Supra-Iceman Posted April 4, 2007 Share Posted April 4, 2007 My car is a Jap spec and i don´t have any limit when i pass 180km/h! Is there a speed limit on all supras Jap/UK/US ? Which options is there if you want to remove your speed limit ? I have been told that my speed limit is gone because I got a UK chip in my car!? So my speedometer is showing KM/H but my odometer is Mph!! could that be the reason ? Or i must have a speed limiter unit somewhere ? I hope someone can answer on this questions //Thanks!

JustGav Posted April 4, 2007 Share Posted April 4, 2007 Sounds like you already have a de-limiter fitted.. Wouldn't bother changing it if it works. The J-spec ones are limited to 112mph, not sure about the UK's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob Posted April 4, 2007 Share Posted April 4, 2007 You must have a de-limiter fitted somewhere if the odo is counting in miles. Something will be dividing the signal by 5/8ths. Is the speedo correctly reading in K/PH or is it M/PH but still with the old 180 K/PH dial fitted, in which case you just need to fit a replacement dial, if the speedo signal is also divided.

JustGav Posted April 4, 2007 Share Posted April 4, 2007 Hmmm, is Sweden metric by any chance? Just wonder if TRD do a 320km/h dial... would be a little pricey but would look right on the dash.. Then remove the convertor and just have a delimiter fitted. http://www.mvpmotorsports.com/Templates/frmTemplateM7.asp?SubFolderID=916&SearchYN=N http://www.mvpmotorsports.com/Merchant/catalogpics/mk4/TRD_83110-JA800.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But my Odometer is showing Miles!! When i got the car it was the stock "180km/h" meter... but i got a TRD 320KM/H from Japan and installed it and works great very accurate, I have checked with my GPS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supra-Iceman Posted April 5, 2007 Author Share Posted April 5, 2007 Where should i look for the de-limiter ? Where should it be placed ? Thanks !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Posted April 5, 2007 Share Posted April 5, 2007 No thats a tricky one. For instance my one is wired ito the plugs for the speedo face and Odo pod and sits behind the dash board. TBH I don't see you have a problem, your speedo works and your odo counts in miles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JustGav Posted April 5, 2007 Share Posted April 5, 2007 Somewhere behind the dash, there will a set of wires going from the 8/5 convertor going to to the odo, this sends 5 pulses for every 8 it receives to the odo, making it count up in miles rather...

I'm still suffering with them, I eventually rolled back to using km/h stock and removed the convertor... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
