Was it on 35???

 

oh god no. it was on a highway on the way to garland (grapevine even...? i don't remember the number) i live in austin, so i have no clue what hte names of the highways are out there. 635? does that sound right. i think it was 635....

the z has seen close to 140 on 183 in austin too. i must admit my right foot is heavy. but i only do retarded speeds everynow and again waaaaay late at night.

 

152 mph on 684 near Bedford , upstate NY , gotta love the road over there...
calling BS on the guy who says he left it in the 6 gear and still it was quick to hit 150 from 85...

 

140 mph on I-10 from Lake Charles to Houston at 3am.

 

Exactly...

 

I felt that the car was real smooth at my speed (129), but I was concerned, too, with a tire blow. However, I got really concerned when I passed the only other car on the Turnpike when I was going 129 and he/she must've been going 75 in the right lane. I was hoping the driver wouldn't merge!

 

150 or maybe a little more - had to watch the road - for a few miles (20 or so)

 

I’ve only hit about 110.

But what I really enjoy doing often is hitting 100 on on-ramps to the interstate. It’s the perfect spot; ever seen a radar set-up on an on-ramp? When traffic is light I launch from a complete stop and am over 100 by the time I merge onto the interstate.

It’s really fun to watch people’s expression as I blow by them into traffic at 100+.

 

I hit 168 in my 93 rx7...now that made me about **** my pants

 

ive pegged it out a few times. 160ish...love to get that 200 speedo myself to see what its really doing....i keep forgetting to set the digital speedo to see if it reads over 160....have to try it out the next time...i never think to look at it....

 

How did you guys get around the Govenor on this thing? I thought at like ~155 it cuts off the fuel or something? It's not like I need to get to work in about 5 seonds, but I'm just curious.

i was drivin one night at like 4 am on the east I-94 toll road and i was nearing 39mph and it was commin out from under me so i let off all i could think about is that maybe a poor baby or an eloping possum shall dare cross my path,

 

technosquare ecu gets rid of the top speed limiter

 

top speed is suposedly 157....i said 160ish...and the speedo shows a couple a mph fast so it was burried..i never hit the limiter though..i dont have the ts ecu yet as i want to get all my mods on it and drive it there so i dont have the issues of sending it back numorous times......
but thats how people are getting past the 160 mark

but then again my maxima was sposed to have a limiter at 142 and it was well over 150 before my ecu on it......and a little above the 160 mark with the ecu

 

I'll post pic's of the Nismo speedo when it gets here. Like you, I don't think about the digital read out.....

 

I know where 183 is , I can see you doing 140 there late at night. Twice a year I have to go to austin for business. Cool city.

 

115 on the Belt Parkway and which then lead me to a 95 mph turn but it says 35 mph. Oh Well

 

About 25mph on the blvd with the windows down ... the girlies can't admire you if you're traveling at a buck fifty.

 

The last time I responded to a thread like this the speed was 110. Because I'm a chickensh*t. Well all that change last Sunday am when I was heading home from grocery shoping. An M3 passed me I was going about 70 at the time. I came up along side him at around 85. (5th gear) We were traveling in the I-64 W carpool lanes in Norfolk, VA. A van was in his lane so I backed off a bit and he punched it. He came over to the left so I followed him. He didn't seem to be getting away from me. I glanced at the speed....123. Chickensh*t time! I backed off.

Regards!

 

159 on numerous occasions on interstate. My electronic speedo will not go any higher but the car never really feels like its cutting out or anything. Even at that speed the car is still really stable and I always feel completely in control.
