Stock gearing can get you past 140 with ease.

TravisSW · 06-11-2009, 09:24 AM

I've driven a BMW up to 140mph before at the El Toro air base when I used to work security there.

That shit was a blast.

I dont think people should go past 140 on a 240, those things are unstable. Only thing i got fast enough for the wangan is my bike, went 180 on it. Never will do that again.

deukalionS14 · 06-11-2009, 11:31 AM

that damn speed cut shit pisses me off!! LOL but i guess it saves me when i choose to lose my mind

Tan-R · 06-11-2009, 11:49 AM

out here in good ole south dakota, we can hit 150 and hold it for a while, as long as a fuzz buster is helping out with keeping an eye out, cops are pretty nice out here, for the most part...

you just need suspension, I did a little over 160 on my Last S13. it felt perfectly fine other than the flapping fenders. My Z32 still can use some foot work. it dosent feel as good at around 155

Wow i never heard of a s13 going that fast haha. How fast will the gearing on a 240 let you go?

about 165-170 LOL i was at 6700 RPM in 5th gear with 17's on 235/45 ZR17's almost about to redline the RB

ricerocket99 · 06-11-2009, 07:34 PM

Well I've seen some pretty interesting things on the Highway, as far as cars racing, It's funny when i see random cars racing each other. I think wangan keeps things interesting when a RWD or FWD take on AWD, my friends FD was fun to watch against a Z06

Dignity · 06-11-2009, 07:51 PM

[note to self: need to check speedometer once in a while, rather than just running down the freeyway in tunnel vision mode lol]

haha i only do that when the car feels funny. so i can keep check of my car's limit to date. I still dont feel safe after 155 on my Z. I really need Tension rods, RUCAS's , FUCA's and a Good Aligment

singlecamslam · 06-11-2009, 08:11 PM

Dont RB's have crappy gearing? My friends RB is at like 4k at around 75MPH. I'm too scared to go fast on my car around here, way too many cars haha.

I just need a new car. Period. lol

The mustang's good and all, but i really need to set that aside to fully restore it while i work on the soon-to-be-mine 90 240sx. Only test driven it out on the streets (if you would even call them streets) so i have NO idea what its standing is against my mustang lol.

I wangan naked in my dreams all the time

I do that too, except in my mustang. On the quarter mile lol.

s13skank · 06-12-2009, 06:20 PM

Stupid speed limits!

Dignity · 06-13-2009, 12:32 AM

Just finished a run right now lol. I also got into a bit of a snag with a subaru... I lost terribly

DreamN · 06-13-2009, 12:35 AM

If had a car worthy of high speed runs I'd be into it. Stock KA just doesn't cut it lol.

Bardabe, finish up the VQ wiring. Wait, which wiring are you doing right now? VQ35DE or VQ35HR? After talking to Dave, I'm all about the HR. Shit is tits.

I'm seriously considering purchasing a wrecked Z so that I can get everything ready for CARB legal status once Dave finishes.

bardabe · 06-13-2009, 01:32 AM

im working on it don't worry lol

Dignity · 06-18-2009, 08:03 PM

Blew out my mustang's engine last night doing its final run so it was a good death lol. 351 w/ supercharger here i come!
