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.

      If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      By Duncan · Posted

      Before I get to the test day, just to finish off the android head unit. This is a demo from car start up....the standard/host system takes a few seconds to boot (same as all v37) but Android comes up quickly. In this vid I'm using the delivered launcher but have set the default to Agami since which is easier to navigate when if use primarily 5 apps. You can see the host system still takes over when required eg putting it in reverse, and you can switch between Android and not by holding the back button 3 sec. It is pretty responsive (fast) but you can see I had to press harder than expected a couple of times.  I still have the phone connected to the stock system, and that also seamlessly takes over Android music playing. v37-android-demo.mp4 The bigger reason that I put this in though is so that I can use Ecutek directly on the head unit. That gives me a dash with logging (up to 20MB only), high and low value warnings on any parameter etc etc. I've run a USB cable from the Ecutek OBD dongle to a USB input on the unit, easy. v37-ecutek-demo.mp4   The unit did freeze on the launcher the other day, I think Agami was trying to verify the license when it didn't have a data connection...will monitor and report back if there are any other problems but so far I'm very happy with the upgrade.
