It is in the manual but from recolection I think it is about 68mph. Don't quote me on that though.

In the name of science (and the fact that I was trading in the car the same week) I discovered that in my old MY00 Turbo it would do 67 in second gear before the rev limiter kicked in.

Our MY98 was about a registered 67ish...which means 64...

Sti7 Type UK
2nd Gear Ratio 2.375 or 7.8MPH per 1,000 RPM
That equates to 58MPH in 2nd at redline dropping to 5,500RPM in 3rd. 3rd will take you to 78MPH at redline.
Redline is 7,500RPM.
Hope this helps
Steve

D,
What problems
? If you mean the car, then that wasn't a problem, in fact it was a blessing in disguise - I have a new car and woman all down to that accident...
LOL

Because I can then tell you what it SHOULD have read and not what you IMAGINED it read...
