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....

But I have a mate that has all of the above mentioned and selling at a good price. All new and Boxed.

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!!

      Rb25 trigger kit and timing misalignment

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Are you suggesting that the kit did a cheap and nasty job of just jamming the wheel in between other things and caused the misalignment? I mean, we normally do this with an integrated crank trigger wheel, not something bodged on. It's not 1995 any more.

      R-chassis INNER tie rod torque spec?

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      I mean, given the number of BMWs you own their tolerance for improper torque is rather low. The number of torque + angle spec bolts and non-reusable bolts in one is nuts.

      Question about BoV on RB25DET NEO

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      Atmospheric vent requires something that doesn't use a MAF for load. You would need a standalone ECU for that.

      Rb25 trigger kit and timing misalignment

      By drifter17a · Posted

      Hey all,   I’ve got an RB25 with a trigger kit that includes a crank wheel, and I’ve hit a wall trying to sort a timing belt tracking issue. The belt either rides right on the edge of the cam/crank pulleys or walks slightly forward once the engine starts. It tracks okay-ish for a moment, then creeps right to the edge—and honestly, it’s stressing me out.   I’ve spent hours removing and reinstalling the belt, double-checking everything:   Tensioner setup is good, checked multiple times Idler pulley and washers are all in the correct places Followed the RB25 timing procedure step-by-step     The only thing I changed was the rear crank washer—I swapped the OEM one for a Neato version, and it made things worse. The belt now sits even more forward than before. I’m beginning to think the crank trigger wheel itself (from the trigger kit) is the issue—poor design or slightly off dimensions.   What’s strange is that with the previous belt setup, it actually ran fine for a couple of years—around 4,000 to 5,000 miles, even with hard driving and high RPMs. But even then, the belt was always riding right on the edge, and I know that’s not ideal or safe long term.   At this point, I’m debating whether to:   Machine a few mm off the crank trigger wheel to bring it back in line, or Replace it entirely with a better-designed unit     Only thing is, I already have the Cherry Hall sensors, bracket, etc.—I just want to replace the wheel only, not the entire kit. Anyone know a brand or supplier that sells just the crank trigger wheel on its own?   Would really appreciate any feedback—especially from anyone who’s run into this exact issue and found a reliable fix.   Thanks in advance.
