I have a 1999 Civic DX Coupe, and i was wondering if there is a top speed limiter on it. It gets up to 95 no problem, but sometimes it seems like there is something that doesnt let me go any faster than that. I seem to remember getting it up to 115 a few times, but now whenever i get up to just about 95 i cant get any higher. Anyone know whats the deal?

 

MY 98 EX COUPE IS THE SAME WAY. I BEEN TO 120MPH RACING MY BRO BUT A COUPLE OF TIMES I JUST COULDNT GET PAST 100MPH. DUNNO WHY

 

it is called a lack of power

 

Maybe a windy day, strong headwinds mean a lot if you dont have the power.

 

there is no governor on those cars.

 

yes there is it is 120mph on both.

 

SUCK IT DUDE

 

Why the hate, it's the truth. You are asking why it is hard to get over 100mph and I told you. It is a 92 to 128hp econo car not a Corvette.

 

My 00 Civic EX hits the gov. at 120 mph, I know because I have hit it a couple of times and it completely quits and stops, almost like a rev limiter sound. I also agree with Marty basically stock single cam motors (like mine) are not exactly 350ci torque monsters, I would like to think they are, but in all reality they are not. These engines don't like to move the car very fast after around 80-90 mph. It took my car like 16 seconds to go from 110-120 mph, lol.

 

Yea!!! Caps lock gets your point across much better!!
