Top end problems..
It won't show as a link as I'm not your friend... I've trried it befor
6spd 148mph... 4at 135mph... I would like to use that software dandy is using to see how fast my ish can ever go with my mods
That's weird I just spoke to the main guy @ TS and they are willing to upgrade my 5.5th Gen ECU (a/t) cause I understand that the damn thing will need to be manually shifted to reach the rev limiter in 1st and 2nd gear.......So I know this is still available if you fully understand the scenario! I've pulled to 130 in 3rd gear and almost hit the rev limiter....and this was from 40mph leaving an entrance ramp to 130 mph in about a mile with a passenger......I thought we all had 148mph speed limiters A/T's and M/T's.........
See post #36............ you can use the UPREV CAMS... not much of an upgrade but an upgrade none the less
Mods are in my sig
Haha I read the title of this thread, and came in expecting to see problems in the high RPM range! Not "top end" of the speedometer
. Haha what the H are you doing going 130mph in an 8 year old family sedan anyway??! I'm all for the 1/4 mile racing, etc, but going 130+ mph in a car like this is stupid! I love my maxima, love modding it, and love driving aggressively, but come on! You wanna go 130+, get a car that's safe going that fast. I know we love our Max's, but at some point reality needs to set in

are you sure u were in 3rd???
i think you were in 4th bud. not even my previous ride (infiniti M45) can hit 130 in 3rd. 3rd would take me barely to 101mph.
Yes it will. Your M was probably at least a 5AT, these horrible 4AT's have ridiculously long gearing. With the extended rev limit I think i saw 137 at the end of third.
Anyone questioning this can go back to the first page and look at my dyno graphs, they are plotted against SPEED, not RPM, that's why I posted them,

Another fun one ... I would probably pull tremendously on the car in comparison on a track from 100-130. This is with TS 7100 rev limit.

^^^ That would have been awsome. The gearing in nissan's 5AT does a great job at blending gear ratios that are good for performance, and still maintain a good cruising speed when on the highway.
I cant say much for the strength and weight of them though...

It fairly close to the 5MT, especially the top of 3rd. but with a taller OD gear for MPG's. IIRC, that may from the FD which is like 2.44http://forums.maxima.org/3261761-post2.html
Strength has always been questionable
.. But I never thought of the weight.
lol. And on that note, I prefer my 5MT. I actually had to re-adjust my coilovers because the driver side raised up a little after getting rid of the 4AT. And if something breaks, I can just take the 5MT apart and swap in what ever broke from one of the many broken 5MTs we've got laying around here for parts.
By the way, wasn't there some talk a while back about a taller final drive/5th gear for the 5MT? If i'm not mistaken, it was from another nissan vehicle.

Yeah, I imagine it would have popped up a bit. Also, I think I like the 5MT gears better overall.
Also, in the comparison of my car and another car on that dyno, up this page, it was actually a 6th gen 5AT.
