I have been running a switch on my r33 chuki for about 4 years or so with no problem , I run the switch through the 4wd fuse in the boot fuse box, just take the fuse out take it apart and replace the 2 standard spades inside for your own with wires attached ,stick an inline fuse in of the same rating and run the 2 wires to the centre consul and fit a switch,,if your in 4wd you can switch on the go ,takes a minute or so for the line pressure to drop then the 4wd light comes on and your in 2wd.

You still have to turn the ignition off and on to reactivate the 4wd.

I'm running a full 5 gear OSG cluster with strengthed input and excedy twin plate.

Has anyone used this controller? I need to put my 33 GTR into rwd for the drags, looked at the Full Race ones but they aren't for v-specs and the

Ruzic ones don't go to full rwd. This is the only other one I found so if anyone knows about them your help would be much appreciated.

Anyone can take a photo of this said "plug"? I am trying to locate it but theres too many!

In my S1 Stagea its behind the drivers side kick panel : a very small black plug taped to another loom with a single yellow wire with a green trace going to the plug and a single black wire going to the socket.

Hmm.... so you're saying the plug wire colour is different to the socket wire colour? WTF is Nissan thinking but if thats the case, shouldnt be too hard to trace.

I'll have a look for that and hopefully its the same for the 33 GTR in terms of the colours. Cheers.

Hi all

I'm trying to locate this plug but am unsure which one it is.

Is it the brown one attached in this picture.

Cheers

Most likely. Here's how I described mine when I saw it:

You will soon know when you disconnect it. If the car explodes in a ball of fire its the wrong one.

    • Lets say I wanted to buy this, specifically for this purpose. How do I actually perform the function. Can I still buy a Consult-1? Am I about to be burned by the fact my car is a 2000 model Series 2 R34 and thus will be some stupid other system? Do I just need this -> https://obd2australia.com.au/product/nissan-consult-14-pin-to-usb-ddl-diagnostic-interface-with-ftdi-ft232r-chip/ And with what software?
    • That's probably OK. That's a face to face compression joint between two surfaces with the clamping load provided by those bolts. So.... it's unlikely that the bolts will end up feeling that load in shear, unless the clamping surfaces are not large enough, bolts not got enough tension on them, etc etc to prevent the two faces from moving wrt each other. Which... I would hope the designers have considered, seeing as it's probably one of the most important things the upright has to do apart from resist collapsing in its own right. But yes, it would definitely be worth asking them what their safety factor on that part of the design was. I tend to think that the casting, being a casting, is not necessarily the strongest bit of material in the world. It's about an inch square, and when you think about the loads that are being put into it, you have to wonder what safety factor the Nissan boys (and every other OEM engineer who has designed all the millions of other uprights that look essentially the same) used to account for defective casting, aging, severe impacts on the wheel, etc etc. 
    • Those bolts would be orders of magnitude stronger that cast aluminium though.  And its mainly clamping force, not shear they are dealing with?
    • Except all that twisting force that is breaking a cast piece, appears to be going through 4 bolts in the picture Johnny posted of the BryPar one...
    • The smart approach is to use the gearbox loom from the manual car. Makes it a lot easier - just plugs into the switches on the box and plugs into the main loom up near the fusebox. Then you only need to deal with bypassing the inhibit switch. The other approach requires you to use the wiring diagram to identify those wires by colour and location, perhaps even indulging in a little multimeter action to trace them end to end to make sure, and then.... you will have the answers you need. The R34 wiring diagram is available on-line (no, I do not have a link to it myself - I would have to do a search if I wasn't able to go to the copy I have at home).
