I had mine removed on my G35. It should be possible for the GS but there are few companies who will work with this platform. Not alot of following

Brave man. I'm not too sure how may times you would need to go faster than the govern speed limit. 145-150 is still pretty darn fast.

i agree...you cannot control the car if anything get in your way. I know its cool to post things up like this but it is more uncall for IMOP.

The guys asking a question. just answer him.

if you guys dont like the speeding then dont do it, and dont reply. we all know what could happen.

and i agree hitting speed cut is annoying. i still havent gotten rid of mine, but i got a 1st gen with a gte and my cut seems like 120mph. kills me everytime i hit it

Aha I hit it once at around 150 at 2am on the 5N. Figured how crazy it would be if there would be a pothole or something on the road so I'll never hit the limiter again. But damn what a thrill to punch it all the way!

So how do you remove the limiter?? What do you need to buy and how much would it cost?

The stock GS feels so stable even at 130.
