I have a 89 R32 GTS-T 4WD and i was woundering if anybody had the circuit diagram to do this modification, i want to have a switch to turn the front wheels off electronically as i please, (Drift :D) i have heard of it beening done before but it is so god damn hard to find a good manual on the electrical system (circuit diagrams) on the R32's, also in addition to that can any on recomend me to some one that can get or has got some good workshop manuals for Mechanical & Electrical Systems of an R32.

Thanks lots

Cut the power wire going to the ATESSA fuse. And instal a toggle switch in series with this circuit. Its located in the panel under the dash. You can also do it with the fuse in the panel located in the engine bay, but this will require you to switch the car off when you change modes. Paul...DIRTgarage.

Thanx Stacey that's what i thought when i saw the fuse on the fuse lid but you can never be to sure, lol ask twice, cut once i say.

I Just went and pulled out the 4WD 10Amp Fuse, and my HICAS and 4WD light came on, which should be correct, yes?

Is that the fuse you mean because i wasn't to sure about the ATESSA Fuse that you were talking about.. is it the same fuse as the 4WD fuse?

yea, i want to find out the good way of wiring it... Dr_drift has a mate with a GTS-T 4 that is coming to his workshop this weekend and he said that when the guy got it from japan it came with the switch.... so he is going to look into it for me :D

Hey Meep,

Pull the fuse block out and cut the thin cable going to the 4wd fuse. There is a Fat and thin one going into one side. Make sure you leave enough room to join your new cables.

This way you will only be disabling the 4wd with the switch.

I can take some photos tomorrow and pst them for you.

Well buddy there only seems to be one wire to the 4WD fuse some ummm... yea :spank:

i made a picture so you can see what i mean.

Hi Meep,

 

One question Does your car have ABS?

 

In the engine bay at the back right corner there should be a cylinder with alot of pipes going into it. If the this corner is empty you don't have ABS.

 

Not all gts4's have ABS.

yes i do indeed, now are you confused.....

cuz there seems to be alot of ppl looking at this thred but no one seems to know :P

Just a thought:

If you cant get that to turn off the 4wd without affecting the abs then find the resivior in the RHS of the boot behind a panel and there is a sensor on it to disable the 4wd system if the fluid is to low, hook up a switch to it and it will disable the 4wd without affecting the ABS, the only down side is the wires will have to run from the boot under the rear seat and under the carpet into the cabin. I havent done this yet, but in the mornings my car goes into 2wd mode because the resivior is a bit low atm.

Edit: the engine might need to be turned off and on to change between modes though.

    • The wiring diagram for the R33 RB25 is freely available, and is essentially the same same as most other RBs (just with differences as to which pin # does which job). To get the ECU to power up, you just need to provide power to the ECCS relay, and have the other power feeds that come in from the top left of the wiring diagram (wrt the ECU) that give perma power to the fuel pump relay, the ECU itself, etc etc, all connected. When you put power on all these it will just come to life. It's pretty clear from the diagram what needs to happen. Just follow the lines from the 12V + supply stuff in the top left over towards the ECU. I've even posted snips of such diagrams (not for vanilla 25, I think for Neo and 26) to various threads here in the last few months, talking about what it takes to get the fuel pump and FPCM up and going. Search these up and they will help get you started on doing the same with the vanilla 25 diagram. Hell, for all I know, I've done the same with that one in years past and have forgotten.
    • Yep...so unless someone posts up the answer you will need to probe from the ECU connector to the dash plug with a multi meter in continuity mode to trace the wires.  Note the ECU has multiple - and + (and across different key settings - Battery, IGN and Start) and most likely the power is fed from the connector(s) that is normally near the left hand headlight.
    • Thanks Duncan, I am actually just trying to get the Rb turning and running with the RB25DET S2 original loom itself  I am just trying to get it going outside the body and not thinking about the S15 or trying to match anything to the S15 loom at all I am only trying to see if anyone has done this and what pin they found to be the ignition trigger and ECU+/- on the dash connector, that's about it. Thanks  
    • Hi Guys, Does anyone know any aftermarket part numbers for a starter motor to suit the VQ25DET? I can find lots of alternative part number for the VQ35DE, which I assume would fit, but there is a lot of conflicting information out there. Thanks..
    • I don't understand how this hasn't boiled down to - Upgrade the turbo when you have everything required. ECU, injectors, fuel pump, turbo, etc. Do it all at once.  If you don't have everything required, just enjoy the car as it is and keep saving up your pennies.
