That Eunos is a wreck man, it's falling apart, and the inside is flooded with water, no battery, flat tyres no seat belts and the guy at the sale wanted 1.2 Mil saying it's a V6. Ha ha ha. And ole Mr. Pericles here still likes it.

It had certainly deteorated big time from when I last posted to the time max and I went to see it a couple of weeks ago. Maybe our visit motivated the guy to fix it a bit before putting it on display again, coz max said all he was willing to offer was 8, considering the shape it was in Anyway, after that last visit, the willing to pay price went all the way down Maybe if he fixes it, I would still like that engine.

Vtechman · September 5, 2006

Ok I thought that I should ask you speedoholics on how fast you've gone? Doesn't matter if you were driving or simply sitting in the passengers seat. I will start with myself. I have hit 169kmph while taking my Honda EK3 VI out on a spin.......... Ok shoot now and beat that if you can!?! Pls be honest alrite?

ashan · September 5, 2006

Machang... I believe this SURVEY was done before... and it included some scary speeds too ...Maybe the Moderators can correct me if I'm wrong....

check out the old forum's link it has go the real postings :lol ... anway 169 ks has been as ez one to beat

Ministry · September 5, 2006

well i have gone 150MPH in a modified RX7

thats like 240 kmph

Blazin · September 5, 2006

I think the survey should be split into high way driving abroad and Sri lanka into two separate sections.

I've done 140mph on a standard Civic Type-R. But that was around 2am on a straight piece of motorway.

It would be pretty difficult to reach that sort of speed in Sri Lanka.

ya thats the main problem, and i have seen many cars tuching the 180 mark bt those Modified Ecu's Remove the Cut off so i can feel the speed incresing, bt cant see the actual speed cus the speedometer stops at 180, so its very difficult to say the Actual speed bt i saw some cars with Digital Speedometers

Me In Passenger Seat

Thivankas DC5 180+

Nigel Type R ( With NOS ) 180+

Nigel WRX 180+

Nirosh WRX 180+

Nirosh SIR ( Type R Spec ) 180+

Mark Ceres GT ( i think 180+ bt the speedometer isnt working )

Nishantha EK3 160+

Me Driving

My Accent Ecu Speed limit cut off at 155

Tru dat. That is annoying specially when u have a whole gear left

Well, dunno if it was restricted, but the speedo is overm so what is the point?

Andrew_GTR · September 5, 2006

Fastest Ever was in a Porsche 911 Turbo (2003 Model) at 252 Km/h (in the passenger seat) in Tokyo, Japan... You dont even feel the speed on those motorways to be honest... we could have been doing 150 and it would have felt the same... hehe.. at one point we were doing 180 km/h and a Porshe Gemballa Edition GT3 went flying past us as if we were standing still... will never forget the sound of that car as it went past us.. unbelievable...

dhp · September 5, 2006

80Km/h......on parliament Rd with 8 guys in a Daihastu Charade with AC on!! - Top that and U'll have my respect!!

How - all the seats were removed except driver's seat (for interior painting) + liquid courage! (back in 1995)

shamitz · September 6, 2006

169MPH down the katu main straight at 12000rpm on 4th gear on a 1999 Yamaha R1 (Modified)..... not enough distance to get up to 6th gear .. so I dont know how much my R1 would max-out at.
