Im not the kidn of person to go out and see how fast top end I got, but I have owned my car for abour 3 months know and on the way home from school was on the interstate and got beside a mustang and was kicking his *** when all of a sudden my car hit 115 and started to cut out like it had a govenor on it. I didnt think ls1 had that. my car is a 6speed with a 155 speedo so can anyone help me out on this. Also what can I do so it wont cut off. I was waxing his *** till 115 then he just blew by me and I could never catch up or pass cuz after 115 he was gone so help!!

ROTFLMAO!

Damn I didnt know they still did that stupid ****. My brothers old 93 Z28 only had the 115mph speedo so I knew it had it on it. You need to remove the top speed limiter. A bypass module is pretty cheap.

 

if you have the QCB RPO code it means your car came with the non speed rated 235's and your limiter is set @ ~118mph. you'll need to add speed rated tires and then remove the limiter with hpp3, hptuner, predator or edit.

 

Dontcha just hate when the governor ruins a good *** whoopin?

 

What jrp said.

Another way you can tell is if you have a steel driveshaft (I believe).

In other words, a rusted *** one

 

No steel DS means you have 2.73 gears not top speed limited!

 

I think he already found out that he has a speed limiter near 115MPH. Just get it taken out and find him again.

 

And that'll only be on auto cars. All 6 speeds got the aluminum ds.

 

well thanks guys. I just thought all cars with 6speeds didnt shut off. O well. I will just ahve to go ahead and get ls1edit before I wanted to. I know what town the guy lives in, so when it is able to go I will go find him. Im glad I dont have my nx wet kit on their. Wont I be around 115 with a 100 shot at the quarter?

 

damn, i never ever heard of that. That really must suck, I thought i heard somewhere that M6s limit at around 150
-JOSH

 

Any chance you were in 3rd gear and hit your rev limiter?

 

99ta , DMNSPD- I know all about the A4's - 2.73's having them, because I had one. But if you have a speed limiter then you have a steel driveshaft, I know my buddy with a '99 M6 Z28 had that. I could be wrong.

Maybe we can talk grubby98 into looking at his and let us know what it is? lol

Mine came stock with an aluminum. Also came with z rated wheels which allowed the speed limiter to be higher.

 

My 2001 Z28 6 speed came with the 118 mph limiter and the steel driveshaft. Yes, it has 3.42 gears, and after researching, I've found that a number of 2001/2002 6 speeds came with the steel driveshaft. I had a friend with HPTuner, so we removed the 118 limiter. I also hit the speed limiter unexpectedly on a deserted country road, surprised the heck out of me. To tell you the truth, I probably should have left it in. I have no reason to run over 100 mph, I'm just asking for a really BIG ticket!

 

QLC is the RPO for the z rated tires.

 

Moreso around 163..give or take a mph or two

 

people claim to have seen 168

 

Ha! So I was right!!! lol







Peace,
Craig.
