PLEASE

 

THANKS,

 

SUPRAMAN.CHRIS

 

PS.WHAT WOULD EVERYONE SUGGEST AS MY FIRST POWER HIKE MOD APPART FROM THE BLITZ BOOSTER AND BLITZ NUR SPEC EXHAUST SYSTEM?

WHY THE CAPS LOCK???

You be needing a top speed delimiter thingamagig. Most of the traders on here can get them i think.

In terms of power, may as well go BPU. Do a search for it and it will fill you in with what you need. Decat pipes, its the way forward.

Hi Chris

The speed limiter cuts in at 112mph (180kph) not 120mph. You can raise this limit to 180mph with a Speed Limit Defencer such as the excellent one sold by Thor Racing or cheaper crap ones sold on eBay and the like.

 

Please don't post in all upper case. Thanks

Welcome Chris

 

Seems like your car is still limited to 112 (lol) common practice in Japan.

You will need to get delimiter etc from somewhere like Thor. Do a search you should get loads of info.

 

Hopefully someone who is more technically minded will chip in...

 

In the meantime 70 is the limit

 

see told ya the lads have answered; actually I need to get a Thor unit cos my current one keeps knocking out the speedo, spoiler etc etc.

 

50

Welcome

 

This question is asked every few days, where did you do your home work mate ?

 

To remove the speed limit you're best off with the Thor unit (the limit is 112mph not 120).

 

For power increase you can do the BPU mods (aka decatt), should see you to 380-430 bhp dependant on the condition of your engine and ancillaries. Full details here: http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?t=35944

 

oh and lose the CAPS LOCK, it won't help you

Hmmm.....looks like there are alot of folk out there not liking the caps lock thing too! Guess it's the same as shouting in mobile text messaging? Noted!

Thanks for the suggestions guys (garetheves,jake,fiftyplus1 and homer)and i will double my homework efforts in the future homer! As i mentioned earlier i'm new but a quick learner with a passion for these beautifull beasts!

Hey Chris.

What did you mean when you said :

"IF YOU READ MY PROFILE YOU'LL KNOW WHERE I'M COMING FROM AND THAT I'VE DONE MY HOMEWORK ON SUPRAS"

All I can see in your mkivsupra.net profile is that you're coming from Falkirk, or did you mean some other profile?

 

Anyway, welcome to this site. It's a great place to find out just about anything to do with these cars.

Good luck with the mods. The best advice I can give is to ask (or use the search button) for advice here before you make any purchases. You're sure to get some honest (and experienced) advice before you have to spend any cash
