Top Speed of your Mark

[MrScalia]

I know they got revlimiter and all but some of you had that fixed .
So what is the top speed you done in you Mark VIII??

 

[Dern Humpus]

My limiter was 122, I only went that fast because I knew there was a limiter somewhere and was curious.

 

[94m5]

157 in my 95

 

[Lincolnpimpin]

I some how got mine up to 125 ever since only 120.

(Hey Mike what you pay for your cobra intake and air intake?)

 

[94m5]

It was in the car when I bought it. I put 350 bucks in powdercoat on it a couple weeks ago tho.

 

[BlackMark8Li]

I went over 150 in my 93, So far with the 96 I've only been up to 140 give or take some mph.

 

[67Continental]

i've hit my rev limiter at 135 many times.

 

[jdlmkviii]

Only about 120 a few times but never hit the limiter... Wouldn't doubt that it could still go WAY faster though. Faster I take it, the stronger it feels.

 

[MonsterMark]

Based on rpm, wheel diameter and gear ratio, 155 was my best, albiet on a downhill run. '93

 

[67Continental]

i get CRAZY vibration at that speed tho.

 

[94m5]

i get CRAZY vibration at that speed tho.

Have you replaced the driveshaft?

 

[shiryu0]

130mph, the first day i got it :monkey: that was awesome.....

 

[JoeyLincolnMK8]

i got upto 130 on 3 different occasions. for some reason, the car feels like it wants to go more, it is scary sometimes!

 

[67Continental]

Have you replaced the driveshaft?

nope.

 

[Lincolnpimpin]

130mph, the first day i got it :monkey: that was awesome.....

Ya I got to 125 first night to only 5 mph fast than my conti I had but sure as hell got up there faster. :Beer

 

[Lincolns Own]

110 but i wasnt trying to get it up there

 

[Lincolnpimpin]

I remember my first race in the Mark just got on the interstate and I punched I thought I was doing 90 NOPE 110 already it Smerfing awsome. Guy in his Integra didn't even have a chance to hit the petal it seems.

 

[94m5]

nope.

Thats the reason for your High speed vibration.

 

[98LSC32V]

150+mph on the dyno 3 times.

 

[94m5]

Is that what it shut down at, or all the higher you took it? What chip are you running?

 

[hotrodlincoln93]

150 + on this longgg road in the woods..... scary fast lol

 

[67Continental]

Thats the reason for your High speed vibration.

yeah - plus i have a slightly loose upper control arm bushing.

 

[brentalan]

How do you guys know you were going 150 besides the math that MonsterMark did?

 

[brentalan]

Fastest I went was yesterday on Route 80 on the way home. I was closing in on 140. (Smoked an Eclipse

 

[mespock]

I've done about 133 on my 93 Mark VIII then let off...

I've only taken my 95 to 120..
