cool? it's a pain in the a$$. My GTR has this chime, but thank f**k the previous owner 'tried' to disable it so it only works intermitently and when it does work it's muffled. the strange thing is it never used to activate when I was using my kakimoto ecu, when I put the power FC in I noticed it straight away, possibly just a coincidence though. I say get rid of it as soon as is possible.

Its up under the kick where your left knee is. Smallish black box say 2-3inchs by 3-4 inches. Just unplug it, go for a drive. If its the door one, PUT IT BACK, it can play up with your central locking etc if its the door/left the lights on beep one.

yer that thing drives me insane.. i also changed ecu's and it went away but guess what... its back! smallish black box you say?... that little f%#k is dead tomorrow!

There is about 3 of them tho. So just unplug them one by one first. From memory it was the far left one. But I took mine out well over a year ago, so I really cant remember.

My gawd I thought it was something wrong with my speedo or something. I had a suspicion that it was a speed warning as it always comes on at the same speed - a ticking sound - but it seems inconsistent - seems to have stopped now.

Kills you when driving long distance in 110k zones - just have to turn up the stereo.

Yeah its the furthest to the left. Just stick your head under there and you can see it. Really simple to remove. Removed mine 2 weeks ago.

You guys are lucky. On the 32's its located directly behind the instrument cluster. You have to dismantle the dash to get to it so you can snip the wire.

When your looking for the cef one, if you remove the door/light chime you will this will affect your alarm/central locking (if you got it) the only way to over come this is to wire them into each other so you still have a closed circuit. But this will eliminate your warnings by doing this.

:P

LoL. Dude TRUST me it is still there. Easy way to tell, when you go to sleep, do you hear this DING, DING, DING and see 110kmh on a circle when your dreaming?

Yes I do hear the DING, DING, DING, but the circle indicates 180kmh...

      Much less twat-tastic. CF wheels are too garish for civilised use.

      From there, as the manual says....assembly is the reverse of disassembly, no tricks worth mentioning Much better (for me)

      In my case, the standard wheel I had was in good condition but the buttons had more wear, so I swapped them across from the original wheel from the car. The plastic rear cover is held on by 4 tabs, and once the wiring is removed you can get access to 2 screws on each side the hold the buttons in From there I just swapped the wiring over. What was interesting is the standard style wheel is 2.0kg but the carbon fibre one is 50% heavier at 2.9kg. It even has a weight inside the wheel at the top to make up for some sort of imbalance in the design. weird

      Once the airbag is off, to remove the steering wheel.... Undo the 2 plugs into the clock spring, and the horn connector from it's clip. Hit the 19mm nut with a rattle gun (preferably) or if you don't' have one, you probably want an assistant to hold the wheel in place while you use a breaker bar to undo the nut Then, screw the nut back on 3 turns, and pull the wheel sharply towards you. If that doesn't work hit it medium force with a rubber mallet on either side, or possible behind if you can get there. If that all fails (it shouldn't!) you might need a steering wheel puller

      So, to next task....the carbon fibre steering wheel was either an expensive factory option or a chinesium special. Either way, I don't like either the flat bottom or thick ring style, so it had to go So...to remove the steering wheel.... First, disconnect battery negative and stomp on the brake pedal for a few seconds. Then, remove the small circular covers on each side of the wheel's rear surround to uncover the airbag clips. You need to push something like a flat bladed screw driver through, to push the steel clip inwards and pull the side of the airbag forward. Once you've done the easy side, same on the centre console side. You can see the tab you are shooting for circled in red Then, disconnect the horn spade connector and for the yellow airbag plug you need to get something small under the black locking tab to pop it out, then the connector releases......airbag is off
