But out of curiosity you know how remove this limit? Software only I presume? Any idea of the cost?
Is it something a Nissan dealer can do?
Thanks!

I have read in several locations that the stock top speed is drag-limited and not governed. There are a variety of upgrades you can do to break that limit - uprev tune is probably the easiest/least expensive method and turbo or supercharger is probably the hardest/most expensive method

this is not true. ecu limits top speed on these cars. there are plenty of people who have gone over 155 with that taken off

my governor is removed which means top speed FTW, if I can find a road track to do it on.

Yes Arnold. UpRev seems to be your best bet.

Btw, is your full name Arnold Schwarzenegger???

I just had my Nismo tuned with UpRev at RT Tuning by Vince. He told me that he changed my top speed limit from 155 mph to 200 mph. So yes, our Z's is limited by the computer.
