How fucking annoying is that speed limiter, lol

Cuts the power totally for about 5 seconds at a time.

We failed to keep up with a E46 320 diesel bmw on the way back from saarfend because of it, lol
(billy cabrio off here)


This was on a private road that looks a bit like the m25, not the real one obviously as that would be illegal.

 

Does it still have the 110mph limiter on it or do you mean the fuel cut when it hits 1 bar?

 

what speed does it cut in

 

As the wheels are a bit bigger, its been moved up slightly, its about 120 on GPS

 

Any old excuse!!

That private test track is gooood, nice of them to open so late for us too!

 

Ahh, first thing i did with my Celica Gt4 was seeing if it was still limited, its not.

Has he turned the boost up yet?

Had a tinker with mine Monday night and now got it running 0.9 bar in every gear, but cant go hard at it in 5th otherwise it overboosts over 1 bar and the fuel cut kicks in.

Need a fuel cut defender now.

 

It runs a bar of boost.

Its not exactly quick, but at the same time, its certainly not actually a slow car.

Should be reasonable on track I reckon, although needs new shocks IMHO

 

gotta love that speed limiter

the wind noise thru the wing mirror is FAR more annoying than the speedlimiter tho

 

just ordered a decat pipe and intercooler off ebay

 

its started, lol

so much for not modifying it

next it will be a remap at MSD I expect

 

The intercooler is a bit of a bitch to fit (did one on my mates).

Get Chip or someone to knock up a shroud to channel the air through the cooler, otherwise they let loads in round the sides when fitted.

Remember, the decat means it wont pass the emissions on the MOT.

No more mods Jim!

 

PON, read somewhere there's a loophole re: decat and imports, not sure how true that is.

other than this the only thing i want to replace is the wheels with standard ones

 

Standard? Whatever floats your boat mate!

 

its called having a nice mot man. I am jealous of you have this car Jim, Pon took me out in it once, when i still had my n/a one. wanted a turbo since but i have no excuse for one really

 

yeah, cant stand the tramlining and you feel every little bump too, hoping some of thats down to the lowprofile tyres

 

Your tart, if you want a comfy ride you buy a big audi, not a hairdressers car like an MR2.

 

i helped my mate stick a turbo lump and box in his mr2, deffo go quite well standard, but when you up the boost, the fuel cut thing is very gay lol, he had a defender thingy on it and it did go prety well after that

 

i bet you were on ebay as soon as you got in last night shopping
