Last time I looked 180 mph was faster than 180kmh. So why is he dising it. that would just make it more impressive. (if it was, which it isn't) |

I've seen mine at the h in km/h when the speed cut hit. Felt like it cut the fuel feed or something until the speed dropped back to 180. I think your e manage will remove the cut Dom |

Regards removing the speed limiter.... Because altezzas are JDM product.... Are the cars properly fuel mapped for speeds in excess on 180km/h

Why would they not be? The engine will still be revving well within its range. Mos. |

i just have a quick question... who was filming... if it was the passenger he must have been in the lap of the driver (who needed to change gears in there somwerhe), and if it was the driver... well - that throws open a big range of problems that i'm not even going into... and of course everyone here is talking about doing anything over 110 on closed and private roads... we wouldn't be talking about speeding on public roads on a forum would we? ringo |
