I drove my R34 GTT this morning and when i arrived home the car does not even turn off even after taking out the keys as the engine is still running, and to add more to the problem today is Sunday which i drove around finding a mechanic they are all closed.

My car is in the garage still bloody running after i took out the keys.

What can i do? please help!

The car turns off by itself when i leave it for 30 seconds cause thats when the alarm automatically turns on but from now on it is just like that when i take the key out, its auto, i will have it checked by a mechanic soon.

Thanks for the tips guys.

Yes i bought this car about 3 months ago, the previous owner said it is pretty much stock, not sure if this is useful to anyone but my alarm is from "Mangoose" it wasn't like this when i drove back and forth on a weekly basis from Sydney to Bathurst (2 and half hours drive) during my 3 month duration until just now.

Even if i just drive to my local Westfield which is approximately 10 minute drive, the car wouldn't shut off for at least 20-30 seconds.

Funny its just happening now all of a sudden.

Because whilst the car was on you pressed button III (picture of a siren) and enabled the stupid built in turbo timer. You can disable it by doing the same, whilst the car is running and the key is in & set to ON, then press button III and the siren will chirp indicating it's turned off..

here's a guide for it

I've installed several of these stupid alarms because my mates just read up on forums going "this alarm is zee hektic I want one".. I get cases of beer, so I just install and receive beer.. everyone wins LOL

YES!! that was spot on as it was the alarm button which i must have accidentally pressed that turn on the turbo timer which is connected to the turbo timer (did not know i had a turbo timer), saved myself time and money all thanks to you guys :D

Winner!

This is the silliest idea ever!

Car thief beats the alarm system's 3 interrupts, then has a point to start your car, any turbo timer fitted.

Turbo timer gives a thief the three things it needs to start your pride & joy:

1. Power

2. Accessories

3. Ignition

May as well just hand your keys over!

Turbo timers are the biggest wank PERIOD!!

^ my first mods were:

  • remove & sell turbo timer
  • remove & sell wanky boost gauge
  • remove & sell BOV
  • remove & sell turbosmart boost controller
  • remove & sell pod filter

LOL

One of our apprentices recently bought an R33 GTST. It has a 2-5/8'' LIQUID FILLED boost gauge screwed to the upper left corner of the steering column shroud. I wondered why the previous owner had forked the extra for the liquid?

Wheel balance issues?

brake shudder maybe?

No, it was bigger than that.

The liquid is to smooth out the violent shaking from the engine overheating & sh#tting itself, because the boost gauge completely obstructs the temp gauge!

I pointed this out to the apprentice 5 months ago, boost gauge is still there..........

lol rice is nice alright haha

I have 1x gauge in my car and it's a wideband AFR other than that, there are no wanky dials in my car. There's a slim Engine Guardian which shows my water temp, oil temp and alerts on low oil pressure and doesn't stand out.

    • Well, fun day was had, I finally found a house that will do me just fine, 1980's brick build, but with full fresh renovations, plus new colour bond fencing all round so puppies are incoming 馃悤, and water tanks for the garden, and it's located in West Goulburn..... @Duncan 馃, so day trips to Wakie to watch cars going Zoom will be on the cards In the end it cost well under my budget and was actually better than alot of the more expensive joints I was looking at, it is in a good area, close enough to the shops, public transport, and the Wollondilly River Weir,  and the great walking paths along the river, but far enough away from town to see minimal traffic The deposit is dropped, the conveyancer is conveyancing and I should get the keys in a week or 2 as the property is currently unoccupied  As with everything I own, I'm doing up a modifications list, as it doesn't have solar, that is first up on the big list, all of the panels and enough batteries to keep the joint warm, or cool, followed by a largish carport out the front, the small list, which will start as soon as I have keys, is some security stuff, like cameras, screens, and the usual "crazy prepper" additions that weird old people like (mouse holes to stick shot guns out of, and the usual man traps that the average person installs for the unsuspecting and unwanted guests 馃ぃ) The gardens front and back are OK, but, not to my standards or liking, so landscaping will be a fun job to start getting into, so when spring is sprung I'll do a heap of planting, lots of natives and vegetables is the plan, the old owners were more "Old English Garden" type, so basically Roses and other weird looking things that are destined for the green waste bin One thing that is staying garden wise is a nice established hedge out the front, it is about 5 foot tall and covers the whole front of the property from prying eyes As for the car hoist, the roof in the garage has some height to it, but, I'll need to get an installer out to see what can be done, width wise may be a issue, but my building inspector will be getting back to me over the next week with his recommendations  Small, but cosy     
    • I tried to get in contact before I went to QLD you didn鈥檛 respond, then I tried to contact you in r31 club.  I thought you fell off the earth or something haha.  I will grab it off you but unknown when I will be up that way 
    • I think that might be in the question. He is going very low, and I think the standard GTR ones are simple tripod joints (like the rear NA/S chassis ones), not proper CVs (like R chassis turbo/GTR ones). Proper CVs take the misalignment better than tripods.
    • Do you still need the wiper motor and stuff?
    • I haven't used the Crank Motorsport ones, but can I ask why not use standard gtr/gts4 axles at the front? They would easily cope with that power level. BTW.....sounds like quite the project!
