Its not like I'm going to do it every gear change. Just to launch it in first gear on the odd occasion

And yeah pretty much cause it sounds cool

haha, yes i agree, redlining sounds mad, not like its bad for your car, when doing burnouts or you go drifting, you will hit redline a heap of times :D

just make sure you have a nice exhaust to go with it ;)

Well yeah kind of. I revved it to 7600rpm and got scared of doing damage so I took my foot off the throttle.

on my R33 it would go to exactly 7000 which was the redline and then bounce off the limiter in the R32 the redline starts with red dashes at 7000 then a solid redline at 7500 so I assumed the rev limiter should start at 7500

and for gods sake, do it when your engine is warm....... just saying, ive seen some people wreck their engines driving on the limiter when its cold.

also i think that every car with a ecu, at least ignition and injector ECU system has a rev limiter.

there was a bunch of chips being sold on the internet a few years back that removed limiter. ive personally driven an r32 gtst with (i can only assume) something similar.

it was pretty much stock except the thing revved right off the tacho. so above 9000 rpm. i couldnt find limiter lol.

car had many problems but amazing a spun bearing wasnt one of them lol.

EDIT

the bloke who owned it used to come on here. apex_sx or something like that

Of course I wouldnt do it cold, I NEVER take it above 2500rpm until the temp gauge is in the middle I'm sure the people who get stuck behind me in morning traffic are spun out that and R32 is being driven like a grandma but I want the engine to last.

Just out of interest If the limiter was removed would going just a tad over 8000rpm do any damage to the engine?

On stock internals?Then yes...eventually.

Nissan put a limiter on the max revs the engine will take,too risky going over it.

so just doing it once won't matter too much then?

if the limiter has been taken out i won't try it again

mine used to bounce at 7600-7700 with stock ecu. was slightly higher with nistue. but PLEASE keep it on the track!!!!!!!! on the street there is nothing more homosexual than wankers hitting limiter. its a true sign of a f**kwit.

    • Which solenoid? Why was it changed? Again, why was this done? ...well, these wear..but ultimately, why was it changed? Did you reset the idle voltage level after fitment? I'm just a tad confused ~ the flash code doesn't allude to these items being faulty, so in my mind the only reason to change these things, would be some drive-ability issue....and if that's the case, what was the problem? Those questions aside, check if the dropping resistor is OK ...should be 11~14 ohms (TCU doesn't throw a flash code for this) ~ also, these TCU designs have full time power (to keep fault code RAM alive), and I think that'll throw a logic code (as opposed to the 10 hardware codes), if that power is missing (or the ram has gone bad in the TCU, which you can check..but that's another story here perhaps).
    • Question for people who "know stuff" I am looking at doing the new intake like the one in the picture (the pictured is designed for the OEM TB and intake plenum), this design has the filter behind the front bar, but, the filter sits where the OEM duct heads into the front bar, and the standard aperture when the OEM ducting is removed allows the filter to pulled back out of the front bar into the engine bay for servicing, a simple blanking plate is used to seal the aperture behind the filter This will require a 45° silicone hose from the TB, like the alloy pipe that is currently there, to another 45° silicone hose to get a straight run to the aperture in the front bar Question: how will it effect the tune if I move the MAF about 100-150mm forward, the red is around where my MAF is currently, and the green would be where it would end up Like this This is the hole the filter goes through  Ends up like this LOL..Cheers    
    • Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.
    • Pull codes via the self-diagnosis procedure. As far as I can tell this is just a sign of transmission issues but not a code unto itself.
    • Hi All, putting the engine back together and everything is perfect except have this plug left over.. any ideas what it is for and where it goes? Is on cold side under the intake plenum *note not a stock plug, as everything has been modified Cheers
