I finally found out how to kill that annoying 'beep! beep!' Yellow box, right underneath the wheel, slightly towards the passenger side. White clip in the bottom, unclip it. This is for r33 s1. Its right udner there, u'll probably need to chuck ur head rite under. Its about the size of 2 matchboxes put together.

Sorry for not being clear, i was in a bit of a hurry. The beep i'm refering to is the one where you have a door open and the key in the ignition. With regards to the speed limit beep - i'm not sure because my s1 r33 gts-t doesnt have it.

You can get rid of the beep from the key left in the ignition and door open without also killing the lights on reminder beep.

You will need to remove the plastic covers from above and below the steering wheel (6 screws from memory) and unplug the connector leading into the side of the ignition switch. Best to test it before putting everything back together, just in case you have disconnected the courtesy light on the key hole by mistake.

Now if someone could just tell me exactly where to find the little bastard of a box that beeps when you put it into reverse......

LOL... Reverse beeps...

Sorry i had to bring it up u reminded me...

I was at the shops yesterday and a little old lady got into her excel... Typical...

Anyways she wacks it in reverse... and the loudest reverse beeper i have ever heard (and i work round forklifts all day) started blaring from the car... Everyone pointed and laughed and looked at her... She pulls out next to me and says... get this "Can you hear that too, it may just be a touch too loud". I laughed so loud and she says "My husband put something on the car the other day, thats when the beeping started and he told me its to help me from hitting anyboday, again." I cracked up again and asked her what happened. She was backing out of a car space at the shops and hit a trolley and thought it was a person, so she stopped and looked. While that was happening she left her hand brake off and the car rolled away on her and hit a wall. So her husband put the sirens on to clear people away from the car so she needs no worry about hitting anyone.

Funniest thing ive had this month... Sorry but i needed to get that one out... LOL

I actually put a square looking press button in the dash, press once and its off, press again and its back on, switch cost me about $8.00.

If I'm working on the car I turn the beep off, if I'm using the car/travelling, I turn it on.

And its only for the key in ignition, I didn't touch the lights on beep.

Auto Skyline? hehe.. i found the box that makes the reverse beep and disconnected it. all good no beeping in reverse. Went to put my window down... nothin happened... hehehe. its the big box right at the back above the pedals from what i remember and it controls more than just the reverse beep. maybe if you cut one of the wires.

    • Just planning to have the wiring neat and hide as much as possible.
    • The sodium acetate, mixed with citric acid, doesn't actually buffer each other. Interestingly though, if you used Sodium Acetate, and acetic acid, THAT becomes a buffer solution. Additionally, a weak acid that can attack a metal, is still a weak acid that can attack a metal. If you don't neutralise it, and wash it off, it's going to be able to keep attacking. It works the same way when battery acid dries, get that stuff somewhere, and then it gets wet, and off it goes again breaking things down. There's a reason why people prefer a weak acid, and it's because they want TIME to be able to be on their side. IE, DIY guys are happy to leave some mild steel in vinegar for 24 hours to get mill scale off. However, if you want to do it chemically in industry, you grab the muriatic acid. If you want to do it quicker at home, go for the acetic acid if you don't want muriatic around. At the end of the day, look at the above thumbnail, as it proves what I said in the earlier post, you can clean that fuel tank up all you want with the solution, but the rust that has now been removed was once the metal of the fuel tank. So how thin in spots is your fuel tank getting? If the magazine on the left, is the actual same magazine as on the right, you'll notice it even introduces more holes... Well, rust removal in general actually does that. The fuel tank isn't very thick. So, I'll state again, look to replace the tank, replace the fuel hanger, and pump, work out how the rust and shit is making it past the fuel filter, and getting into the injectors. That is the real problem. If the fuel filter were doing its job, the injectors wouldn't be blocked.
    • Despite having minimal clothing because of the hot weather right now, I did have rubber gloves and safety glasses on just in-case for most of the time. Yes, I was scrubbing with my gloves on before, but brushing with a brush removes the remaining rust. To neutralize, I was thinking distilled water and baking soda, or do you think that would be overkill?
    • You can probably scrub the rust with a toothbrush or something. After you get the rust off flush well with water to neutralize and you will probably want to also use a fuel tank sealer to keep it from rusting again.
    • The sodium citrate solution is designed to buffer the citric acid to keep it from attacking metal quite so much, the guy that came up with that recipe did a ton of testing on how much metal loss occurs over time and it's nothing crazy unless you forget about it for months:
