I will give you the basics first.
I just had a new engine installed. A gsr bottom end(itr pistons) with a 97 itr head installed with a new clutch and flywheel.
After 2000km I took it out tonight and hammered on it a little further than before. I actually reached 7800rpm on my gsr ecu, but didn't hit redline. It pulled like crazy! Just so you know.
Any way as I hit around 7200-7300rpm at full throttle my speedo all of a sudden the speedo went from around 100(lets say) to 200-220 and then bounced off 220km like it would a rev limiter but the car still pulled like normal to 7800rpm until I cut it off. I thought it could be the winter tires loosing traction but it isn't as I tested that theory out and the tires were not losing traction.
I am looking for ideas at the moment. I am going to be replacing my computer very soon with a P28, just so you know.
I placed a grounding kit on my car and that is about it for the new things done, just want to give you the details. It didn't do this before the swap...
Any ideas.
