you only get ~20km/h more by taking it to redline in 4th. there will still be a massive burnout without it.

i forgot about the chassis dyno factor- wouldn't be able to tune through the whole rev range in 4th if you don't have the speed-cut disabled

most JDM cars have a 180km/h speed cut built in

this includes R32,R33,R34

its usually a voltage signal to the standard ECU, the voltage increases as your speed goes up and reaches a certain voltage at 180km/h

most speed cut devices simply cap the signal so it never goes above say 0 or a very low speed so the ECU never see's voltage around 180km/h

there are a few ways to avoid this "cap" these are all coevered by searching, the speed cut has been done to death but as you haven't bothered to search;

1). cut the speed signal wire to the ECU (breaks HICAS diagnostics if you ever try it)

2). get a speed cut device (hks speed cut defencer, Apexi RSM, greedy make one too)

3). remap the ecu and edit the speed cut value

4). get a stand alone ecu

do r33's have a limiter, i have a standard ecu and have taken it to 202k's and backed off.

Probably just means your speedo is out, which is highly likely

Do a search and you will find instructions on the wire cut as mentioned.

the moral of this thread is " use the search function ".

i concur

    • A little follow up here on the ceramic coating.  We've had storms galore here and I've done a few ks, enough to gross them up  Consensus is that they didn't get as dirty as usual, the coating definitely repelled a little of the dirt and I think they kinda snowball. They get a little dirty and then they get dirty faster which makes sense. Cleaning them regularly would allow them to protect better.  Cleaning was a breeze. I tried first to just hose them off which, unsurprisingly, did nothing. But, making the wheels wet and then just wiping them over with a used but clean microfibre cloth was all that was required. I didn't need any cleaner at all, just water and a cloth. The wheels look amazing again.
    • Gave her a nice wash today and took extra time to clean off the tree sap and tar and crap. We have a usable garage now so she'll stay cleaner longer. Took a few snaps in some nice light afterwards.   
    • OK, solid mount Z1 diff brace is in, pretty straightforward, it picks up 3 diff hat bolts and ties them to 2 support bolts on the subframe. Pretty sure someone else on here said they had reduced axle tramp with this but mine was already pretty good for smooth wheelspin, and still is....will see you this goes over time and whether I end up with a broken rear diff hat
    • Ah yes, but the part in my hand was actually painted and fitted by me! I knew any front lip was likely to be sacrificial but I've had to fix it twice already... by the time I buy a fibreglass fixing kit, sort out sandpaper blocks, buy some fibreglass filler, body bog, spend the time and effort for a 'Greg' result... a new one being $290 seems like it's the better way to go and spray that with bedliner/raptor coat and we're all pretty again.. Would have preferred it last more than a month though. Them's the breaks I suppose.
    • I find it funny that the USA is finding out all this really really weird stuff, and people from the USA are coming here treating it like gospel, yet, all the info on solving those issues is here on these forums for the last 15 odd years... Also, I know how much heat it takes to ignite the hood lining of an R33 skyline. I worked it out myself... It also took a LOT of time, and heat for it to do it... Big single, and I needed to drive the car, so retarded the timing off to "protect it". Yeah, that was a bad move for cruising on a freeway with only 15 degrees of timing on it. That was a lesson I learned around 2009. So that's over 15 odd years ago. Aligning water and oil, that's identical for any turbo engine, it's not Japanese specific. If a shop doesn't know how to make sure the core is rotated the right way, then they shouldn't be touching any turbo engine. That's not a matter of "We haven't had Skylines for that long here"...
