cheers mate much appreciated!

Had a great day at Wakefield yesterday, few hiccups though. Blew the intercooler pipes off in the first two sessions and the the return line off the catch can in the third, but still managed to not miss a session. Been having a look at hard pipe kits, is that the best solution for this issue?

Also, looks like we need a 1.5 way diff in the rear as the standard on is unloading and slipping, and the attessa system is doing f**k all, so i don't know where to begin with that. Would an ETS pro or midori g sensor fix the issues or would it be something mechanical? Not sure how to approach it.

anyway lots of fun, I'll get some photos and vids up shortly.

dyno sheet from race solutions. car is pulling hard and I'm really happy with it, can't recommend race solutions enough:

Heya JR,

RE: 4WD not functioning well.

Confirm your G-sensor hasn't been whacked (check bulb on unit)

Bleed the ATTESA and check fluid level in boot.

Change fluid in transfer case if it hasn't been done for a while.

If that doesn't help, let me know and we can dig deeper.

Mark :)

PS: I like the direction of your build.

Thanks for the reply Mark. The G sensor bulb is red, but i was hoping it wasn't completely rooted. I would've thought if it was stuffed it wouldn't work at all though.

Should I just replace with a digital one? They appear to be cheaper than the OEM ones.

I recently replaced all fluids in the car so that shouldn't be an issue either.

To be honest I've had this car for a few years now, and it's never felt like the front wheels were doing much of anything. It's hard to establish if the 4WD is working at it's capacity when I have nothing to benchmark against.

First of all I'd grab a mate, go for a thrash and get loose while your mate watches the "front torque" pressure gauge on the dash to see if it moves (a little or heaps. obviously the looser you get the more pressure the gauge should read)

If you're half confident with a multimeter you can check the g-sensor function yourself.

I've never used an aftermarket g-sensor so can't comment, sorry.

My 32R gets pretty sideways before it decides to throw some power to the front, makes for a fun drive.

In saying that, if I launch it hard I'll see the gauge move every time.

Mark :)

well it doesn't necessarily mean that....the "gauge" on the outside is just an indication it has taken a big hit, not a guarantee that it is farked.

But in this case...if you have a red sensor, and if fwd doesn't work....then it might be fair to guess it is dead ;)

yeah and no luck with the panasports. there's a guy in the forums who has a set of Manaray Sports which look exactly the same, but they are staggered sizes so no good for me.

still keeping an eye out though!

    • The fancy pants red shock tower brace is finally incoming from MX5 Mania, getting it shipped from 'Merica has been a long and problematic process, and GWR, the 'Merican supplier will not ship directly to consumers outside of the US, Mania basically had to order a heap of them, the colour choice was silver, or red, and we all know anything red adds 5 killerwasps of dynotorques..... Whilst it does fit over a 2.5, and I've seen a few photos and videos of it being installed and fitting, google also says it might get real close to the FAB9 intake front runner, people in the US says it does fit with the FAB9 intake, except for one person who said it slightly touched.......so there is that.....LOL..... As it seems that I am the first in AU to have this combination of parts there's no local knowledge about fitment, so I'm just a willing guinea pig in this endeavour, I'll cross my fingers and toes and hope for the best In other news, I ordered stuff from China  on the same day I ordered the 23° silicone bend from Victoria, the stuff from China arrived a day ago, the 23° silicone bend is still travelling around Australia thanks to Australia Post, and "may" be here next week
    • Very good news...I contacted Racebox about it last night. My car is a 2016 so remains to be seen if it is compatible, requires a TCU swap, or is impossible.
    • What ECU are you running? This is probably the biggest question. If it's a PowerFC, I'd probably change the ECU and get something newer that will handle the injectors in a nicer way.
