Max Speed

So I've heard that stock the fastest the Z can go is 158. but what i want to know, is where does the gearing run out? And is there a speed governor on the car? Is so, where? Thanks

1st - 30mph
2nd - 60mph
3rd - 90mph
4th - 120mph
5th - 150mph
6th - 180mph

approx.

Though the car is speed limited by the ECU to 155/156mph

And of course that is theoretical since the Z does not have the power to make 180 MPH.

The exact gear's are:
1st:38
2nd:61
3rd:88
4th:112
5th:142
All at 6600 rpm's
6th:155 Electronically limited at 5700 rpm's
My guess is the Z will top out at around 165
