ok guys so just had an Autronic SM4 fitted in my 32 GTR and have found 4wd light is on and always in RWD mode, (dont get me wrong this is fun but not why i wanted a GTR)

so i have checked the attessa computer and i am getting 21 flashes which if im correct is the throttle sensor or circuit.

Can anyone tell me if this is a mechanical fix problem or is it somthing in the autronic??

thanks you Lee

I had the same drama when I fitted a Wolf to my GTS4. The (factory) ECU passes a throttle signal through to the ATTESSA computer.

Advanced Engine Management (makers of Wolf) have a "black box" solution. Maybe Autronic has something similar.

hey guys :)

ets: 4wd control unit right?

ems: engine management/control system?

ok ok im unsure about all the uhm, technical terms but hope you get it anyways... :P

Have installed a new ems in a friends r32gtr. Engine runs fine but we havent worked out all details in the atessa vs ems. Vill splice the tps signal(?) back to the ets, but what about the rpm signals that schematics show goes from ems to ets? Are they relevant for getting 4wd working or just tells ets that engine is running and 4wd can be engaged. Problem with this is dont know what sort of signal the ets wants when recognizing engine rpm, or maybe a positive 5v feed is enough to just say, hey engine running... with a rpm based signal it gets more tricky since we dont know what frequency it likes to listen to...

well just some of my projects right now trying to get this r32 sliding in the snow here with all 4 wheels spinning like crazy...

later on my r33 gtr will get the same treatment, would that be about the same as this? (4wd stuff vs new ems)

so i will try to get back with some info on this later...

ok so this works fine. just plug in tps signal to ets and its back in 4wd! :D

(might need a grounding wire also shown in eccs section in manual)

might need a slight recalibration on tps to get it just right... (adjust tps unit postition on throttle bracket)

dont know if i missed something, but rpm signal to ets seems to have no effect on anything important... guess ill just skip it for now.

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
