Hey Guys and Girls first post on this site and forum but got to say love this place and all the helpful info found Im currently stuck in a 98 R34 NA skyline but ive got it in the works for a major over haul. The engine is gonna get reworked as per info ive found on many sites so hopefully it will end up as a sweet ride.

However the reason for this post isnt about turboing the NA its about that damn anoying reverse beeper on the skyline i dont know if all skylines have it but mine does and i was wondering if there was anyone out there that knew how to shut it off without changing anything or damaging any board parts. Thanks

desolder it from the board? bridge the connections with a resistor equivalent to the beeper. should fix the problem and make sure the rest of the gear keeps working as it should.

failing that I suggest earplugs or a loud stereo playing music at the same BPM as the beeper. I'm sure marsss can hook you up with the tunes.

If you trace it under the dash below the steering wheel it is as simple as unpluging it from a small black control box.

This will not affect any other functions of the car it will just remove the beep from reversing leaving the lights on with the key in etc.

Got any idea where exactly the box is on the R34? Thanks to every one that posted though

usually under the cover behind the steering wheel on the left hand side.

      If I got a dollar for every flipped commuter missile I've driven past I'd have two dollars   Some people get into wild adventures on the road and I doubt it's gender or ethnicity specific. I'm just glad I don't usually drive during peak times.

      Just got the car back and gave it a good run back home Power wise, whilst it only made a extra 5 killerwasps up top at 7200 rpm, it made more power everywhere from 2500 rpm and kept pulling much harder all the way, to the point of me relearning when to shift so I don't hit the 7200 limiter, with the old intake it seemed to take alot more time to rev out, and, throttle response is also much improved  As I didn't want to remove the bumper every time I serviced the air filter (basically every aftermarket and fabricated CAI has the filter behind the bumper) it currently has a hektic exposed pod in the engine bay sucking in hot air, this will be rectified shortly after some some of my CAD (cardboard assisted design) for a alloy heat shield feed by the OEM intake tube behind the bumper, this will cop some wrinkle black paint, as well as the intake pipe for that totally OEM look... The only fly in the ointment was that the OEM "strut" brace doesn't fit over the rear runner of the new intake with the 2.5 engine is in the engine bay, as the 2.5 raises the engine up by 20mm, it's not a war stopper, and I didn't notice any difference without it in some twisties, but....... MX5 Mania is bringing in some GWR "fancy pants" braces that apparently do fit, if it bolts up I'll grab it, it is also stiffer than the OEM one, which is a bonus All in all I'm happy with the outcome      Fancy pants "strut" brace that gives the required clearance      This is where the clearance issue was, the GWR extends out past this
