Quick question, as I have a track night this Friday and want to disable the 180kmh speed limiter before hand.

From Searching I have found that it is wire 53 from the ECU, and to cut the wire close to ECU, but all of the topics from the search were for R32 GTST's or R33's.

My Question is: Is wire 53 the one to cut on a 32 GTR?

Any other advise appriciated

Cheers

Lindsay

my speedo cable end snapped and my speedo didnt work and this really messed with my hicas on my R32 gts-t. not sure if it will be the same of the gtr.

but it made my steering really heavy after about 5 mins of driving and the hicas did not work properly.

if this is the case for the gtr too, you might be able to go a bit faster on straights, but id say your conrnering speeds wont be up to par

Have a look down the page a bit for the last nissan one.

Hope it helps.

Though just be careful not sure if cutting this wire will mess with your hicas or not.

Thanks mate...just what I was looking for :)

I will wire it so as it is switchable as being a speed sensor im guessing it will mess with the HICAS.

Yeah the exact same thing happened to me aswell.

Ok I found and cut the wire which was a very easy job thx Reddrifter for the link below :D

I have just done over 70kms+ in the car, it now surpass's 180kmh with ease, Idle is uneffected, I have started and stopped the car - no problems.

Took car around a new housing estate swerving vigously to activate the HICAS and driving pretty hard, yet No Hicas Light or adverse steering effects at all.

Nothing infact, car appears to be totally uneffected :D

Heres a few pics for anyone attempting it in future which along with the link below should help you.

I will be sure to post if something happens to go wrong, but for now i'm not even bothering with rigging up a switch.

yeah, factory flare... you'll see the little holders on the kicker panel in front of the ecu for it :P dunno if mine was still in the car or not to be honest... always wanted to set it off lol!!!

salad / Red Drifter : don't know if you're aware but when the speedo cable isn't working properly the HICAS won't work etc.

    • Hi GTSBoy, Excuse my ignorance but what does a "Bad" Knee point mean ? 
    • HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.
    • The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.
    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
