My Surf doesn't like to go fast

I was coming back from Ocean Expo Park (worlds second largest aquarium) and as I was driving every now and then I would hear a beeping, I would turn down the radio and it would go away. I eventually found out, that when I go over 100kph, it would beep at me

Isn't 100 KPH only about 55 or 60 MPH?

Is it coming from the speakers of your truck? It may just be your CD Player. It kind of sounds like a door beep if you were to leave the door open or something. My moms Nissan used to do that too.

Nope, it's not coming from the speakers but from the dash as if I were to leave my lights on and leave car haha.

And I have the 3Y-E 4 cyl.

That's the speed alarm. There are vehicles in Japan that have that beeper. It's to inform the driver that you're going over 100 kph.
