Altezza's RS200 limit

[gti-wly]

250km/h ? are u sure? altezza speedo is so overrated... have tried my top speed, the speedo niddle almost 6 o'clock, but my GPS only showing 209km/h.. the GPS has the accuracy of 3 meters.. and yup, before i got my car speedcut remove, i do fell as the gas paddle kicks back at me.. are all fly-by-wire throttle feel the same way ?

 

[pk47]

Last sunday tested top speed again when i come back from SIC, speed show on my GPS is 241kmh, but the speedo meter turn to 7 o'clock.
But yet i still don't like that i got bully by those turbo, i need a turbo!!!

pk47..ur car auto or manual?

 

[jasonchee98]

guys, just check wit all of the taikos here. what is the speed cut of stock tezza? 180 km/h? if mine can hit 200 km/h then only experience power loss, is it the final drive being tune before?

 

[pk47]

my one is auto. I heard my another friend who drove an Altezza, he said auto's top end is higher than manual because of the 5speed and 6speed gear ratio.

 

[TopSecret]

bcoz the final drive different 5 spd auto 4.1 final, 6 spd manual 4.3 ('02 model)

I think is not power lost. Actually is not enough fuel for the car to speed more then 180km/hr . This is due to the std stock ECU that control how much fuel to inject . Are you using std stock ecu with HKS sld type II speed limit defender? If you really want to solve this problem then get yourself a Toms ecu. Is very smooth and the air fuel ratio is very well set by the toms tuner in japan

I use to have a toms ecu those days and my speed is 220km/hr at forth gear in tip tronic mode and i didnt switch to D coz i m getting very near to a corner so need to slow down

The best thing using the toms ecu is there is no rev cut in tip tronic mode

3s- ge engine is a high rev engine . Did you watch the movie initial D? If yes , when the AE86 change the engine , it need to rev til ard 11k rpm then only the power comes in rite? same goes to 3s-ge but not till 11k rpm lar hahahahahaha

There is one member here that i knew using toms ecu , maybe you can ask him some opinion

So , my dear friend , consider getting one ? hahahahahaha

Btw for those who experience the speed ard 240km/hr plus minus, will feel a little vibration coming from under carriage.....so drive safe .


cheers

thanks mate. mine is all stock. u're clarification justify my driving exp with my current tezza. yea... i can feel the car has power at certain high rpm especially at 5K-7K. hmm... toms ecu. very interesting. let's cross my finger and hope i get the bonus soon. then perhaps can consider it. haha. any idea on the price range?

Dear Jasonchee98,

That time i bought mine was around 4k++ and is a second hand , New one will be around 7k ++ and when you buy new one you need to surrender your stock ecu to Toms in japan . Thats the terms and conditions by toms in japan

Early this year i bought new mines ecu and i need to surrender my stock ecu hahahahaha

ECU are not cheap my dear friend so you better survey properly first before you purchase , With that kind of money maybe you would like upgrade other area of the car first like suspension , lsd , final drive or those wear and tear parts until the car is in a perfect condition then only go for the ecu

Just my suggestion


cheers

share my experience.

my meter shows 180km\hr but Garmin GPS show 175km/hr.
The GPS only shows 180km\hr if go beyond 180km/hr mark on the meter .
Confirmed at 180km/hr on Garmin the speed cut come in.

So which is correct Garmin or Altezza Meter?. Sounds like Garmin is correct but
does altezza really cut at 180km/hr. No buffer meh... maybe 185-190km/hr

GPS devices' speed sensor is more accurate (with
lower margin of error/variance) comparing with the car's speed sensors lol...

yea... u have a point there. 4K++ is a bit too much. I guess upgrade the wear n tear first. Thanks for the opinion.

i just hit 180km/h on my GPS on the way back to kl. then press full throttle untill the pedal kick back. :p
yes, it kick back. and im surprise it is true...hahaha

nice.... but not for the cut off...

 

[davidgm16]

my experience, not really top speed yet at KL-Putrajaya highway, the meter pointing at 5 o'clock and my GPS showing 199km/h. yes, altezza speed meter is overrated, when it's pointing at 140km/h but actually GPS/actual speed only around 135km/h. Can prove the GPS speed is accurate coz it exactly showing the correct value while i try with camry and myvi.

 

[wfhan]

david got so many cars for diff occasion..
oops.. sensitive location errr... better edit.. lol..
btw, welcome back to KL lor...

 

[nksc]

actually not altezza only..almost all cars are like that..last time i check my integra db8 meter showing 195kmh,but on my gps was 190kmh..

 

[Dayline668]

Maybe upgraded rim n tyre..? Make a big diff in high speed..

Ya...I'm having a same experience. Pedal kick back after pointing over 5 o'clock and fully pressed. It surprised me too...!!!

 

[wfhan]

not necessary at top speed only the pedal will kick back.
i've tried tiptronic holding at "2", and rev til red line for a short drag sprint, it kicked back too..
