Hi mate

I just got my R33 GTR about 3 days ago, and i noticed a couple of things, Coming from a GTST, I was woundering what the A-LSD light of the RPM gauge does??????

I also notice that when ever i take a hard corner that the front wheel torque split gauge moves and i can feel the front wheels grippin, is this normal??? The car only has 13950 km's on the speedo.

Next what does the little motor on the rear lower part of the car does??? The motor is across from the muffler.

Over all the car is way better that a gtst. I've always woundered if it's really worth the money and yes its more than worth the money. Does anyone know where i can find some info on how the 4WD system works on the GTR.

Thanks again mate.

Do you have log book for those k's?

The torque gauge tells you when the front wheels are being used. Seeing as its a rwd car with front wheel drive every now and then.

Alsd, is yours a vspec? I'm pretty sure it only comes on when it's broken. I've only seen mine on at acc and when I put it in rwd.

This motor you speak of, I have no idea.

Yes mate the motor looks like a little wiper motor. I was thinking that it may be for the A-LSD. Yes Nose LTD. sent me the log book for the car from what i can make out, the car had 2 owners in the pass the first took it to 8000 km's and the second to 12300, and now i took it to 13950km's I've been reading up on the 4wd system here on sau. I didn't know that i need to run the same rim and tyre size. Now what about the width if the wheels.?? Can i use like 11's ine the rear and 10's in the front, but all in the same size rims like 18's.

please if there is anything that i need to know about the car please do tell, and thanks agian mate.

mate you need to keep reading and searching on here, you will find all the info you need and more.....:thumbsup:

that little motor you speak of could be for your A-LSD of could be your ATTESSA pump ? and you can run different width tyres but they need to be the same rolling diameter, so it is easier to just run the same size rims and tyres all round ..

keep reading

and 13000km's on a 15 year old car :rofl2:

    • For these last 7 years of ownership, I've always had to use a small scissor jack under one of the front tow hooks to raise the front just enough so my low-profile jack fits under to reach my subframe jack point. I'm beginning to get annoyed of always having to do this. Are there any lower low-profile jacks that fit under the gtr lip on a dropped car?
    • Seat of the pants assessment of the new intake: The car is way less "doughy" when hitting the loud pedal, especially off idle when stopped or in traffic, I did use a cheapo lazer thermal thingo to measure the temp around where the pod filter got its air, it was between 55 - 60°C, in saying this the car was shut off and not moving, so the OEM intake pipe was not supplying any fresh air to where the pod was when the car was at least moving A weird bonus was induction noise on the throttle in the cabin increased a bit,  I was worried that I was actually going to lose some of that induction noise I love so much, outside though, when I got the daughter to do a WOT drive by pass for me, the induction noise has increased alot when on the throttle, not quite ITB doort, but well up there I'm extremely happy with the results and have been exploring the country roads in the region  As for house mods: 1.New front fence is up and is awesome, it really upgraded how the joint looks from the street, and the added security is nice 2. Electricians have replace some interior lights, and with more lighting in the garage, a few new motion detecting lights out the front above the garage, front room, and at the front door, which I have already found heaps helpful coming and going, also now has fancy pants CCTV all round the house The only hold point for power though is the solar and batteries due to supply issues, although this will happen over the next few weeks 3. I have done a heap of landscaping out the front and I'm almost ready to do a new small retaining wall with some nice blocks to replace the brick and cemented in rocks around the raised garden beds cemented in river stone "was the fashion at the time" the house was built. I currently have a pallet of retaining wall blocks and 2 bulka bags of 20mm blue metal to replace the wood chip that is in the raised garden beds around the house 4. I now have 3 big raised garden beds for out the back to grow some vegetables, about 70cm high, 200cm long and 100cm wide 5. My 2 compost bins are already pretty full with brown, green and kitchen waste from the landscaping I'vedone so far, but they will probably take a few months to break down, so anything else that gets chopped, trimmed, and kitchen waste will just start filling the base of the raised garden beds to about 30cm before I start throwing 40cm of good compost, and stuff, for the vegetables to grow in, I'll need a few ton of compost and soil, but the local supplier can sent me bulka bags of the stuff Basically the logs, wood chips and a few strategically placed rocks for drainage, will give the beds some good organic materials down low to break down over time, and they will hold moisture during the warmer months to save the water in my big arse water tank if we don't get alot of rain So, all in all, the car and house mods are going well, and I'm really enjoying being retired, I sleep in too 0700 and slowly plod around inside until I feel like actually doing anything, and only work in the yard for as long as want, which has actually been alot over the last few weeks,  although when you look at it, it seems that not a huge amount of work has been done,  until I look at the before I started the work pics Happy days and good times indeed 
    • hahaha yeah. Plan is to get side skirts and probably just rear pods. But going to do them one-by-one. I've got a set that I really like from RHDJapen, but that one isn't shipped to AU. So need to find someone who can get it for me
    • Here's an idea, answer the questions I asked you as they are trying to work out WHY the LSD will be binding up in a straight line.
