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.

    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
    • Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention
    • So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34
    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
