does anyone know a method of removing the 180 kmph(110mph) on Jdm cars? Is it as simple as cutting a wire or is there a module to do this?

no i'm not joking ... an i have tried this before more then once.. yes it is a waste of gas once you get to those speeds and you can end up damaging something... but it shouldn't damage you clutch .. and don't expect to brake any speed recoreds your only going to get a 8 or 10 mph over but you won't get shut down ..

I've still never hit any speed limiter in our cars other than them just bein danged slow lol. I figure when you're doin 6000ish RPM in 5th gear there isn't any faster to go.

Honestly, though I don't think you'd make this up, I don't see how it's possible. The hazard lights aren't linked to the ECU in any way, it has no idea of if they're on or not, and why would that cut the limiter out? I should know, I know Celica wiring by heart pretty much. Unless somehow it cuts out the speed signal entirely. I'll check the diagrams.

*edit* Okay I just double-checked the diagrams, and the hazard warning lamps circut is entirely seperate from the speed sensor and ecu wiring. I see no possible way that turning the hazard lights on would change anything.

I wonder how many people went out last night driving over 100 mph with their hazards on though.... LOL!!!

pmsl @ the hazard lights idea. Pure genius.

You can just cut a wire, but I wouldn't. I think the ECU needs to know how fast the car is going for various bits and bobs, so I wouldn't do it unless you're utterly utterly sure.

I bought a blitz black box that seems to do the job well enough.
