After reading all of that Im still confused, Using a normal Bee-r limiter, like the ones sold on SAU right now, is it likely to damage your turbo if u hit the limiter often? or say a couple of times each time you go for a drive,

So whats the cheapest option for a 0km/h (stationary) rev limiter? Have always thought about one of these, i don't really care about the ignition cut as i don't want to destroy the cat so i don't wanna spend $300 on a BeeR.

I'm guessing you can't do something with the LT12S to do it?

Yeah see i'd rather not do that (even though it would be fun shooting huge flames and launching on boost).

Would rather just a normal rev limiter (fuel cut) on stand still so i can dial in the exact rpm to launch from. Similar to what the new FG falcon's have, hold in the clutch and flloor it and it limits revs to like 4000rpm or whatever.

The microtech probably has the option in there. Have a squiz at the manual for it /software.

Hmm ok i had a look in the manual and there is an Aux Input function that sets a rev limiter when the (12V) Aux input is activated.

Explains it furthur saying "You can hook up a 12V switch to the AUX input and set a limit figure in the InpRPMlim screen and use the InpTiming screen to retard timing slightly. When the button is presed, the engine will be limited to this rpm figure, and the timing retarded. Releasing the button will deactivate the rev limiter and return the timing to its normal value, allowing the engine to instantly produce full power. This way you can very easily use the Aux Input to set up a basic two-step."

So in other words, you could somehow hook it up to the handbrake and have the rev limiter set until you release the handbrake?

Might look into this furthur and play around with it a bit.

digging up an old thread but i was researching gizmo products and came across this thread.

Note that's the new Launch interface allows timing retard settings and support for other engines

being used on a Silvia, sounds like rb25

small demo on the shift light that integrates with the launch control

    • Oof, I will forevermore have those shredded gears in mind whenever someone talks about showing mechanical sympathy towards their car. Thanks for the photos, fascinating stuff!
    • Curious to see how the SpeedTek stuff holds up
    • The holdups last year were drivetrain related. I had the car out right after getting the bearing issue resolved. Third launch and the car didn't move after releasing the clutch. It had sheared all the engagement teeth off the 1st gear.    Thankfully no other damage was done. I set an aftermarket gear beside an OEM gear and found that the engagement teeth on the OEM gear were much larger and better supported. Looking through my bin of spare transmission gears I found that there are two types of tooth on the OEM first gears - the larger tooth and the smaller tooth. It looks like most aftermarket gearset manufacturers base their design on the smaller tooth. OEM large tooth left - Speedtek, OS Giken, etc or OEM small tooth right Decided to give that larger engagement tooth a try. Pressed the ring off an OEM gear and sent it to a transmission manufacturer here in the States. They did their "faceplating" operation with my synchro ring on the Speedtek gear.   I reassembled it, took it back to the track and promptly destroyed the gear itself.  I'll rebuild this and use it as a spare - thankfully just first gear and the countershaft are damaged beyond repair. Definitely disheartening but my welded on engagement tooth ring held up!  Moved to Speedtek's dog engagement design as the gears appear to be much stronger. So far they have taken much more abuse at the track. Also scored a Stillway lockout from the Netherands for super cheap. It's for some other RB transmission so it took a bit of fabrication to fit but honestly a very easy job. I also had to heavily modify the gates as they were very different.   Then for some reason at the last test and tune a silicon coupler below the throttle blew off and took out the radiator and fan. Thankfully it was in the burnout box and not down track. This car is really beating me up - I still haven't made a pass in it. Ran it through the gears many times on the street but it keeps biting me at the track.  Currently in the process of replacing the radiator and remaking the throttle pipe to remove the coupler and use a cast 90 and a vband. I WILL get this thing down the track...
    • Covers most of the above points really. There's a few exceptions but most just see driving as an irritating but necessary task they must complete if they want to get anywhere on time. Also see it as a good time to show their awesome multi-tasking abilities on their mobile and/or doing their makeup.
