davej Posted September 5, 2007 Share Posted September 5, 2007 So i've had the Z for just shy of a fortnight, now and finally after using a private road it ran out of go at an indicated 120 so that equates to 112 with the speedo error at that end, so back on the phone to the guy it came from. Me " you assured me that it would be delimited" Him" oh, well when we convert imprezas to mph it delimits it normally, we can do that for a price" Me " #*$% off it will, Him "ok, we'll see what i can do" G Gotta ring him monday, as he should have ordered the part, which thanks to you wonderful people i know is the HKS Speed Defencer!, A:what ball park figure should this come to, cos i can feel an arguement coming on! Dave, It felt ever so stable at the speed, even better than my alfa 166! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Argyll Posted September 9, 2007 Share Posted September 9, 2007 Apparently even 167MPH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sarnie Posted September 10, 2007 Share Posted September 10, 2007 Apparently even 167MPH Thought the zed was limited to 155mph? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beavis Posted September 10, 2007 Share Posted September 10, 2007 Apparently even 167MPH Thought the zed was limited to 155mph? It is on a UK zed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sarnie Posted September 10, 2007 Share Posted September 10, 2007 Apparently even 167MPH Thought the zed was limited to 155mph? It is on a UK zed Thought JDM's were too as Bigphil and TDI both posted recently that the HKS delimiters did not take away the top end limiter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

davej Posted September 10, 2007 Author Share Posted September 10, 2007 If mine was showing 120 that equals 112, with error, wouldn't 167/8 be about 155 with the error. as that would keep the error within 10% Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bronzee Posted September 11, 2007 Share Posted September 11, 2007 Apparently even 167MPH Thought the zed was limited to 155mph? Most of the 350's I've seen posted for top stock speeds in the USA, seem to top out at 155 or 156mph. Don't know if that helps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N15MNO-Daron Posted September 12, 2007 Share Posted September 12, 2007 Mine is totally de-limited without HKS defencer.. took them 3 hrs of messing abt with wiring but im looking forward to beating those speeds mentioned on here.. if its possible I dont think that guy has the right to charge u more than £200 for the item and installation.. just that fact that he mis-informed u the first time means he shud install it for nothing.

davej Posted September 12, 2007 Author Share Posted September 12, 2007 Slight update: So after talikng to the manager, he thinks that when they convert the speedo from mph to km's they may have forgotten to attach a wire to the ecu, to delimit it.... Sound plausible or talking ballcocks You decide Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N15MNO-Daron Posted September 12, 2007 Share Posted September 12, 2007 Yeah.. thats when they did mine.. at same time.. its unlikely they forgot.. but if they did then theyre a bunch of muppets and shud fit the defencer for free Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
