hi,
is there any way to stop the speed sensor?
because i drive daily 60kms in highway at a speed of 140km/h and the f***ing beep annoying me...?!??

 

What speed sensor? I haven't heard anything yet...

 

khm?

ur not from kansas!

 

? dunno? somthin in the cars computer?

 

JDM vehicles have excessive speed warning beepers that beep annoyingly at speeds over 105km/h. This might be something of that sort.

140km/h=87MPH. I hope the road is smooth and straight!

 

the easy way....and the way i would do it....cause im lazy....find the piezo speaker thats beeping and buggin you and put a switch inline so u can shut it off when your doin high speeds...

 

yah, its probably a buzzer type module like the one for your door being open when the key is on. just find it and remove it!

 

glad that one JDM feature we don't have over here. :D

 

that weird, i never heard of this.

 

speaking of speedos

anyone notice in spedo discrepency?

i was driving along my buddy with a bmw... i ask him how fast he was going

he was going 65 and my spedo is reading 60..

stock wheels

tire pressure correct

and i was also wondering why is everyone keep passing me?

 

watch initial D....you may notice in some of the racing scenes the 86 is giving off this little "ding dong" noise...that's the speed sensor. Lucky for us it's only JDM because it would annoy the hell out of me.

 

I've checked my speedo closely and find that it reads a few percent high with stock everything. This is normal, as manufacturers don't want customers mad because they got tickets due to pessimistic speedometers.

An easy way to check the speedometer is to get a handheld GPS and compare its speed reading to the speedometer. GPS will generally be within 1MPH of the true speed. You could also find a friendly cop with a radar gun. Don't trust the "your speed is" roadside displays as they tend to read a bit high.

i was going 75mph and dodge truck next to me read out 73mph.....my friend was driving the truck....funny it reads fast....i bet with 18's its about dead on....

 

yeah same here

 

where is that guy from?

 

try cutting the purple w/ white stripe wire at the fuse panel. that should be the speed sensor wire.

**note: this is only for reference and not intended to be 100% accurate. Use a voltage meter before proceeding with any modifications**

 

Put a SPST switch in-line and you have the option of turning it on/off when you want, or attach it to your key start wire and you can have it do it automatically..

Enjoy..

I am waiting for my Xb to come in.. Can't Wait..
