The push
 

I was doing 159 at least that's what the GPS said dash said 155 give or take but i know we can do better....

The OP's question is missing a comma. I believe the question is supposed to be" What is the fastest you have had your Z, too?". This implies that a comparison is being made, either to the OP personally, or to your own experience with speed in other cars.

I put forth that this is a trick question. We have no way of knowing how fast the OP has gone in all the cars he has owned. It is also unlikely that any of us has traveled at exactly the same speed, at the peak speed, for any of the cars we have owned. Furthermore, some measurements are inaccurate. I went very fast as a "yout" in a 68 Pontiac LeMans (350, 4 spd, 4 barrel Rochester carb,ram air, 3/4 racing cam), but the speedometer was buried. I have no idea how fast I was going. Therefore, I suggest the questions is unanswerable.

as one wise man once said "better to have it and not need it" "than need it and not have it" what the hell 100. but just knowing it will go 150 is good enough for me.

I'm pretty sure I hit the soft limiter. Out here in Korea there is a new highway that is not well known so it is almost always empty. It's nice with new asphalt and about 5-6 lanes on each side. In Korea there is speed enforcement but it is only done by cameras which are well marked and even come up on your GPS. (They beep until you slow down).

Truthfully I stop looking at the speedo and pay more attention to the road. Even though the road is clear I don't want to risk hitting an object and killing myself.

I had mine up to 135 140 right in there. It was kinda windy out and it felt a little nervous to me so I backed it down. Now on my bikes I will top them out at 186 or a little more and it feels super planted. I would rather go fast on a new sport bike than in our cars. I raced for seven years so I have alot more confidence in riding a bike fast versus a car. These cars are very fast though that's for sure.

What the Z needs at the higher speeds is down force and proper suspension.
Once your start going above 130 the suspension is off and you need down force to push the a$$ down.

155

I was going to start a thread like this... but for all cars. :)

I hit 130 in my lil Prelude.
120 in my lil CRX.

I'll post my Z times when I get there. :)

(btw, this was not done on a public road)

55mph...

I only go the posted speed limit. :ugh2:

I usually follow the speed limit, but how tempted would you be on a road like this?
