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.

      Did tie rods. Steering now not "springing" back.

      No. GKTech arms have spherical bearings in them. No bushes. You will not need bushes for those arms. The sphericals are a bit of a maintenance nightmare. I have replaced all of mine several times in the 5 or so years I've had them, and I have the arms out regularly to clean and lube the balls. Worth the pain on an R32, because the standard arm design is trash. If you need the camber adjustment, there are other options (than the GKTech ones), although I would still lean towards and prefer the GKTech ones, even with the maintenance load of the sphericals. The caster adjustment is also highly valuable, allowing for setting the car up to drive straight. There are a million options for these, including the GKTech ones. I've had Tein rods on mine for 20 years and the balls are much less trouble in that location. Never given me a moment's pain. All positives, no negatives. I consider them compulsory.

      Steps to DIY sanding car back ready for respray....

      By silviaz · Posted

      Thanks for all that information I appreciate it. To answer your questions: - Yep that's what I mean. These guys are professional painters to so I must be missing something. It's a bit hard to explain. - With the primer landing on clearcoat, I make sure that the surrounding clearcoat is scuffed to 240 grit as my epoxy primer says that I only need to sand the area to 240 grit. - Yeah so similar to the first question, assuming that the paint landed on the unscuffed clearcoat because I've seen that happen. - Yep I want to prep the surface in that order. Only reason because epoxy primer will protect it from rust and I need that atm with this crappy Sydney weather. I think I was worried about time, if I try to put the filler down but screw it up somehow and I don't have time to sand it off and reapply it then need to put primer later that it might start to rust again so I wanted to apply the primer as quick as possible to not deal with rust.  - I just deleted some answers, I just realised after watching a video and what you said about looking at the data sheet, that I need to read the data sheet on the specific filler I'm using. It's possible now that I put epoxy primer first was a waste of time and need to go to bare metal lol

      I did. I went to a suspension guy and he told me because I don't have adjustable camber arms it's the reason why my car veers towards the left if I take my hands off the wheel but if I drive my other every day car and take my hands off the steering wheel it goes completely straight. I think it's common with Skyline's. In order to fix the problem, I likely need gktech camber arms then nismo bushes since I have poly bushes atm, then a wheel alignment after that. With my car if I take my hands off the steering wheel on a really bumpy road before stopping at a light I have to hold my steering wheel somewhat tight otherwise my car will legit just go completely in the other direction quite quickly and I'll slam into something lol instead of stopping straight. I Believe this YouTuber had the same issue and fixed it with gktech arms. At timestmap 6:05 he talks about how the car doesn't veer anymore after installing these arms.
