and i still had about 700rpms left to claim before hitting redline.. so if you think its not possible to go that fast in our 2.3's... kiss my booty!

....then my Maxima must be capable of doing 160mph in stock trim.

I do not care what your speedo indicates, the 2.3CL is NOT a 140mph car without some noteable mods.

And "kiss my booty"? I hope you did not sacrifice too many brain cells coming up with that one.....although it would explain a lot.

Even if that Speedo is accurate you crawled for around 30+ seconds to get from 105-140. I've never pushed my car past 125 but my car can get to 125 fairly easily and a helluva lot faster than what you recorded. A G35 was probably as fast as my car when it was in stock form and I'm pretty certain it would probably go 105-140 alot faster than 30 seconds.

& BTW my roommate does have a 2.3 Manual Accord which i believe is lighter as well as I had a 2000 4 Cyl Accord before my CL, that car struggled to get to 120.
