well if one car was going uphill and the other was going downhill, but the uphill one had a tailwind and the downhill one had a headwind, and was also being followed by a ****ed off semi truck driver....
who do you think would win?

I have been racing for well over 13 years and I have personally beating a ve stock auto with my vg stock on a open highway! Last I checked against my buddies electronic dash ve he topped out at 139 and I had a car and a half on him on a open highway in Nevada. I just recently checked my top speed with my latest mods and my top end is at about 145. So anything can be done if you can drive . I also kept up with a 2000 se even though they are quick there is always that one chance in what ever odds so try it for fun , what you got to lose if you beat'em thats one more for the vg family!

Oh sorry. When he mentioned 145mph I thought he had a ve (since vg's only have 125mph/115mph speedos).

As far as I understood, stock auto VE's aren't that fast, and I think that a VG could keep up with one, especially if the VG is a 5spd with mods. If anything, my goal is to have my auto VG as fast as a stock auto VE. Only in time though since I'm broke.....

I know you guys are skeptical about everything people say here but I assure you guys my car can run 145+ top end, and yes my car was clocked by a buddy of mine with the highway patrol here in my hometown! He is a really cool dude and if you catch him late at night you can even race his camaro. We also have a place where we go to race V8's to chop there heads off, us import guys are tired of the V8 clan giving us slack. Its time we show the american muscle who really is king of the road! And in my case its Nissan!!!!

Tell me what you're doing to it. I only WISH I had 10k to put into my car. You're gonna have the nicest 3rd gen out there for sure! That's gotta be more than David C put into his even. Feel free to contradict me if you're out there Maximapwr!
