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...

    • Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

    • The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/  
    • Yeah dunno why johhny posted that here with no context, just post on FB/insta bro where he put it up?  Laine had an off at T4 during Thurs prac, he's ok, car is less than perfect, they are done for the weekend, he can fill in the rest. Bando also binned it like 100m up the road.   
    • I feel there must have been a FB/insta post and the weekend did not start well at all I hope everyone is all okay
