Just wondering what happens when you reach the top speed on the stock speedo on the 33gts as it only goes up to 180 ...

do you stop going any faster or does the needle just stop at 180 and you keep going faster?... or do you go back in time...?

But if u dont run a standard ecu (or have had it chiped) it will go into the blank stuff.... I noticed mine at qld raceway down the back straight was not paying too much attention as i was more consirned about the up coming corner... But yeah it went into the blank stuff....

I was clocked at 190kph at the end of the straight....

Great Scott! You could run into your younger, slower self!

Hmm... 2gigawatts.... might be worth having a chat to Leewah, he's almost there! :P

I havent tried to stay in 4th gear in the R33 GTS and hit the limiter (about 7 grand), but I have gone past 180kph in 5th and it hits the limiter early at 5500rpm. I'm guessing around 190-200kph. I'm not sure how fast you can go in 4th gear at 7000rpm...

my speedo ( r31 wagon ) only goes to 180 kmh and i.m not running a signal to the rb25de ecu . SOOOO when i race at the salt lake in speed trials the speedo neddle just starts bouncing off the stop . The faster i go the bigger the needle bounces . Sooo when its bouncin really big i know i,m goin fastest ( the tacho keeps on goin up ) Best speed is 226 kmh electronically timed .

      After market rear camber arm adjustment

      By sonicii · Posted

      How much have you lowered?  I had 350Z springs in the rear and was able to pull the camber into factory spec with the factory arms on the rear, obviously the front ran negative camber as it isn't adjustable, but rotating the wheels regularly evened out the wear.

      R33 Fuel Pump & Brakes after alarm swap

      Either the installer needs to come back, you need an auto electrician, or you need to learn automotive electricals yourself.   First step Id look at is where that big thing came out of, is there still things unplugged at that location? Maybe they just forgot to put a relay in or something?

      Well, this is probably where a wiring diagram and a multimeter come into play.

      gauge needle removal

      I can say to anyone thats doing this; having done a number of R clusters; just be careful if its an unknown cluster.  It takes a bit of force to pull up; but if it feels excessive then its probably stuck. I've had this and pulled the entire hair spring out; and I can tell you; its not easy getting the correct spring replacement with the correct inner diameter and winding. In my case someone had used some sort of adhesive to stick it to the spindle and it pulled the whole spindle out; which the force seperated the hairspring from the spindal and caused it to deform.  You may have to clean it (IPA); or in my case if i'd known i should have used some sort of solvent on it.  Also check out Cruizin Central on eBay. He does all sorts of dials; and you can email him with any custom designs you want. So if you want like certain logos etc...he'll send you a mock of what it will look like then you accept the order and he'll take care of the rest. Fantastic dials and he can do basically any design you want.

      R33 GTST Axles

      Have you confirmed its the actual axles? Also the wheel bearings that mount on the hubs to hold the axles wear out. I replaced mine as they got play in them. It sorted my play issue.
