My Z came from Japan, I am not sure there is a limiter or not...

Do we need to make some modification to get full top speed?

Of hand, my Z dash only show a max of 180KMPH to 200KMPH.. i forgot.. got to go back and check

 

I do believe there is a speed limiter. That's why HKS offers a Speed Limit Defencer which overrides the speed limiter specifically for the Z. Check for HKS parts in your area or directly from Japan.

 

Anyone selling that in the US?
How much?

 

do all Z's have limiters on them? if so, how do i get my hands on a limiter?

 

I got the limiter at 255km on the digi and was 257km on the analouge(160.6mph)

 

The JDM cars have a 180kph limit and other markets a 250kph limit apparently (only found out about the 250 a coupole of weeks ago).

Unless you plan on going more than 150mph I don't see the point in removing the limiter.

 

Not me....

 

Yes, I plan to, how can I acquire this product and what is its official name for it and model name?

 

Wish I had an accessible track to get up to those speeds

Anyway the HKS version (assuming they have one for the Z) is called the Speed Limit Defencer. There's lots of other brands as well. Pretty much all Japanese tuning houses will have one.

 

Does it all work the same? what is the normal price i can expect out of it?

I have confirm that it limit my speed to 180kmph

The Z33 uses the Type III SLD. US prices for the SLD (don't know if the Type III for the Z33 is available here) is $100-150.

 

well, i am in malaysia, it definately much harder to find..

after getting this, wat top speed i can get?

 

I'd hazard a guess of about 270km/h maybe 280km/h before you ran into the redline. You're going to need a decent straight to get there and pull up again.

 

One last question, for different kind of limiter, does it perform differently?

 

I don't have any personal experience with them but I doubt it. All they're doing is removing the artificial speed limit.

 

so all Z's have the limiter? im still not clear on it... whats the difference /w the JDM? i feel clueless...

 

Cars sold in Japan are limited by law to 180km/h. At least that's my understanding of the situation.

Cars sold in other markets typically have no limt or a very high one. In this case Zs not sold in Japan have a 250km/h limit.

 

thx for the info

 

for the US market, with the limiter defence, can it go faster than 250kmph?

 

Yes, the same as yours although the JDM cars have more to gain seeing as they have a lower limit to start with.

No matter which car you're going to run into a limit set by gearing and rev limit. I don't have the final drive ratio or I could work it out but my guess is between 270km/h and 280km/h
