you only get ~20km/h more by taking it to redline in 4th. there will still be a massive burnout without it.

i forgot about the chassis dyno factor- wouldn't be able to tune through the whole rev range in 4th if you don't have the speed-cut disabled

most JDM cars have a 180km/h speed cut built in

this includes R32,R33,R34

its usually a voltage signal to the standard ECU, the voltage increases as your speed goes up and reaches a certain voltage at 180km/h

most speed cut devices simply cap the signal so it never goes above say 0 or a very low speed so the ECU never see's voltage around 180km/h

there are a few ways to avoid this "cap" these are all coevered by searching, the speed cut has been done to death but as you haven't bothered to search;

1). cut the speed signal wire to the ECU (breaks HICAS diagnostics if you ever try it)

2). get a speed cut device (hks speed cut defencer, Apexi RSM, greedy make one too)

3). remap the ecu and edit the speed cut value

4). get a stand alone ecu

do r33's have a limiter, i have a standard ecu and have taken it to 202k's and backed off.

Probably just means your speedo is out, which is highly likely

Do a search and you will find instructions on the wire cut as mentioned.

the moral of this thread is " use the search function ".

i concur

    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
