No exactly what the question is...

Doing a burnout? - Drive around the water, backup onto the pad and apply noise.

Isolating the front wheels? - How about one of the Dirtmans 2wd/4wd switch and harnesses...

The 33GTR attessa system if different and you can't just switch from 4wd to 2wd with a switch. You can use a torque split controller but this doesn't fully isolate the rear wheels and isn't good for the transfer case. The proper way to do it is to remove any pressure from the attessa system so that there is no transfer to the front wheels. examples of cars that do this is the heat treatments GTR and Godzilla Motorsports GTR that have a manual pump system to pressurize the transfer case.

There is some combo that you are meant to be able to do, to de-pressurise the transfer case for towing (can't remember it off the top of my head) but it would be a pain in the ass to do on the drag strip.

For an R33/R34 why don't you put in a 3 position solenoid valve in the pressure line that goes to the transfer case and flick a switch to divert all the oil back to the reservior... hence no pre-load? Or is it a mechanical pre-load some how?

To put the GTR into rear wheel drive is simple.

My R33 Service Manual states:-

There are 2 Methods to change the drive mode to 2WD setting.

1. Remove air evacuation connector, and depress the brake pedal 5 times within 10 seconds after placingthe ignition switch to ON posititon. At the same time the 4WD warning lamp will flash in the meter panel (twice in a second) to indicate it's in 2WD mode. To return the the vehicle drive mode to 4WD mode, place the ignition switch to OFF position and connect air evacuation connector.

2. Remove front propeller shaft.

Can anybody confirm this works??

shit seems like its all to complicated, was hoping for a quick fix way.

ill be doing heaps of passes on the day so hopefully they will warm up due to the mount of use they are getting but i know they wont be perfect.

and yes i do have a torque splitter and already new that the 2wd/4wd switch doesnt work for r33's

I haven't really looked into it, but something like that could work using a solenoid as I think it pressurizes it when you turn the ignition to acc. Maybe a switch could be rigged up to activate a solenoid to block the line to the transfer case before the car is turned on?

Yeah I would not block it just return it to the reservior, so the ATESSA ecu can do what ever it wants however the transfer case sees no oil hence does not engage 4WD. Not sure if it is that simple.

i can confirm that it works a treat used it on a dyno and for skids many times

    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go       
    • I don't get in here much anymore but I can help you with this.   The hole is a vent (air relief) for the brake proportioning valve, which is built into the master cylinder.    The bad news is that if brake fluid is leaking from that hole then it's getting past the proportioning valve seals.   The really bad news is that no spare parts are available for the proportioning valve either from Nissan or after market.     It's a bit of a PITA getting the proportioning valve out of the master cylinder body anyway but, fortunately, leaks from that area are rare in my experience. BTW, if those are copper (as such) brake lines you should get rid of them.    Bundy (steel) tube is a far better choice (and legal  in Australia - if that's where you are).
