Does anyone know the maximum speeds at rev limiter in all gears.

 

Also I've heard that UK spec cars are more prone to rust than Jap imports. Why is this so. Our cars are undersealed while Imports are not. Did they use cheaper panels on the UK cars.

First answer here.......

Second answer,They don't use salt on the roads in Japan,no real need to;)

Is it just a chip to remove the keep the green party happy limiter.

 

Also after the chip has been put in what revs/speed will the TT pull in 5th?

Another point for us autos eh Mac? :D

 

Not turning this into another debate but when you manual boys ever play a motor racing game on any old console: what transmission do you select AT/MT??! Bwaahahahahaaa! That proves it I think. We win again :D

Cheapest way to remove the limiter is a delimiter electrical gadget but as the 112mph limit is enforced by the ECU, changing this to a JWT/SE chip etc delimits it.

oh god here we go again

lol with the poer you need to obtain the theoreticle top speed of an auto the box woudl explode into about 55 pieces :D

 

so its pretty pointless lmffao.:D

 

you need a least 400 on the back wheels to obtain around 186 mph...

 

with the limiter removed around 160-165 is possible.

D'oh - dont spoil my illusions by getting factual :D:D

I guess then on a UK car its not really worth getting it chipped just to achieve an extra 5mph. Is this the only advantage for a £200-300 chip?

LOl are you serious?

you honestly think you will top out this car speed wise ?

And what chip are you talking about?

Day-to-day driving is about mid-range power and that is where you will notice a difference.

Its a superchip, ooooooopppps I was looking at the single turbo 300zx adds about 30bhp

 

The £511 300zx twin turbo adds 70 bhp :0 which I guess might get you above 175mph.

 

Asfor where I can top the car out - I travel to Germany sometimes and might go to Le Mans this year

I think if you do a search for "Superchip" you'll find bad things. Don't think they're recommended for the Zed.

 

Plus that seems a bit expensive - JWT are cheaper and more respected.

 

Pete

well first of have you got one yet?

if not how much are you spending on one?

lol the last ting you want to do is approach 150mph + and the car has knakered brakes - suspension ect, and all the rest that goes wrong with them.

id be suprised if you run it that fast (but thats me) no offense lol.

have you booked for lemans? were all going so we coudl all meet up then,.

Not booked yet, been off work for 3 weeks on study leave so will have to see if I can get moe time off so soon. Never been before but everyone who's been love it.

 

Been to Goodwood many times its great you get so cloe to all the cars some priceless. Last time Irvine nearly lost it on a burn out in his old Jag F1...... Foggy gre8t never seen a better bike burn out, bit best of all was a 1912 car with a 13 liter engine with 4 cylinders being drifted ........
