First off sorry if this the wrong section. A week ago in my R32 GTS4 the ABS light on the dash went on and stays on all the time now when in 4WD. When i flick the switch into 2WD the light goes off. The brakes work fine, no noise, no fade and then switch back to 4WD and the light goes on again. Does ABS only work in 4WD? Is there something wrong with the ABS system? I can't read Japanese to check the fuses. Anyone know what's going on? Thanks in advance. :confused:

The fuse is in the fuse block down by your right knee. In Japanese, ABS is "ABS". :D

The switch you have for engaging 2WD is not a factory item, so there is no telling what effect it has on the ABS light working or not working.

Think I remember when mine was coming on it needed the brake fluid filled?

No maybe it was the AWD reservoir in the back???

Damn that's the trouble with getting old.

Anyway check them all....

Great thing about the GTS4 is you know when one of your tyres are going down slowly as the AWD starts coming in all the time;-)

      From my youth: GTi-R clutch change is a massive pain. The gearboxes are fragile? But the car is super cool and I want one 😢

      Driveline vibration is resolved. I ended up loosening all my engine mount and trans mount bolts, giving it a good shake then retightening everything and it's gone... Let's just say I was surprised that fixed it.  I've been happily driving it around again but unfortunately put zero time into my direct port/constant pressure WMI setup. I'm on vacation next week, so I'll try and finalize it then.  On a different note, I spent all week fuel/ignition mapping 2x 216L V16 engines. Turbo's were burning glycol and we swapped them out for larger units. We also had planned emissions testing on site, so I figured I'd be there the same week to use their instrumentation and massage any emissions issues out if needed. This was a first for me. Fuel management is similar in certain ways to automotive (i.e air density as load variable) but very different in others. It's all PLC based and AFR's are controlled by air and not fuel. They use a control valve between the turbo and air manifold to control pressure which in turn controls AFR's. Due to this, target AFR tables supplied by the OEM are in pressures and not mass which really through me off. They use air pressure vs fuel pressure tables. I also relied on an O2 concentration sensor the emissions team had in the exhaust. Ignition timing was also all over the place and we were losing a fair bit of power. They're now happily sitting at 16-40BTDC depending on load. We were making about 1600kw at 900rpm at 90% load. Engines were running a lot smoother as well.

      Oil pan for RB25DET NEO Stagea "version"

      meh, it was a good video, clear about the issue and how he dealt with it. A bit heavy on the RTV and very brave to put an RB in anything without rebuilding it first, but otherwise I thought it was good Dose, I'm not sure that having the pickup forward is a big issue; yes of course the oil could shift under brakes but the sump should never be empty enough for that to be a problem (unless you also have a higher volume oil pump, and that oil can't return from the head to the sump quickly enough)
