G'Day,

I want to remove the ABS off my GTR. I assume I use a GTS-T master and run some new lines, but what happens to the attesa system, as it uses the ABS sensors. Will unplugging the abs unit interfere with the 4wd?

What makes you say that?

The ATTESSA unit has a number of inputs/outputs that also affect the ABS operation. So if you deactivate the ATTESSA system you render the ABS useless as well as the 4WD system. But this is not the same as saying you can/can't remove the ABS without upsetting the ATTESSA system.

Secondly, why would you want to revert to a GTS-T master cylinder? It is too small in bore size.

My mistake, looked through the manual and it seems that losing any of the abs actuators / motor relay / or circuit will just disable the abs not 4wd, as you said. I was thinking along the lines of the hicas where one thing kills the lot in that module.

A question for you as well,

What is the bore size of gtst and gtr master cylinders? I have 32'R brakes and I am unsure of the master cylinder matching, brakes are horrendous though..

Secondly, why would you want to revert to a GTS-T master cylinder? It is too small in bore size.

I thought the GTST and GTR Caliper's had the same size pistons, therefore, I thought I would use a GTST non ABS master cylinder with the three outlets. Is this not the way to go? What is the way to go?

Has anyone disconnected their ABS unit and done a launch to see if all 4 spin? I would but my engine is broken.

Model Type Master Cylinder Diameter

S15 Spec R BM50 25.4mm

300zx turbo BM50/57 25.4 and 26.9mm used

R32 GT-T M-spec BM50 25.4mm

R33 GTST BM44 23.8mm

R32 GTR non Brembo BM50 25.4mm

R34 GTT ? ?

R32/33/34 Brembo* BM57 26.9mm

* GTR N1 Skylines apparently used the BM50 MC.

also this might be interesting, someone else chasing a 3-port 1" master cylinder.. http://www.sillbeer.com/2007/04/brake-mast...er-upgrade.html

But looking here http://www.ipixel.com.au/temp/bnr32n1bmc/bmc-46010-range.gif there is whole slew of different models used.

Looking at the bmc from the drivers side the model is towards the booster right next to where it says nissan. Last digits of the part number are stamped on the very end of the unit, for example mine are 05u20, ie 1".

So the non M spec R32 GTS-T has what size master cylinder?

    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
    • Well they got my money but they are not getting my gearbox ! 
    • It's needed for rolling idle up, and I think it is a decider on VCT also.
    • I mean, not really. Link ECU's can absolutely still have errors from the ECU thinking it's getting a sensor it's not expecting. I would imagine the speed at the ECU level in Nistune does absolutely nothing anyway? I assume the ECU does not do any fancy TC stuff with regards to front+rear wheel speed or anything of that like anyway. Someone who uses Nistune may be more fluent in it.
