Hello Guys, I was just wondering, What is your speed when your in 5th Gear and doing 3.5 RPM, On a b16b Engine Stock, Other speed with mods would be nice too, Thankyou.

At 3.5 RPM , 5th Gear , I do about 118 km/h. I think my car is losing some power.
 
having more or less power wont affect the speed at a certain rpm
only a change of gearing tyre size or wheel size can do so:)
 
sounds about right to me..will try to remember to look on the way hone.

but like rice said..i dont think power would make a difference.
 
Yeah thats about right speed for that rpm with the gearing of a s4c g.box
 
Stock EK9 3400rpm = 100kmph.

4.785FD = 3700rpm @ 100kmph.
 
My speedo says about 60mph at 3500RPM. Feels slow though, I think my the converter is off..

Right..Even if you change tyres the speedo will still have the same readings but the real speed will be affected.This is because the speed sensor is located to the gearbox and not near the wheels.
 
Doens't really matter too much except for 0-100km/h figures; you cant translate them directly from 0-60mph figures. You have to add .1 or .2 seconds. But lets not go offtopic too much :p

Huge difference mate.

E46 M3 is quoted 0-60mph in 4.7secs while the 0-100kmph time is 5.2secs

EK9 will do 0-60 in about 6secs, but 0-100 is well into 6.7+
 
Checked mine yesterday. At exactly 3500rpm in 5th gear she was doing 62/63 mph.
