I have been told several times that there is a speed limiter on stock standard skylines. First i was told it was at 180, then when i exceeded that speed limit, i was told it was at 200...

Anyone have an answer for me? Thanks heaps...

i reckon i was pushing 200... i wasnt near the top speed for my car, and i went far past the 180 mark on the speedo...

anyone know how i could physically tell if i have one or not without going 200k's again?

the most common way of removing the speed cut is to cut wire #53 (its a yellow/green wire).

you could look at the wires from your ecu to check if it has been cut.

a 'speed limiter' or 'speed cut' works by cutting the fuel supply. its has the similar effect to the driver lifting their foot off the pedal. your power will usually kck back in at round 170km/h.

if u want to know the speed ur reaching, drive with someone that has a speedo that goes further, ie, to 240 or watever and measure off them, (though their speedo will probably be inaccurate as well, but at least u get the idea).

    • It is a kunfine Android screen . Does anyone know the wirering diagram of the fuga ??
    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
