Speed Delimiting
Hi guys, what is the best way to get rid of the speed limiter in these cars? As I can't find any speed signal @ ECU.. which means I can't use an RSM.

There is a screw you remove on the gauge cluster and it removes the speed limiter. There should be a thread about it in the FAQ.

endless, you got any pics of your cars? I like looking at the RHD cars, and I've seen easyE's here about 1000 times, *boring* so lets see what you got!

Doing this has no effect on the power steering. It does not affect the speed sensor signal to the power steering, cruise control and AAS controllers, it only affects the 180km/h switch in the cluster that's connected to the ECU.

U sure about that?? I met some random rx7 guy and apparently his steering felt way light at high speed.. Gonna try it myself
I've went through the FSM but couldnt make sense of the single line diagram they provided.

There will be more than 1 screw you can remove, ONLY remove the one for the speed limit and nothing else will change, remove the other one and you'll effect the power steering above 80km/h

The online FSM's are for US models, which didn't have speed limiters.
