Default Top speed in each gear?

I've spent the last 1.5 hours trying to find out what the maximum speed in each gear the S2000 can go. Can someone please let me know. Thanks!

Thanks for this link, but the speeds on this chart dont seem correct for my 03 s2000. I can only hit 62mph in 2nd, and about 86 in 3rd ( I cant remember exactly). According to this chart, I should be able to go 68 mph in second . Is my speedo is 6mph slower than actual speed or is this chart is wrong?

Can someone else let me know?

dose the speed at the end of each gear have any relation with the usual wear of the clutch? Because i remember when i first got my car, i could hit 69 mph in second gear b4 redline, now its like low 60's....
