It gets scary real quick tho..First off your speedo needle is waayy on the wrong side of the speedo , and second, you want to go faster, but at the same time you also know that you're running out of room real fast I always tell ppl that I'd need a landing runway to even hit VTEC on my 5th hahaha..
So what tranny are you running now bro? I really can't wait to get my hands on shorter ratio tranny...My friend has an H22 with the H23 tranny, and the car just pulls so much different..Much harder I should say

I HATE long gears tho Yeah you get top speed, but what's the point? Like I said, I can't even redline 4th, 'coz none of the local highways are long enough to let me do so But given the space tho, I'm sure I can reach that no problem. 4th gear in VTEC still pulls pretty hard, 5th gear also pulls once I get past 4000RPM Whether my car will survive going 200+mph or not, that I will never know

i have the car for more then a year now and i never finished my 4th red line...gears really too long..not really fun driving whit long gears...can't even do any shifting..it's like i am driving auto..just drop in 3rd on the highway and go all the way to 190km/h...and i am still wondering after a year what speed would i be in 4th 8000rpm.My signature works perfectly fine.

i'm not sure of the actual speed i've gone that time but i was doing 180km'h in 3rd at about 8000rpm , 4th at 220/8000rpm and for the 5th the speedo stops at 220 but the nidle was far away from it .maybe 250km'h to make sure.
modification done:
onorthodox light weigh pully
light weigh flyweel
ferrea racing valves

for what its worth, i had my lx sedan up to 190km/h late one night and it was still pulling (100% stock). stock tires/wheels everything. i think it could do 200 now that its lowered (less drag?), few bolt ons and a little lighter.
THIS CAR DOES NOT BELONG TO ME SO STOP GIVING ME COMPLIMENTS!! although it is quite nice....

Originally posted by NAiL05Your speedo and tach must be way off. I guess I willl give you the answer...Assuming you run a 205/55/15 rim because any bigger would show an unfeasible speed for an accord of our year....WIth your accord trans which would be the F trans (using the gearing in the transaxle info on here) at 8000 RPM you would be sitting at close to 200mph using both the lx/dx or ex trans....Which shows your kms off by a lot. To be exact...DX/LX = 198.54 EX = 204.34. You either do NOT have an accord trans or you have a closer geared trans. With those mods you wouldnt even get close to 200mph factoring in drag/wind resistance and so on UNLESS you were on a bad ass downhill with parts not flying off.
3rd gear I get 100km/h @ 4600rpm and 120km/h in 3rd at 5600rpm - thats about 20km/h for 1000rpm = 180km/h @ 8600rpm - I must admit that is pretty close (comparing to my M2B4 trans)
I get 5th gear on the limiter 210km/h @ 6250rpm

Or you can just use a gear ratio calculator which will give you an exact number without factoring in wind resistance and so on.
