hey all, im new to this site & skylines

i recently bought a R33 GTS4 paid about 3500 for it.

i was just wondering is there a way to disable the attesa system?

and then simply just plug it in again?

or is this only the R32's?

any feedback would be greatly appreciated:)

thanks

you cannot just pull out a fuse like in the 32's. this is because their system was electrical and the 33's are hydrological.

You can drain the resovior in the boot but the safest thing to do is take out the front drive shaft.

BTW, how did you manage a 33 gts4 for 3.5k? is it damaged?

The caniser in the boot runs down to the actuator on the O\S\R of the car, it pumps fluids to the transfer case and when the slip light is activated it then runs too the rear diff and is pumped around there aswell, then back too the canister. It does this because it is a high pressured pump that activates clutch packs in the transfer case, this is how the attesa system works. Do not take the fluid out of the clutch packs with be distroid and you will have to spend a lot of money and all the parts with be EX jap.

The fluid is a ATF fluid, at nissan we sell nissan Matic D which is what they used stock.

You can take the front propeller shaft out but thats it.

how would i pull out the shafts? just pull them out

your only taking out the front shaft.

It is located under the car more towards the drivers side next to the gear box area.

there are four bolts that attach it to the car, they are in pricks of a position to get off...

the thing i do is, move one bolt at a time to the best position possible for you to reach by rolling the car, undo it and take it off, roll your car a little back or forward so the next bolt is in the same position and repeat.

when you get good at it, you can have it off in 10-15 mins if that....

As said before.

You can only disconnect the 4wd system in the R32's electronically.

In the 33 and 34 you must remove the front drive shaft.

This is the shaft from your transferbox (the thing hanging off the drivers side of the gearbox) going up to the front diff.

    • An update regarding the registration with the DVLA I sent off the paperwork the day after I collected the car from the port, two weeks later it was all returned with a letter explaining they have rejected the application. This was because the cheque was £20 short for the road tax (I used a price list I found online). Nevermind it is what it is, it was sent back to them the following day with a new cheque. Fast forward another 2 weeks or so, I called them for an update to be told it had been rejected. Yesterday (16th September) I received the documents back along with another letter, this time it was because I didn't put an X in one box on the V750 (personalised number plate certificate), which declared that I had the rights to the personalised number plate. Why this wasn't mentioned in the first rejection letter, I don't know, but it could have saved this headache. The documents were sent back today, so fingers crossed third times a charm and it'll FINALLY be registered on the road just in time for the bad weather (woohoo!) To cheer myself up I lowered the front 25mm, was sick of seeing it sit like a monster truck. No idea how much clearance I'll have getting on and off the driveway, I'll worry about that when I can actually drive it
    • You're going to miss not worrying about rust in the strut towers like the Skyline shitboxes out there
    • A few little updates that weren't filmed due to not taking long to do or not interesting enough for their own video. My new K&N Air Filter arrived, I went with an RU-4180 which matched the dimensions of the universal cone filter the car originally had.  The battery had gone flat, while that was charging I tidied up the spaghetti wiring at the bulk head and down the sides of the engine Next job was to swap the stereo The Kenwood harness had the female ISO plugs cut off and the male ISO plugs cut off the adaptor loom and joined with bullet connectors. I ordered in a repair loom through work and re-did it all. New Kenwood unit installed (Android Auto, DAB, Bluetooth, Reverse Camera) The bonnet/hood gas struts have been poor since collecting the car. I couldn't find any suitable replacements locally so took a chance on a pair from AliExpress.  The originals don't use a retaining clip to secure the cup onto the ball fixture, would explain why I struggled for 10-15mins trying to pry off the cups. The ball fixtures unscrew using a 12mm spanner, new ones are the same size. Sadly no photo of them fitted, you're not missing much lol The dished Momo steering wheel got replaced with my Momo Tuner, turns out I ordered counter sunk bolts for the horn trim ring (like they normally are for the steering wheel) instead of allen cap (flat seat)  A terrible photo of a Quaife style gear shift knob I've had stashed in my tool box for many years after purchasing the incorrect thread size (I can see a pattern emerging with ordering incorrect parts...) Also threw in a cup holder and a (empty) Boss Coffee can, because why not  
    • GT-R clearly the better choice! The 300 is certainly not insaly fast but has a decent amount of poke. Does a nice little drift around the corners with a decent amount of throttle. It's VERY predictable in a slide too.  Feels so progressive! People probably presume there's a 25 year old driving it based on my behaviour this week! 🤣
    • Yeah Jap import. Fairlady Z then! I'm a bit the same.  They've been on my radar for a fair while but then just impulsively decided to buy one!  Was going to just buy an NA and add turbos to it later but decided to save the f'ing around and just buy the turbo version.
