Hi guys, I came across this add on ebay for a torque controller. I emailed the seller and asked if it would work on a stagea. He seemed to think it should and offered a refund if it did not work.Thought I would throw it to the group as $$ is a bit tight for me at present, perhaps another stagea owner may like to try it.I am sure I, and most other stagea owners will want one if it is a goer!

cheers.

Scott.

ive got one in my 32gtr. got it like last week can say its excellent. you can really feel the difference using the torqe split function.. however u can switch from 4wd to 2wd while the car is on at a stop, but not the other way around for some reason..

but then again the 2wd switch only for 32 gtr so that should be cool for you guys!

G'day, My name is Justin and I am the seller of the units on eBay. What you are finding regarding the 2WD/4WD switch is normal operation for any ATTESA interceptor such as this. The latest version of instructions that come with the unit indicate that the switch position should be changed when the ignition is off for this reason (but yes you can switch to 2WD while moving).

Incidently, it has been mentioned(falsely) on this forum that the unit I sell is directly based on the Autospeed article. This is totally untrue as the unit on Autospeed is a terrible design and does not work properly. The unit I sell is professionally designed and manufactured. Of all the units sold everyone has been very happy with the unit and I have received only great feedback and testimonials.

Any questions are welcomed at [email protected]

i was on the understanding that you couldnt run the stagea in rwd only as would burn out front clutches or something like that

As it states in the eBay text the 2WD/4WD switch should only be used on R32 GTR's. This is because later ones leave some preload on the clutch packs that can burn them out if run in 2WD. It is not being sold on eBay as suitable for Stageas at the moment. The main functionality of the unit I sell is as a Torque Split Controller and this works well on all models of GTR and I expect Stagea's as well. The question posed to me through eBay was "would this unit work on a Stagea?". My answer was that as it has a similar 4WD system to the GTR I am pretty sure that it would work well but you would have to do further research yourself to confirm that both systems are similar. Of course the 2WD/4WD switch should not be used for the reasons above.

So the offer goes out to other Stagea owners also. I am happy to sell to a Stagea owner with the guarantee that if it does not work as described in the eBay advert I will happily refund the purchase price. I am 99% sure that it will be fine though.

To run your vehicle in 2WD mode, the transfer case will have to be bled and ATTESSA system disconnected electronically. For the R32 GTR, all we need to do is to remove the fuse, which electonically disables the system. Thus to be able to switch between 4WD and 2WD in your Stagea, we will need to modifiy your car by removing the line pressure valve in the 4WD system. The downside of this will be that the ATTESSA system will not react as fast as it should do, due to not having a constant line pressure going to the transfer case, and will react like the slower R32 GTR ATTESSA system.

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By Kapr · Posted

      Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler

      Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
