Ive done about 130mph in my Y8, so I can see a GSR going 140mph. Though I cant say from experience if the GSR can do it or not, just figured with an extra cam and .2 more liters of displacement and better gearing it could be plasuable.

Yes its very real especially if its a cable trans from a ls The final gear in that biatch is long as hell and remember it comes down to the ecu if it is chipped (no governor )it will definitely make it. Ive taken mine up to 135 I have a hatch though too lite in the rear to push it further.

i have personaly been in the car its a peice! it has a ls computer i have a delsol with a b20 and no revlimitor and i pull the car almost three lenghts!
but i guess it does depend on the gearing and condition of the set up, he dosent even have the conversion kit to even have the cable tranny in the car but thanks for the imput

with enough space and the right hill any car can get to 145. It's really not as fast as some people make it sound. If my stock VX can get to 140 then a GSR should have no problem.

BUT, the stock ECU should be speed limited...
