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.

      I saw you mention this earlier and it raised a red flag, but I couldn't believe it was real. Yes, the vacuum signal should vary. It is the one and only load signal from the engine to the ECU, and it MUST vary. It is either not connected or is badly f**ked up in some way.

      @Haggerty you still haven't answered my question.  Many things you are saying do not make sense for someone who can tune, yet I would not expect someone who cannot tune to be playing with the things in the ECU that you are.  This process would be a lot quicker to figure out if we can remove user error from the equation.

      If as it's stalling, the fuel pressure rises, it's saying there's less vacuum in the intake manifold. This is pretty typical of an engine that is slowing down.   While typically is agree it sounds fuel related, it really sounds fuel/air mixture related. Since the whole system has been refurbished, including injectors, pump, etc, it's likely we've altered how well the system is delivering fuel. If someone before you has messed with the IACV because it needed fiddling with as the fuel system was dieing out, we need to readjust it back. Getting things back to factory spec everywhere, is what's going to help the entire system. So if it idles at 400rpm with no IACV, that needs raising. Getting factory air flow back to normal will help us get everything back in spec, and likely help chase down any other issues. Back on IACV, if the base idle (no IACV plugged in) is too far out, it's a lot harder for the ECU to control idle. The IACV duty cycle causes non linear variations in reality. When I've tuned the idle valves in the past, you need to keep it in a relatively narrow window on aftermarket ecus to stop them doing wild dances. It also means if your base idle is too low, the valve needs to open too much, and then the smallest % change ends up being a huge variation.

      I guess one thing that might be wrong is the manifold pressure.  It is a constant -5.9 and never moves even under 100% throttle and load.  I would expect it to atleast go to 0 correct?  It's doing this with the OEM MAP as well as the ECU vacuum sensor. When trying to tune the base map under load the crosshairs only climb vertically with RPM, but always in the -5.9 column.

      AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.
