E30 top speed limiter

[Bimmerboy91]

in my 325 i think i was goin at 2500 rpms in 5th going 100 if i remember correctly

Your speed cut is determined by your ECU, not your cruise control.

strange ive got a 3.73 and ive hit 115 in 4th before the limiter cut me off

ive gotta test out this theory kuz i hacked out my cruise control unit a while back so in theory i should have no more limiter if i understand correctly

[Erick]

Because you probably have a 3.73 rear end.

[Bimmerboy91]

when i had my cabrio i was getting redline in 4th gear at like 100

[Erick]

I've done a calculated 150mph (4th gear redline)

11/88
325i Automatic (Now 5 speed)
2.93 rear end.

i was doing about 150and change in my 944 turbo. that speed is eerie.

[Bimmerboy91]

looks like i gotta do some more testing will report back with a true super eta top speed

[rThor432]

you've gone faster then 100 in you eta?

Yes. 110-120ish with room to go.

[backtrail69]

I have had my eta up to 130ish and my turbo car up to around 145. No limiters I have found...

[nando]

this is an old thread! no more speed limiter - but motronic is in the trash can.

[Bimmerboy91]

you've gone faster then 100 in you eta? im just saying cuz my acceleration was cut off at 100.

[rThor432]

so the super ETA has a speed limiter of 100?

Hell no.

[Bimmerboy91]

how bout the super ETA? i hit 100 today, he acceleration was pretty strong untill 100 and even on a slight down hill it didnt want to go more than 100. so the super ETA has a speed limiter of 100?
