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.

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!

      Hello, sorry for being late to join the discussion, but my clock just died on me.   Ive tried to look at Michaels digital clock repair.docx and it doesnt work maybe the file has expired.   Please let me know if you can re upload it or take some youtube videos to show us how to get the clock installed? thanks

      Strange issue RB25DET wont start

      By jtha7 · Posted

      Ps i found the below forum and it seems to be the same scenario Im dealing with. Going to check my ECU coolant temp wire tomorrow    From NICOclub forum: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Thu Apr 11, 2013 7:23 am I am completely lost on this. Car ran perfectly fine when I parked it at the end of the year. I took the engine out and painted the engine bay, and put a fuel cell with an inline walbro 255 instead of the in tank unit I had last year. After reinstalling everything, the engine floods when the fuel pump primes. if i pull the fuel pump fuse it'll start, and as soon as I put the fuse back in it starts running ridiculously rich. I checked the tps voltage, and its fine. Cleaned the maf as it had some dust from sitting on a shelf all winter, fuel pressure is correct while running, but wont fire until there is less than 5psi in the lines. The fuel lines are run correctly. I have found a few threads with the same problem but no actual explanation of what fixed it, the threads just ended. Any help would be appreciated.

I found the problem though. There was a break in one of the ecu coolant temp sensor wires. Once it was repaired it fired right up with no problems. I would have never thought a non working coolant temp sensor would have caused such an issue.

      Strange issue RB25DET wont start

      By jtha7 · Posted

      Hi sorry late reply I didnt get a chance to take any pics (my mechanics on the other side of the city) but the plugs were fouled from being too rich. I noticed the MAF wasn't genuine, so I replaced it with a genuine green label unit. I also swapped in a different ignitor, but the issue remains. I've narrowed it down a bit now: - If I unplug and reconnect the fuel lines and install fresh spark plugs, the car starts right up and runs perfectly. Took it around the block with no issues - As soon as I shut it off and try to restart, it won't start again - Fuel pressure while cranking is steady around 40 psi, injectors have good spray, return line is clear, and the FPR vacuum is working. It just seems like it's getting flooded after the first start I unplugged coolant sensors to see if its related to ECU flooding but that didnt make a difference. Im thinking its related to this because this issue only started happening after fixing coolant leaks and replacing the bottom part of the stock manifolds coolant pipe. My mechanic took off the inlet to get to get to do these repairs. My mechanics actually just an old mate who's retired now so ill be taking it to a different mechanic who i know has exp with RBs to see if they find anything. If you have any ideas please send em lll give it a try. Ive tried other things like swapping the injectors, fuel rail, different fuel pressure regs, different ignitor, spark plugs, comp test and MAF but the same issue persists.
