Hi all, Iam a new member to this forum and live all the way up north in Atherton ( 120 kms West of Cairns!). I own a R33 GTR V-spec and am keen to set up a system that allows rear wheel drive operation for dyno days we have up here (Only two wheel dynos are used!).

Competition is not that feirce and with a newly acquired Trust turbo set - up I think I can place well in the 6 Cyl category.

Problem is no - one can tell me how to do this! I know R33's dont have a quick fix solution (Fuse out like in R32s) and Iam dying to find out - can anyone help me! Thanks for all advice.

You need to remove the front driveshaft on R33, if you plan to run them on 2WD Dyno's..take about 10mins on a hoist. But I don't think it's so much a good idea if you plan to drive around without the fron shaft.. maybe ask SAU member "scotsman", as he's driven around woithout one for some time.

Are you the ones that owns the shell petrol station in atherton??

I was up in Atherton last year for around 6 months working on the Tinaroo Dam Power Station :D

On the R33 you must remove the front driveshaft, dont try and trick the ATTESSA system by not flowing power into the front wheels as this will build up hydraulic clutch pressure and result is a screwed up transfer case.

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.

      The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.

      Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?

      By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol

      No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
