Hey peoples.

i wasn't sure where to post this question, so sorry if it aint supposed to be in here lol.

anyhow, i'm always getting attention from cops in my r33 even when i'm obeying every

road rule. its really been getting to me lately so i've decided to convert my skyline into

a track only car. no more street use. well maybe for the odd sau cruise lol.

With that in mind, there's quite a few things i'm wanting to do to my car. Unfortunately

im having trouble with something, as always. haha

I wanna delete my key. install a pivot push button start on it.

usually with a push button start though u still use ur key, turn it to on, then push the button.

to me this seems stupid. lol. i'd rather no key at all.

Can someone please inform me how to do this...?

today i unplugged the back on my ignition assembly where the key goes in and tried to start it without

my key. kind of worked. well i got the car to try kick over but couldn't.

i was also able to get accessories to work. but i couldn't power "on"

when using the key, turning the car to "on" activates the fuel pump.

without the key i couldn't manage to do this. i'm stumped as to why not.

My assumption is, if i can work that problem out. i can install a push button start without a key.

If someone could solve this problem for me it'd be much appreciated.

Regards,

Guesty

when you turn the key to its different points, eg, "acc" and "on" you also send 12v power down your "acc" line and your "on" line. what you need to do is figue out which wires these are and apply a good 12v to them before your car will start. without powering these lines you ecu will not power up along with everything else needed to run your car.

ussually people would use a good on/off switch to set the car to "on" and then a push button to crank the engine.

Sounds like you'll need to power up ACC and ON first, then power the START wire.

The best method to determine how to tackle this problem is to use a multimeter and measure the pins on the key barrel as you turn the key from OFF to START.

ok i worked it out. lol

thanks for your input.

i'll be installing the switch next weekend if i get around to it lol

i just took my car for a spin without a key.

kinda scary that its so easy to steal our cars. made sure my alarm / immobiliser was fitted back on properly. lol

cheers

    • Something to note, on an aftermarket BOV, it's quite possible to end up with the worst of both worlds, where on light throttle, there isn't enough force to open the BOV so you get small reversion and driveability issues, and with the venting to atmosphere, it dumps a lot of fuel on shifts. Realistically, dumping to atmosphere under power isn't a major driveability issues, compared to the issues of stalling from reversion. If you're getting up the throttle, then putting the clutch in, say on a shift up, but then don't release the clutch, yes, the engine can and will stall, but, just drive around it, and that's easy, let the clutch out in the next gear and the car rolling will keep it all running / going.who wants a hard hit of throttle and then to just let the motor idle anyway?   Main issue for driveability is blipping throttle and it wanting to stall, like when parking or trying to move in slow traffic.
    • As in they quoted one price, you mentioned the exhaust, and they promptly added $200 on top? Interesting.
    • Note that I'm not suggesting this is a great idea. Just saying that it is something that could be done to achieve a better outcome than the more shit ideas will provide.
    • I'd try removing it, connecting hoses and see if that helps. Depending on specs, it could actually be restricting the flow(it also might be helping).
    • Yes, that's a hybrid BOV. The adjustable spring load ones are about making teh pressure build up higher before venting, so you get a more agressive whoosh. That is not what I meant or what you want. By "restricting", I don't mean "keep it closed until the pressure is higher, then open it fully". I mean "open it as soon as it is required, but only have a small port area, so that the flow rate out of it is slowed down". The pressure will rise to be higher than a bigger ported BOV would provide, but it would do while it is venting. The idea is to slow down the rate at which the replacement eair is flowing past the AFM, to reduce the magnitude of the air flow signal peak, to reduce the amount of fuel that is added per revolution.
