I was wondering if anyone had hit top speed in an 3.5 SE CVT?

I haven't, but I'm sure someone has. I've gone about 120 and it was as smooth as driving 80. My nismo exhaust was sounding beautiful at the time lol

Isn't the 3.5 limited to like 134 or something?

assuming you mean stock (no mods), dont believe the lies... I took mine to somewhere around 138-140 on the highway and mashed the peddle to the floor, there is no getting over 140 unless that s*** is tuned differently. So that's where mine capped out when it was a 3.5 cvt.....as far it being stick now, not sure....my baby was getting a turbo-kit put in her, so I didnt get to drive her much after I got to her after the swap....I'm in NY and my baby is sitting where it's nice and warm in Ga.

it wasnt as bad as i thought it would be, of course i had "shimmy" but i tell u what, U NEED A BIG BRAKE kit to slow down quick! when i slowed down it felt like it wasnt biting hard enough. i pulled off the freeway onto an exit-took awhile longer to come to a complete stop. Que no? Que ci?
maybe the Dangeris projectors will help? lol

you mean traveling SOUTH on the 15 right?i topped out a suzuki forenza going down that strip at 140. completely stock except for intake, exhaust and wheels. it wouldnt have been pretty to blow a tire going that fast :laugh:
