Yer mate, that sounds like its running in 2wd. Ive got a torque split controller in my GTS4 and those lights come on when i flick the switch to 2wd.

I would check the fuse box under the bonnet as there is a fuse there that controls the ATTESA. If it is removed or blown the abs and 4wd will come on.

I also suggest checking the fluid level for the transfer case which is located in the rear boot, right hand side behind the panaling. there is a reservoir tank there. This can also make the light come on but i only had the 4wd light come on from that.

Only other thing i can think of is the G/Force sensor under center console having a problem but i dont think it is that.

Let me know how you go...

Pulling the AWD fuse will put it into 2WD mode and those to lights will appear. Previous owner might have pulled the fuse for 2WD and never put it back in.

With the ignition on (i cant remember if the engine needs to be running or not), underneath one of those computers in the boot, is the ATTESSA computer, you will know it because a redlight will be flashing code(s) underneath. Get back to us on the codes and we can help translate to what they're indicating.

Here's the incabin fusebox (under steering wheel) translated and the location of the 4WD fuse:

    • Hi...a bit a "development" on the brakes. I spoke to the guys where i get brakes from...and they are saying that 296mm EBC are for R34 GT-T. I then went to their site: https://www.ebcbrakes.com/vehicle/uk-row/NISSAN/Skyline (R34)/ and search for my car(R34 GT 1998 - it has GTT brakes) and it show me this USR1229 number and they are rly 296mm rotors... So now iam rly confused... The rotors i have now on the car are 310mm asi shown... So where is the problem? Does the whole EBC got it wrong or my calipers are just...idk know what?  
    • Oh What the hell, I used to get a "are you sure you want to reply, this thread is XX months old" message. Maybe a software update remove that. My bad.
    • This is a recipe for disaster* Note: Disaster is relative. The thing that often gets lost in threads like this is what is considered acceptable poke and compromise between what one person considers 'good' looks and what someone else does. The quoted specs would sit absurdly outside the guards with the spacers mentioned and need  REALLY thin tyres and a LOT of camber AND rolling the guards to fit. Some people love this. Some people consider this a ruined car. One thing is for certain though, rolling the guards is pretty much mandatory for any 'good' fitment (of either variety). It is often the difference between any fitment remotely close to the guards. "Not to mention the rears were like a mm from hitting the coilovers." I have a question though - This spec is VERY close to what I was planning to buy relative to the inboard suspension - I have an offset measuring tool on the way to confirm it. When you say "like a mm" do you mean literally 1mm? Or 2mm? Cause that's enough clearance for me in the rear :p I actually found the more limiting factor ISNT the coilover but the actual suspension arms. Did you take a look at how close those were?
