Hi guys,

Im a newbie on this board and need a bit of advice/help on getting a problem sorted on my R34 here in the UK.

I recently had a load of engine work done including an engine overhaul, new turbos, oil pump etc and a new set of sexy Nismo clocks that i picked up cheap in Japan.

The car was all put back together by my tuner who is to be the best in the UK..... When i got the car back he mentioned that at first the Nismo clocks wouldnt work but fter some fidling around they were ok. Since the clocks have been working the 4WD, Airback and ABS lights have been going off. I have NO 4wd at thre mo with the MFD not reading any torque in the front wheels, no ABS as i found out on a wet day. All the fuses under the bonnet, in the drivers footwell and the few fuses in the boot have been checked and they seem to be fine. I knowthe Atessa ecus in the boot are getting power as they are war mafter a drive... SOmething that may have effected the car is the GRID Ts DAncer Torque splitter controller unit which is based in the boot and also has an inline fuse.....Appart from that i really dont know what the problem can be. Does anyone have a clue as im tired of going round a corner and coming out on opposite lock lol

Cheers

Gerry

Hmmmm, was this put in profesionally too? I would assume that this would be the cause of the problem, as I cant see the Nismo Dash causing any problems... :confused: . Its strange that this is all stopped working, but the fuses are intact.

Have you spoken to the w/shop that did the work?

Hi guys,

The Torque splitter unit was installed previously in Japan and was working fine so i dont see how its instaallation can be a problem. What im thinking is that on of the torque splitter fuses may have popped and caused a problem as its wired into the ecu.. OR it could me something else altogether....Im just worried that my mechanic has fried the Atessa ecu.....

Cheers

Well i have checked the Grids fuse and it seems ok. The unit was not set at all so it ruels out the fulltime rwd theory which i wisah was true..... Everything has been checked so it only leaves with one option, the Atessa ecu has been fried......Fingers x its not. What i need is the Nissan Consult monitor to see what fault code it comes up with so i at least know what i should be looking at.

Cheers

Gerry

    • Old Son, did you re-use the Holden ABS in the new shell or try a different module?
    • Yeah, nah. I had the actuator rod off it today. The arm will not move at all. Neither out, nor in. Yeah, you'd think so, but I've been thinking about that. Even when the actuator rod fell all the way off at the beginning of this saga, it would build more boost and faster in lower gears than it would in higher gears, and you'd think that that was the opposite of what should happen. But I strongly suspect that there is a thing with the gearing getting the revs to rise faster, that there must be some transient effect with the gas flow rate rising quickly, that you don't get with the more steady state case of the higher gears. Keep in mind - the gate is not shut in either of my weirdnesses. So things are not "normal". We normally think about a turbo spooling up (below the wastegate target) with the gate shut. I have all sorts of mental models running now where the gate is a little bit open, and having it stuck open allowing gas out while it should be going through the turbine has all sorts of weird effects (in these mental models). I'm thinking in the higher gears, the ex mani pressure builds to the point where enough gases spill out the wastegate to just prevent the pressure rising much more at all, or just creeping up, all the whole the revs are increasing and getting closer to the point where a gear shift becomes necessary.
    • Is it possibly wastegate actuator itself is sticking, or even the rod to flapper? Otherwise I reckon things are getting a bit rusty/worn   Also odd it won't boost in 3rd to 5th, but will in 1st, I'd expect the other way around with it slightly open as there's more time on your way to redline for it to spin up
    • Does anyone know ow what these two plugs are for and if they should be unplugged? Just put the dash back together and can't remember if these were plugged in before or unplugged! (Blue and white plugs) 🤦🏽‍♂️
    • Did some FASTing ...got the impression that the actual part# was a moot point ; seems all of these hardlines for coolant are discontinued/NLA... like, I take it you're after the hardline that bolts onto to the manifold...that's NLA according to amayama & nengun .... ...just to clear up some confusion, they typically mounted the AAC valve to the intake manifold somewhere near a coolant passage, so the body of the valve heats up & holds it open when engine's up to temp - no coolant flows through the valve, it's a mechanical, thermal connection.
