tinopak ako kanina pag uwi ko and took egg_white up to 110 mph (190+ kmh) on a deserted straight highway.

i guess one advantage of working late is that you have the expressway to yourself

155 kph for a 2.5L engine? ung ISUZU 2.5 LS namin (before the fuego model) only can hit maximum of 120 kph, wala ng isasagad..

but our DMAX can hit 160 kph in no time. of course dapat lang because turbocharged na 'to..

our stock 4d56 equipped L200 can hit 140kph. our stock isuzu 2.5 LS can hit 150kph but it does need quite a stretch because of the oversized tires.

I think it must be the drag effect of all the chin spoilers, side skirts, rear spoilers that Honda places on the car as 'stock' accessories to differentiate it from the look of the standard 1.3 Jazz. I was the only one in the car by the way and my only luggage was my scuba diving gear.

That VTEC engine has a lot of power in it. And to think naka-CVT pa yan with a light weight, alloy engine, it should perform better. Nasasakal lang yan with the stock intake and exhaust.

Looking around I saw this site: http://www.honestjohn.co.uk/road_tests/index.htm?id=34

As if that wasn't enough, Honda has also come up with an entirely new chain-cam engine for the car. Called i-DSI, it uses two valves and two spark plugs per cylinder to provide a combination of low speed torque, performance and economy that no one else can match either. Just look at the figures: zero to sixty in 11.7 seconds, top speed 106 mph and a combined economy figure of 49.6mpg.

I can't believe it, bakit limited siya to that? Sayang yon ah. And mind you this is the i-DSi version kahit 1.4L.

One point to remember (again). Stock speedometers aren't entirely accurate.

The best way to estimate (estimate lang, because even this method is inaccurate) is to get your rpm at top speed, then calculate your actual speed by factoring in gear ratios and tire height.

The only really accurate way is with an inertial or GPS testing device that plots your actual speed.

But likely, the bodykits and the tall upright body limited the Jazz's top end. Weather and temperature also play a big role. Cold weather causes thicker air, which causes more drag. Hot weather negatively affects power. The Jazz, with its tall body and tight engine bay, will suffer from too much of either.

The shorter Vios and various 1.5 liter sedans, with their lower greenhouses, can hit around 180+ km/h.

Oops... read the post again... CVT: The CVT models are speed-limited to protect the transmission. Honda's small CVTs can't take very much torque or very high speeds.

My car's top speed varies about 10-20 km/h depending on the temperature. Because I have an open cone filter and headers, hot weather limits the top speed a lot.
