Hi, I just bought my GTS RB 25 Turbo model 1995 Automatic, My problem is that when the speed reach 180 Km and if I try to exceed 185 Km the engine refuse to drive faster!? some of my friends told me that there is a speed limiter fitted in the car but I dont know how to remove it?! one of my friends car can speed up to 250 Km and no speed limiter?! :P

If you cut the speed sensor wire though, doesn't it effect the Hicas, which has some component that is speed sensitive? There are devices out there that will alter the speed cut signal. Apexi RSM will do it, orange or blue screen versions. So second hand they wouldn't cost a lot, brand new they are only $450 NZ. This allows you to change or turn off your rev limiter, and change or turn off your speed cut. I got rid of my speed cut but slightly lowered my rev limit to further protect my engine just in case. Cool gadget, has the addedfeatures if you go that way, or timing stats, (and on the blue screen versions) the added G sensor allows you to measure the cornering G's your car goes through.

If you do intend to cut the wire 53, check, do lots of homework, and check again. LAst thing you want is the rear of your car to be activating the hicas randomly while pulling in exess of 190km/h.

It is definately wire 53 on the R32. I cut it and put it on a switch. The reason for this is it prevents you from exiting Hicas Diagnostic mode when the wire is cut. This is the only thing it effects on the manual. The automatic may be a different story. Comes in handy when you blow away an STi and he thinks he's gonna catch up...hmm I don't think so.

It should be a green wire with a yellow trace. Well it is on the 32 anyway. Good luck with the life ending.

]']same on the R32?

put in on a switch ? turn it on and off then u get a speed limiter that comes on and off?

WHAT DID I JUST SAY?

"your going over 180km/h without major mod's(stock ECU), hummm that would take some road, i wish i knew where the was a road like that around here, if you can drive for 100M without hitting a pot hole your doing well."

Not really, i've got a r33 gts-t with just an exhaust and bov and took it on the track. 180km is only about 5 grand in 3rd and it doenst take long at all to reach it. It's very easy to do.

i hit 180 almost everynite i got 2 work on the motorway,blacktown 2 silverwater, 11minutes is my best,but thats just squirtin 2 180 here n there

i wouldnt be saying things like above in a public forum. As im sure you people are aware that police browse through these kinds of forums now and then...and it doesnt take much for them to obtain your ip address and get your info from your isp and be on your back for doing 170+k's

so be careful :cheers:

    • After my last update, I went ahead with cleaning and restoring the entire fuel system. This included removing the tank and cleaning it with the Beyond Balistics solution, power washing it multiple times, drying it thoroughly, rinsing with IPA, drying again with heat gun and compressed air. Also, cleaning out the lines, fuel rail, and replacing the fuel pump with an OEM-style one. During the cleaning process, I replaced several hoses - including the breather hose on the fuel tank, which turned out to be the cause of the earlier fuel leak. This is what the old fuel filter looked like: Fuel tank before cleaning: Dirty Fuel Tank.mp4   Fuel tank after cleaning (some staining remains): Clean Fuel Tank.mp4 Both the OEM 270cc and new DeatschWerks 550cc injectors were cleaned professionally by a shop. Before reassembling everything, I tested the fuel flow by running the pump output into a container at the fuel filter location - flow looked good. I then fitted the new fuel filter and reassembled the rest of the system. Fuel Flow Test.mp4 Test 1 - 550cc injectors Ran the new fuel pump with its supplied diagonal strainer (different from OEM’s flat strainer) and my 550cc injectors using the same resized-injector map I had successfully used before. At first, it idled roughly and stalled when I applied throttle. Checked the spark plugs and found that they were fouled with carbon (likely from the earlier overly rich running when the injectors were clogged). After cleaning the plugs, the car started fine. However, it would only idle for 30–60 seconds before stalling, and while driving it would feel like a “fuel cut” after a few seconds - though it wouldn’t fully stall. Test 2 – Strainer swap Suspecting the diagonal strainer might not be reaching the tank bottom, I swapped it for the original flat strainer and filled the tank with ~45L of fuel. The issue persisted exactly the same. Test 3 – OEM injectors To eliminate tuning variables, I reinstalled the OEM 270cc injectors and reverted to the original map. Cleaned the spark plugs again just in-case. The stalling and “fuel cut” still remained.   At this stage, I suspect an intermittent power or connection fault at the fuel pump hanger, caused during the cleaning process. This has led me to look into getting Frenchy’s fuel hanger and replacing the unit entirely. TL;DR: Cleaned and restored the fuel system (tank, lines, rail, pump). Tested 550cc injectors with the same resized-injector map as before, but the car stalls at idle and experiences what feels like “fuel cut” after a few seconds of driving. Swapped back to OEM injectors with original map to rule out tuning, but the issue persists. Now suspecting an intermittent power or connection fault at the fuel pump hanger, possibly cause by the cleaning process.  
    • For race cars, this is one part where I find having the roll cage bar having gone through a hole in the floor better than the build it up on a ledge inside... The Merc I help on, the main hoop ends are marked on the car, and the jack is marked... Jack goes under a few inches and lifts one whole side of the car up... Removes that fight for long slim jacks for race car duties!   My biggest issue for the daily drivers I work on, is my jacks don't go high enough. The jacks start out on a few blocks, jack it up, then start a second jack under it on more blocks, and then I can get an axle stand under it. My axle stands are presently in use, and are nearly fully extended. The car is sitting with barely more than a cm of clearance to get the wheel off the studs! Sarah's Kluger is the same, as it has an ungodly amount of droop available in the suspension and a distinct lack of good jacking points!
    • Happy? Yep, my to do list is getting shorter and shorter. Either this light approaching is the end of the tunnel, or I'm about to be hit by a train... Ha ha ha   Also, Duncan isn't that far out of town that you need to make a multi day drive out of it. 😛
