        Ever been to Japan? Not too many places on public roads where you have the room to get to that speed!

          I've only ever heard of the Japanese standard 180km/h limiter. In an R32 GTR using stock tires (225/50/16) in 5th gear at 8000rpm you should be doing 191mph or 307km/h, although the fastest anyone i know has ever gone was somewhere around 280kph I believe.

                        I "topped" out my car during a trackday, managed 220-ish kmh in a mostly stock gtst, it was still pulling nicely, but the front straight was quickly ending

                        I say 220ish, because I have a 180km/h speedo, and it was well past 180, I figure it looked to be 220-230.

                        AKA: Plenty fast enough for me.

                        You can find me on the highways of the lower mainland doing the speed limit :thumbsup:

                          Iv hit 260kmh it feels like a rocket. You dont really see how fast your going till you look around and seeing things fly by! Tunnel vision.
                          Heart rate 160, I'm goin 260, RB26 run me past you in a jiffy
