speed limiter?
Do we have the normal 180 cut out on the aussie version? Unfortunatly i didnt have mine long enuf to test this. 28 days and counting.

Other sections of the forum were discussing this about a month ago. According to our American friends, the car is electronically limited to 148mph. That equals 238 km/h.
I know for a fact that the Aussie version will do >180. The fastest I've heard of was a US forum member claiming to have seen 145 mph on the speedo, and a Canadian who said he saw 242km/h. (Remembering of course that the speedo over-reads by 1-2%). How fast is your turbo '8 going to go kas? :) |
No turbo yet. no car yet.
If you remember a while ago I had major problems with my 8. Well my new car gets here in late november which has slowed the process down by well...months. It should have been done by now =(( |
Kas,
... And what happened to the old one - still in pieces at Mazda ;-) BTW, you said yor original one cost around $70K, what colour was it and are you getting the same with all the options for the "replacement"? Cheers, Tony. |
Hey Tony,
I'm getting the EXACT same car, well only different...err you get me. It was Sunlight silver. |
Hiya Kas,
you are indeed a lucky man - a new car and NOT a cast-off! So all is good again from next month - enjoy:-) Tony. |
thanks mate !
|
Sunlight silver. Excellent choice. :) :) :)
|
I've hit 192kmh.
I will be visiting the folks in the country next week.With lots of straight road and little traffic, i plan to see what she can do. |
Like I said in a previous post, 220 kph in 6th gear between West Wyalong and Hay. The engine didn't sound like it was under any particular stress and the car was flat and stable.
|
ohh goody....this will be fun.
