2.3l Cefiro RPM performance info?

henfeb SG

I am a newbie from Indonesia, thinking of getting a a 2005 2.3l Nissan

Teana/Cefiro or 2.4l Honda Accord.

I would be grateful if you guys could tell me :

what is Teana/Cefiro's RPM in 4th gear @ 100km/h?
RPM in 3rd gear @ 100km/h?

RPM in 4th gear @ 120km/h(95m/h)?

I found out that the Accord goes 120km/h @ 3000 RPM in 5th gear.
@ 3700 RPM in 4th

Hopefully from the info i can figure out if the engine will be noisy @

high speeds.I drive the freeways alot & would love a car that drives

relaxed @ 120km/h & has plenty of power to accelerate for overtaking.

is the car stable @ high speeds?

currently driving a 95 C200...130hp..absolutely pathetic.he2.noisy &

totally underpowered.

thanks alot!

however i feel that cefiro provides a very smooth and safe ride whereas compared to the accord yeah bro. Surprised

for comfort for sure is the teana/cefiro jm230. the power is also there, no worry about the petrol the power to weight ratio is good for this model. unlike the A33 older model. which is less power to weight ratio.

unless u compare with the EuroR the other JDM accord is about the same or worst then the JM230.

thanks for the feed back guys.

My girlfriend,not a car lover, saw a Cefiro for the 1st time on the road & was totally blown away by its elegant shape. I think that says alot Smile .

I was actually trying to find out whether the Accord or the Cefiro is a quieter highway crusier.So I posted if anybody/any cefiro owner knows what is the RPM on the speedometer when the car is crusing at 120km/h?

I drive the 230 (blue). Noise insulation is not very good for this car. When it rains, you feel like under a zinc roof. Road noise makes radio listening impossible above 110kph.

Petrol consumption is bad but I think in proportion to the engine capacity it is not too bad. Of course cannot compare to the small cars.

Comfort also so-so. The standard tires are terrible and trying to change them to better ones quite challenging. Now I am on Michelin Primacy. Not too bad but still noisy.

My 2cents worth.

wah from your comments,it seemed like you regretted buying your cefiro?

i thought the cefiro is a quiet & comfortable car.
Hmm...or are all japanese cars built with thin metal sheets thus the poor sound insulation?

any positives bout your car?

how is the engine?is it responsive when you gas it?
my merc c200 is really slow & heavy footed.Takes like 2-3 secs after you gas it all the way b4 you feel any power.
