Does anybody know the magic incantation (button/key sequence) to disable the above. I'm assuming it must be possible, or it's a bit of an oversight on such as wonderful car.
Sick to death of watching the back end of a 911..!
(I have mega-speed rated racing-spec. tyres on order).

Better still, is there a full list anywhere of known parameters the user can tweak stuff with?

I have the one that seems to re-arm the SRS after routine maintenance (fitting of parking sensors) to start the thread off:

- Sit in drivers seat with key.
- Without foot on brake, press start button twice quickly to turn on ignition, all lights on dashboard illuminate.
- Wait until all lights go out, and BEFORE SRS light starts blinking (gota be quick), then press start button again one more time QUICKLY.
- Repeat above 3 steps 3 times. voilà! Re-armed SRS.

(There might be more to it, but it worked fine for my new 2010 GT 370z)

Failing the usual 'front door' config, does anybody use products such as this with an luck; seems to be just the ticket for a lot of things:

So what was the rpm at when you hit 155? I assume you were in 6th gear

And if all else fails, try this Flux Capacitor [FLUX62] - $175,000.00 : KaleCoAuto, Hard to find automotive items!

This is truly an amazing product. I bought one. I can do 0-60 in minus 4.7 seconds!!! Yes, -4.7 seconds. And the neatest thing about that? You can look in your rearview and see yourself at the start line! It's for sale becuase my Z is too fast for this planet. PM me and let's talk price!

Technically you have to do 0-88 in order to do it in negative time with the flux capacitor!

Hey just be thankful we have that high-performance lightweight paint, otherwise we wouldn't be able to break 140mph.

I think the TG guys said that for example the Bugatti veyron only needs about 270 HP for 155 mph but it needs the rest to go faster because of air resistance

Can you imagine how fast we'd go in space?

Oh wait, no air = no combustion. Dammit.

I've seen video's where people put their car on the dyno and show a view of its speedo to be like 'LOOK my (insert car) can go faster than top speed b/c of the mods i put in. yes, their mods may have made their car faster, but the biggest mod was taking out the wind resistance.

And let's not forget those NISMO stickers. You know they add about +50HP! Everybody knows that....sheesh!

Isn't that why they put those big ol' fans in front of the car on the dyno.....to slow it down?
