well seems no one else will do it i did. heres what you need to do to remove the reversing beep and the reversing beep only.

To start off with sick your head under the steering collum,the box you are looking for sits right up on top of the steering collum on the right hand side (above your right hand leg when your sitting in the car).

The box your looking for looks like this

In the picture above the white plug faces the firewall.

unplug the plug from the box and pull away some of the insulation tape,proceed to cut the RED wire only,this is the trigger wire for the reversing beep.tape the live end up and plug it back into the box and your all done.

taht will stop the beep when u leave ur lights on...im pretty sure...cos i wanted to do the same thing but was told that it gets rid of the lights beep

This will only remove the reversing beep.the lights on beep uses a different buzzer.

I never knew that was an option in the 33's....Never came across a 33 with it.

The reversing beep is only in the auto R33's

I can confirm that the reversing beep sound is a feature only in Auto R33's... I love it... it have syncronised it with my reversing camera - works great... I've bought a unit to auto turn off lamps after 5 minutes as well... like the Mercs... damn great...

i always thought that the beep was put in, so u knew u were in reverse (( so if by accident u put it in reverse and floored it you wouldnt crash (if parked or something.

its the only logical thing i can think of

Hi Guys, just joined here and thought i would give my feed back.

I just bought a 33 on the weekend, its a manual and it beeps as im reversing, glad to hear that you can get rid of it. Its quite annoying :cool:

Unfortunately it sounds like your car has been converted to a manual (mine has been to), it got done at the dealer. I found out after i brought it, because of this reason my car over revs in 5th, because they didn't change the entire thing. I have asked a few mechanics that deal with skylines regularly, and they came up with these reasons.

That's right, its a warning that it is in reverse, not a warning for pedestrians etc behind the car.

It can be heard inside, but you can't really hear it outside the car

I think thats correct about the warning... even though how annoying it is

Yes u cant hear it outside, i get comments from passengers that my car is a truck, it is annoying as. i might try that wire cutting. Sounds like a plan. so thanks.

Arrgh one of the more annoying features... a beep INSIDE the car for idiots that don't know they are in reverse...

There is actually a warning in the car's handbook (which I have a translated version of) that mentions this fact that it can only be heard inside the vehicle.. so funny, so useless.

Some of the other illustrations in the handbook are very amusing..

Stagea Handbook but applies to Skyline as well.

I will be clipping this wire methinks.. hope it's the same colour on Stagea.

      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.

      Ethanol Content Sensor - Always at 11%?

      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.
