nismogirl,

maybe you have the new PFC version?? Does your alsd light even come on when you put it on ignition? if it doesnt, then it is likely that your light has been taken out, which is why u dont ever see the light come on?

if all is still ok, then you are just lucky!

Moanie,

no probs ;)

ah yes i know! everyone i know loves the car, the problem is i need to start up my business, as i dont work for anyone anymore (i like it that way too!), so i will be needing the funds to get things started. i will get another skyline again though, i just need the funds for other things right now.

..also...i think ive seen you and your car in a cruise or two in the past ;)

you don't neeeddd to sell it though!!! you can just leave it in the garage! start the engine once in awhile.. make sure shes all cool! and get a loan to get things started!!! selling the 'line is toooo much of a sacrifice!!!! ;)

hahha... really? which cruise? and which car was yours!? lol!!! sorry if we've met and i don't remember it! :)

Hi y'all - I B A Noob to this forum so be gentle!

Has anyone driven the standard LSD and the Active LSD? Is it worth hunting around for a car with the Active Diff ? (Currently scouring Melbourne for the "right" R33 GTS-T).

It sounds VERY much like a Power-FC problem to me. Do you have the manual for it? perhaps you could phone a couple of jap-tuning specialists and ask the hard questions. Computers in cars tend to get narky when they're not fed the signal they're expecting, and it doesn't take much to upset the apple cart ! ! :looney:

I think it was pretty much summed up on page 1

"The active LSD on some GTSs uses a signal from the ECU like the GTRs do and i don't think PFCs have this function but as of now the Wolf plugin dose.

A clever electronics person could modify the TPS signal to send the inverted signal to the ADCU."

if steve is correct and he probably is if wolf now do it , you need to send a modified tps signal to active lsd . the power fc wont feature this , just as it wont send signals required to the auto transmission computer in auto skylines .

i dont know why nismogirls alsd works with the powerfc , but it could be

a. her latest powerfc does support this

b. whoever installed the powerfc has sent the tps signal also

    • This looks great! Awesome to have the 5 speed with an LSD in this. The Recaro's look like SR2's or SR3's. It's a shame they've been retrimmed as they would have looked sweet in their original colours. I think I'd want my agent to be a little more up front and informative too. I've never imported but I reckon it would make me a little nervous, so the more info the better.
    • Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.
    • My dream is also to have a proper hoist, but I don't think it will ever happen. My quickjack is probably as close as I'll ever get, it really is very good though. 
    • Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno
    • Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.
