I've searched and come up with some info about replacing the standard r33 airbag wheel.

So far I know I should either disconnect the battery or disconnect the fuses under the steering wheel.

Either side of the wheel there are tamper proof screws.....What next.

I couldnt find a DIY, if there is one can some please post the link....

Thanks

I bought a non-airbag hicas boss kit from justjap. The after market wheel doesn't have an airbag

Hey mate

I'm not 100% sure but i think its illegal to have a non air bag wheel on a car that came with factory airbags..

may also void insurance if they notice during a crash investigation.

as i say not 100% sure but maybe something to look into with your local authority..

Goodluck with it

Corey,

if your car came factory with airbags then you need an airbag boss kit.

it stops the airbag light from going off.

and maybe screwing with the computer even? im not sure on that one but yea u need air bag boos kit either way dude

    • roof rail delete used to be a thing, they were made locally for a while too
    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
    • If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
