Whats the fastest you've gone in an AUTO SE?
 

im wondering , those with 2001 SE's with 17's, whats the fastest you ever gone. i thought the 17's had something to do with it, but the fastest i've ever gone in my SE is around 125 and then it seems to not move anymore. is there a limiter on the 2001? or just the auto 2001. i thought there was no limiter on the 5th gen, is it because i have auto, or do the autos go up to 140+ too. because i used to have a 99 gxe and it went up to 135 no problems.
i've searched and it seems most people that go up to 140+ have 5 speeds. please shed some light.

thanks.

Re: Whats the fastest you've gone in an AUTO SE?
 

From what I've read, there is a limiter on the autos, and it's somewhere in the vacinity of 135mph. Personally, I've gotten up to about 133. But with the speedometer error at those speeds, I don't know how accurate it was.

i have a 2000 SE Auto, and YES there is a speed limiter, its about 131mph, i have a set of 225/45/17 tires on my stock 17s, so at max speed the guage reads 138mph, but factor in correction factors and it should be right around 131. Others have claimed top speed on autos as 131, and its true, i originally thought it was just the limit of the car, but even with nitrous it wouldnt break the limit. you need the Apexi RSM to remove the speed limiter.

do u know how much the apexi rsm is?
 

i've also hit the limit at about what you guys have done. after that, you just run out of road.. :rolleyes:

kafene.

Is there a limiter on the 2k2 autos?

I've managed 140 (just a tick above) but again judging from Speedo errors at that speed it might be lower than that.

I've only been able to verify speedo accuracy with the GPS up to 70mph.

Btw, i have a 2k2 auto.

I hit 140 then it cut out. Have 3 people to vouch for it. At least that is what it said on the spedo.

thanks for the info
 

but my speedo just went up to 125 and just stayed there, does it take a while to get it to budge more? also where can i get this apexi RSM. thanks to all those who replied.

??? Limiter on 5th gens? I thought they were drag limited? Anyway, I've gotten mine to 136 and still pulling ever so slow with just an intake. Long race, but I ended up winning :cool: One person to vouch for me, been to 132 two other times...

hit around 133mph twice...damn it creeps to get there once u hit 120-125mph:D

sooo..
 

that means we can make it past 120+, takes a while though huh. well i'll keep an eye out for that next time.

thanks to all those that replied. im still wondering where i can get the apexi rsm though? any cheap sites or stores to get them?

<< Between 130 and 135 in the Maxima.

Re: sooo..
 

I got to 120 yesterday real quick, a lot quicker than normal. I made a ghetto ram air for my CAI and I think it helped a lot..

130 on the speedo.

Friend was driving my car in Kansas and the speedo said 111 and so did the police officer. Always wanted to fight that because I know the speedometer can't be that exact at that mph.
