Well its a little screw behind the speedo... You have to take the whole speedo out, disconnect all the cables from it, they just pull out. Then its just a gold screw directly behind the speedo, so looking from the front, it should be down the bottom behind the 0, but on the back..... you'll see it. The screw is really small and either gold or silver and you just unscrew it and take it out. It should be near a light bulb on the back. Hope this helps but its really hard to explain. Maybe you want to meet up or something. Where abouts in Syd do you live. **** I just read that yours is a 1999 and I've got a 95, maybe its the same. Ask envy imports 99074144, I took mine out and asked them which screw it was! Or they can do it for $30.

yea I don't know about the wire, but I've heard about it. I got my car a month ago and when I was getting ny car complied I pull it out then. I've only been past 180 about 4 times, on the freeway and on the M2, its not really that much of a thrill. I plan on taking my speed out on the creek.

Taka sells them for US$82 (Pivot), and we all know Apexi also has RSM-GP for US$192 + US$46 for the optional G-Sensor, which makes the whole thing cost around $400... and they both have speed limiter remover function too...

How much better is the RSM-GP compared to Pivot, in terms of accuracy of accelleration measures, etc. I suppose RSM-GP will be more accurate if equipped with the G-Sensor?

Thanks heaps:uh-huh:

Dude, I have yet to find out if the 34 is the same as the older model in terms of speed cut [removal] - to me it feels more of an electrical / fuel cut than a simple / mechanical screw!

Of course if you buy one of the abovementioned gadgets, it will be fine. In terms of wire 53, I don't know anyone that has done this on a 34 - yet. 33 / 32 have afaik but not ours...waiting patiently :D

Not a Sales pitch....

I can pass on his e-mail address if anyone is intrested.

what exactly disables it in an 33 ?

I have a Razo TT, Apexi S-AFC, and a few other electronic gizmos...just curious how it may have been done in mine - any of those devices do that? or somebody just cut the wire when they wired it in?

Just know that mine don't have it (wonder how i know that ;) )

Hey wrxkilla,

Can you provide me your friend's e-mail. I am interested in getting one of those devices.

By the way, I am getting a front pipe from HKS (BD4's) for $385. That doesn't sound bad does it? High flow cat will be courtesy of Just Jap. BD4's also sells HKS FMIC kit for approx $2,500...yum!!

      R32 GT-R: 4WD Light Turns On After Bumps – Code 19 (ETS Motor) But No Issues Found

      Look for broken wire or bad connector at the motor. Might not be it, but is worth starting there, as it is easy.

      R32 GT-R: 4WD Light Turns On After Bumps – Code 19 (ETS Motor) But No Issues Found

      By Bireley_32 · Posted

      Hi everyone, I’m having an issue with my R32 GT-R. Sometimes, when the car goes over a bump or experiences some vibration, the 4WD warning light comes on the dashboard. When I check the code from the control unit in the trunk, it shows Code 19 – ETS Motor. However, everything seems to be working fine — if I turn off the engine and restart the car, the light goes away and everything functions normally. Has anyone experienced this before? Where should I start troubleshooting this issue? Thanks in advance!

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      I'm back from the dyno - again! I went looking for someone who knew LS's and had a roller dyno, to see how it shaped up compared to everything else and confirm the powerband really is peaking where Mr Mamo says it should. TLDR: The dyno result I got this time definitely had the shape of how it feels on the road and finally 'makes sense'. Also we had a bit more time to play with timing on the dyno, it turns out the common practice in LS is to lower the timing around peak torque and restore it to max after. So given a car was on the dyno and mostly dialled in already, it was time for tweaking. Luis at APS is definitely knowledgable when it came to this and had overlays ready to go and was happy to share. If you map out your cylinder airmass you start seeing graphs that look a LOT like the engine's torque curve. The good thing also is if you map out your timing curve when you're avoiding knock... this curve very much looks like the inverse of the airmass curve. The result? Well it's another 10.7kw/14hp kw from where I drove it in at. Pretty much everywhere, too. As to how much this car actually makes in Hub Dyno numbers, American Dyno numbers, or Mainline dyno numbers, I say I don't know and it's gone up ~25kw since I started tinkering lol. It IS interesting how the shorter ratio gears I have aren't scaled right on this dyno - 6840RPM is 199KMH, not 175KMH. I have also seen other printouts here with cars with less mods at much higher "kmh" for their RPM due Commodores having 3.45's or longer (!) rear diff ratios maxing out 4th gear which is the 1:1 gear on the T56. Does this matter? No, not really. The real answer is go to the strip and see what it traps, but: I guess I should have gone last Sunday...
