Hi guys. I got TJ 2000. I heard that the speed was limited to 210 is it true? And if it is how can i crack it? And is it possible to fit non Magna fog lights at all?Thanks

very possible, chip the ecu. but if u want to go that fast just buy a ferrari..... lol sorry,

for the lights u can put what ever u can fit in there, supercheap sell lots of good ones..

is there a need to increase your speed?

if you do, tell us the top speed

Before you change the speed limiter you will have to work out a few other things: where are you going to go 210km/h? Speed rating of tyres? The stock brake are not good enough to even remotely stop you at that speed. Suspension at high speed the stock magna suspension begins to float, at the very least new springs but shocks/swaybars are a good addition. You will need more power to get to 210km in any reasonable distance. Also if you have an auto a a transmission cooler would be a good idea.

Kinda makes you wonder if its a good idea at all???

Its not a good idea.

The automatic wouldnt need a tranny cooler, because it will be torn from chassis on impact

210 in any standard car is stupid
:gtfo:

Well that was what I was suggesting, that its not a good idea...

pft

booya did it and hes a little hero to many amc'ers.

seriously, many people of these forums suggest what an inspiration his car was to them, and im sure many people would want cars like his old one , for their own.

what were u implying? :doubt:

what brakes did booyah have on his car?

TJ sports tops out at 225, we found that out in a fellow amc members car.
we wernt very happy about that. :D :D :D

Booya also was not an Idiot.. He did his Speed Test on an Unlimited Road Clear of all traffic where it was legal to do so..

Pushing a Car without MAJOR MODS past 180k's is looking for trouble..

Unless you get Speed Rated Tyres, a Major Suspension upgrade ( and No this does not mean lowering it) Huge Cross Ventillated Brakes with 4 Pot Calipers as a Minimum there is no point..

Thanks mate. I will check it out.

dunno how they enforce it over there, but they are pretty strict here. If you get caught at that speed you'd be lucky to drive again. (all bar those fools who get away with it in company cars and the company cops a big bill)

Welcome to the country, and the AMC, but we don't condone that sort of thing here. Too many people have been touched by the reality of reckless driving... plus it is grossly against the law.

We don't have any Autobahn's in this country... and your average Magna; although can go that speed, cannot really handle a sudden defensive maneuver at those sorts of speeds like many european cars can... too few Australian cars can. . Too much risk

In Germany u got 130kl speed limit but on special autobahn u got no limit so do what ever u want

Thanks mate. I know its all about the risk.I dont want to die yet. But its nice to know that u can go so fast

id like to also know i drive a 02 tj sports and id love to know what the top speed was as its not something i want to go out and test out on open roads to find out.to dangerous to me and other people on the road but cruious of what my little baby could do

to get the speed limiter off u need to get a new ECU

leave removing the speed limiter until u need to, u wont even pass 150 on a quarter mile without lots of mods.

u could easily spend the money on sumthing worthwhile like a improved brakes package or new springs and shocks so u dont bounce off the road at 200km/h IMO anyway

Thanks mate. I know its all about the risk.I dont want to die yet. But its nice to know that u can go so fast

So I take it as you are a see it to believe it kind of guy? There are safer places to test such speeds and I do hope you excerise it with caution thats all. Good luck with your mods.
