Govna' bypass

[samiam]

Just seeing if anyone has gone with a new speed limiter bypass unit that bypasses your govner.....Its a JDM piece(atleast the one I keep seeing).

Well, here's my question: even if you remove the governor, there still is a limiter in the fifth gear, isn't there (just like there is in the fourth and third, so on and so forth...)? Am I right?

dont quote me on this but ive read that if its a manual you can crawl under your car and unplug the 5th gear sensor - thus removing the limiter by the ecu not knowing the rpm
someone correct me if im wrong i have an idiot factor

[S13Grl]

So, I also may be correct then; there is a limiter in the tranny as well. So by just getting an ECU or cutting the wire, you may not be able to solve anything.

GH606, two half-idiots make one non-idiot; maybe we're right?

if you have a SOHC, don't cut the wire at the ECU like it says on 240sx.org    even though the directions were for a DOHC i thought what the ####...  yeah well don't do it unless you're wanting to lower you're top speed to 90, and only rev to 4500 in 3rd gear. just a warning for people with 89-90

IIRC, the tranny sensor is just the sensor for the ecu...they're not two separate entities.  Supposedly, you can take the sensor out of the tranny, so the ecu won't get a limiter signal...or replace the ecu so it won't care if it gets a limiter signal.  Or something like that....make sense?

The only reason I asked is I was interested in getting one. My friend has a sr20det and he doesnt have a top speed and he's using his domestic tranny not an imported one. Actually the crank something has the limiter that effects your tach not the tranny sensor......I know that much.

When a jar is half ful it is also half empty. Look at the positive side <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=';)'>.!!!
