fastest top speed

[matic 240sx]

my 97 240sx speedometer reads 120 (which all years do i believe) and i have no gov.  when going down the interstate i slowly passed 120 up... then my needle hit the clock button and never cut out...  has anyone ever been clocked passed 120 (IN A 240, not your friend's, mom's, cousin's, little brother's saleen)?  Heh...  

[pchio]

Do you have a auto? Cause I heard that only auto has no gov. Mine cut out at 118MPH, and I have a manual.

[LanceS13]

my speedo tops out at 110mph and the gov shuts her down at 114mph <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/sad.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':('>

[ca18guy]

I been over 130 mph and have lots of room to go faster, my speedo go's up to 150.

[Freak Leash 240]

145+ mph ... only in a '99 Mustang GT with SVT headers, custom 3&quot; exhaust pipes and 2 flowmaster dual-chamber mufflers and removed air box w/ a K&amp;N cone filter. &nbsp;

115 in my s-14

[240booster]

#### Gov shut me down at 114 mph too &nbsp;:-( &nbsp; .... lol but i got my Nissan Sentra SE-R to keep up with a porsche one day at 135 mph!!

[transient]

100mph. My friend in the back started almost pissin his pants, so I had to slow down <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':p'>

[mike95s14]

120mph, then the speed gov kicked in, in my 95 s14. &nbsp;It's so easy to get there. &nbsp;I can't wait till I upgrade the ecu, and get a new speedometer.

[PSI240SX]

138 mph in my 240 with plenty more to go, just ran out of interstate. 173 in my friends dads Porsche 996 coming up on heavy traffic.

Hi people, new here,
do you lot all have imports or is it the law to restrict the cars like in Japan, seems like non of you guys go over 120mph, I've been 150 and it was scary, and it was still pushing hard, I've heard of people going to the trip meter

[stix]

I've gone 112, then the there's a fuel cut-off, my speedo only goes to 115. I hope to change that with a JWT ECU and a new speedo. =)

I've not taken her passed 90 <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'> Its not worth the risk of a ticket for me, (I can hardly pay for it as it is...My account ballance as of yesterday was $-5 so I put my last ten bux in the account <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/sad.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':('>) I usually try to keep it under reckless (20over) What were you driving Danny? Thats pretty frickin fast!

[Chokudori]

I've gone around 112mph. The car starts to feel a bit unstable at that speed though... &nbsp;And the car was barely accelerating after that. This was at 6000+ ft altitude by the way.

[konkman]

I went 110mph or 190km/h when the governer kicked in. &nbsp;I was only at 5500rpm's with lots of legs left. &nbsp;That's the great benefit of the ecu upgrade.

[nissantuner]

yes yes yes hahahahaha I have all of you beat yes yes yes (pumping fist) &nbsp;:biggrin:
I was on the interstate and well I was rat racing this 93 supra! (I think it was stock though <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/sad.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':('> ) anyways that day was the death of my KA mind you! I have a 200 mph speedo...just in case! <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'> anyway I droped down from 5th to third and gave her #### when he gave me a look....expecenced import tuners you know the look! and off we went I slamed forth and was redlining at 9500 (i have done 10000RPM many times and she seamed ok!) and I hit 154 or 155 and all #### broke loose, I was stupid and ignoring the glow of the huge shift light! and well along came 10500 RPM and kabluieagazooie! 9 grand down the drain! I threw a custom lightened forged piston rod through the side of the block.....heared it hit many things under my car and shot it out at the supra! opps sorry! anyways he stopped and was like oh shit! when I showed him my blown 4 banger he was amaized at how good it went...I beleve at this time I was crying! hehe almost! and I saw the piston rod in the middle of the interstate so I picked it up stupid me (it was still red!) and got a 2nd degree burn on my hand. &nbsp;anyways now its time for SR! yaaaaa! I think i will keep that piston rod forever just because. the second piston was the one that went and when I took the block apart I found all 253 peices of it......just think how hard it is to shatter cromolly!
ok i think that is!

[BadMoJo]

####, Thats sounds like it was one badass KA!! what exactly did you have done to it?

[my240likenoother]

that sux blowing the moter
i did it in my VW hit the rev limiter too many times
i dont hit it in the 240 nono....

did you have a custom billet crank??? Was the motor de-stroked?? because I have been told by engineers that the KA motor will fall apart above 7000 rpms without a custom crank and they are about $4000. I just dont believe you and I hate not believing anyone but it just doesnt make sense cuz the KA motor runs out of steam high in the revs, its a low rpm torque motor not a high revving hp motor. &nbsp;I will have to raise the bullshit flag here.

[LanceS13]

I was thinking the same thing PSI...8K, much less 10K, is crazy on a KA. &nbsp;I wanna hear an explanation.

[Archangel]

I'm not saying he's right or wrong, but the engine did fall apart. &nbsp;10k is crazy and from the story, it didn't last long at that high. &nbsp;10k may be insane, but it destroyed his engine completely, so it really isn't possible to rev the ka that high.

My experience (although it seems useless at this point):
I got my s14 up to about 115mph on the way home from the dealership, and it felt like it could have keep going, but it started to feel a little shaky (stock) and i didn't want to total it before I even got it home <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=';)'>

[LanceS13]

Well...he said he had taken it to 10K many times and it seemed ok. &nbsp;It would take alot of work just to get the KA to survive one trip to 10K. &nbsp;I'm just curious what he has/had done to the motor to make it last that long at that rpm.

[transient]

I have to agree. I'd like to hear more about this.

[misnomer]

s13s don't have shift lights. . .

anywho, I'd guestimate the fastest I've been in a 240sx is ~130 in my old auto '89 on some lonely Nevada highway. Can't tell for sure how quick it was 'cause the speedo stops way before that <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':p'> 114 in my '92 5spd.

[burgy240]

I Got a solid 113 out of mine in the deserts of Nevada. &nbsp;Loved every second of it too! &nbsp;I was stock so I hesitated to go faster but felt as if it was still possible. &nbsp;God I love this Car!!!!!!

[matic 240sx]

yea mines an auto... &nbsp;and i know im atleast doing 135 in it...

[mike95s14]

Were you smoking crack at the same time? &nbsp;Just curious.

First off how much HP do you have that makes it possible to pull 155 mph in 4th gear? What all do you have done to your engine, if you where smart enough to through all the possible mods on your car why aren't you smart enough to know not to rev the engine to 10,000 rpm's? There is no power there when you get that high in the rpm's anyway so it's &nbsp;pointless to rev that high in the first place. I'm sorry there are to many things wrong with your post.

that's pretty funny when u throw up the BS flag, the BS flag rules.
