it is 135.

The poor car doesn't have a check driver light so that's as close as it can get.

>check engine light came on after

Well, it is a hyundai

Saab 95 aero
Pic related, it was my ex’s. Took it on a road trip and hit 125 in Nevada

Got about 115 driving overnight on the insterstate. Doesn't get over about 105 at the altitude I'm at normally

i reckon i can get it to 200 on a level straight, just need to find one... also its in england rotting away in the rain cause I'm currently homeless and on holiday in brazil (:sad:)

That's sad. Reminds me of my friend who used to own (well I guess he still technically owns) a nissan cefiro (not sure of the year, early 90's I think) running an RB25DET. He took out drifting and accidentally drove it off the side of a bank.

There was no substantial damage to it other than some dents to the body and a cracked windscreen, but the car stayed right-way-up throughout the ordeal and the engine still ran without any problems or worrying sounds afterwards.

However, to say it was stuck is understating it. There was no way we could pull it out, so...we just left it there. We came back months later and it was still there, hidden underneath heaps of vegetation and growth from the surrounding trees. That was years ago though. If it's still there, it's probably almost part of the natural flora there now...

This desu

But shit sorry to hear you're homeless user. I've been homeless a few times, and every god-damned time it's managed to be during the winter. Hope things work out for you.

thanks bud, its just that i spent my life savings on becoming a commercial pilot and dont really have any family so im just waiting for them to send me my licenses so i can look for a job and get a place to live... at least the future looks pretty nice :)
heres a singer interior to make up for the mini feels thread

Youd be surprised man my first time was in a 84 firebird with a 305 and a 700r4

It's very nice. I'm not even religious, but I can imagine dying, then jesus himself coming to pick up my soul to take me to heaven, pulling up next to me, opening the passenger door and saying flatly while wearing his aviator's sunglasses "hop in".

This thing I guess. Long back highway, got to about 125-130. Tried to stop, it shit the seals out of the passenger rear brake cylinder and shot my fluid all over the road. Took me like 3 miles to slow down.

Fjord Fuckus SES autotragic

the limiter was exactly 110mph. felt stable. did this for about 3 minutes straight on an empty highway at 4am with my lights off. was trying to get home before parents woke up.

My first car, recently sold it to a friend who crashed it less than 3 weeks later. RIP MX5 you were too good for this world.

my ford edge has a limiter at that speed too, was fun though

Dunno man, 140 hp, less aerodynamic, 2.41 rear. and a TH350. Wouldn't have been surprised to learn it wheezed out before 100.

That's sad. I remember about a year ago there was guy in my town who drunk drove an RX7 at about 150kmph just adjacent to the city center, before crashing and flipping it in a nearby suburban neighbourhood. The car was beautiful but so damaged there was no question about it being written off right there and then.

A friend of mine was even lucky enough to be walking down the street he crashed it on when it happened and saw it go up in the air and flip it. Apparently he had to actually pull the guy out of the car, all covered in blood, because the guy was a mixture of too drunk and too hurt from the crash to be able to climb out himself.

That guy pretty much became a social pariah overnight. Understandable, I mean he was doing 150kmph in a crowded neighbourhood and fucked up the majority of someone's front yard when he crashed. Pretty lucky he was the only person who got hurt.

Fastest I've gone is 102 mph or so in my sisters 2002 saab 9-5 aero

My car (1992 ford ranger, 4 cylinder) only has a speedo that goes to 85 mph (though I think I've taken it to 95ish).

Volvo v70 T5

My friend managed to crash it at less than 20mph and spun into a tree pulling away from some traffic lights...

Oh man, really? That's just sad. RIP lil mazda

'13 Ford Focus, my first car and only car, and unironically the fastest car I've driven.

p71, it was very underwhelming

2006 Toyota Tundra

I bet you were 'focus'ing pretty hard on the road there user

215kph, 2008 Mini Cooper John cooper works clubman. Man I lived that car. My mom had a thing for fast minus when I was in high school. She had a 2005 convertible jcw and a 2008 jcw clubman. Man those were awesome cars to learn how to drive stick on. Now I drive a mk3 rs, hot hatch’s rum in the family. My mom actually just bought another cooper s recently.

04 Passat TDI

I don't know if it was even capable of going faster. This was on I-90 in Wyoming.

1995 Volvo 850 turbo. I miss this car

Toyota Cressida. I would say my ninja 250 since i have hit 110 on the speedometer but some have issues with the speedos reading fast so i won't count it

a boat

R53 JCW here, I feel you bro.
The weight of the steering, the set up of the pedals for heel-toe, the LSD.
It's like a tarmac FWD rally car

1991 Integra ls
got past 180km/h, but would not pull past 195. sounded glorious while doing it.

My current impreza is limited at 180km/h. shit sucks.

One of these with the 2.5 litre diesel. It was terrifying

Continuing on to 290 indicated.
TL1000s ECU flash/airbox mod and Yoshi cans.

In Japan, they have laws in place so that all domestic vehicles have to have a limiter put on the engine so it can't go over 180kmph. So if the car then gets exported to another country, unless someone decides to have the limiter removed, it will still have it.

I was talking to a lady a while ago who told me she bought a japanese import, discovered it had a limiter, took it off and now she can get it up to 230kmph. Can't remember what kind of car it was though.

Are you fucking me?
>be me
>17
>just bought my first car, really well kept 7 series from old relative.
>1994 740i
>did 110mph on the freeway nearly the first month I had it.
>sold it in a year

Similar situation in my first car in high school a long time ago in one of these. I don't know why I did it. You fucking felt the speed in those old muscle cars.

2003 Audi A4 1.8T

The DOHC 1.9 is actually a pretty solid 4 cylinder. 124/122 isn't bad for a NA economy engine. I rev the piss out of mine all the time for keks.

First time hitting speed limiter was in my Silverado topping out at 100mph before the computer quit feeding the engine gas. Probably a good thing (no airbags probably and idk that the seatbelt would do it's job. Still. I'd worry more about others in a crash like that than myself). I've had one more vehicle since then (my 2nd vehicle ever) which tops out at 115 electronically and seems to have a bit more in it. R50 pathy.

Fastest things I've rode/driven since then
Buddy had a Pontiac G5 and had it at 145mph on the highway before he took his foot off the gas

And when I was 16 I took my granddad's 350z on a joyride and got just under 160 on it in 6th with more to give.

94 corolla

How'd that work out?

2007 Chevrolet Trailblazer

2005 Commodore SV6

Felt good man. Still need to get hektik and break 200.

>tfw nearly broke 170 in the '09 Kia Rio I owned before

My outback shitbox managed to go beyond the speedo, somewhere around 205Kph by how far it went above the final line on it, it was surprisingly stable at that speed too.
>going to friend's place
>long highway drive
>nearing the end
>night on perfect Indiana roads
>floor it and let the autotradgic get to the redline in 4th gear
>get to 6.2K and held it for a while
it was fun though I pussied out because I had no idea what it would take to do a roll over

1991 Toyota Crown RS 3.0, all engine management is still the stock JDM computer so its governed to 180kmh

shits gonna stay that way, most you can do on the highway where i am is a measly 110kmh and anything more than 50kmh over the speed limit including photo is a mandatory court date, dont do that shit anymore

VW Tiguan of my driving instructor. was the third lesson

2003 Ram 1500
Only just, it was on limiter.

Hit 130 on the interstate in an '03 accord. Auto v6. Was scary as fuck because i had to pass a prius and slow down in time for my exit. Oh and i wasnt licensed.

r33 gtr, not mine though

2000 Nissan Maxima.
Was my mom's car at the time, I felt like I had to do it because the shitbox civic I owned at the time would top out at 107-108mph and I needed to finally hit the 110 mark. Didn't go much past that because it wasn't my car.

This pos 99 neon. Any faster than 180 the car would shake itself off the road.

Matty?

Somehow this thing did 130mph
Ill probably never try that again

That sounds terrifying

This thing. Honda Prelude, 1997. It was during winter with rear summer tires and all-season front tires which I didn't know at that moment as I just got the car. God I was lucky nothing bad happened.

wtf dude were you going downhill with the wind behind your back??

first time i went over 110MPH i was in my RX-7 in HS

Neons are kinda stout for that era of shitbox. Even the base has 130 hp.

2007 Buick Lucerne

Hit 140 (I only have 140 on the dash) on the freeway.

Opel Zafira 2.0 DTI, almost hit 200 km/h

190kmh, was going for 200 but then someone was coming the opposite way. Very smooth all the way to 190 only felt fast above 160. Rated top speed is 220 but it could go faster

Mk4 jetta 1.8t went 120 and then speed governor stopped it.

It's now tuned out but I'm afraid to take it that fast again due to tickets and I have a lot more money in the car than before. Would break my heart to lose it

And she hit 220

2002 Accord V6 on the I-5 in the middle of nowhere. Got up to 132 MPH

Audi A3 with that color, 2.0TDI 140PS

Record is 164 MPH / 264 KPH in my current car.

2013 370Z sport, in Kansas

My Saab 9000.
Steering wheel starts to shake around 200 km/h, it's not very much fun at that point.

Similar story with a buddy and his mom's three series. After 120 everything got sketchy. The guy has balls but really can't drive well.

Evo X

2003 madza 6. had a terrrible ford v6 that died after 60k

I hit 115 in my 92 Miata chasing a turbo golf. The front end gets really light at those speeds.

'05 convertible Mini Cooper s for me. I just bought the car and was following my friend who took me there. He was going ~100. Second time I ever drove manual too; that was fun.

I really want that car
