all JDM cars are limited to 180kmh, its japanese law, i think you need a reflash of the ECU or maybe a piggyback to do that but im not sure.

there's a wire you can cut(or remove the pin). I'll try to do your job and search for a link that's useful to you.

Amazing...less than a minute of searching brought this up...https://www.rx7club.com/showpost.php...59&postcount=4
