Really quick one -

HOw fast would I be going, doing 5,500rpm in 5th gear? (top gear)

All of the drive train is standard bar the clutch.

I can't reply till this afternoon, but I will be checking email replies.

Thanks guys

About 230/235

I have hit 251 at 6300rpm

nismo speedo and greddy full auto timer to verify they are very accurate

easiest way to work out what speed it would be is drive along in 5th at 2750 rpm. double the speed that you are doing and that is what speed you would be doing at 5500rpm.

i had a 180sx and it had pretty much the same ratios as the skyline, but had 400rpm extra to redline. it would hit the speed limiter at about 7200rpm in 4th which was 190kmh on the clock, and it hit it at about 5000 in 5th

just went out for a spin and according to my speedo and tacho i was doing 90kmh at 2500 rpm, so that means 5500rpm would be 200kmh (approx 35-36km/h per 1000rpm). but if someone with an accurate pfc or something similar could do the same thing and get an accurate km/h per 1000rpm would make all the calculations easy.
