ohk just had my new alarm installed yesterday... however the remote start keeps trying to start the car after it turns it on

i was told that i will have to wrapp te wire around one of the coil packs and it would fit it.. and i did this... however the problem is still happening

does anyone have any ideas?

mm i didnt think so

i was told that the electromagnetic field produced from the coilpacks would induce a current (which makes sence, hence flux) in the wire and indicate to the alarm that the engine is on and to disscontine trying to start the car

however a friend who installed his own alarm in his cressida said he connected his remote start to his tacho wire

i am thoughrly confused right about now

and im just wondering if anyone with an r33 has remote start as part of thier alarm.. and if so how they overcame this

R33 is behind the dash - yel/red on a S1 not sure what it is on a S2. do you own a multimeter and KNOW how to use it?

if no - pay a shop. you can wipe out a LOT of electrics on that car if you are not careful teh ECU bing one of them.

yup... i own a multimeter and i know how to use it :)

i cant be f***'d pulling the dash out so hopefully it comes down in the section of the loom that is accessable from under the steering collum

so i'll keep my eye out for a yellow and red wire cheers

you dont have to drop the dash just to get to the tacho sense wire, the easiest solution would be to run the wire into the passengers kick trim and connect it to the ECU, from memory it is pin 7 from the ECU but i would check that first

Google is your friend, do a search for R33 ECU pinouts and im sure you will find the correct wire

Its obviously keeps tryin to start because the alarm isnt sensing any input to stop the module from cranking

you were able with the old style remote start alarms to wrap the sense wire around one of the ignition leads goin to the coil but this cant b done with the new style alarms

ohk... all fixed

thanks to Kris (krsysui) i managed to locate the tacho wire from the ECU

for all r33 boys its yellow with blue stripe.. both S1 and S2 so i dont know where you got the idea of yellow/red chris rogers... but thanks anyways

i took the wire and spliced into the tacho wire and the problem is now fixed :P

thanks all

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      The old manifold was quite under the GTR strut brace.  The new manifold is quite [unknown] the GTR strut brace. The GTR strut brace was needed to clear the bonnet vents. The Old strut brace will almost certainly clear the new manifold, but not the bonnet vents. The old strut brace will almost certainly clear the new manifold, and the new bonnet without vents. But I am hoping the GTR strut brace clears the new manifold :p

      Bonnet clearance?

      Magnetic Drain Plug Snapped in Half

      On the bright side, at least you knew that it happened and remedied before anything happened. A friend of mine just took his Fiat 124 to a shop for an oil change and they didn't tighten the oil filter housing properly. 4.5 quarts spewed out and even after refilling + tightening the cap the engine has a tick now.

      So, more pain. The FAST manifold is a little larger than the stocker. This is problematic because there really wasn't much clearance to begin with, so going from 'barely enough' well into 'no' is sad based on the external dimensions of the thing, even though where it bolts to the head is the same. Result is the fuel rails sit a good 25mm higher, and this is a bit of an issue with the wiring that runs behind the motor, and the fuel lines, and everything else. When pushing the manifold on, it required a huge amount of force to crush wiring looms to fit it, sensors like the MAP sensor are about 1mm from the firewall, and the FPR just has to bend ABS lines to be forced into place. After some brainstorming and some sad drinking, the loom for some reason ran from the grommet behind the ABS sensor, then to the driver side head, then back to the passenger side head. So all of this was pulled back and stripped, a few wires cut and rejoined, so that the 'branch' was now on the passenger side's head as below: Before you basically couldn't see anything behind the driver head. This is much improved! The MAP sensor is now pointing up (instead of at the firewall) Brackets have been made up for the rail. The rails are for a LS1, the manifold is designed around a LS2 as it's base. Which of course has slightly different bracketry and water pump clearance, hence the mods people need to do. Should be hopefully mounted tonight. I spent money on a new FPR that is slightly more compact than my Turbosmart FPR1200. The gauge has also been moved to the rail. There's also apparently an ORB to AN Union instead of the adapter, because the ~25mm of the current adapter is going to make the difference. Provided this all goes together and arrives today, it'll be the totally not stressful attempt to start it.

      Finding E-30 & E-85 in Sydney

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      This seems like a pointless exercise. There is no E30 availability. Ongoing availability of E85 should not be assumed. Flex-fuel is the only sensible approach, so you can use E85 when and where you can get it, 98 when that's al you can get, and anything in between as you fill it up and drain it down. And if that means replacing the pumps, fitting a flex capable sensor/ECU/whatever has to be done to these Renault shitboxen, then.....so be it?
