HUD stops at 125mph? - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

nevaland9 · 09-26-2007, 11:03 AM

Am i the only one that this happens too? I could of sworn ive seen it at 137 a few times after i got my turbo but now it just chills at 125 while the car gladly keeps accelerating. I was wondering if theres any thing i can do to fix this?

I've hit over 135mph in my auto KA24DE and then abother time it stalled at 125mph while the car was still accelerating I know this becasue I felt it and the rpm where still climbing.

Did you guys take out the speed limiter? Cuz my 240 cuts the fuel out at 123 mph.

No, my S13 KA24DE is stock and automatic

the oem ecu has a speed limiter thats what he meant. and as what he stated above.

The vehicle speed sensor sends a garbage signal after 125. Sometimes it might read good, most times it does not.

More than likely that is what you are seeing.

If you want to be a REAL MAN, get a road speed sensor, or wheel speed sensor.

If you want to be a real man, make sure you are only going 100+ mph ON THE TRACK.

my s13 5 speed cuts at 115mph

bloodangels13 · 09-26-2007, 04:50 PM

i've never had my HUD stall like that... ive seen it above 135 a few times... my old speed cut would hit at 119

MADE · 09-26-2007, 08:32 PM

Dude your HUD works it just doesn't want to encourage you.

Tops* · 09-26-2007, 10:48 PM

Just disconnect the speedometer all together, learn to be one with your engine speed, and drive 100+mph only at the track like ThatGuy said.

Leave top speed runs to exotics, you should be drifting

KiDyNomiTe · 09-27-2007, 05:20 AM

It goes past 150...
