To answer your question my older brother has a GTR and he's going to probably trade in for a 12' soon, I personally have a 2010 Maxima right now.
in limp mode the car basically cuts off spark to the engine at 5000 rpm, so you cant rev past that. you can still drive the car normally, you just have to upshift sooner. so basically 5000 rpm becomes the new redline.
