Dang! I shifted at 6802rpm!!
coming back from the Neptune's Net(apparently this was the restoraunt that was featured in the Fast and the Furious...after they race the Ferrari) with other Maxima peeps.....saw a car coming fast and tried to get in front of it(so i don't get left behind our caravan)..tires hit loose gravel, lots of wheelspin, adn the tech shot up like nobody's business....later i reply the rpm reading and it said i shifted at 6802rpm!

WOW I though that maximas have a rev limiter. Isnt that bad for the engine to switch above the redline

but wow..that's amazing that he shifted at 7k...
does he have a RSM or was this just an eyeball reading?(cuz it looked like my tech hit 7k but the RSM was only(?) showing 6802..

LOL...i forgot to put a to my first post here...but anyways
what i remember from that guy he had an auto AE and he said that he shifted a few times already at 7k and he said that he doesn't have a limiter, i don't know if that guy BSed but 6800rpm is also cool man, don't get me wrong, maybe you can try at 7k next time

I once bounced off my limited 15 times on a mountain drive, freaked out during the first couple of times. But just keeping stomping the go pedal after that. Really love abusing the **** out of it, but seems like its good for the car!!=)

Your tach is off. 6800rpm that is pretty high, my old VG had a 6600rpm rev limiter, which I hit on ocasion.

Well I used to shift at like 7200-7500 rpm in my old SHO. A overhead cam motor is not as delicate as a pushrod motor. I have to be real careful not to overrev my LS1 as anything over 6200rpm is pushing it.
