Hey guys,

i got no idea about transmission n shit for my car just got a couple of quick questions (yes they are kinda noob)

1. Do auto r33 s1 N/A's have a rev limiter if i put it in neutral / park? kinda a argument / debate between a few of me and my mates have (dont ask)

2. Say i put my car in 2nd, then drive it get to high revs in 2nd then put in 3rd then rev it out again then Drive. Will this do damage?

thx, leigh.

Hey guys,

I don't have an auto r33, but my thoughts would be - Why would the transmission make a difference to whether the engine has a rev limiter? Or what gear the transmission is in at the time?

My answer would be - of course it has a rev limit.

2. Say i put my car in 2nd, then drive it get to high revs in 2nd then put in 3rd then rev it out again then Drive. Will this do damage?

4 speed auto? Probably won't do much, since in this case D and 3rd will be the same thing, but drive will switch it into overdrive (4th, assuming overdrive is selected) if the revs are high enough for it to want to switch.

5 speed? I'm guessing, but going from 3rd to D will just switch it to 4th when the computer wants to (assuming the revs are correct for it to switch to 4th, otherwise it might stay in 3rd), which shouldn't cause it any real issues

(* Unless you're doing this stationary, in which case, yeah, it'll probably break something; *reving out 3rd will probably put you beyond any legal speed limit in australia as well)

No idea whether the R33's N/A's have 4 or 5 speed auto's though, perhaps somebody can clarify

i can only go as low as gear 2 for some reason (which means like 110 k's).. seen some with 1.. whats going on there? how come some are different? (i got 2, 3, D does this mean 5 speed? seems like i have 4.. + overdrive ofcourse)

Edited by leighzor

I might be wrong (I can't remember cause I've never used them, being tiptronic) but my R34 GTT auto only has 2 & 3. They're a 4 speed.

I thought the R33's were 5 speeds, but I don't know if turbo's and N/A's are different.

Tried just counting how many gear changes you go through to work out if it's a 4 or 5 speed? Don't even have to floor it, just count the changes as you go up through the gears.

    • It is a kunfine Android screen . Does anyone know the wirering diagram of the fuga ??
    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
