I have an imported JDM ST203 with four-wheel steering. Best car i've ever driven (and that includes Scooby STi IV, Lancer Evo VII and Supra Twin Turbo). Not a lot of power, but handling out of this world.
Only problem is, it's restricted to 180km/h... There are Speed Cut Defenders available, but I've heard that all that's required is cutting one wire on the management computer. If anyone has any info or links it would be greatly appreciated. I am willing to experiment and post pics and results for other drivers with the same annoying problem. |

OK, I know it's been a while, but I've been rather occupied. Been driving the celi every day for work the last two weeks (My Sentra had
issues, begging for a SR20DET...). I finally found a stretch of open road, no traffic. Put my foot down. got to 5200RPM (just over 180 on the speedo), and then she cut out... Back to the drawing board. OK Kadett, will get some pics of the steering, the rears don't turn a lot though, just a few degrees. Makes a huge diff in handling though. It takes a bit of getting used to, coz when you throw it into a corner the first time, it feels like the rear is sliding... Can't live without it now though. |

Maybe the previous owner of my car realized the same thing and had it bypassed. I doubt it though.
