Hi guys,

If we remove the 4wd fuse (gtr34 v-spec) to measure the rwkw on a 4wd dyno, what will affect or damage to the drive line??

In normall driving condition (without torque split), is it true that the gtrs are running permanant on 25% front and 75% rear power??

Any explains would be appriciated, CHEERS !!!

COOL !! that's a costy way to test but !! hehe

Any way, while tuning my car on a 4wd dyno, the 4wd and a-lsd check light came on together but we didn't know how to fix it. So we decided to run on rwd mode. As I noticed, it ran like a 100% rwd (front wheels didn't move) and when we let go the accelerator, the front wheels started to catch up a bit. Now it smells like a clutch burn (in the transfer case possibly). I wasn't sure where the smell is from, because i dripped some oil while doing an oil change before the dyno day.

So, what do you reckon?? the smell is from the oil that I dripped or from a burned clutch?? it's been a week already but the smell is still there.

cheers!!

ya smokin ya clutch packs mate, and it will smell like a wood fire burning pretty much as i had a local workshop think they knew what they were doin and did exactly the same thing. smoke come billowing out the shifter hole into the car as a result of about a 5 sec run up on the dyno.

take the front drive shaft out that connects to the front diff and u will have no problem. its about a 5 min job and 4 bolts to remove is all it takes.

i smelt my clutch packs burning for about 500km after that as they must have got really cooked :dry:

if ya in perth i can recommend a shop to never ever let touch it :D

but hang on. The 4wd check light was on, that means the torque didn't split at all. Doesn't it mean that the car was performed on rwd only??? and we ran it on a 4wd dyno (not 2wd dyno) in the rwd mode(no torque split). This way , do we still have to remove the front drive shaft?? and it was strange that it ran like a 100% rwd car when we rev up...

    • Nah. You need 2x taps for anything that you cannot pass the tap all the way through. And even then, there's a point in response to the above which I will come back to. The 2x taps are 1x tapered for starting, and 1x plug tap for working to the bottom of blind holes. That block's port is effectively a blind hole from the perspective of the tap. The tapered tap/tapered thread response. You don't ever leave a female hole tapered. They are supposed to be parallel, hence the wide section of a tapered tap being parallel, the existince of plug taps, etc. The male is tapered so that it will eventually get too fat for the female thread, and yes, there is some risk if the tapped length of the female hole doesn't offer enough threads, that it will not lock up very nicely. But you can always buzz off the extra length on the male thread, and the tape is very good at adding bulk to the joint.
    • Nice....looking forward to that update
    • Neg, the top one is actually for the front. The sizes are 18x10.5 +18 and 18x11 +32.   I measured many times but I'm sure I'll have problems as this is the thread for problems.
    • Just one thing; tapping tapered threads is tricky. Taps are always tapered and you would generally run it as far as you can, but with a tapered thread you have to stop much sooner otherwise the wide part of the taper will run in too far and you will have to thread the sensor in too far too as well (possible that it will never make a good seal) BTW nice wide wheels, I guess the top one is for the back!
    • Welp, good to know. Will have to wait awhile until steady hands with drills and taps are available. In other news, these just arrived! I will weigh them for posterity. Edit: 11kg each (or 10.9/11.1 depending on what my scale decides over multiple tests, the 18x11 don't seem to weigh noticeably any more than 10.5)
