yeah thats what i thought, but i read a thread from the UK aswell as a HPI review and both said you couldnt run it if you have a PFC, which seemed a little weird to me aswell but i thought it wouldnt hurt to check before handing out my hard earned.

well some people in japan also told me they are not compatible. It's possible they are not. remember the Bee-R is basically an interceptor... so yes it does have to work along side the PFC.

only one way to find out though.... but it and tell us what happens.

to be honest they are a bit of a wank. they don't do much except cause some slow damage to your car and make you like like a bit of a tool. unless we are talking for a dedicated drag car, in which case go for it.

b man, the Bee*R rev limiter does not mean fuel cut as vehicle reached certain RPM

the rev limiter is a device used to cut sparks at pre-set condition, so you'll have fuel going through the exhaust valves and igniting in manifold, making flames shoot out of exhaust. there are two conditions that can be chosen, the rev and the launch I think.

That's BS, HPI installed a Bee*R rev limiter in their 4 door 32 with a PFC.

Works with my PFC too.

You can also hook a micro switch up to the clutch pedal on the secondary limiter for a very primitive anti-lag set setup. Works though :thumbsup:

Still in two minds about getting one and installing it...

Purely to use at the 1/4

But smashing it off the limiter (BeeR limiter) and launching it wont make my gearbox happy i dont think.

Im not running a cat also but ive hear there will be jack sheit left in your muffler after using these too? (Sorry to hi-jack)

Using bee*r with a pfc allows you to see the fantastic knock numbers produced.

And it does cut fuel ASWELL as spark.

doupt it cuts fuel, otherwise there won't be flames shooting out at all...I don't get how you'll have high knocks as well? I think the Bee*R randomly cuts spark from one of the 6 cylinders? there's only 3 wires going out of the Bee*R unit if I remember correctly... without spark the fuel won't ignite at all, ignition by compresion alone requires extremely high comp ratio. so no combustion for particular cylinder,

knock is more of sporadic combustion, one main flame and smaller pockets of flame as pistons move up...

+ I dun think it has the function of antilag at launch, looks like it with flame shooting, but because its only 1 cylinder and there's no spark at all, antilag is like retarding the timing so that some fuel exits the exhaust from all the cylinders to put more cha cha in the car.

The main damage is probably to the manifold and exhaust turbine. The main function is to eliminate fuel cut at red line, so the vehicle does not loose power as vehicle stays in red line.

my pfc and bee-r never actually gave me any big knock readings, but when you hit the bee-r limiter the engine check light did come on, im assuming its because the pfc is detecting a error in the ignition which is what the bee-r is designed for.

i had mine installed for good launches on boost, but turns out my car is responsive enough not to need it

when i had mine both connected i had high knock readings and yer a couple months down the track blew the rings on my motor :)

What it does is confuse the CAS sensor, thus not allowing the PFC or Engine comp to know when to fire the coils.

The knock values only show up when there is a big back fire and it's only the shock of the fire ball in your exhaust that is making that knock.

If you tune the gain on the Bee*R down to a reasonably level, it doesn't really sound any different to your normal fuel cut limiter.

I can build about 5 psi at 0 kph with the Bee*R. lift hand brake, depress right foot, stutter stutter, boost up.

It's tops..... but traction is a litle bit of a problem. I'll be hooking up to the clutch before deca.

    • Welcome to Skyline ownership. Yes, it is entirely possible parts websites get things wrong. There's a whole world of inaccuracies out there when it comes to R34 stuff (and probably 33 and 32). Lots of things that are 'just bolt on, entirely interchangable' aren't. Even between S1 and S2 R34's. Yes they have a GTT item supposedly being 296mm. This is incorrect. I would call whoever you got them from and return them and let them know the GTT actually uses 310mm rotors. Depending on where you got them from your experience and success will obviously vary.
    • Hi...a bit a "development" on the brakes. I spoke to the guys where i get brakes from...and they are saying that 296mm EBC are for R34 GT-T. I then went to their site: https://www.ebcbrakes.com/vehicle/uk-row/NISSAN/Skyline (R34)/ and search for my car(R34 GT 1998 - it has GTT brakes) and it show me this USR1229 number and they are rly 296mm rotors... So now iam rly confused... The rotors i have now on the car are 310mm asi shown... So where is the problem? Does the whole EBC got it wrong or my calipers are just...idk know what?  
    • Oh What the hell, I used to get a "are you sure you want to reply, this thread is XX months old" message. Maybe a software update remove that. My bad.
    • This is a recipe for disaster* Note: Disaster is relative. The thing that often gets lost in threads like this is what is considered acceptable poke and compromise between what one person considers 'good' looks and what someone else does. The quoted specs would sit absurdly outside the guards with the spacers mentioned and need  REALLY thin tyres and a LOT of camber AND rolling the guards to fit. Some people love this. Some people consider this a ruined car. One thing is for certain though, rolling the guards is pretty much mandatory for any 'good' fitment (of either variety). It is often the difference between any fitment remotely close to the guards. "Not to mention the rears were like a mm from hitting the coilovers." I have a question though - This spec is VERY close to what I was planning to buy relative to the inboard suspension - I have an offset measuring tool on the way to confirm it. When you say "like a mm" do you mean literally 1mm? Or 2mm? Cause that's enough clearance for me in the rear :p I actually found the more limiting factor ISNT the coilover but the actual suspension arms. Did you take a look at how close those were?
    • @GTSBoy yeah sorry i know thery are known for colors bud those DBA are too in colors 🙂 Green will be good enough for me
