Skimmy237 Posted January 9, 2013 Posted January 9, 2013 Is there a speed limiter on my car ? As I had it in the massive road at my dads factory (3 miles) and I hit 110mph and it was ASIF it hit a limiter ? Just seein if I can get this off as I want to do track days Quote
smobey_sutton2 Posted January 9, 2013 Posted January 9, 2013 If your running a stock ECU then yes, you will be limited to 112mph. I'd recommend going down the management route. Tuning Developments will sort you out with their e-manage blue package Quote
micky boy Posted January 9, 2013 Posted January 9, 2013 (edited) You need a speedo converter mate that plugs into the gearbox Edited January 9, 2013 by micky boy Quote
Skimmy237 Posted January 9, 2013 Author Posted January 9, 2013 My speedo is converted to mph already, and ok how much is this gonna cost me ? Quote
smobey_sutton2 Posted January 9, 2013 Posted January 9, 2013 You need a speedo converter mate that plugs into the gearboxThought they just convert km/h to mp/h as the speed is read off the output shaft. Quote
morgey Posted January 9, 2013 Posted January 9, 2013 My speedo is converted to mph already, and ok how much is this gonna cost me ?How far around the clock does your needle go?Nearly to the end or about 2 3rds of the way?If nearly to the end they have just changed the dials/fascia not actually converted your speedoIf you fitted a convertor it would use the kph dials upto 180kph but actually instead of being 180kph it would be 180mph Quote
daniel_g Posted January 9, 2013 Posted January 9, 2013 I've not seen one for a while but you can get SLDs, speed limit defenders, wired into the loom to eliminate the limit. But if you are going to be getting a piggyback ECU then you wont have the factory limit anymore anyway !! Quote
morgey Posted January 9, 2013 Posted January 9, 2013 Im using a SLD about £120 + new may aswell save for a P & P or piggy back on these motors. For me it wasnt really an option Quote
Skimmy237 Posted January 9, 2013 Author Posted January 9, 2013 So what do I need to buy to do it right ? And how much will it be ? Quote
daniel_g Posted January 9, 2013 Posted January 9, 2013 Options are, Plug and play ecu, many benefits with these can fit them yourself, 5 mins research an you'll be clued up. Cost 500 + ish quid 2nd hand.Or go down the piggyback ECU route, EMB for example, someone needs to map it for you. Cost 550 at the cheapest and you will need it mapped again after every engine mod you do after the original map.Anyway both remove the speed limit, they do lots more than that though. Quote
james@cjperformance Posted January 9, 2013 Posted January 9, 2013 you can use a speed limit cut controller Quote
Skimmy237 Posted January 9, 2013 Author Posted January 9, 2013 you can use a speed limit cut controller Where do I get one of these ?All of that sounds fucking expensive haha^^ Quote
daniel_g Posted January 9, 2013 Posted January 9, 2013 As i said up way up there ^ you can get a SLD rather the management but you were talking about getting the car mapped the other day... Quote
Starbuck Posted January 9, 2013 Posted January 9, 2013 Slds can be picked up for about 50 second hand. Quote
Skimmy237 Posted January 9, 2013 Author Posted January 9, 2013 Ok man someone has mailed me thanks Will one from a gt turbo fit my glanza ? Quote
morgey Posted January 10, 2013 Posted January 10, 2013 (edited) No is long as it covers off toyota it should be fine, if you want to check just pop to fensports site and i think it states which version you need. Hks is type 2 i think but im not 100% sureNo it doesnt state which version but they are £123 + delivery on there Edited January 10, 2013 by morgey Quote
Skimmy237 Posted January 10, 2013 Author Posted January 10, 2013 James at cj has one for saleYea man think I'm gonna buy it Quote
har-vey Posted January 10, 2013 Posted January 10, 2013 emanage blue doesnt remove speed limit. i believe you have to go for ultimate to have that option.unless im wrong and i need mine sorting out but i had it done at tuning developments Quote
rasslenny Posted January 12, 2013 Posted January 12, 2013 im using a piggy back aem fic on my new build ... will that get rid of the speed cut??? Quote
