I hope someone might be able to give me some ideas on what to check.

I disconnected the battery to wire in a 12v and Gnd for an elec boost controller on my R33 GTS-T. Once i finished i connected it back up and the alarm went off thats fine. But i tried to use the remote to unlock it and turn off the alarm no go. I turned off the sound manually then tried to start the car no go. So i figured ok the car is immobolised.

Called the ppl up that put in the secuirity and they told me a way to by pass the immoboliser so i did that, still no go. He said to check all the fuses and i have checked all the ones i know about. Couple in the boot engine bay and drivers footwell.

All the normal electrics are on like headlights and dash but the windows and audio which didnt work untill it was unlocked are not however working. The LED for the Alarm is also not flashing at all, which isnt right cos it would flash when it was unlocked or locked before. when i put in the key and turn it over i cant hear any noise.

Is there anything else i can check? Hidden fuses, relays i need to check?

I know it does still sound like it could be the immobiliser but he assured me that if i shorted the correct wires behind the ignition back to there original places it would bypass the alarm and allow it to start. And the answer would be no to getting someone out to look at it at this stage :S

So you have removed the alarm unit?

Yeah the guy that installed it gave me a way to bypass it so i guess that cant be it.

Try checking all fuses with a test light, some fuses look fine but are blown.Immobilisers generally have fuses close by the unit, follow all wiring related to it and check fuses.

Thanks for the suggestions

There are a few fuses near the alarm i have checked them and all the ones in the driver kick panel, engine bay and in the boot.

There also seems to be no electricity getting to the dash status lights or the security system :S what else could cause this?

      Replacing turbo water line - any recommendations or advice?

      By jtha7 · Posted

      Hi all, Restoring r33 series 1 rb25det. All the heater hoses were on their way out, have replaced them and put it all back together. After testing I noticed a small leak from behind the head on the actual metal water line to the turbo when cars warm. I tried running a longer hose over it but it kept leaking...   I am about to take the (stock) manifold off again😔 to change the water line does any one have any lines they recommend? I was looking at Aeroflow Turbo Oil & Water Line Set but not sure what everyone else recommends. Car is completely stock but want to upgrade turbo eventually. it looks like ill have to disconnect a lot just to replace these lines so if there's anything else recommended to do please let me know. Thank you in advance!

      From memory, on the R33 GTSt at least, while everyone says "It's not adjustable", I found when I changed clutches in mine, it just needed a small adjustment on the rod length. But be very wary here, as you could end up trying to push the pushrod in the master too far, or blowing out the slave.   Most likely though, if the master/slave isn't bypassing internally or leaking out, then the throw out is the wrong height compared to the fingers on the clutch, so when it moves to disengage the clutch, it isn't 100% disengaged. You can check part of this out too by jacking the car up, having the engine running, put your foot on the clutch and try to engage 1st gear. If it goes in pretty easy (Compared to the ground) and/or the wheels start turning a fair bit and it takes a bit too much brake pedal to bring them back to a stop, this is likely the issue.  I'm not sure if you can adjust the height of the forks etc in these though, it's been that long since I've touched any RB gearbox.

      That's all good, I thought I was missing some interesting feature! Maybe @PranK can double check if that is something that is meant to be operating or not.

      I hope that is not something that bad. From what i remember he said that only first gear is "hard" to get in and that he has couple of ideas what to try next but idk 😕  hope it is not gearbox out. I will let you know.

      If it's not the hydraulics, it is probably gearbox back out. Usually as per @Duncan's post, or otherwise associated with not getting the throwout fork positioned correctly. All the way up to catastrophically bolting shit back together without it being aligned properly and wrecking the clutch/input shaft/flywheel/something else.
