Z limited at 250km/h
 

Hi all,

My Z (from EU) is limited to a top speed of 250km/h. No, I don't reach that daily :driving:
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!

Who knows, do you really need to go after than that?

UpRev

UpRev - Engine Management

:iagree: Had mine removed with the software.

uprev will take care of that.

@LakeShow not at all as I said, just curious :-)
Thanks for the link.

EDIT: no dealer in my **** hole, obviously...

I see you're in Belgium, like me. I'd give Tom a call or email at Custom Import Arts. He worked on my R33 GTR; Apexi PowerFC and clutch install. He's the only one I'd trust around here to work on my 370z and he has already tuned some other Zs with UpRev.

@FireDan
Oh, a Belgian! :-) Cool, thanks for the hint.

Off topic: do you go on tracks sometimes? I was looking for some Belgian partners to do so...

I'm actually an American living in Belgium. I'm in the military and live/work near SHAPE/Mons in the South.

I love going to the track and have done some track days at Spa, Nurburgring, Clastres. I've gone to Zolder and Zandvoort but haven't drove on the track there. Unfortunately it looks/feels like winter is here and I will be putting my car in storage soon.

Hi Arnold! ;)

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

Oh hai! :-)
I will try to be more and more active in here...

Arnold. Ive hit the limiter here on the Autobahn. 155mph or 250kph. So you did find it. Alot of German vehicles have the same speed limiter at 250kph.
There are a couple of German tuners if you dont have luck in Belgium.

Enjoy the car no matter the speed :)

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

Thank you for the correction :tup:

my governor is removed which means top speed FTW, if I can find a road track to do it on. :icon17: :driving:

You still got that GTR?

You guys are lucky in Europe those cars were never brought over here... sad

I love the R32 1994 V-Spec II GTR... but the R33 and R34 are awesome as well. I'm not a huge fan of R35 to be honest.

Don't have the GTR anymore :( Had to sell it because I'm moving back to the states in a few months. I was hoping something would've broke with the stupid import laws/regulations, but its ridiculous...so I got the 370z.

Great to hear that I can remove the limit! I live in Germany and its annoying that every damn 3.0l Audi Diesel is driving 250kmh too.

The 370z hits 250kmh with about 6000rpm so it can go faster...anyone know how fast exactly without limiter?

Great queston. wouldn't mind knowing this myself

A quick search and you would have come across this

i taken my to 169 gps and 175 by the speedo

I made a search but couldn't find anything.

Thank you :)

Woah. Other cars 155mph is just considered annoying, I'd like to visit this place:icon17: Here, it's a felony and reckless driving.

driving on the left lane sometimes requires you not to drive slower than 130mph...otherwise you will make your followers angry ;-)

Yes Arnold. UpRev seems to be your best bet.

Btw, is your full name Arnold Schwarzenegger???:p

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. ;)
