Does anyone have a scan of an actual full road test that lists the TESTED top speed? Thanks

Thanks to Fred Kim's site http://www.strictlyeta.net/se-r/articles.html you'll find the top speeds for the following:

1991 SE-R 125mph
1991 NX2000 126mph
1991 Infiniti G20 123mph
1995 Nissan 200SX SE-R 109mph (ecu limited).

GREAT link. Thanks. I wonder if any test ever got 130 mph.

Here we go with another thread where people claim how fast they have went according to there speedo (no offense to the people who already posted...)

If you dont have a GPS verified speed and your just going off the stock speedo then your inaccurate...

Couldn't agree more, Johnny. The question was regarding VERIFIED speed, not some anectodal stories people. If anyone has an additional magazine or controlled, technically-accurate test number, speak up; otherwise, let's not let this thread become stories of fiction and grandeur.

plus they dont test these cars on an infinitly long highway to get them to their absolute max. its tested on tracks for w.e amount of space. sure u let it roll down the highway for a minute ull get up past that speed but i dont think thats the point they are trying to make.

btw *** for fun my speedo went over 140 also doubt i was really that fast though. got from 120 -140 stooopid fast lol
