See that search thingy in the top right-hand corner, next time try that first.

The 4wd system is the same type as r33/r34 gtr, meaning the only way to safely go into rwd is to remove the front driveshaft..........

How many times must this be disscussed, can people not find the search?

Hi i have a 1999 RS4 turbo 4 wheel drive and was wondering if anyone knew if by putting a switch in to the 4 wheel drive fuse and taking it from 4 to rear wheel drive CAN IT HAVE ANY DETREMENTAL EFFECTS ON THE CAR . COULD IT HARM THE CENTRE DIFF ?

Yes it can be harmful. Basically, the Stagea version of ATESSA is similar to the R33 and R34 Skylines and GT-Rs, so there isn't just a fuse you can pull, like in the R32 version.

There has already been plenty written about this, here's one pointer in the right direction: http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/in...howtopic=102172

noobs and their questions pfffft

LOL :D just what mother used to say

out of a matter of interest, say you did pop the fuse only and drive it into the ground, I think youd find a VERY expensive repair bill at the end of it. Same expense as rebuilding the engine................... I know what Id rather do

I looked at these and wondered: "WTF is he calling us all Steve for? Is this some sort of sarcasm?"

Then I realised you meant:

Thanks for the tip,

    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
    • The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
