Anyone here tasted honda civic fb top speed here?thanks.

1.8 has gone 205km/h. Not sure if it is the top speed.

Give the gear ratios, tire size and engine spec for torque/hp with RPM and you can easily calculate it.

That will be the theoretical max speed, if you have the power you can reach the speed. It's quite accurate to real life.

You should ask him if it's possible or theoretical?

Anyways, whatever it can do. It's not something everyone can hold onto for the entire length of the NSE or something like that. It is quite irrelevant and most of the time there won't be enough road in city centre to get to that top speed... The last few tenth's above 150~160 would most probably take an eternity to reach.

That being said, it should be quite high because i encountered some kind "let me through" even by a City (GM3) while getting about at 160. So, the Civic should even be better than that logically speaking and assuming there is still more left in that City to explore.

213 km/h for FD and FB with R18A engine

How about altis vs civic which one more powerful if both also 1.8.thanks.

If you look at the tested times in the Table above, you would notice that the Honda Civic 2.0 is slower than the Toyota Altis 2.0 for 0-100km/h, but if 80-120km/h, the Honda Civic 2.0 is faster than Toyota Altis 2.0.

So to your question which is more powerful, it depends on what speed you are looking at. If acceleration from standstill, the Altis is more powerful. If accelerating from mid-speed, the Civic is more powerful.

Top speed, no comment, but usually top speed is overrated. Effortless acceleration at any given speed is more useful to gauge the performance or power of any vehicle.

why does the top speed of a Civic matter?

No one is ever gonna reach that anyway, even if they want to, it would take ages and a very very very long empty road to do it. Not to mention it has to be dead straight, or accidents might occur. so what's the point?

You will be lucky if you have the stretch of long roads, seen an FD2 hitting >240km/h....around 243 and very slowly climbing. Not sure about the FD1

Civic FD Type R can hit around 260km/h-270km/h

Syiok sendiri.

You cannot fully utilize the capabilities of an iphone, why own it?

so early already day-dreaming?

Count yourself
Typically Honda AT car are geared to hit maximum speed at maximum rpm of 2nd last gear

Syiok sendiri also count as day dreaming?

Agree with this.

Well note that most of the time speedo reading is overstated and can be as much as 10kph over the actual speed.
I know someone who had reached 260 on his FD2R but his one was already modified to make about 30-35% more power than stock. Even so that was on the speedometer reading which is overstated most of the time, and the highway he tested got downhill some more. So I doubt bone stock FD2R can go so fast.

Not just Honda but with many other cars as well, especially those that have 6 speed (so top speed is actually attainable using 5th). But for older AT with only 4 speed, many reach top speed at the 4th gear.

Seriously FD2 can hit >240km/h with only 150+ horsepower? Even stock Golf GTI with 2.0 Turbo 200+ HP tops out around that speed..

How about with 1.8s fb ?

FD2 5 spd AT ratio is freaking long.....that's why and yes a friend's car hit that speed @_@

No idea on that, use the speed calculator to get theoretical top speed of every gear and your max rpm plus the width of your tyres and gear ratios then you will know

Best is to just use the speed calculator and get the theoretical speed as reference
Most of them are limited by their gear ratios after modifying their engines

Don't know what is FD2 but I don't think the Civic 2.0 can even touch 230km/h with a horsepower of 155PS. I would expect the top speed of the Civic 2.0 to be around 215km/h, perhaps touching 220km/h on a downhill stretch of road.

If the car is modified with some turbo kit then perhaps it can go above 240km/h.
