I've recently bled the system.

starting at the pump above the rear diff untill fluid came out, closing that and then moving onto the bleed nipple at the transfer case. on and of and on and off untill i had the right levels in the res and untill no air came out. which not much did anyway.

now when driving/under slight acceleration there is always about 1-3kg m or whatever the reading is. it will only go to 0 when i back off completly

is this how the system is ment to work? it feels a bit better than before. and alot more responsive..

:/

i get about that under medium accel (in a straight line)

slight (just on pedal) accel i get 0 (in a straight line)

cornering tends to bring it back down to 0 until i lose traction (in rear)

hope that explains it a little

ahh thanks. it appears i have bled it alrite then!

slight on pedal i am at around 3 in straight line

:P

ahh, i just got new wheels. same size front/back but different tyres. the rears are a bit worn!

Thats your problem. Try switching the fronts to the rear and vice versa. Should resolve your issue.

Cheers,

Dan :P

I found the exact same thing when I swapped out the rear tyres last wk- as little as 3mm less rear diameter is enough to trigger the ATESSA. Like Angus I'm showing around 1-3-5Kg/m on normal driving & the car responds fantastically when thrown aggressively into corners etc but I am concerned as to what this is doing to the 4WD clutches in the transfer case.

Does anyone have definite knowledge on whether this is damaging or not??

this is exactly my concern and question!

how good and how responive is the system now!! i'm really enjoing driving the car! this is going from using A048's all the time so i am noticing how the system actually works!

worn tyres that affect rolling diameter will indeed affect attessa , 3-5 mm is enough to cause problems

but all gtrs will throw some torque to the fronts under hard straight line acceleration

if it happens under slight acceleration/cruising then your rolling diameter is the 1st thing to look at

Yeah we know WHY it's doing it, we're both concerned as to what the consequences are.

It really has transformed the way the car drives, & def in a good way but if it's going to be at the expense of the transfer-case clutches then it's obviously not such a good thing.....

yeah rolling diameter :D.....i dont know if it was the cause of a seal on my front diff (right side)to go as the result of having slightly smaller rolling diameter tyre on the rear, and having the above mentioned symptoms??? A bit of a s#^$ to do when done at home on stands. I do have one of the controllers from Duncan..so

does anyone know if having the controller switched to constant RWD only all the time when driving, would it affect anything???I know GTR run in RWD until attessa detects wheel spin in the rear.

But my logic was if i didnt have the attessa working (constant RWD) the leak in the diff wouldnt be as bad, until i got the seal done.

Would anyone else be having the same problem??

I can't see how running in RWD only will help. The power transfer is done at the gearbox & the drive shafts, prop shaft & front diff centre are always rotating when the vehicle is motion, whether there is torque being put to them or not

As for R32/33 transfer cases, I believe they are the same animal but the ACTIVATION is different between the two. The ATESSA computer in the R33 also processes information 4x faster & the combination of the two is why the R32 is in most cases a more "tail-happy" car to drive compared to 33's & 34's.

I'm going to pull the fuse untill further notice about this! but i am loving how the car is driving at the moment.

i've tried to use my field torque controler with knobs turned all the way to rear as possible but it has no effect.

Wow, this is the first time i've ever driven the car without semi's and the system disabled.

4th gear, 80km/h (freeway onramp) around 3000 rpm. plant foot. wait till about 4000ish and i get some serious wheel spin at around 90-100kmh hahaha

    • 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.
    • There's not a great deal to report here .... except ...... FOR .... LSD!!!  I bought a Quaife LSD from the UK and shipped it here .... Wish I'd just bought locally cause the shipping and duty was $700! But there were so many diffs used in the E90s I just wanted to be absolutely certain I was getting the right one so I spoke with a supplier in the UK who builds race cars and they have heaps of experience with the E90s.  I pulled the diff out which was seriously awesome - I've never done anything like that before, I must have watched 1000 videos on YT about it as well as consulting the Bentley manual. It was super easy in the end. The diff was delivered to the awesome folks at Hornsby Diffs and will be back in a few weeks. I also replaced the diff bushings with some Nolathane ones.  Really looking forward to getting it back and getting back to the track or even the skidpan.
    • yeah... the 13kg/mm springs weren't always in there, I had 10kg/mm but doing a few SMSP commanded heavier front springs. It's so good now going into T1 and T2, just need more seat time and real tyres.
    • Yes, well. Mine are less than half that. ARBs are not set to "dumb" either.
    • I would hope. But, we all know even the best companies have an issue sporadically.
