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.

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      You know how your car rolled through a fence in your last jacking escapade? Scissor jacks increase the likely hood of that sort of thing happening immensely!

      http://calfinn.com.au/product/1500kg-standard-trolley-jack-cj-2t-c/1500kg-standard-trolley-jack-cj-2t-c   I have this and fits under a S3 33 GTR with no issues. Purchased in 2009 and not one issue. It was $950 back then. Not cheap but something so important isn’t worth cheaping out on.

      Just trying to get my head around this. At 5psi of boost, you turn on your wmi pump, and then you're using a 3000cc injector, to allow flow upto the actual engine, where you have your 6x200cc injectors and a 500cc injector. If the above is correct, what advantage are you obtaining by having the 3000cc injector blocking flow, is this just incase a line breaks between that injector and the motor you can stop flow immediately? Or are the 6x200cc and 500cc less injectors and just spray nozzle?

      Intro/R33 owner

      Welcome! New member myself, but I had an R33 back in 2002. Best advice I could give, based on my experience: if you're running the factory turbo, be very conservative with boost. I made the mistake of just fiddling around with the boost controller and cranking the boost for fun, and the end result was my intake pipes popping off frequently from the constant deluge of oil that was being blown into the recirc by the stressed-out turbo, which itself was siphoning oil from the engine and farting it out both sides of its centre bearing (or something to that effect). If I could do it all again, I would have gotten a new turbo and had a tune dialled in professionally and then just left it alone! Funny you mention the metal shavings in the gearbox, as I had the same thing - the probe plug (magnetic drain plug, essentially) would come out caked with shavings. At least it was doing its job. Not sure if that's just sacrificial wear and part of the deal, or if my gearbox was shagged, but I wasn't abusing it. Enjoy the R33 - they're a dying breed, and if they weren't $35k+ on CarSales in Queensland, I might have picked up one of those again, instead of the 370GT I own now (though I'm loving the 370GT, that big 3.7L V6 just hits different).

      Second time Skyline owner (R33 GTS-T and now a V36 370GT)

      Howdy folks. I owned an R33 back in 2002, which was thoroughly beyond my capacity (financially speaking) to maintain/insure, so we parted ways in 2004. Fast forward 21 years (to literally yesterday, in fact) and I'm now the proud owner of a 2007 V36 370GT. I'm happily surprised by how much power the VQ37VHR makes, compared to the RB25DET, considering the latter is turbocharged. I had planned to add a turbo at some point but I'm on the fence about whether I'll even need it (though I do love the sudden onset of extra torque). Any other 370GT owners around the traps, I'd love to hear about your experiences with this car (good and bad).
