speed limit or rev limit?

i say around 130 ish my car doesnt pull anymore, wtf!!! it's pulls like warp speed until i hit that speed range and it feels like the car shuts down, is it because i have a 4 speed auto and the revs are at max or there is a speed gov. on my ride? if so i should do that speed sensor mod?

I think there was something in the FAQ's about leaving the overdrive off for as long as possible. It won't pull as hard or as long in OD as it will with it off.

Yeah, it is a governor on the speed, not on revs. Are you hittign the limiter, or are you running out of fuel to support continued accelleration?

Also, only Maxima GXE versions had the limiter on the A32, and I THOUGHT that the I30 was based on SE and/or GLE hardware.
