[Mk2] [Generic] Jap imports

Post by InFaMou$ »

Was just wondering if all jap imports were limited to 110mph, and if there was a doit yourself cheapo way of de-limiting it?

Rather than spending £95 on a Speed Limit Defencer from fensport.

jap imports are usually converted when they come in to the country, as part of passing the sva test the speedo's changed from kmh to mph...

they are supposed to have mph clocks to pass an mot.....
