Just a heads up guys.My son purchased my R33 GTS-T off me when I leased a ForesterXT. Gee I loved that car. Anyway. He drove to golf at Kogarah Golf Course on thursday to play with a mate. he came back to it at 2.15pm and noticed the drivers door was unlocked. On opening the door he found the ignition switch was smashed on the floor but luckily nothing else but some coin and sunnies taken. It looks like the immobiliser stopped them getting away with it. The disturbing thing was they got in without damage to the locks or windows. We got it flat topped home . We were a bit suspious of a car that turned up and parked just opposite and watched us unload the car.I spoke to a mate who is a cop and gave him the rego of the car, though my son found out where the car is from and so we don't think it had anything to do with the attempt

We got a new barrel for the ignition and all is good. While talking to my local import shop they had heard of at least 6 cars stolen in the shire recently.

disable the door unlock button thingy on the drivers side of the car.

+1.. If it isn't disabled, that is exactly how they unlocked the door without braking anything.

It's very easy to slide a shim between the top of the drivers glass all the way down to the button and click, passenger door unlocked.

damn you guys have alot of theft up there in nsw :D

NSW sucks balls.

Skyline owners, actually anyone that owns something of value to thieves, unfortunately need to take precautions.

Alarm, immobiliser, where we park and at what time.

Even then a car can still be stolen.

Walking ftw :dry:

Cut the brown wire. This will disable the switch to open the passenger door. You will still be able to lock the passenger door with this same switch, but not unlock it.

As 'Pauls33' has stated in his DIY thread, the R33 and R34 GTR switch wires are also brown.

i put electrical tape over the button and put some plastic lid to block the button from being pushed up!!

dodgy diy for me ><

trying to find some other method without cutting the brown wire ><

maybe like a cap for the button?? any ideas ?!?!

Is it the same on a R34 GTT?

    • So.... the K&N air box thingo was too big, ended up gifting it to a mate, well, by gifting it he actually supplied food and beer at the pub,  which was nice, as it will not sit on a shelf in the garage for the next 10 years I did trim up some of the existing stuff to neaten it all up and gave it some wrinkle paint, unfortunately it currently has a used and abused mish mash of different types of hose clamps, 4 big fat T bolt type (shit), and a few normal clamps of vairing sizes and brands, but..... only until the 6 constant tension black worm clamps that I ordered from EFI solutions turn up next week Currently the current hose clamps are triggering me hard, LOL Is this the final version, probably not, I really want just 2 silicone pieces, a straight bit of silicone from the filter to the MAF is easy and will happen as soon as I head into Just Jap tomorrow, the problematic part is a 30° silicone bend from the MAF to the TB that I can connect the engine breather from the head, I found that there are bulk head fittings for boat bilge pumps that should work, but until I can get a 30° silicone bend the alloy pipe, and the 11ty thousand hose clamps, are there for the foreseeable future 4 hose clamps are golden, 6 are grudgingly acceptable, the 8 currently holding it all together is just taking the piss    I've also ordered 60 more retaining wall blocks for the front yard, I mis-gonculated the height that was required to get above the base of the Photinia's (red robin's) that are the hedge behind the front fence, currently it is 2 blocks high, and about 1/2 a block short, so going 3 blocks high will be above the base of the red robin's, and allow some room for mulch
    • It is the stock air box with the panel filter. Everything else is stock except the exhaust at this point, as I also went back to the cleaned 270cc injectors. I will check the RPM when the IACV is unplugged and report back.
    • As MBS suggested if this is happening when the engine is cold you're going to want to remove the intake air regulator and verify resistance + that the shutter is physically opening and closing. At -20C should be fully open, 20C half open, over 60C fully closed. At 20C should be 70-80 ohms. For AAC valve testing using a Consult cable see if you can raise and lower the idle by commanding more or less AAC duty cycle. Hopefully it's pretty linear as well, shouldn't be like 30% AAC valve is barely idling and 40% is 1500 rpm.
    • Bloody apprentices! 🙄
    • Not sure yet.  Was considering speedtek because it was rated to 800hp, but when I did some research about him I don't think I will go for that🤣 So maybe giken gear set, but I'm afraid it won't be strong enough🙄
