hey guys, ive locked myself out of the boot of my r33 gts-t skyline. was messing about with the lock, as my key will not open the boot and now neither will my boot release as ive locked it with the lever. is the key that opens the boot the same key used in the ignition, or is it seperate? i was only given a single key with the car. also, do i have to take the back seats off to get into the boot, or do they slide down like a normal car? i cant seem to find any lever for them...

To get in via the rear you need to remove seat, remove sound proofing mat stuff, remove the plate which has about 20 bolts then climb in past the battery if you can, I suppose its not stupid hard but it wont be fun.

there is a little black lever on the boot lock that when in position "A" let the release in the car open it and when in position "B" it wont open via the release only a key. Its designed this way so that you can put stuff in the boot, put the lever in "B" and if someone gets into the car they can not open the boot.

Quite often gets hit by accident and people lock them selfs out because at some stage the door locks were replaced but not the boot so their key wont work.

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
