I've seen dunk300zxtt's piccy that shows 180 on the clock, mine is restricted currently so 120mph max. I know most of you guys have modded your cars beyond recognition from the original. But I REALLY want to keep mine standard (maybe exhaust and breather kit). After I derestrict it what am going to expect.

If car loses some mass, what is the theroetical limit then ?;)

201mph. It's to do with the gearing, not the mass.

I had 145 out of mine, then realised the combination of 9 year old car with unknown service history, known problems with Zed anyway and a prison sentence if I got caught wasn't worth pushing it anymore.

 

 

Yes, at 145 it was still pulling and I have no doubt I could have bounced off the 155mph speed limiter if I had kept going :eek:

 

 

Not bad for a 6K car :D:D

Hi Rod Dude!! :D

 

This is the full piccy...

But I have to say it is not my Z, and I have no idea who's it is :(

 

The fastest I have been in my Z is 140, and it was still pulling despite clutch slipping a bit :mad: oh well.....A new clutch, de-cat pipes and some Hyper Performance intercoolers should make it a bit more enthusiastic to get to the 155 limiter.

 

Theoretically, a manual gearbox car can reach 200mph in 5th at 7,782rpm ;) :p but surely you must have 500+hp and a revised rev limit.

 

What about the auto? What rpm does that hit 200mph? less than 7200? i.e. stock rev limiter?

 

Fast Eddie.....what kind of HP you got to get 170 odd mph???

 

Thanks in advance all...

 

Robert

Just had a look at that pic, it looks like that has 35mph/1000rpm. Reading Autosports review fron 16 May 1990 :p the manual g/box has 25.7mph/1000rpm.

 

So I reckon it is an auto...

 

Robert.

On my privately owned test track I had 160 and ran out of space/clear road. It was still pulling pretty well.

My mods are boost upgrade, Blitz induction and cats out full stainless exhaust....(oh and its an auto) :D

Good question, I took the car out for a blast just after Dave (ex mechanic) @ SE set my mota up, it was the fastest it ever was.

 

When Pete got his hands on it for the Dyno and further tuning he said he could only get 400 (Flywheel) out of it with detting!! This was after some modifications so really I can only estimate it was around the 400 mark, car never felt the same since.

 

I have ported heads which some people have said may help for top end.

 

Just for your info my speedo was just slightly over what your piccy shows. (Ahh the good ole days) :rolleyes: I have on tape the experience but I don't think it's on the Net anywhere.

But I have to say it is not my Z, and I have no idea who's it is :(

 

...disappointment mate, although 140 is still twice as fast asyou should be going :D :D

 

Regards

Me too, seems like it's far too easy to get them these days, especially on the new stretch of the A130 in ESSEX.

Is that the one that goes from the A12 towards south woodern ferrers. I love that bit. It's so dam long and straight. Do that on my way to parents in Maldon
