Got the car back today and engine light is now out. Auto sparky fitted a terminal to pin 51 and followed wiring diagram for diode and resistor placement. Cheers. Car is a 1997 S1 RS4 auto converted to manual using a power fc for a r34 gt-t for future reference.

Yep, mine is pretty much exactly the same: 1997 S1 RS-Four V converted to manual by the previous owner, then I had the R34 GTt PowerFC with "secret squirrel tweak" done.

Ah yeah, I do remember having issues with that, now that you mention it. The conversion was done a long time ago, so I can't remember (and don't actually remember being told) what was done to fix it.

I think when I had it done it was mid-summertime too, hence my requirement for working air-con.

Does anyone have the info on supplying tps signal to the attessa ecu to make the 4wd to work with the power fc? Mine has never worked since I've had the car. Have the pin 51 mod done and bled the 4wd system, pump primes and I'm not getting any lights in the dash.

I'm assuming it's the tps signal anyway

Heres some relevant info. You'll have to check whether the power fc outputs the voltage to the attesa.

If not then you may need to employ some electronics skills, ie, you could make a splitter for the TPS so it supplies voltage to both the power fc and attesa, however you would need a buffer circuit to ensure that there isnt a voltage drop caused by connecting the sensor to multiple devices.

Cheers. That's a good bit of info and helpful suggestion

Ok, so I have correct tps at attesa ecu. What's next? I can get the pump to run for approx 5 or so seconds with the bleed plug in the kick panel disconnected. However, it doesn't prime when ign is switched on. Could it be a faulty accumulator?

Great thread, just so that I'm in the the clear. I will be removing the NA engine and dropping a RB25NEO AWD from a Stagea into a R34GT-4.
I'm going to throw out he GT4 ecu and use a GTT ecu. To be able to retain the Attessa. I should split the TPS signal into two. One goes to the ECU and one goes to the ATTESSA.
I will be running a Link ECU is it any different to a Power FC in terms of the trick mentioned above?

Did you guys have to purchase a new wiring harness to be able to do this?

Pretty sure the Link goes into the GTT case - you may need an auxiliary loom for the IAT sensor and maybe the Map sensor

Yes it's a plug in ECU. I was worried if it is possible to do the same as covered here for the PFC. I have a map sensor and IAT ready. They connect on an XS loom.

    • Hi from Canada, Both of my calipers are starting to fail. My car is a 2005 M35 Stagea ARX and I can't seem to find any parts or any cross reference caliper that would fit my car. Is there a company or a similar caliper that would fit and I could replace the OEM one. Or if anyone knows where I can find a new OEM. Any help is very appreciated. Let me know!
    • Maf is a question mark but TPS  I have set at 0.47, the fact that I’m getting proper voltage range out of it with the key on leads me to believe it’s functioning properly. I’m getting proper voltages on basically everything. I still need to look up voltage ranges for z32 maf and test that 
    • Honestly no not at all, but it’s a very basic tune, it’s stock injectors q45 tps and z32 maf. Other than that it’s a completely stock base map. The file is from nistune and from my understanding if it was tune related I would be able to unplug maf and tps and it would still start even if it was a really shitty start. I have tried starting it with coolant temp, maf, and tps unplugged none of those 3 togethor or individually changes anything

    • What does it look like with highway driving? And yes, I had a similar thought as Duncan. It looks quite similar in my Stagea and I have made myself accept it as normal. Might have to look into it some day   Highway gets as low as 10l/100km on my end so I'm not as worried about it being a mechanical issue. More likely just the tune on the haltech.
