However, I think, but I am not 100% positive, that my GT3 had a much better aerodynamic over this stock 370Z and that's why not much hp needed in order to get up there..... and it got up there pretty strong with not much struggle.
A rough estimate (using the 370z gearing) shows it would top out right in the ballpark of 198-205 mph. This is assuming it has the same 0.30Cd.
