BASHTHEBISHOP Posted August 6, 2006 Share Posted August 6, 2006 I think this means its still collaborated in kmh instead of mph. I have done a search but cannot find out how to change it or unrestrict it. Help appreciated. Thanks Mark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest 2JayZ Posted August 6, 2006 Share Posted August 6, 2006 Hi, Ya so does mine, Maybe Toyota decided that above 70MPH you should be paying more attention to the road and doing less "cruising" :D Jay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
letmeshowyou Posted August 6, 2006 Share Posted August 6, 2006 why would you want to do this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BASHTHEBISHOP Posted August 6, 2006 Author Share Posted August 6, 2006 I have been told its down to a poor speedo conversion and the Thor one should sort it out along with my active spoiler issues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TLicense Posted August 6, 2006 Share Posted August 6, 2006 Nah it's just down to where the cruise control get's it's speedo feed. If it's before or after the convertor. You want it to be wired into the same wire as the input signal for the convertor, not after it as it will be as stock, so you need to trace the speedo wire from the C.C. ECU (look at the electronics manual on mkiv.com) and cut it and splice it into the speed signal wire that's going to the convertor. It should work up to something like 120.

jamesmark Posted August 6, 2006 Share Posted August 6, 2006 mines goes over that, used the thor delimiter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TLicense Posted August 7, 2006 Share Posted August 7, 2006 It doesn't matter which delimiter you use, it's down to where the speed signal feed for the cruise control comes from. You want it to come from before the convertor. The Thor unit has a 1:1 output so you can wire it into that, or save yourself the expense of the Thor unit and wire it in before the convertor. 6 and 2x3's.

silvershark44 Posted August 7, 2006 Share Posted August 7, 2006 my active spoiler comes down at 90mph rather than 60mph. Can i use this same principle to alter the active spoiler to activate at the right speed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TLicense Posted August 7, 2006 Share Posted August 7, 2006 Yup Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnA Posted August 7, 2006 Share Posted August 7, 2006 I admit that I don't know how cruise control works, neither do I care to know. I just pay attention so that I don't engage it accidentally. Total waste of space, IMO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scoboblio Posted August 7, 2006 Share Posted August 7, 2006 I use mine when I'm in roadworks with a 40 or 50mph speed limit, works amazingly well as a pitlane limiter type thingy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt H Posted August 7, 2006 Share Posted August 7, 2006 Mine doesnt go over 70 either which is a shame cos the only time i would ever want to use cruise is on the motorway and who drives at 70 on the motorway?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ManwithSupra Posted August 7, 2006 Share Posted August 7, 2006 Mine goes up to 88mph then i can go back or forward in time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete Posted August 9, 2006 Share Posted August 9, 2006 This Thor diag indicates how theirs is wired with a 5/8 signal - not 1:1 as suggested above. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j1mb0b1 Posted July 13, 2009 Share Posted July 13, 2009 (edited) This Thor diag indicates how theirs is wired with a 5/8 signal - not 1:1 as suggested above. Could someone explain in more detail to what I have to cut or swop about to sort this issue out ?, I have the same problem as above my CC will not go past 70mph Thanks Jamie.

Thor's diagram above looks correct and good to go... if you can't suss it out from that maybe you shouldn't cut wires (Honestly not trying to put you down, but I can't think of a better way to explain it than that diagram does ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest bj74cruiserguy Posted July 28, 2009 Share Posted July 28, 2009 My wife had the speed limiter in her Soarer cruiser control removed. There was a fix on the Soarer owners club site. I have been told by JDM Supra owners here that the CCs in these are limited to 110km. That just doesn't cut it as the drive from Regina to Calgary takes 8 hours and the traffice goes a legal 120 all the way. Do any of you know if the Soarer CC fix will work on the Supra?
