I dunno if i was lucky or unlucky, but i got a gtst wth the slip and a-lsd. Can I just confirm, that the a-lsd is the same diff as the gtr? what is it exactly? It definitely does not feel like a mechanical diff because it doesn't lock like crazy.

Furthermore, i thought that slip was traction control. What is it meant to do? Because i can still do a burnout. The light comes on, but nothing changes. I have changed my suspensions. Is it meant to have anything to do with that?

I know for a fact that on the soarers, traction control has a wire running into the susp tower.

if it's raining and i give it a little too much gas, the wheels will spin. The slip light comes on when this happens. So does this mean that the a-lsd is letting the diff slip?

so slip is a function of that diff? not traction control is it? I thought it was like the traction controls that limit the torque to prevent wheel spin

my gts has it, its not a traction control as it doesnt cut engine power or apply brake when wheel spin ocours. it uses the hydraulic pump which u will find under the right hand rear of the car to send oil pressure to the diff to lock up clutches.

i only ever see thes lip light come on, the a-lsd light never does. So when it says slip, does that mean the diff is locked?furthermore, does the fluid ever hace to be changed? is it that bottle in the right hand side of the boot?

what is that fluiid btw, i've had mixed responses, some reckon it's hicas.

Heh. The HICAS in the R33 is electric so It cannot possibly be for that. The R32 had hydraulic HICAS.

    • Hi guys . Can someone help me  I bought an Android screen for my Nissan fuga but it won't turn on   
    • My guesstimate, with no real numbers to back it up, is it won't effect it greatly at all.its not a huge change in position, and I can't see the air flow changing from in turbulence that much based on distance, and what's in front of it. Johnny and Brad may have some more numbers to share from experience though.
    • Which solenoid? Why was it changed? Again, why was this done? ...well, these wear..but ultimately, why was it changed? Did you reset the idle voltage level after fitment? I'm just a tad confused ~ the flash code doesn't allude to these items being faulty, so in my mind the only reason to change these things, would be some drive-ability issue....and if that's the case, what was the problem? Those questions aside, check if the dropping resistor is OK ...should be 11~14 ohms (TCU doesn't throw a flash code for this) ~ also, these TCU designs have full time power (to keep fault code RAM alive), and I think that'll throw a logic code (as opposed to the 10 hardware codes), if that power is missing (or the ram has gone bad in the TCU, which you can check..but that's another story here perhaps).
    • Question for people who "know stuff" I am looking at doing the new intake like the one in the picture (the pictured is designed for the OEM TB and intake plenum), this design has the filter behind the front bar, but, the filter sits where the OEM duct heads into the front bar, and the standard aperture when the OEM ducting is removed allows the filter to pulled back out of the front bar into the engine bay for servicing, a simple blanking plate is used to seal the aperture behind the filter This will require a 45° silicone hose from the TB, like the alloy pipe that is currently there, to another 45° silicone hose to get a straight run to the aperture in the front bar Question: how will it effect the tune if I move the MAF about 100-150mm forward, the red is around where my MAF is currently, and the green would be where it would end up Like this This is the hole the filter goes through  Ends up like this LOL..Cheers    
    • Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.
