RE: speed limiter

There is no speed limiter on these cars. You are governed by weight, drag and power.

RE: speed limiter

actually, my car governs at 198 or so KPH consistently, and i can do that at the beginning of 4th gear with tonnes more pull available...

RE: speed limiter

Is your car an automatic?

The USDM models are not governed.

RE: speed limiter

That is only like 125mph..? If your car is a TT, it should have no problem hitting 150mph (240kph).
I don't think the JDM models had governers...but who knows. Where do you live?

RE: speed limiter
