You have the hand controller I assume? If so Bunta knows how.

ON the hand controler you need to go into setting

Then into the last menu bottom right and you will see idle value and rev limit set up around the 7000rpm area.

Highlight this figure and then hold down the 'down' arrow til its at like 1000rpm... :D

It will take you a minute to turn it down...

HAHAHAHAHA

Never done that, what happens???

When you start the car it starts rev limiting straight away, really really slowly lol

Rev limiter and idle control fighting each other... would make it very hard to drive the car away :D

Wire in a kill switch like in racing...have it hidden under the dash and just turn it off and remove the key paddle and keep it with you...then they cant start the car regardless....so long as they dont find it and bridge it....that would suck.

I do this when I park in dodgy places! It is the goods, You get sick of it doing it regularly but like Col said it takes a good minute to take it from 7500 to 1000

Oh it is also good for when learners/noobs are driving your car. Set the limiter to 4500 and sleep easy!

what about just popping the bonnet and disconnecting the ignition module?

car can't start without any spark to the cylinders, and its easiest to plug back in without the need for tools etc.

I guess we are hoping that the Crim doesnt know how to use a Power FC...whereas he might now to plug the igniter back in

    • Newbie here, proud owner of an Autech 260RS. I'm on the hunt for wiring diagrams specific to the 260RS, particularly S1. I've ran my eyes through R33, R34 Diagrams, there are some similarities, however continue to find incorrect wire colours and pins on connectors in the 33,34 diagrams.   I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction? I'd be happy to pay for the originals in Japanese. I can translate them, at least they would be accurate.   Any help please would be greatly appreciated, never heard an RB26DETT before let alone driven one, and I've got a spaghetti monster of goodness to sort out.   Cheers Benny  
    • Hey all  im wondering if you can help me please I have put a rb20 box in my r34 gtt as my auto packed up and a friend had a spare box I know it’s not ideal but it will get me up and running for now. we have done the conversation and everything is working great but my Speedo we got a s13 speed sensor but my Speedo reads double now and I bought a speed converter but still not having any luck.  so I thought I’ll reach out and pick your brains  any help would be appreciated please as I wanna drive my car again 
    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
