There has not been a time sence i have had my ex that i have not floor'd it... no joke.

and it go's like hell.

A LSD in my dreams.

I start from the bottom of the PIC to the top left. The last turn is the

hardest one bec. once you come out of the apex , the straightway is not

90 degress but it kinda bend down more like a boomerang. The fastest I

turn there is around 50-55 MPH and it`s kinda oversteer sometimes after

the apex.

I guess bec. I`m still driving the car with a winter booth and I normally

turn the VSC off.

This is a one way road that leads to a highway or airport express highway and connects to an Interstate 94 at the very end.

In the morning, you could hardly see cars travelling this road.

The fastest I drove to this airport express highway is aroung 125 MPH.

I was driving a customers EX once and could not get this noise to duplicate until I went for a ride with him. We pulled out of the dealer and he proceeded to mash the throttle. To replicate the conditions I had his permission to drive it in the same manner. The problem was resolved and the long term shift logic had adapted to constant full throttle acceleration so the car was indeed pretty quick for what it is.

Great use of Google there Allan. I too would drive as fast as humanly possible on such a road if this magical place existed in my area.

My shift logic is more then likely like this but is there any way to reset my ex's tranny logic and beat the hell out of the car in order to assure this?

Without having the ecu kill my Plus 2 ?

The transmission control module will recognize lighter driving and adjust accordingly. It has a hard stored "economy" mode so light (<1/8) throttle input will incur short shifts and almost full TCC lockup at ~43mph.

code in order to reactivate? I remember Honda uses 5 digit codes in order

for the audio to work again when the battery or neg. has been removed.

MY 08 Toyota didn`t need one. I don`t recall any audio codes from my

Infiniti manual or paper work......

Besides wetting my pants, is there any negative outcome in the long run

using Manual mode 99% of the time ?

hehe, you should, it's a nice feeling

I am pretty sure the EX is doing the same thing...
Maybe a month later I will start messing around with ECU tuning and see what the EX is capable of!

mcheddadi ... I think that if there's anything more exhilarating than flooring the Ex35 .... it's taking you for a ride in this little hotrod.

Everyone who floored this, does the engine accelerate in a smooth fashion, or did it rev high and then shift gears. What was the noise like? Did it feel like the engine was going to fall out?

Please explain. This is helpful.

First, my AWD Journey maxes out at just under 145mph. But not even close to a redline. So, obviously, the speed nannies (who are in this case probably more than correct in doing so) don't really want the thing fully exercised.

Shifting was fine all the way up. No redline at any speed.

As others have said, acceleration above the speed limit is, let's say, not what I have seen on Formula 1 on TV. No other experience to base it on, but I note it's a lot harder to make 3500 lbs move 70 - 140 than 0 - 70.

The most surprising thing was how solid things felt at these high speeds (above 120). Handling was fine. MUCH less noise or vibration than you might expect. Even the sunroof wasn't too bad.

Only complaints (beyond the disappointment that I couldn't get to 150) were that a few grasshoppers (locusts) got in from the sunroof and that it turns out high speed further compromises 3G reception (already weak in the middle of nowhere) to point hat Pandora cut out on me in the middle of a fine Elvis tune.

All in all a fine time getting away from getting away from it all. I'll probably never do it again.

FWIW, Apr 2008 issue of C&D listed 2008 EX35 AWD Journey at 4032 lbs.
