does anyone have top speed numbers for the 2001 Maxima? i think i have the right #'s in my head but i could be wrong.


So far i have it as


With the governor still on its 138 mph

With it off its 160 mph

 

Where did you get this data?


On unloaded tires, theoretical # is 164.2

 

what's the un-theoretical #?

 

Top Speed /= dyno forum.....




But anyways where did you get that 160mph # from? I hope not because thats the highest # on the speedometer. I have a friend that had a mildly modified 00 (Progress drop, Toyos on stockers, short ram intake, repaired VI), and racing a 350z on the highway (I wasnt there, this is what he told me) says that he got it up to 155mph when it finally stopped accelerating.... (crazy ****)

But then you have to take into account the accuracy of the speedo gauge on those high speeds. My tachometer for example shows Im bouncing off "redline" at 6800rpm, when in reality (from my SAFC) its more like 6540ish. Radar would pretty much be the fail-safe way to know where you top off.... but I doubt those guys that HAVE the radars will be to happy about it

 

well if anyone does have that specific information, plz post it on here or send it to me by mail. thx
