Turbo Timer

[Drift R]

Hey All,

I'm going to buy and install a greddy turbo timer into my r32 gtst, apparantly they can do vehicle road speed, 1/4 mile time 0-100 etc and all that works fine in my friends R33 GTST, but R33's have electric speedo and therefore the ecu knows road speed and can calculate. R32's have mechanical speedo and i'm not even sure that the ecu knows vehicle road speed and therefore the functions won't work. The car is a Type M but I'm not sure if it has ABS ( the car is still on the boat) so the ecu might know speed from that. I just can't get my head around it.

Also how do I 'bump up' posts of mine in the 'for sale' section. Any help = greatly appreciated.

hhmmm.....didn't realise that picture was so big.

to bump u just post in it, and it goes back to the top of that forum, but i dont think its allowed....not too often at least

not sure about the turbo timer questions, but im always interested in stuff that ill need to know when i get my 33, so yeah

there is a wire that goes to the computer.... wire 53 i think? this is the speed sensor wire...

ive got a greddy turbo timer and a R32 so i know it works.... just splice the wire and join it to the turbo timer wire and your TT will recognise the speed once you synchronise it

are you guys talking about just what speed your doing, but reading it from the ECU, and not the dash speedo which can obviously be out? or am i way off

[Drift R]

Cheers, do you know where the speed sensor is located ie gearbox near speedo drive. I don't think my car has ABS so that'd mean no wheel speed sensors?

[Drift R]

yeah the ecu in an R33 reads the vehicle speed from a speed sensor in the gearbox and then it works the speedo but the 32's still use a speedo cable from box up.

speed sensor wire......

get it from the computer...
