Re: Top Speed?
The fastest i've gone is 125 but just to wussy to push any more... that and my friends grand prix GT's limiter kicked in so I felt bad and let off so he could catch up... I believe the GS-T's top factory speed is 130

Re: Top Speed?
Got my Talon ESi up to 120-125....near and after 100, it shakes and rattles like crazy. All this of course with messed up tires and a bearing almost broken. Now with the bearing replaced and still messed up tires, I doubt it be better

Re: Top Speed?
I had mine up to around 138 or so. But I think my speedo runs about 5mph high. That's when I hit the governor! I thought I blew up the car, the damn thing wouldn't let me accelerate any more until I dropped below about 130. Scared the shit out of me!

Re: Top Speed?
With my 97 GS-T, I have hit 140mph on the speedo, Governor kicked in...felt like I hit a damn brick wall, I was at 6300rpm when I hit that speed. I know what people are going to say....the GS-T governor kicks in @ 130mph (because of the H-rated tires, and mitsu trying to avoid lawsuits) But all I can say is I have seen my speedo at 140mph.
Cheers Ben

Re: Top Speed?
I have a stretch of highway that has a sod farm on both sides, nice and wide open.
When I used to run my Talon on the street I used to regularly run it on that road WELL past the indicated 140 mark. Back when it was bone stock it struggled but made it to slightly past the 140 mark. I've had my new 01 SS on that highway well past the indicated 150 mark, I think it's governed at 165. It felt very stable and was handling quite good.
