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.

    • I’m not sure what happened I told them about sonic tunes free OTS tune and the next the I know .. I was booted..   To funny 
    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
    • Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed
    • Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
