I can honestly say I dont think that it will top at 165, my z has no problem getting to 155mph so I think it could do better then another 10 or so mphs before gassing out. The big problem is at 140mph the sport version starts to get alot of lift on the front making it really unstable and quite honestly scary.

Weight has almost no impact on top speed, its just drag and horsepower. Weight might have a very minimal impact, more rolling resistance maybe. But 400 lbs lighter might give you an extra 1mph top speed at best.
If you dropped 800lbd off your Z, you have the same body (same cd) and same power, same top speed, or at least very close. Last edited by NissanGuy23; 10-04-2012 at 08:27 PM. |

 Weight only really only matters in reaching the maximum accelleration since the motor will have less to push forward in a lighter car(given all else is equal). The real factors are air resistance & drivetrain loss/rolling friction. The difference of weight at high speeds would have to be substantial to have a real difference in top speed. Hypothetically, I think a 2,800lb Z will have nearly the same top speed as an identical 3,600lb Z, but the heavier Z will need more time and more room to reach it.
