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

    • Block bump. $400. As above cyl 6 needs bore or sleeve.
    • I would think making the argument that the travel is limited by a spring flexing against a spring perch as "the same method". Later on in the document they do state that the spring can't bind on full bump travel and cannot come loose in full rebound travel as well. (which is all very sensible). The laws are actually pretty sensible and reasonable. It's just that the people who enforce and check them don't actually read them or know them accurately. "Oh, coilovers? Instant fail mate. Don't even need to look at it." - Guy who will be instantly reported by me. There is probably merit to people who do get defected for height also get defected for the suspension in that state that allows it. I did never consider the people who are complaining about coilovers being picked on are also running around at 50mm off the floor.
    • I think given SAU's knowledge of E85 we can strongly conclude that 10% ethanol in almost any situation is entirely fine. Almost all of the myths against E85 were overblown, let alone E10.
    • From your link See bold text, is this referring to damper settings, if so that may a issue for "some" inspectors, I cannot see aftermarket coilovers having the evidence that "must be available that its functional performance is equivalent to the original" Maybe just remove the adjustment knows and hope for the best???? Meh 5.2 Suspension travel In all instances, modifications to a vehicle’s suspension must ensure the integrity of the system and not compromise the ride quality. At least two thirds of the original suspension travel should be maintained in both directions (rebound (i.e. extension) and bump (i.e. compression)), and rebound must be limited by the same method used by the vehicle manufacturer or if this is not practicable due to the nature of the modification, an equivalent method. If an alternative method is used, evidence must be available that its functional performance is equivalent to the original.
    • They actually don't - They adhere to VSB14 rules just like Victoria. The rules are against CABIN adjustable height, and it quite clearly states that the height has to be within parameters. I asked the VASS engineer to confirm this when I got my car engineered and they refused to engineer the coilovers because they didn't meet the requirements for requiring engineering. (mine are height adjustable.) People "Not wanting to bother" with "Actually reading/knowing/adhering to the rules" should result in fines and immediately losing the ability to issue blue slips and/or RWC's in Vic.
