Top Speeds in Different Gears (6MT)

PeterSellers, that explanation sounds right to me. I have to doubt the z will do 195 as JoeD stated. Unless it's modified and a new transmission which makes this thread very unspecific.

195 MPH is the theoretically calculated top-speed based on gearing, tire-size, and the engine's redline. Not taking into account the tire's expansion at that speed, 7500 RPM in 6th-gear works out to 195 MPH.

I never said the car will get to that speed.

But a TechnoSquare re-flash with an 8100 RPM fuel-cut will get you to 210 MPH in 6th at that RPM.
