Gents ,

can any one shed a little light on the most effective way of manually pumping up the clutch pack from in the cab and can one mount a guage to decipher as to how much lock up ones applying - eg 10% through to full.

I don't really need as a street car but more for drag situation.

We have been working on the electrical side of things and have hit a wall - so for now i would like to look at this option,

Another approach may be finding a way of manually stimulating the hydraulic pump via electrical switching .

Any thoughts or experience here.

I have started another thread in regard to simply attempting to trigger the Attessa to work with no ABS in place and have all but given up , we are so near as well.

Oh well lets have a look at this in the interim.

All input taken seriuosly and appreciated. :P

Ahhh....

I've just moved back to Oz and realised I've left a lot of GT-R info on my old computer overseas - including an article on how to set up a manual hydraulic transfer case lock-up!

I'll see if I can get the article back from old contacts, but from memory it is common in Japanese drag racing circles to use a manual hydraulic lever to pump up pressure in the ATESSA system to lock up the clutch packs. The pressure is held until you manually release the pressure via a solenoid controlled by a remote (and conveniently mounted) button which then converts back to rear wheel drive. An intermediate bleed valve can be inserted and adjusted so that the pressure is released slowly, thereby progressively releasing drive from the front axles. As it's an electronic solenoid releasing the pressure, there is no reason why this couldn't be activated automatically based on a signal from the vehicle speed.

Give me a day and I'll see what I can retrieve back.

Hi Gav ,

hows things ? As you would appreciate this has to be done properly . i have heard of a few chaps doing it very primitively and running into a few problems.

What you have described sounds logical, retrieving the info would be much appreciated. I shall wait .

Thanks for your effort Gav.

I had a problem installing powerfc to my enr33 -- the problem was locked e-ts clutch because of constant 4.5v at tps output pin @powerfc. So give e-ts control unit constant 4.5v at this pin and see if it helps.

Hi stronzo,

there is a little more behind mine than that , do quick search - exXU1 - and attessa, you will see where it's all at .

Thanks for the in put though and i am glad you got yours sorted relatively easy.

What - nobody out there knows ?? Thats surprising! :O

What about running a variable voltage controller on the hydraulic pump...just a thought.

just buy a HKS ETC-EDA it l do exactly what you want.

or buy an Apex'i manual pump lever.

easy

apexi dont make those anymore, tried to order one last year no good. ADVAN in silverwater make one but it doesnt look as nice. I am making one on a wilwood brake pedal and floor mounting it, but I still dont know if it will work how I hope.

Hi Daniel ,

how are you?

Alls good so far with the project - your plate worked fine .

Who are these people who make this , and or have you got your attessa manually operated - if so what is the best way- remember i have no abs and we cant seem to get working correctly - so i we would like to do in another fashion, either set up another electronic way or manually with gauge , any suggestion or links please?

thanks.

Don’t you guys feel like savages, operating the ATTESA in such a crude manor. Gone is the controlling of torque delivery to the front wheels in a nice progressive manor while exiting corners. Your using up all the spares, dragging em up strips :(

I have gone the HKS ETC+EDA route, but would be intersted in a manual controller.

Me too! I have had limited luck on attaining info in this area - i am interested in your set up Daniel - if it works of course, maybe if Next time and me order you to make one or get hold of some for us we could get at a reasonable cost. what's your thoughts?

Guys have a look at these, i think i am going to buy one - can't help my self ? http://www.ikeya-f.co.jp/en/car_type/bnr32.html

      I am yet to see anyone ever regret a quaife or helical. ...other than drifting/skidpan duties. I kind of want to upgrade my factory helical with a Quaife (but really it's not ultimately that different, and is a MASSIVE UNDERTAKING), that's how good the hype is about them, that I want to try them 'just to see'

      D2 and Ksport are essentially the same thing and basically just generic Taiwanese manufacture. Better than ChinaBay crap, but... not top shelf. Öhlins have got to be some of the best dampers around, so likely to be a good option. It's going to get to the point though where I suggest you buy from Oz. We have at least 2x excellent options here. If I were you though, I'd be talking to KW about doing something for the R33. There's bugger all difference between that and the 32. In GTR land, anyway.

      KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.

      Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.

      Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.
