Hi all

I need some doubts answered.

What is the "max safe speed" that a 4 door r33 model skyline can go to for 1st gear and 2nd gear?

It is a rb25de engine. auto transmission.

sorry for asking but the RPM meter is eff'ed :/

and also last but not least the tyre pressure on stock wheels.

thnx all :3some:

If you have to ask you shouldn't own one...

4 Doors have a much higher top speed than the 2 doors...safe top speed is about 400kmp/h and auto will handle it with no drama's at all.

NO!

If its an auto, drive it nicely and let it shift by itself. Don't slap shift gears, just leave it in drive, and if ...for what ever reason, you absolutely must and insist on using sub gears....there is a rev limiter which SHOULD kick in before you blow anything up...then again, do it on a regular basis and It'll blow up anyway. Get the tacho fixed...that won't be rocket science...well for most people it isnt.

Tyre pressure should be 32 PSI all round if I recall correctly.

thnx for the info... i think i cant fix the tacho... heard its not fixable.. have to get a new one.... or a used one... well im not sure... i actually plan to get those white glow gauges too but heard it wont fit.... :D

I'd suggest 60 in 1st, and 100 in 2nd be the limit...but if it's an auto, then just change the trans fluid and filter, then leave it to change on it's own...thats what a group of highly experienced engineers got paid to design it for. Unless you know better, of course.

    • Cats are called Bella, and Donna...  Like that poisonous plant And I remember your 2 monsters, I remember making a little bit of wee when you let them out... LOL I have already installed cat doors into the laundry where their kitty litter is, and the sun room, apart from the cat doors there's not going to be any permanent mounted stuff on the interior walls (interior doors are cheap and easy to replace) I will get a outdoor cat cage thingie once I finish the landscaping out back... https://catnip.com.au/ The only off limit areas are the main bedroom and the gym room....but, currently the cats are curled up in bed, in the main bedroom with the Mrs.....LOL, the off limits for the kittens to the main bedroom lasted about 5 minutes with Jackie I currently only have 1 free standing huge cat tree multiple level scratching post thingie in the lounge room, but, I will be getting another one soon now that I'm happy with the furniture layout in the back room and have a perfect spot for it  
    • All of this is making it seem clear that running the Coppermix twin was definitely the way to go, especially in hindsight with how insane tariffs have gotten and the strength of the USD vs yen at the time.
    • That sounds like no chance of even importing one for road registering then Now I see why Duncan wants to check LHD rules for Targa...   I wonder how "bolt in" the AWD would be if you got one imported from the US and swapped it to an AUD one
    • Not to mention they drive like a bucket of bolts! yuck!
