lol the ap2 won't go to 160. it's mechanically limited to about 151. in other words. if you redline 6th gear, you will be doing about 151. and since you have no 7th gear, you can't go any faster. lol

 

haha, no you missed what i said.

my point was the same as i stated above. the ap2's gearing limitation is about 151mph in 6th gear. redline 6th gear gives you 151. how does it get to 155 without driving off a cliff? lol

 

maybe if it were racing a scion to the edge to see who would fall faster?

 

unless it's an xB.

 

IIRC, the AP2 is redlined(8000rpm) limited to app. 151mph, but don't forget the rev limit is 8200rpm, so 156mph is possible.

 

Having 4.44s, 275/40/17s, and over 400 hp, I was able to hit 156 mph very quickly racing with the top down. Beware, high speeds with the top down can result in severe ear pain and damage.

I am considering the Mazda 3.636 gears that allow a gear limited top end of 199mph with only 9200 rpm. The true benefit is cruising at 70 mph while turning only 3000 rpm.

 

154mph to be exact.

 

Your Gran Turisimo car doesn't count

 

Do you have any 3 to 4% downhill sections that are straight and go on for 20 miles or so? Although I'm more than certain that "I" wouldn't want to be in an S2000 at ~200 mph.

It "would" be interesting to see what kind of fuel economy you could get out of that gearing.

Drive Safe,

as much power as he's pushing, i dont think he would need 20 miles to get to 200mph. lol
