I just got my wrx this week. So this is on a bone stock car. I was running it through the gears on a nice section of road on the way to my parents house. When in fourth gear at around 120 mph the car seemed to stop accelerating and a horn sound went off. I am wondering what caused this to happen. has it happened to anyone else? Surely i can be the only one.
Btw- just got done adding a 3" Busher turbo back exhaust, that I picked up used this weekend from a fellow suby guy. Great diffence in acceleration from a stop and improved top end. I will get used to the extra noise eventually.

AFAIK all of the manuals are not limited. I have had my car up to 135 on the track. From what I remember the autos are limited.
Don't race anyone at 100+ while there are other people around. I would wish bad things for you if you killed someone. This weekend some jack off went flying past me on the shoulder doing over 100. I thought really hard about chasing him down and calling the cops with his plate number. I do speed a little bit when it is clear but not like this guy. Someone could do the same with you.
