Hey guys,

i got no idea about transmission n shit for my car just got a couple of quick questions (yes they are kinda noob)

1. Do auto r33 s1 N/A's have a rev limiter if i put it in neutral / park? kinda a argument / debate between a few of me and my mates have (dont ask)

2. Say i put my car in 2nd, then drive it get to high revs in 2nd then put in 3rd then rev it out again then Drive. Will this do damage?

thx, leigh.

I don't have an auto r33, but my thoughts would be - Why would the transmission make a difference to whether the engine has a rev limiter? Or what gear the transmission is in at the time?

My answer would be - of course it has a rev limit.

2. Say i put my car in 2nd, then drive it get to high revs in 2nd then put in 3rd then rev it out again then Drive. Will this do damage?

4 speed auto? Probably won't do much, since in this case D and 3rd will be the same thing, but drive will switch it into overdrive (4th, assuming overdrive is selected) if the revs are high enough for it to want to switch.

5 speed? I'm guessing, but going from 3rd to D will just switch it to 4th when the computer wants to (assuming the revs are correct for it to switch to 4th, otherwise it might stay in 3rd), which shouldn't cause it any real issues

(* Unless you're doing this stationary, in which case, yeah, it'll probably break something; *reving out 3rd will probably put you beyond any legal speed limit in australia as well)

No idea whether the R33's N/A's have 4 or 5 speed auto's though, perhaps somebody can clarify

i can only go as low as gear 2 for some reason (which means like 110 k's).. seen some with 1.. whats going on there? how come some are different? (i got 2, 3, D does this mean 5 speed? seems like i have 4.. + overdrive ofcourse)

I might be wrong (I can't remember cause I've never used them, being tiptronic) but my R34 GTT auto only has 2 & 3. They're a 4 speed.

I thought the R33's were 5 speeds, but I don't know if turbo's and N/A's are different.

Tried just counting how many gear changes you go through to work out if it's a 4 or 5 speed? Don't even have to floor it, just count the changes as you go up through the gears.

      I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps

      According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car.

      It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.

      If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
