86' GXL, Does it Have an electric rev limiter??
Not like those block of wood under the accelerator :baaaa: mine is still being rebuilt so just wanted to know, incase i give it tooo much https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...DIR#>/wink.png |
There's no rev limiter on mine and I don't think any rx7 have one but they all have a buzzer that sounds over the red line.

They also have a nice big tach. That, and knowledge of the consequences of over-revving a stock engine should be sufficient to keep you under the red line.
Note: The preceding statement does not apply either to crazy teenagers or people with more money than brains. :lachuh: |
when you hear the buzzer, and smoke comes out, let off the gas a little bit. but if a civic is still ahead of you, waste and the engine, and gun it to 14000rpm.
other than that, there is no rev limiter. |

I've never reached that limit. What kind of rev limiter is this, a fuel cut or more likely a ignition cut? ??? |

Yeah, that's why I said "more likely to be an ignition cut off". I've never experienced such thing and there's nothing interesting in power at such RPM with stock rx7s anyway. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/BURNOUT.gif

I think I've taken my motor to 8500 RPM. It keeps pulling, but I can't rev it like that for too long.
