Trying to remove my speed cut

So I've had my r32 coupe for a bit now and I want to get around the 180kph limiter. Originally the car was 25de auto but has been swapped to 25det s2 with 20det manual. It also has a z32 ecu. I've seen that disconnecting the vehicle speed sensor wire (pin 53 if I remember correctly) from the ECU can stop the limiter working (while also interfering with power steering) but this did not seem to work for me as I put in a switch to easily disconnect and reconnect it but it will still stop at 180kph regardless. I am unsure about installing a speed limit defender right now as I havent had time to do any real research into it especially with the mess of wires that goes into the ecu from all the swapped things and stuff. 

I'm really not to sure what I'm looking at and why it's not doing what it's supposed to so if anyone has some more experience and can help that would be sweet. Cheers guys.

Mate, it’s a Nissan specific ecu module.

Nistune is a real-time tuning suite designed especially for Nissans which provides the ability to:

• Retune factory Nissan Engine Control Units (ECU)
• Monitor gauges and map tracing on your ECU
• Data log from your ECU using consult, wideband and auxiliary inputs
• Perform playback using graphs, gauges and map tracing
• Connectivity for up to two emulators simultaneously
• Loads and Saves files in regular and odd/even formats for chip burning (EPROM/FLASH)

Be sure to get one that is compatible with your engine though it’s not one fits all:

Wouldn't it already have to be a nistune, if it's a z32 ecu running an rb25?

I wasnt 100% on if it was nistune or not but indeed it is. I've still never done anything with an ECU but in short am I able to find somewhere who can plug in their laptop and just remove the speed limiter or is there more to it than that.

Yes.  Anyone with Nistune software and the required Consult-USB adapter can do it in about 2 minutes.  I'm dead surprised that it is still enabled!

Yeah that's one of the things that was throwing me off. I didnt expect it to still have the limiter if it was aftermarket. Cheers for the help. I'll find a place to get it done. I'd be so lost without help haha.

By default the setting is left at 180km/h for both Speed Limit 1 and 2.

Where do you live? I may be able to point you to a tuner.

Sorry for the late reply, I'm in hamilton. Going to a place I think can do some work tomorrow. Speedwell tune and service was recommended by a workmate so I'm trying there.

      I think the pic in the first post is another car, and post 7 is OP's car with standard arms and swaybar swaybar swaybar. I can't tell what brand the silver coilovers are, and even if I could I don't know whether the spring rate is OK, if you can find a brand on the shocks and numbers on the springs that might help. Also, if you can measure the ride height from centre of your wheel to the guard that will help with advice too as handling suffers if ride height is too low

      In the first photo you posted, the colour of the control arms are the signature colour for Ikeya. Same for the swaybar, signature colour for Whiteline.  I like Hardrace, they also do hardened rubber bushes if your car is mainly a street car.  I like GKTech as well, but they use a lot of rose joints in their stuff so might not be the best choice for everyone.  The system might have been good back in its day, but it's a prehistoric system now. I suspect that most people have removed the HICAS as they want the car to do what they want to do, not what the car wants to do. From what I also understand, it isn't consistent in it's behaviour on track so it's hard to trust the car/know where its absolute limits are for track use.  Having said that, I think the HICAS eliminator kit was the first thing I installed when I bought my car. I don't personally have any experience with the HICAS system on a race track.

      Thanks for the info. Didn’t know I had aftermarket control arms already? Will talk to my garage. What brand would u recommend if I want to play around with my camber more? I would think my camber is around stock level right now or more negative now due to lowering with coilovers. I will be lower her again 1.5 cm to get some more.    also why does everyone like to remove the hicas system? Is it because most don’t work properly anymore or ppl just don’t like them. Mine is functioning as it should be right now.    thanks for the good info

      It looks like you've got Ikeya control arms and an aftermarket sway bar, maybe whiteline?  Or am I just going crazy? lol Unfortunately it won't, but what it will do is look really pretty. That's about all unfortunately.  How much neg camber do you currently have? Generally lowing the car dials in quite a bit of neg camber as it is. If you do go down this path, your best bet is get adjustable arms, toe arms (or preferably a good HICAS elimination kit) and traction rods. With all 3 being adjustable, you'll be able to dial out any bump steer that is introduced by playing with the camber settings.
