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

It's just a beeper... find out where it lives... evict it... simple.........neeeext!

Thanks found out where it live and extremly hard to evict it i had an auto electrician friend of mine look at it and he said its hard wired to a board of some kind any one else have any ideas

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.

      But seriously, can we ask for the results of the "tip a bottle of metho into a nearly empty tank" experiment?

      Hang on. Let me get this straight. The desire is to have coilovers, BC in particular, to be MORE comfortable on Sydney roads than stock suspension? Well, that's obviously not right. BCs have crude damping design at the very best, and typically hard spring rates. BC stands for Billy Cart. And then, the desire is to put in some shitty old worn out stockers, to get it blue slipped and then put the BCs back in? And then.....what? Not worry about getting pulled up by the Plod? Because you seem to have raised a worry about paying for engineering (which actually does solve all your legality problems) and still getting pulled up.... but the only problem there is that if/when that happens you have to show your paperwork at the inspection station. Whereas, if you just swap in borrowed shitty old stockers to get it slipped now, and then you get defected in the future, you have to go find more shitty old stockers then too. You course of action looks like this set of options: Buy brand new stock type dampers, and springs. probably cost a bit more than $1k all up, but will last for the remaining life of the car. Put them in, pass inspection, drive on them forever more. Hell, they could even be really nice Bilsteins and Kings or other lower&stiffer springs if you wanted. Get the car engineered as is. ~$1k. Buy new Shockworks coilvers (or MCA) and also pay for engineering. You're spending a lot more here. But these will be the best things that you could drive around on.

      Might be worthwhile hitting up Facebook's groups, I know most of them contain terrible people and scammers - however you might be able to find someone that's in Sydney with factory suspension you could purchase and/or hire. Just do not send any form of money anywhere, in person cash only.

      Thanks @Duncan Ride height is fine. I think it's almost stock tbh. Happy to share a pic. I don't actually have a regular mechanic as haven't lived in Sydney too long. Could you or anyone recommend any shops in Sydney?
