Full-Race Ets-Pro Centre Diff Torque Split Controller Install Into R32 Gtr


Recommended Posts

Or maybe the wires to the control knob are crossed. See what it does when turned all the way to the right. Sounds like it's getting a crossed signal somewhere and system is being told give full pressure.

Ah yeah that's true too - I'll pull the whole lot out and have a look to make sure everything is attached correctly. I did it per the PDF in this thread but I could very easily have stuffed something up :)

front diff seems to be working overtime even when dialled back? When the car is cold and I reverse out of my driveway, the front of the car hops around a lot when I turn the wheel....almost feels like it wants to break something...didn't do that prior to installing the ETS Pro...I have a Nismo 1.5 way in the front.

more than likely everything is fine, but the 1.5way Nismo LSD is locking/unlocking to cause that vibration. Definitely a good idea to check wiring but I suspect its the clutches in your front lsd

sound exactly like the symptoms I had when TPS wires were wrong way round. If it does it when ETS is in RWD then I'd say it's mechanical.

hi, could you clarify what was wrong with the TPS? It is only a single output, 0-5V reference

Had a hyper tune intake with single throttle body. Replaced TPS but got wrong one. Was able to calibrate with motec but it was giving 5v at zero throttle and 0v WOT. When reversing it's the same as JH32 explained.

But tight diff is logical. Especially the Nismo. I had 1.5 Nismo in the rear and was tight as f###

If I disable the ETS Pro though by "flicking the switch" to get into RWD, the shudder goes away.... I will try as tricstar mentioned anyhow once it's all up and running again and report back :)

the ETS-Pro maintains a low duty cycle and never fully opens/disconnects the clutchpacks, to keep 4wd response instantaneous. when you switch to RWD it goes to 0 duty and the clutchpack is fully open, there is no load on the diff.

I was talking to a mate last night about how tunable the ETS - pro is and it reminded me of something. My gtr had an OS giken 2 way in the front and when I first installed the ETS-pro I had the same problem. So I down loaded the software and plugged the unit into my laptop and reduced the preload, problem solved.

I'm surprised that wasn't your first suggestion Geoff?

So I'd try that before pulling it all out.

Hi Geoff,

so in rear wheel drive mode the solenoid has 0% applied and at full locked up is set is at 100% .

Just curious as I was looking at making a LSD display to indicate the split load rear to front

EG :: 70% REAR, 30% FRONT.

More accurate for the end user rather than having the back light dim and brighten as an indication as to where you maybe set at when the adjustment changed.

Regards

Dave.

Hi all,

does anyone have this software you can send me please.

My email is [email protected]

I am running a Windows 7 OS laptop that I use for tuning only,

This has Windows 7 - 64 bit.

I have tried downloading the software over and over and I keep getting the following error.

I would very much appreciate if someone can pass on the download.

I forgot to mention I have loaded the USB software and works fine.

Kind

Regards

Dave.

Hi Dave, the correct way to do this is to read xfer Pressure (0-238psi) - Installing the pickup at the back of the transmission is not too hard to do, and ive seen an adaptor posted online for this:

from the electrical engineers, please let me know if this works for you:

"I recommend to download from this link (V1.1):

http://dccdpro.com/main/wp-content/downloads/DCCDPro.rar

Then extract the two files and keep them in one folder. run the .exe and if Windows 7 or 8 need to run in compatibility mode.

If they use this link(V1.2):

http://dccdpro.com/main/wp-content/downloads/DCCDPro.exe

Run the .exe and if Windows 7 or 8 need to run in compatibility mode.

I have checked and all are in good shape.

the ETS-Pro maintains a low duty cycle and never fully opens/disconnects the clutchpacks, to keep 4wd response instantaneous. when you switch to RWD it goes to 0 duty and the clutchpack is fully open, there is no load on the diff.

Does this mean the clutch packs are always slipping and does this accelerate wear appreciably?

^^No. If you look at R33 and R34 oem the system will do this. The result is no lag in torque split response. Compared to R32 where the oem computer is very old and outdated, very slow response times due to the pressure dropping off too far. If you have a very high power application and are concerned about xfer case, it is a good idea to install a cooler and/or consider adding an 11th plate/disc to the wet clutch

Edited by Full-Race Geoff

Thanks Gary, I do indeed have an R32 so hence very interested in the system. Was just concerned that - particularly in the case of the 32 - making a system that has x duty then run constantly at x+1 will break or wear something exponentially.

Power levels not withstanding, from what you're saying can I take it that this won't be an issue?

hi Jimmy, depending on your location - Galvsport has done right by my customers: http://www.galvsport.com/ Try speaking with Josh, they are great to work with

Hi Geoff

 

I am really keen on installing one of these.  Is it best to purchase from full race website direct?  

Any workshop in Victoria you know who is experienced in installing the system and check to make sure it operates as intended

Thanks

Matt

Edited by tangomatt

hi matt, you can purchase directly from our website or you can call our office.  Im not sure who to recommend for install in victoria.  I will ask a few contacts.  feel free to email me directly at [email protected] with any other questions

    • Even more fun, leave all the ADAS stuff plugged in, but in different locations, hopefully avoid any codes!   And honestly, all these new cars with their weird electronics. Pull all the electronics out Duncan, and just shove an aftermarket ECU and if needed a trans controller in, along with a PDM. Make it run basic but race car styled!
    • To follow up a question from earlier too since I had the front bar off again (fking!) This is what is between the bumper and the drivers side wheel And this is the navigator side, only one thing but its a biggy! So basically....no putting coolers in the wheel arches without a lot of moving other stuff. Assuming I move to properly race prepping this car I'll take that job on and see how the computers respond to removing a whole bunch of ADAS modules
    • So I prepped the car for another track day on Wednesday (will be interesting to see coolant temps post flushing out and the larger reservoir, with a forecast of 3-14 being 20o cooler than last time I took it out). Couple of things to mention; since I am just driving the car and not taking a support vehicle, I took the rear seats out and just loaded the back up Team Trackday style. Look at all that space! To cover off removing the rear seat....it is weird (note the hybrid is probably different because it wouldn't have folding rear seats) Basically, you remove the lower seat base, very similar to a r series but it is a clip that pulls forward to release the base rather than it being bolted down. Easy Then, you need to remove the side section of the rear seat on each side. There is a 14mm head nut at the bottom of the side piece, the it slides upwards off a hook at the top to release; you also need to unhook the seatbelt from the loop at the top. Then the centre piece is weird. You need to release/fold the seats forward with the tab in the boot on each side From there, there are 2,x12mm headed bolts holding the rear of each seat to the folding bracket, under the trim between the rear seat and the boot (4x christmas tree clips there, they suck). The seat is out but you can see where the bolts attach to the bracket
    • As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year. 
    • I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
