BTW, Auto Trans has taller Final Drive Ratio, theorically, they should be able to reach higher top speed.

Haven't been trying top speed for quite some time, at least for the past 1 year. I've been track-build modding the car, solid trans/engine mount, Shorter FD etc... Now I hit only ~220 at ~6krpm 6th gear, The NHV from the solid mounting and bushing is very unbearable at that speed and rpm. but of coz the time taken to reach 220 is much quicker than previously.

I've was on NSHighway the other day and did a short burst after

My brother was in the car taking video. Of course can't do top speed while taking pics. That's irresponsible! :P

Hello guys and girls :)

Just wanna ask, what's the max speed that you have done with your stock Z.. i mean completely stock.. no turbocharged or supercharged.. oh well, maybe change of exhaust :p

I did 215kmph and i was wondering if i could push it further.. BUT am just too scared.. hehe.. scared my veilside bumper will fall off.. lol.. just jk

So, pls do tell me your max speed that you've done (without speedcut)

Thanks :)
I did just over 220ish but with HKS exhaust. That was based on the digital readout which I have no idea how accurate it actually is since I was running 19" rims.

But if you're talking max speed in general :driver:

If you are on 275/35/19, your actual speed is approx 0.4% slower than the meter, so your reading is consider accurate.

if you on 275/30/19, your actual speed is 4.4% slower than the meter.
