Just because a car has a theoretical speed doesn't mean it can reach it.

I reckon 297 was all a GTF has. That is 187mph.
The GT-F was stock.

All they did was remove the speed limiter and install a c.f. tail shaft for safety reasons..

Pointless exercise if it was tuned. Standard rev limit of 6250.
