I've got the reversing beep too...like the trucks have. Also on another note...does anyones tiptronic beep when shifting gears? I could have sworn mine beeped during gear changes when I first got the car but doesn't do it anymore...or maybe I'm just hallucinating??

I'm quite sure the beeping speaker is in the steering column. Same beeper used for when you leave your headlights on and when you leave the key in the ignition and open the door.

I'm going to try to open it up tonight and cut the wire. Hope I don't set off the air-bags or anything.

looks like i must be the only one with only 1 beep when the gear (6MT) is put into reverse. But I had the optional Momo steering wheel, thats prob why...

I'm keen as to get rid of my reversing beeps as well, I'm confident that it is controlled by the BCM (Body Control Module).

Chris, please let me know if there is a way of removing it without effecting the headlight & other neccessary warnings, once you get hold of this new tool :thumbsup:

On a previous car I got rid of the beeping by simply finding the damn beeper and filling everything with silicon and letting it set.

Basically muffled the noise right down as in the absence of air there was no noise transmission and avoided any risk of screwing up some obscure electronic system that may or may not be present

My 2002 gt8 has the beep too, just curious as a I had a instance on 2 seperate occasions recently where I had the battery and park brake lights come on and a Japanesse girl spoke too me, by the time I got to Nissan to get codes from the computer it had cleared.

Would cutting the wire to this speaker remove the instance where the girl will speak to you?

Does anyone else find it amazing that no matter how old a topic is, someone manages to dig it up from over 3 years ago and everyone else continues to reply as if it was yesterday's news?

*cuts some slack* I remember the first time I discovered a message board I posted on pretty much every topic I thought was relevant without considering the date of the last reply... and for what it's worth, it was a daihatsu enthusiasts forum.

To keep this reply on topic to the original post.......

Reverse beeping is a feature commonly found on automatic equipped vehicles.

Filling the speaking with silicon will silence any other warning signals (ie lights left on, door open)

Cutting the reverse signal wire will stop your reverse lights from working.

My experience with consult is limited to 90's models.

figuring consult will turn it off.
Can you really turn features on and off using consult?? Edited by daisu

      M35 VQ25DET starter motor

      By iain_ST44GA · Posted

      Hi Guys, Does anyone know any aftermarket part numbers for a starter motor to suit the VQ25DET? I can find lots of alternative part number for the VQ35DE, which I assume would fit, but there is a lot of conflicting information out there. Thanks..

      R33 GTR running -9 with no tune

      I don't understand how this hasn't boiled down to - Upgrade the turbo when you have everything required. ECU, injectors, fuel pump, turbo, etc. Do it all at once.  If you don't have everything required, just enjoy the car as it is and keep saving up your pennies.

      Sounds like you've got an interesting adventure ahead here with local support if you have trouble! My guess is that, unboosted, you will be OK with a small upgrade like -9. What will happen is that once the stock ECU sees more airflow than it expects it will add a heap of fuel and pull a heap of timing to be safe because it can't understand how it could get that much air without there being an issue. You will see clouds of black smoke and it won't pull hard through the midrange and top end. So, overall it will be a bit frustrating but should be OK. If you are still nervous set the base timing back 2o through the CAS, but it will be even more sluggish everywhere. As said above through...this is not my guarantee your engine won't be blown into a million pieces, leaving you looking for very hard to find parts A better idea is get a computer with logging ASAP, wire in a wide band O2 sensor and a use remote tuner. I've done multiple cars this way and while it is not as good as a specific tune on a dyno they can get it 90% right. I'd suggest if you can afford an R33 GTR these days you can afford an ECU and tune. And if you can't afford that you sure won't be able to afford the rebuild if it goes bad in the meantime,.

      Yeah it would be nice if someone took the time to put that sort of information together, but there are a lot of variations in looms. I think you are making this way hard for yourself if you just want to get it running....sourcing an SR20 with the right wiring will be a billion times easier than matching the RB loom to an S15 chassis. If you do end up going this way, you just need to trace every wire in the loom with a multimeter, 95% of them will go to a location you can confirm at the ECU.....and then post it up for the next person who needs it

      Coolant leak?

      By Duncan · Posted

      Just top it up with water, and keep a general idea of how much you added. It is normal for water to be pushed into and pulled out of the reservoir through the cap, and it should not be more than half full or it will be likely to overflow when hot. Any decent mechanic can do a pressure test of the cooling system to confirm if you have a leak. Keep in mind if it is only leaking a little and when hot it may well evaporate before you see it hit the ground
