167 here:, the car will hold at 162 but if you slip the clutch alitte
and hold your foot to the floor and have a long road it can be done! I think it will go faster I ran out of road.

Well, I am a bit off, it was like dusk, now that I remember it more. I got off of it as soon as the analog speedo hit 160.

The fastest I've gone is 110mph. Reason being is my wife hates it when I go 90mph.

110mph on the straight at Summit Point from T10 to T1, I didn't have the ***** to go any faster as I wasn't sure if the brakes were going to be able to take it.

Dude... you don't try to slip ANYTHING at 160... You hang on and try not to crash.

you slip your clutch at that speed and you can kiss your clutch good bye!. Besides the car is electronicly limited, you can not pass 155 unless you are going down hill. the ECU wont let you

Ive been 159, the speed limiter is 159 not 155 people! If you doubt it try it. You may need a slight downhill to reach 159 or a long stretch of road.

Believe me, the brakes can take it. the brakes on this car are great! The car gets up to speed great, drives at speed great, and returns you to ground Zero great! Brakes are the least of your wories. remember, seatbelts in the Z are not an option, they are a necesity. Awfully fun to pin a new passenger to the belts by the way.

D A M N! I didn't know that track is that fast! I saw 130+ 3 times per lap(well, not every lap....) this weekend at Road America. Sorry for no exact #'s, as the corner markers are flying by pretty darn fast, and my eyes were needed elsewhere! Felt great, still pulling STRONG! Could have gone faster but "The Kink" with stock tires made me chicken out

138 on the digital. ***-end of the Long Island Expressway at 4AM. I was going for gold(150+) but I had to slow down because a couple of cars came onto the highway. Can't wait to be out there again sometime

I have a question (slightly OT), but if we go posting our speed, are we admitting guilt to speeding? Can the cops read about a guy saying "I went xxx mph" and hand out tickets? Just wondering...


Oh yeah, 155. No mods.

my G sedan hit 158 bone stock, and yes the brakes work well at at least 135 mph (highest I have used em) even the non brembo's

Just remember those without the brembo's, don't stop driving for a long time after you use the brakes at that speed or they will warp once you come to a standstill

i cruise at 135 every week or two for about 10 miles jsut to get my dose of high speed jitters

this car will corner at 130 on highway curves and I assume your z's will do it faster. Just remember: smooth, SMOOTH turns, braking etc
