hey, where did it say it was drag limited to 156? a car as aerodynamically slick as the Z with 332hp should be able to go faster than that. That would be my guess.

^^^^ calm down no one said you did. There was another thread were we were talking about the different types of speed limiting and that was a point that was brought up.

the E46 M3 can hit 175mph drag limited stock.
the new Z should be able to hit between 175 and 185mph.

hell i remember the Z32 was tested and it's limiter was removed and it hit 170mph+.
i believe.

I really honestly believe that it is governed to 160, not drag limited.

350HP got my Trans Am to 180+. That was a 3500Lbs car! I'm sure that 332HP with 300 less pounds could do about the same. (Not to mention that the Z is a lot more aerodynamic.)

Yeah the 345hp C5 Vettes topped out at 177mph if I recall correctly. The V8's in the Trans Am and C5 produce more torque than the Z to go along with that hp so I think the Z aint gonna hit anywhere near 180mph. Not sure of the aero on the C5's but the 370z's .29 COD and 332hp should enable it to hit at "least" 165 to maybe 170mph with no limiter. Assuming the gearing and other variables are in place for that. my worthless 2cents

Oh guatantee that the z should be able to go over 160mph ungoverned. Torque doesn't have very much to do at high rpm's at least not as much as horsepower does. Torque is really for off the line and mid range rpm, helps produce horsepower. Horsepower is derived from torque. Only time will tell as the z's start pouring into the showrooms and people start growing bigger and bigger balls.

If this whole speed limiter discussion stemmed from the fact that the flash "increases speed limiter," then please keep in mind almost all cars in Japan are governed to a certain speed by law. So this selling point is mainly for the Japanese audiance.

My 03 Eclipse GT isnt speed limited it takes forever to get up there but I have had it to 142. I will try to look for it but on the Club3g.com board I'm a member of there was something saying that domestic cars have governors on them besides the boutique vipers and such. I look for it.....

In japan all cars regardless of their make or model have a speed governed to 110mph so the police can catch them. Then they buy the reflash or get a governer eliminator and then they go 170+.
