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

    • I mean, I got two VASS engineers to refuse to cert my own coilovers stating those very laws. Appendix B makes it pretty clear what it considers 'Variable Suspension' to be. In my lived experience they can't certify something that isn't actually in the list as something that requires certification. In the VASS engineering checklist they have to complete (LS3/NCOP11) and sign on there is nothing there. All the references inside NCOP11 state that if it's variable by the driver that height needs to maintain 100mm while the car is in motion. It states the car is lowered lowering blocks and other types of things are acceptable. Dialling out a shock is about as 'user adjustable' as changing any other suspension component lol. I wanted to have it signed off to dissuade HWP and RWC testers to state the suspension is legal to avoid having this discussion with them. The real problem is that Police and RWC/Pink/Blue slip people will say it needs engineering, and the engineers will state it doesn't need engineering. It is hugely irritating when aforementioned people get all "i know the rules mate feck off" when they don't, and the actual engineers are pleasant as all hell and do know the rules. Cars failing RWC for things that aren't listed in the RWC requirements is another thing here entirely!
    • I don't. I mean, mine's not a GTR, but it is a 32 with a lot of GTR stuff on it. But regardless, I typically buy from local suppliers. Getting stuff from Japan is seldom worth the pain. Buying from RHDJapan usually ends up in the final total of your basket being about double what you thought it would be, after all the bullshit fees and such are added on.
    • The hydrocarbon component of E10 can be shittier, and is in fact, shittier, than that used in normal 91RON fuel. That's because the octane boost provided by the ethanol allows them to use stuff that doesn't make the grade without the help. The 1c/L saving typically available on E10 is going to be massively overridden by the increased consumption caused by the ethanol and the crappier HC (ie the HCs will be less dense, meaning that there will definitely be less energy per unit volume than for more dense HCs). That is one of the reasons why P98 will return better fuel consumption than 91 does, even with the ignition timing completely fixed. There is more energy per unit volume because the HCs used in 98 are higher density than in the lawnmower fuel.
    • No, I'd suggest that that is the checklist for pneumatic/hydraulic adjustable systems. I would say, based on my years of reading and complying with Australian Standards and similar regulations, that the narrow interpretation of Clause 3.2 b would be the preferred/expected/intended one, by the author, and those using the standard. Wishful thinking need not apply.
    • Yes they do. For some maybe. But for those used the most by abusers, ie Skylines, the numbers are known. The stock eyebrow height for R32/3 Skylines is about 365/375mm or thereabouts. The minimum such heights are recorded in adjacent columns in the database.
