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

    • Waaay ahead of ya....(evil laugh!!) Will show the fitment and spec details later when it isnt as rainy !
    • Thanks Dose.....    I appreciate it!!
    • I'll probably be putting the shit box back on the dyno again soon, I want to dial in the closed loop boost control properly. I'll have a camera facing the car/motor for fun too. Just note, there are essentially 3x 10AN inlets going into the catch can and 1x going back to the intake pipe. Most of the time the catch can "return" to the sump actually is the crank case breather, pushing air out.
    • I have the R3C with a Nismo slave and by no means does it behave like a stocker, it ain’t THAT bad. On take off just give a bit more throttle than you would say a coppermix and it’s fine. It will not slip though.   
    • Okay. Final round of testing done. Got a friend to hook up a fancy scanner to the car and we also ran some compression and leakdown tests, she is healthy.  The MAF was definitely the culprit. So for future reference anyone with similar issues that find this thread. I suggest the following steps, in order of affordability:   Check your spark plugs for any fouling, replace plugs if they are bad or re adjust the gaps making it narrower (0.8mm would be good). Check every coil's resistance with a multimeter. It can be done by probing the IB and G pins on the coil pack. Resistance should be around 1.4 (+/- 0.1) Ohms Check the MAF. If you have Nissan connect or a good scanner with the 14 adapter it should allow you to see the voltage on the MAF reading should be around 1.1 - 1.2V when car is idling. But if you don't, buy a new MAF from Amazon and test, then return it. (For instance, I got a Chinese one for $40 that was reporting 1.3v on idle). If you still have scanner, you can run tests on the injectors to see if they are working, just remember to unplug the fuel pump fuse/relay and have no pressure on the line. Then listen for the noises that the injectors make. Clean/replace injectors as needed. Once you find the issue and fix, order thousands of dollars worth of OEM parts to refresh unrelated things (Optional)   PS: Thanks to the absolute legends of this forum for the responses and help to someone that went a bit over their head.
