I might even make a video or two of a run for you VG guys, just so you can see what it's like to go that fast in a Maxima.
I get this loud hmmm (rubbing sound), not sure what it is so I slow back down. I know I can go faster, because I am just barely breaking 5000 rpm at 130 in 5th

120mph daily driver

Living in the country I get to crack it open on a two-mile stretch on my way home. Can't seem to get it over 125mph but do 120mph regularly.:devil

Mods are as follows: I/Y/E, RT CAT, UDP, JWT ECU, ACT clutch, short shifter, Eibach/Tokico and 17" Cobra wheels. Also have ST sways and FSTB.

I also run mid 14s at the track w/o the assistance of a rocket or even a good launch for that matter.

i just put mine over 145 today on 79 north. i was trying to catch phil (freaking boosted fawk) and he was pulllin on me pretty good. i gotta say though, the full exhaust, UDP, and intake really make a difference. it pulls like it's never before, and it felt surefooted with the new sways, and with the FSTB. . .. . .

I seriously doubt that...
Motor trend did a high speed test a few years back and the Supra TT,rx7,3000gt and 300zx TT all had trouble breaking 150mph.

Ok

Point 1. I did say ESTIMATE 160 - 165. I dont have an optical 5th wheel, or even a g-tech for that matter and the speedo goes to 145, not exactly a presicion reading when going beyond it.

Point 2. I dont take my eyes off the road much when going 100+, all I can say is that the speedo was well beyond 145 and the tach was over 6k.

Point 3. Most all of the sports cars mentioned are speed governed, I recall the Supra TTs specifically being set at 149 according to C&D.

Point 4. Still dont believe me? Fine. No skin off my back, I really do think I'll get over it.

Thank you drive through!

true, but all i was saying was that with your mods you still can't do 165 unless your going downhill with the wind at your back then MAYBE it's possible. but we are on the internet and i could tell you that my 2nd car is skyline and i'm married to elizabeth hurley too. but anyways we're all supposed to be maxima buddies so i'll let ya go this time... j/k

142 1-74 between Peoria & Galesburg,IL. Nice flat long runs in the midwest. I think I lost a couple of pounds from the sweat pouring out of my palms

Actually, the VG autos have quite a bit of room.
I was clocked by radar at 143, and my tach was showing under 5000 rpm. by the time you hit redline, you could be well over 160. now if you jsut had the power to do it.....

VE 5 spd hits 6500rpm (stock redline) about 160mph.

he's probably referring to the fact that its stock form will be improved/changed. so he's going to "fix" it.
