Dont worry about that... Its boosted quite enough for now, and 2turbos certainly help to push me along to the speeds i want.
What im talking about is how everyone seems to have such long stretches of empty straight road that they can maintain a 200km/h+ speed for any sort of time. You run out of road pretty quick at the other end of your speedo.
Most of the freeways in melbourne are rigged with permanant speed cameras and id hope no one would be doing this anywhere near suburban areas!
Maybe i just need to move out to a regional area.

Really...what mods did it have....A Pod filter!..?..Bwahaha
I'm not beleiving what I want to beleive....I know you were'nt doing 240kmh in your NA VL.
If you don't beleive me just re-read this thread, almost everyone that has replied has reported speeds between 180kmh and 200kmh...which is realistic and about right.
FTR, I have had a VL Exec Auto as a hire car when almost new to just over 180, I had recently a 'Genuine' 140kw NA RB30 R31 GTS Skyline, which 'almost' hit 200kmh.

I drive to canberra several times a year. Between cooma and canberra there are some massive hills and dead straight road that you can see for about 5km. Quite often u'll be the only one there..... so u can get a little bit of speed up there.
hey does anyone know the laws in regards to how far NSW police can chase u into victoria if any?
Lets say i'm 20km from vic border, and i'm doing say 150km, if i get nicked by a nsw piggie, can i race him to the border (no towns between there, so no chance of roadblock) and closest vic pig station would be 60km away. Would u get away, or would they put a warrant out for the next time u enter nsw, or get vic pigs to get me?

You're obviously an idiot..

ok! that is the dumbest thing i have ever heard sorry but when i finally got my p's i cant be bothered if u get caught you clown your going to be without any oppertunity to drive till after your 21 well that would probally be the best thing mate your obviously a loose cannon!
If ever u dont have concern for your life at those speeds at least have some concern for others. For all u know a family could be coming home from the relos and u wipe em clean out. Come on mate use ur noggin

Clearly a retard and living up to your login name.
As for the straight road, there's 7 kilometres of straight flat road on the hume, near benalla,
my only concern would be boosting hard for any length of time in 5th gear.
Given that my car would probably do 175 kph in 400 metres, I'd only need a kilometre of road to see it's top speed.

I pissed in easy an 210km on a short straight...then I had to back off as I was approaching a motor bike doing 100km... As I was backing off i passed the bike and had a very quick look at the clock, it was on 195km....he must have **** himself I reckon...

To look at the bright side, at least you wouldnt feel any pain if you lost it at that speed on a bike. I think you'd just disintegrate.
gee i thought you'de travel time wen u hit 300 like bak 2 da future, i guess u were lucky poida, lol
btw another gr8 place 2 test ur baby out iz between geelong and melton, theres an open back road there, very straight most of the way and pretty much always no cars there
