btw how is the car in terms of nvh levels, you must have fabricated custom engine mounts, does the vibration from the engine creep in

and do get your car for the next team-bhp meet in delhi

The car has very low nvh levels with window closed you cann't hear the engine

and the engine mounting are from tata indica

i regulary venture in the 150kmph band in my scorpio CRDe and it can definitely go further.. its just that the overtly light steering doesnt help your confidence

wanderlust · 15th March 2007, 11:52

I did an indicated 140 kmph regularly on my 2003 Zen Lxi. Helped by gravity once barely touched 160.

devilvtec · 15th March 2007, 11:57

sad-damn · 19th March 2007, 12:53

I need to update my top speed to 180.
Finnaly got my swift to hit this number. Had a little help from a friend in terms of encouragement.

also please note, no pics... crack photographer with N73 was too moved to take decent pics as proof

Around 155 kph in my Indica (1999, Petrol), OEM tires. This was many years back in the Kolkata - Shantiniketan Expressway. Now the poor car struggles to touch 110........ on a downslope!!!

Touched 160 kph in my dad's Aveo, did not try to go beyond as Dad was glaring at me!!!

gigy · 28th March 2007, 13:41

after a wheel balance went on a test ride on panvel road, managed 165kmph. could not go faster as was driving with one hand on steering and another on phone camera. nice cross winds was pushing car sideways also. need a good spoiler to keep it on ground. baleno is too light to take it faster without supports.
