i was just wondering why my car doesnt top out at 120 instead it goes higher. i got a 97 ka into a 90 240sx with the sohc ka24e transmission. im thinking maybe the speed sensor isnt working properly since the transmission is over 220k miles. let me know thanks

do you have wheels? I don't know if that would make your speedo read faster than when you agtually are...and if it would it would probaly cut you at a lower speed...nevermind...

I have a 93 with stock wheels, only bolt-ons. I kept up with my buddies car on the highway, we wet up to 136 and I stayed with him, heh.
