Im not going to say im a angel on the streets but dont' do it, it's not worth the risk thats one thing i don't do go out and top out my car but it's up to you.

 

[DiRN]

I agree on this one. Unless you're on some flat, straight, deserted road, it's not really worth it

You could be right. I'm not 100% sure, that's why I said I believe it's 156

Yay!
Hey I was reading on a previous post of yours and I noticed that you mentioned that the base model doesn’t come w/ an lsd or traction control, but I was on the highway 3 nights ago and I could have sworn I saw some thing light up it was too fast to see but I just want to know if # 1 base models have it and you just cant take it off / control it? It’s a 2004 and #2 how good are the aftermarket lsd's and is the nismo one worth the money?

Sorry I am bombarding you w/ questions this is my first fast car I traded my 200 v6 mustang for my new love.

You guys are going to make him go try now cause he wants 160 Hahhaha makes me want to go try too. NOTTTTTTTTTTTT

 

[DiRN]

<span style="color:darkblue">No, Bases definitely don't have an LSD, TCT, or VCD. I don't know anything about the aftermarket LSDs because I'm fine with the stock one, but I know Richard had the Nismo one on his Z. link</span>

My Z did 142 mph with me as a driver... dont do it...

 

[dave079]

I did 146 and got scared but it was still climbing. Fastest I have ever been in a car. It was a fun adrenaline rush though. I have seen several pictures that people have taken of there speedometer at 156-160. Gotta be crazy to take your hand off the wheel at that speed.

 

[jinxxycat]

Fastest we have had Lucy was 129....I aint scuuuuuuuuuured! I loved it! I've done 120 w/ my body alone!!! (HA, jumping out of an airplane that is! lol)

 

[SOLRAC]

[LBSOHK]
