Picture this you driving along in your new GT-R in Japan and you get a huge open stretch of highway to open up the fury of Godzilla. Would you be somewhat peeved to find out that the new GT-R is going to hold you at 180km? The guys over at the GT-Channel have just reported that the Japanese spec GT-R 's GPS /electronics system limit the top speed on every day roads to 180 km , which comes out to around 110 mph. We guess the new GT-R is so much of a beast that it had to be tamed on Japanese roads.
What happens though when you get to the track? The GT-R's electronics system and GPS communicate with each other giving one very satisfying result- No speed limiter at all so you can let the GT-R breathe fire.
What happens for United States drivers ? You 'll be happy to know that they are limited to 250 km (156 mph) meaning you get a little more top speed than Japanese GT-R drivers. We are sure though that when you hit the track, the GT-R will act right and let you feel the full power/top speed of the GT-R.
