I have been over 150mph in my 1992 400E. Are these things not governed? I heard that the 1992 - 1993 400E's were not governed. I know almost nothing about these cars except for they are fun to drive.

W124's
Sooo... basically as I was coming home last night from a party, It was pretty late and the freeway was completely empty - So I decided to take a little top speed run. I was able to get to 137mph but once I got there the freeway started to curve so I had no choice but to slow down. I wanted to see if it could go past 140 but ... I guess next time. And I forgot to mention, my right corner light fell out while doing this run. lol So ... Looks like I'm going to have to buy another set.

Well my new terra springs are softer and a lil bouncier than stock, so a stiffer shock like KYB's sound like the choice. but are they reccomended for lowered applications at all?
