    Top speed?

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    I was wondering how fast you've gone in your car. I hit 150 and backed off with my brother and a full car on a trip to Okla. 2 weeks ago in Utah. I really think it would've maxed out and then some. Felt really powerful and didn't take long to get there. I was amazed. Now I know a few people don't ever want to max out there car so please don't leave negative responses..

    Re: Top speed?

    The 2nd week I owned my car (and it was completely stock) I took a trip to Vegas for business - it was very early in the morning and no one was around and I got her up to a speedo indicated 160. Now I know these cars are supposed to be limited to 155 and I'm sure there is a little speedo error, but even at that speed, the car felt like it wanted to keep going and it was rock solid.

    +1 to 160 on the way to Vegas. I've seen over 160 but not by much and not sure of the exact speed... I kind of had to focus on things other than the speedometer. Felt real strong up there for sure. Wish I had a closed road to test it out because I don't feel right or very safe on public roads... even if they're empty. I almost hit a deer head on at 120 on the way to houston in my 350z. That would have done some damage...

    142 east of Amarillo, Texas and I decided that doubling the limit wasn't such a hot idea but there certainly was plenty left.

    I took it a bit over 140... maybe around 150, I really didn't have the balls to look down to see how fast it actually was going.

    Yeah I would think the only thing being limited is the Revs via the "rev limiter". If the car can get above 155 and you aren't maxed out RPM wise, theoretically you should be able to go faster. I've seen 160 and it wanted to keep pulling. I have no idea what the revs were though - going too fast to notice.

    175? did you upgrade your instrument cluster? how did you know you hit 175
    I trust you that you went 175mph but just want to know what indication method you used.

    this question is for everyone
