Bee*R rev limiter Installation Guide (JZA70 specific)

[JZA70 R]

yeah there loving it. so they are going to last longer now are they?

if your still around, ill let you know when they finally let go

[jeffro ra28]

Actually may be advantageous as it will dump fuel in and cool everything down.

[ae95]

could also be a disadvantage as the fuel could wash the bores clean of oil
hence no lubrication

[Xistant]

if oil gets past the rings and into your combustion cycle your engine already has issues!

[JZA70 R]

theres always a thin film of oil on your cylinder bores for your rings to slide up and down against... how bout we stop the skeptisism until someone actually has a motor fail on them. Then you can talk "what if or when and how" all you like.

[jeffro ra28]

plenty have failed due to normal rev limiters. Why would the bee r be any better?.....lol

Using the rev limiter freqeuntly is no good no matter what the type.. More so for the valve train.

Proven this by bending 1 exhaust valve on a 600hp GTR with tomei springs etc..... Hit the limiter at high speeds tho....

Yes there is a film on the bores. however its mostly remains below the rings.

If the fuel is washing the bores the fuel is getting past the rings and washing what oil is below the rings and around the ring lands. Its got to be very fucking PHAT to do that. I know this because of first hand experience with methanol engines that use around 60 litres of fuel in a few minutes.
Its very uncommon on a unleaded fuel engine to wash the bore badly over short km's. Prolonged excessivly rich mixtures for a few thousand km's may show signs of greater bore wear. e.g. if you have phat mixtures under boost for short spirts it will have fuck all affect on your bore life but if its phat all the time like if your injector was fucked then yes it will wear your bore much more quickly.

ah thanks jeff was jsut about to reply to tod the wiser

Ohk bump this thread back up.

im having troubles with my Bee*R

Well it does work but only when REV1 is on 0 = 2500rpm. when i set it on others such as 1 = 3000rpm it dosnt work. GAIN is always on 1 and when i try setting it on other numbers and letters it dosnt work only works when REV1 is on 0 = 2500rpm.

Anyone know what could be causing this?

anyhelp much appreciated.

Cheers,
Heng

heng the little grey wire on the side of the rev limiter...have you made sure thats connected properly?

the limiter was off an SR20 and you need to cut it for a 4cyl...

ive got another one here you are welcome to borrow to test if you like

[JZA70 R]

yeah those two loops need to be connected for a 6cyl

Matty you got a couple eh? ...any for sale? how much did you pick them up for?

[MR 1JZ]

I got a couple yeah...I got one for the evo and one for the soarer...but im not putting one on the evo now so I sold one to heng

definitiely keeping the other for the soarer

[JZA70 R]

i have two, both 2nd hand. one for $150 and the other was free cause it was fried. but we got it fixed for $55 so thats pretty sweet, but now the original owner wants it back

Yup that gray wire is connected.

still not working properly and double checked the wiring still the same.

[MR 1JZ]

come and get the other one if you want dude...do a switcheroo and see if its the unit

let me know if you want it...might be able to drop off later
