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.

Fix: 1st, car off for a hour and half disconnected battery 10mins 4th try car started 2nd, 5th try started 3rd, countless time starting disconnected battery dude was under the hood listening to the starting sequence fuel pump ect.

      This. As for your options - I suggest remote mounting the Nissan sensor further away on a length of steel tube. That tube to have a loop in it to handle vibration, etc etc. You will need to either put a tee and a bleed fitting near the sensor, or crack the fitting at the sensor to bleed it full of oil when you first set it up, otherwise you won't get the line filled. But this is a small problem. Just needs enough access to get it done.

      J50 clock date suddenly reset to January 1

      By suko · Posted

      The time is always correct. Only the date is wrong. It currently thinks it is January 19. Tomorrow it will say it is January 20. The date and time are ( should be ! ) retrieved from the GPS navigation system.

      Buy yourself a set of easy outs. See if they will get a good bite in and unthread it.   Very very lucky the whole sender didn't let go while on the track and cost you a motor!

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      Well GTSBoy, prepare yourself further. I did a track day with 1/2 a day prep on Friday, inpromptu. The good news is that I got home, and didn't drive the car into a wall. Everything seemed mostly okay. The car was even a little faster than it was last time. I also got to get some good datalog data too. I also noticed a tiny bit of knock which was (luckily?) recorded. All I know is the knock sensors got recalibrated.... and are notorious for false knock. So I don't know if they are too sensitive, not sensitive enough... or some other third option. But I reduced timing anyway. It wasn't every pull through the session either. Think along the lines of -1 degree of timing for say, three instances while at the top of 4th in a 20 minute all-hot-lap session. Unfortunately at the end of session 2... I noticed a little oil. I borrowed some jack stands and a jack and took a look under there, but as is often the case, messing around with it kinda half cleaned it up, it was not conclusive where it was coming from. I decided to give it another go and see how it was. The amount of oil was maybe one/two small drops. I did another 20 minute session and car went well, and I was just starting to get into it and not be terrified of driving on track. I pulled over and checked in the pits and saw this: This is where I called it, packed up and went home as I live ~20 min from the track with a VERY VERY CLOSE EYE on Oil Pressure on the way home. The volume wasn't much but you never know. I checked it today when I had my own space/tools/time to find out what was going on, wanted to clean it up, run the car and see if any of the fittings from around the oil filter were causing it. I have like.. 5 fittings there, so I suspected one was (hopefully?) the culprit. It became immediately apparent as soon as I looked around more closely. 795d266d-a034-4b8c-89c9-d83860f5d00a.mp4       This is the R34 GTT oil sender connected via an adapter to an oil cooler block I have installed which runs AN lines to my cooler (and back). There's also an oil temp sensor on top.  Just after that video, I attempted to unthread the sensor to see if it's loose/worn and it disintegrated in my hand. So yes. I am glad I noticed that oil because it would appear that complete and utter catastrophic engine failure was about 1 second of engine runtime away. I did try to drill the fitting out, and only succeeded in drilling the middle hole much larger and now there's a... smooth hole in there with what looks like a damn sleeve still incredibly tight in there. Not really sure how to proceed from here. My options: 1) Find someone who can remove the stuck fitting, and use a steel adapter so it won't fatigue? (Female BSPT for the R34 sender to 1/8NPT male - HARD to find). IF it isn't possible to remove - Buy a new block ($320) and have someone tap a new 1/8NPT in the top of it ($????) and hope the steel adapter works better. 2) Buy a new block and give up on the OEM pressure sender for the dash entirely, and use the supplied 1/8 NPT for the oil temp sender. Having the oil pressure read 0 in the dash with the warning lamp will give me a lot of anxiety driving around. I do have the actual GM sensor/sender working, but it needs OBD2 as a gauge. If I'm datalogging I don't actually have a readout of what the gauge is currently displaying. 3) Other? Find a new location for the OEM sender? Though I don't know of anywhere that will work. I also don't know if a steel adapter is actually functionally smart here. It's clearly leveraged itself through vibration of the motor and snapped in half. This doesn't seem like a setup a smart person would replicate given the weight of the OEM sender. Still pretty happy being lucky for once and seeing this at the absolute last moment before bye bye motor in a big way, even if an adapter is apparently 6 weeks+ delivery and I have no way to free the current stuck/potentially destroyed threads in the current oil block.
