top speed
so what's the fastest you've gone in your frs so far?
and can it really top 160mph according to the dash? |
i hit 132 in 6th (might have been slightly downhill)...
|
I've only gone 115 so far
|
90
|
110
|
Top speed spec is 147mph I think. I get scared on these skinny little prius tires around 120 though.
|
On Youtube there's a BRZ in Germany that hits 140MPH an the autobahn. To get over 140 you probably need forced induction.
|
125mph with the windows down the passenger seat belt doesn't like that much lol thats why i keep it bucked now

120. A "riced out" G35X was tailgating me from a residential area all the way to an empty 6 lane highway and refused to go around me and revved up any chance he could. Looked at the speedo at the end and nearly shat myself. Haven't gone over 60 since then.
|
I went 210 km last Night
Not the best road the car got a bit nervous, so did I for that matter |
Hit 100mph just so I could see the digital speedo show three digits without using KPH! BTW, on the topic of speedos, when going over 80mph has anyone noticed that their analog and digital start going off by a MPH or two?
|
109mph. It was slow moving up... I dont think I can hit 120..
|
78mph i think, no more than that. still breaking her in
|
120 at the long straight of Texas World Speedway while running the 2.9 clockwise direction.

I've hit 125, but ran out of road to keep pushing it higher.

^^^^^^pretty sure there is nothing that any law enforcement officer can do about anybody saying how fast they have gone in their car on a forum. As a matter of fact you could say it to the officer's face and nothing could be done. You have to be caught in the act.
|
this is correct!
|
As soon as I get it back I'm going to attempt to drive the needle past 160. GoPro attached to the car though, no taking pictures one-handed at those speeds.
My 300whp 370Z had no problem doing 160. My FR-S has more power so it shouldn't have a problem. But I've done 135 so far... Maybe mine will be the fastest top speed in the states if I break 140-150?? |

The thing that you should worry about as far as photographic/video proof of is your warranty. I know Toyota/Scion/Subaru use and troll these forums, not for these purposes but if you have video/photos of you possibly "abusing" your vehicle, they can certainly use this evidence to void any warranties that you have on your vehicle. This includes track time, modifications, burnouts, donuts, etc. If these videos/photos show you and/or your license plate or some sort of identifier then when you bring in your car because the clutch is slipping then they can use it against a warranty claim. And just FYI, changing your tranny fluid might be a good idea for the simple fact that some of the metal shards will be discarded in the change over. Some places (MITSUBISHI) will deny a warranty for something as trivial as that. |

Let's get back on topic, does anyone know the fastest they've seen any other BRZ/FR-S/GT86 go? I haven't seen faster than 135 yet.
|
There's actually a video of somebody doing 153 mph. Gonna try and find the video.
EDIT:sorry it was 147 Here's the link: [ame="http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=g2e6L2v4Tm0"]2013 Subaru BRZ top speed run - YouTube[/ame] |

I have only been up to 126MPH. I think I was on a track.....right?
Anyway, there is a dyno speed test that shows redline in 6th is 169MPH. Of course you don't have the resistance but it was still pretty cool. |
106 (170kph) on track - so no law breaking there!
Would have been quicker but kept stuffing up the sweeper into the front straight as I'm not a very good driver!!! |
I hit 80MPH a few times, but only because I was on roads that had a 70MPH speed limit and in Georgia 10 over is usually fine on the interstate.
I'm not an asshole that is trying to kill myself or someone else, so I won't go any faster than that on a public road. (Unless of course I'm on that 85mph highway in Texas in which case I would do 85) |

Got pulled over in that '00 Civic one night for a minor speeding infraction(57 in a 45, speed zone changed from 55) and the cop immediately started asking me how much I enjoyed the car because he has a silver '99 Si. During our conversation he asked what was the fastest I've gotten it up to and I told him, because as the others have said, you have to be seen by a cop breaking the law. Video however is different. A cop watches the video, they can come get you. Happened to that Lamborghini guy in Arizona I believe. |
uh, 125
|
I went 88 once.... Then I disappeared leaving only a pair of flaming skid marks O.O

I managed at least 115 on the front straight at Willow Springs. I was still accelerating but wasn't looking at the speedo since I was watching for my braking point.
