My 94 was right at 30 MPH at 1k RPM and I know it was original since it had 27k miles on it when I got it.

2k at 80 sounds crazy. Mine worked out to 3k at 90. Should be 333 RPM per 10 MPH in top gear.

That was on the original 15 year old tires in 2008 at 27k original miles!

First thing I would check on the 2k at 80 car would be that the tach was right. I could be someones frankenstein tranny made from tallest 5th and differential ratios, but I guess it would have to have HF components since the VX was the tallest final drive of any of the later hydro trannies. My knowledge of Hondas is limited, maybe someone else knows how you could get to that tall an overall ratio.
