Yea thats right wrxkilla. The unit will help you tune out the corner exit oversteer under power.

The exit corner speed of our car coming onto the straight was apparantly one of the best at superlap on the weekend.

Curious, does this unit solve or help solve the issue of the early versions of ATTESA being a bit slow to engage.

I find sometimes I get on the power early in a lowish speed corner, when exiting I lose traction :(

Doing a few hill climbs and comming out in 2nd gear, I put the power down and the rears just spin up. Exit so slow T_T

In short YES

There are 5 available maps with Paul's controller.

Each map modifies the lat sensor signal. Map 1 has the same characteristics as the the original signal. The other maps produce earlier or later responses.

The gain on all 5 maps are tunable. One out of 2 maps can be selected by a toggle switch. There are so many tuning points

For the amount of power I try to put down around the circuit, my car normally goes sideway if I put my foot down to early around the corner. This usually costs time. I managed to distract Paul from his busy schedule of organising the Nissan Anual Track meet, secure a unit and hook it up before the track day. With so much things to do with the car before the track day I did not get a chance to test this unit at all. I had a quick flick through the manual and left it on Map 2 with a toggle on for Map 1. The track condition was dam on the day. There were water puddle, dirt and mud on the track at most places. My RE55 were also worn to the indicators. Despite all of that, I had even less sideway movement than before, was able to get on the gas earlier and was able to do a few 4wd power slide. I had very little test time with the unit and came first in the GTR class and also fastest Nissan of the day. I am confident that with a few more tweaks it will be awesome. As others said, this unit should be standard on the GTR ;)

Thanks for all your help and for producing an awesome product Paul.

I have another question (or suggestion) Paul :P

With the current firmware, can you set the toggle switch to the same Map with different gain levels eg Toggle on Map 1 of 10 and Toggle OFF with Map1 of 80?

guys, this is an absolute no-brainer.

if you have a gtr and you do any kind of serious driving with it, you need to buy one of these.

i bought one early in my gtr days, and it was in all sincerity a better performance upgrade than the $2000 suspension. the difference is noticeable immediately, and as soon as there is any driving condition where grip is compromised you can dial in exactly what you want the car to do.

and even better, its designed and built by a qld SAU member.

Thanks for all the great feedback on the unit. Its good to hear of successes of customers. Especially when they also attend my track days. Congrats on the double win 9krpm at the Nissan Meeting.

Also yes you can set both toggle switch settings to the same map with different gains. Just select the toggle position, select the map and gain, then put the toggle in the other position and do the same.

I can't wait until you have had a chance to do some serious testing as I'm sure your laptimes will improve even more !!

    • Yeah, plenty of air flow, there is a dedicated path that feeds the air in to the OEM intake tube behind the bumper As for a "tangible effect", maybe, but getting the pod/intake air out of the hot engine bay is worth it psychologically to me, even if it gives no performance difference, so the tangible effect in my Lizard brain saysss yessss  In the end, to me a tangible effect isn't always about performance, sometimes it a sound or a look, or even a...... feeling  Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga
    • yeah first and reverse is where you will find clutch release issues (whether hydraulic or mechanical) because the difference in revs required is the highest there; particularly changing down from 2nd to 1st when still moving. To be clearer though, it is possible that the clutch release bearing is the wrong height. This is less likely than a hydraulic issue but it is not unheard of when you are mixing and matching
    • Quite right, if you make it to that pension you deserve every cent
    • Hi all, Restoring r33 series 1 rb25det. All the heater hoses were on their way out, have replaced them and put it all back together. After testing I noticed a small leak from behind the head on the actual metal water line to the turbo when cars warm. I tried running a longer hose over it but it kept leaking...   I am about to take the (stock) manifold off again😔 to change the water line does any one have any lines they recommend? I was looking at Aeroflow Turbo Oil & Water Line Set but not sure what everyone else recommends. Car is completely stock but want to upgrade turbo eventually. it looks like ill have to disconnect a lot just to replace these lines so if there's anything else recommended to do please let me know. Thank you in advance!
    • From memory, on the R33 GTSt at least, while everyone says "It's not adjustable", I found when I changed clutches in mine, it just needed a small adjustment on the rod length. But be very wary here, as you could end up trying to push the pushrod in the master too far, or blowing out the slave.   Most likely though, if the master/slave isn't bypassing internally or leaking out, then the throw out is the wrong height compared to the fingers on the clutch, so when it moves to disengage the clutch, it isn't 100% disengaged. You can check part of this out too by jacking the car up, having the engine running, put your foot on the clutch and try to engage 1st gear. If it goes in pretty easy (Compared to the ground) and/or the wheels start turning a fair bit and it takes a bit too much brake pedal to bring them back to a stop, this is likely the issue.  I'm not sure if you can adjust the height of the forks etc in these though, it's been that long since I've touched any RB gearbox.
