#62808 You will still need to find out what gear ratios you "would be" using.

Theres a massive difference in between a VX trans with that final drive and an Si trans with that final drive.

So even on paper you will still need to decided what combo you would use.

#62818 jesus christ this is such a simple question.i dont care about gear combos or what would be good for the track or roll raceing.i dont give a fuck

Holy shit man, its not a life or death situation. We're not trying to tell whether it would be roll racing or track, we are just trying to help and figure out what else is behind the final drive. You'll have tons of torque in the low end but it will soon taper off. Instead of being an ass while we are trying to help you, try doing some research and see where we are coming from. Its very hard to determine a top speed if there is nothing behind the equation.
Its not just a round about number, there are alot of factors to place in before we say, you can go up to 166 MPH as long as your not drag limited.
Now that we know you have a type-r trans it will be alot easier.
