speed limiter question
Wednesday, December 06, 2006 7:26 PM
Just a question, do honda civics around 95 yr models have a higher speed limiter then our cavaliers?


Only reason i am asking because i was on the insterstate minding my own biz when a honda jump in front of me and punched it so i did the same and i keep having to get off the gas cuz i was going to run into him but then i hit the limiter and it seem he keep speeding up a little.

Just wondering.

Guess i am unclear, I reached my limiter before it seemed he did. So i am wondering if the hondas have a higher limiter then cavaliers.

yes...they have a higher limiter than you do...so do other GM cars.....i dont see why everyone is beeing jerks about it.....we cant talk about breaking the limiter but i never see a shortage about people telling others what its set at...

to break it involves a myriad of penalties -- odometer tampering, reckless driving/endangerment, etc...

unless your car can trap over 108, there's no need to disable it

Also there's only 2 reasons to disable it

1) your car is modded enough to trap over 108 legally (1/4 mile closed course) -- at this point you should know how to do it on your own, or be able to find out through various resources. To ask is not necessary
2) illegal racing
