Stock, my '94 could reach an indicated 128 mph. I'm guessing the true
speed was circa 122. Until I got Konis, though, it was less than stable
over 110.
FWIW, 110 mph comes up fairly quickly. Then you shift into 5th, and
further progress is glacial. Nonexistent, if headed even slightly uphill.
But there are plenty of modified Miatas that are rpm limited, with a top
speed that depends on their gearing and whether the rev limiter was
"adjusted."
