There is also another controller (that isn't listed in that thread). It's adjustable but 3 dials if memory serves me correct.

I had one although never installed it though as I acquired it not long before i sold the GTR. There is no branding on it or anything so not sure where it came from exactly, i should go and get it from my mates place.

Also interesting is the talk about the transfer case being there good gains are - and attending to that - seems they are catching on to what some have been doing for quite a long time where by some say the gains are 70% mechanical / 30% electronic.

Having driven a GTR weekend past without a stock transfer case vs my modded one (both 33R), the difference was utterly unbelievable. You'd think they were two different cars that's the level of difference between the two. Modded has so much more drive out of corners you feel like you are being pulled rather than pushed compared to unmodded where it feels like a GTR is very much still RWD until the system realises whats going on and tries to get the fronts working but once you are sideways/sliding it's too late anyway.

Regarding the transfer case mod, There was talk of this only being usefull if the case is buggered to begin with, I wil try find were i was reading but people were saying theres not much gain to be had if the case in in decent nick.

Still, I think it could always do with a freshen up, And the idea of a 4wd controller being able to set the load is great i think.

In other word, It could be set up to run like a full time 4wd, Though even then people have said that puts strain on the transfer case.

Did you have a 4WD controller on your GTR,  ?

If the transfer is in good working order, a good controller will do the same thing as the modded transfer by applying more torque to the front and you can control how much, so no RWD waiting for the fronts to kick in.however, ultimately the modded transfer can apply more torque than a standard one..obviously..So basically I'd just install a good controller, take your pick of brand and functions, and down the track if the box has to come out or the transfer is worn do the mods.

No controller at all in my car, never got around to putting the one I had in. It would've made difference I'm told, but obviously not as much as mechanically.

So just transfer case done, whatever that involves - I don't know exactly what Racepace do to it and as long as it works i don't care, but whatever it is the difference is really night/day

How much did this Mod cost? and what does it intail exactally?

basically its just squeezing an extra plate into the transfer, the transfer case is ( can't remember the exact number) about a 20 plate wet clutch system, and by shoe horning a plate or 2 extra in it obviously requires less pressure to lock up..

pretty sure all the parts ( including full set of new plates ) are about $600-$800 plus labour, so if you took the box out, I reckon around $1500..

that is my understanding from when I looked into it about a year ago, and actually pulled a transfer case apart,( still in pieces in the shed :wacko: ) might have a crack at it one day..

  • 1 year later...

Great info here. That Ruzic controller seems to do it all and I especially love the digital display.

My BNR32 is going to be 25 years old next year so I'm in the market to replace the old CPUs, G-sensors, etc.

Has anyone tried the Full-Race controller? According to the website, it completely replaces the stock G-sensor and Full-Race was gracious enough to say that their product is microprocessor based twice.

I like the idea of replacing my whole G-sensor and installing a TSC at the same time. Any insights on the product?
