So im coming home tonight and hit an empty stretch of highway.

no were for the cops to be no other cars and I was like, what the hell! I havnt topped out the car yet,(dont ask why i havnt. i dont drive like a grandma just never had the chance) so i just push the pedal to the floor, watching the speed climb, the revs climb, and the noise from my exaust and annoying screaching sound from my sun roof get louder.

so i hit 180 i was like hmm no cut out yet, so keep givin her and about 185-190 (maybe?) Boom no more engine sound for a sec and i shoot forward in my seat, fairly hard to.

Is that normal or is that supposed to be softer

Speed/fuel cuts off at 180. I have no clue how you went past 180+.

You have an analogue speedo so you probablly were seeing things.

3

My car cuts very hard at 190 it sucks…

4

Are speedos are not that accurit. Also factor in that if you have differnt size tires then stock. And yes it hits hard, Even harder with boost.

5

Mine cuts out at 190 aswell and I have stock tire size.

The hard hit is normal.

6

actually were all just making it up to seem cool. All these storys are fake.

Ok so its normal. Cool

7

My KA hit uber hard at like 185 ish

my SR cuts very softly at 196

then i cut the yellow/green wire,

no more speed cut

8

Ahhh good old pin 32.

Haven’t tried it on the 240 yet, my speed cut is HARD on the celica at 180 flat, soft on my mom’s sonata at 185.

10

i think coupes with hud cut out at 180 and hatch’s 190.

thats what happen when i compared it to my friend

11

anyone been in a 2.5RS impreza when its cut out? hardest wildest hit i’ve felt in a car

12

my hud showed 177 when it cut out :frowning: maybe b/c of tire size??? i’m running 195/60/15’s

13

I’m pretty sure that’s stock size.

14

haha, the KA used to do that, 180-190 depending on slope? but the SR has been tuned, how fast? I don’t know, all the way to the 7 on my odometer

15

5spd conversion = no speed limiter

I have hit 200 before and it kept on going

16

Auto ECU = no speed limiter.

Auto ECU = no speed limiter.[/quote]

No I have a 5SPD ECU I just didnt hook up my 5th gear sensor :lol:

18

thought 205/60/15 was the stock size?

19

i’ve got an american car with the 115 MPH being the last thing listed on the speedo, slightly past the 180 kph. it always cuts out past the 115, i estimate around 190kph too… im running 205’s in the rear as well so i guess that makes it read wrong too. my cut isnt that bad, the pedal just sort of dies and you slow down and then “ride the speed cut” as we say in etobicoke :wink: <— DR

I did a 5 speed conversion, why do i still have speed cut then? splain urself
