Advanced meth will send you on a crazy tangent.

Damn I feel like it'll be scary driving that car past 130 on the roads around here, I know it was with my rx7.

oops, i meant math, not meth...

My top speeds for my cars:

C4 Corvette - 145MPH
Firebird Formula - 145MPH
Trans Am - 160+MPH (Buried the needle past 155, so I'm not 100% how fast.)
300zx 100MPH (+/- 5MPH) (Don't want to push it... Haven't worked on the suspension yet)

Sashimi · 06-28-2009, 06:40 AM

So far with 370z 100mph it's still being broken in
rx7-140mph
WRX- 125mph

159 on the Autobahn...going downhill...just couldn't get it to 160. Maybe if I kick my buddy out the passenger side it'll hit it.

I've noticed that at 100 mph in rain/wind on concrete (seamed) roadways, the Yokohama Advan Sports on the base/touring feel a mite skittery. I'd want the 1" wider tires of the sport package (and probably better nose downforce).

The rest of the time, standard highway driving conditions and speeds, I'm probably getting around 5% better gas mileage. (This will improve even more when I sacrifice some grip to get All-Seasons late this fall.)

You're driving 100mph in the rain!?

joshj808 · 06-28-2009, 12:11 PM

Yup, i have too. AWD is nice to have. Good wet enviro tires too. I love my Eagle F1 GS D3s.

laserjim · 06-28-2009, 02:29 PM

Hey my 350z would do 158.Anybody know the speed of stock 370z?

Trips · 06-28-2009, 02:59 PM

The books say electronically limited to 155 mph but has anybody gone that fast yet?

Junior370z · 06-28-2009, 06:01 PM

I have a tune just like killerbee370z but haven't tried yet to peg the speedometer. I'll do it one of these days on an open road. I did however go from 70mph to 110mph in about 5 seconds. My wife was in the car and timed it for me. Got there pretty quick IMO.

You guys are f*cking NUTS! I'd never drive fast in the rain. Not because of my nerves or faith in the car, but because you'll NEVER know what's ahead; and by that I mean other people (and how they're driving), cops, tree branches, etc... There's too many variables in the rain. Hydroplaning is bad, but it's not the only thing that can go wrong. And even if you have AWD, a sudden course adjustment can really ruin your day.
