Yeah posted by me. When I first found it 6 months back, I noticed the was R33 wiring diagram on their FAQ, so someone has one on a 'line.

The only that has stopped me trying one is that I intend to try and make a controller that can do this, amongst other things (ie. AFM intercept, boost control, data log, and maybe traction control)

Hi Guys,

Launch control, flat shift and anti-lag can be found in some of the more advanced engine managment systems around, the Autronic SM2 has all three. They are definately cool features, but tend to be for serious drag racers, in the 9sec or less bracket. That's not to say that they wouldn't make a difference to a Skyline, but I think it would remove some of the fun.

b2barker,

If you manage to make one of these I'm sure we'd all be interested in the results. Good luck

See'ya:burnout:

1.8??? Thats shit.

better than yours so shut up till u beat it k

he was only joking skyzerr :P

I think these things are only about $290 or $300, which imho is pretty good compared to the few grand you'd need for ems which supports it (even though they obviously carry many more benefits)...in fact I'm thinking of scrapping the tyres idea and going straight for this one :D

has anyone had any experience with these? either this box or from their ems functions?

If this is what I think it is, it's just an optional rev limiter.

Hold a button in and it limits revs to a pre set level (ie. 3500rpm).

The E6K on my mates GT4 has it and it allows you to have very consistant launches. Neck snapping launches actually :):)

Pretty sure that it could be used on RWD cars too, like I said, it just limits revs.

      I mean, I got two VASS engineers to refuse to cert my own coilovers stating those very laws. Appendix B makes it pretty clear what it considers 'Variable Suspension' to be. In my lived experience they can't certify something that isn't actually in the list as something that requires certification. In the VASS engineering checklist they have to complete (LS3/NCOP11) and sign on there is nothing there. All the references inside NCOP11 state that if it's variable by the driver that height needs to maintain 100mm while the car is in motion. It states the car is lowered lowering blocks and other types of things are acceptable. Dialling out a shock is about as 'user adjustable' as changing any other suspension component lol. I wanted to have it signed off to dissuade HWP and RWC testers to state the suspension is legal to avoid having this discussion with them. The real problem is that Police and RWC/Pink/Blue slip people will say it needs engineering, and the engineers will state it doesn't need engineering. It is hugely irritating when aforementioned people get all "i know the rules mate feck off" when they don't, and the actual engineers are pleasant as all hell and do know the rules. Cars failing RWC for things that aren't listed in the RWC requirements is another thing here entirely!

      Best place to order Authetic R32 Parts in Japan

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I don't. I mean, mine's not a GTR, but it is a 32 with a lot of GTR stuff on it. But regardless, I typically buy from local suppliers. Getting stuff from Japan is seldom worth the pain. Buying from RHDJapan usually ends up in the final total of your basket being about double what you thought it would be, after all the bullshit fees and such are added on.

      Ethanol Content Sensor - Always at 11%?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The hydrocarbon component of E10 can be shittier, and is in fact, shittier, than that used in normal 91RON fuel. That's because the octane boost provided by the ethanol allows them to use stuff that doesn't make the grade without the help. The 1c/L saving typically available on E10 is going to be massively overridden by the increased consumption caused by the ethanol and the crappier HC (ie the HCs will be less dense, meaning that there will definitely be less energy per unit volume than for more dense HCs). That is one of the reasons why P98 will return better fuel consumption than 91 does, even with the ignition timing completely fixed. There is more energy per unit volume because the HCs used in 98 are higher density than in the lawnmower fuel.

      No, I'd suggest that that is the checklist for pneumatic/hydraulic adjustable systems. I would say, based on my years of reading and complying with Australian Standards and similar regulations, that the narrow interpretation of Clause 3.2 b would be the preferred/expected/intended one, by the author, and those using the standard. Wishful thinking need not apply.
