The radio itself still works fine....what we do is use the switches on the dash near the steering wheel for the controller instead, so they no longer control the radio.

But you always have the option of a seperate switch and keeping the dash radio controls for the radio....if you ever use them :)

Just wanted to say thanks Duncan with the install and Mark for making the unit.

Finally had a chance to play with it and definately makes a difference and just have to work out the setting best suited for me. Good work guys.

Hi Andrew, I've just emailed the details across to you :)

For everyone else interested, there are currently 3 available so we can get them sent out pretty much straight away D:

Hi, I'm interested. I would like to fit one to a R32 gtr. Please contact me

Thanks

I saw what the extra plates in the centre do on Snowies car, and while good for track, not good for tight stuff so this is a better solution for all 'round. I'll grab one after I recover from surgery in a month or so. No sense depriving the needy when I can barely drive :)

Actually I'm pretty sure that R32GTS4 is the first to try one on a gts4, but I am 99.9999% sure it will be fine as it uses the same system.

There is 1 available from the current batch or you can see how he goes and grab one later :cheers: You will love it :)

Just a quick update to the manual for everyone that has bought one of these.

There are actually 2 RWD modes on the controller, not one as the manual states.

1) Hold the down button down for 5 sec and it goes into "almost-rwd". There will be basically no front torque except under extreme conditions, but your ABS will still work and there will be no ATESSA warning light

2) Hold the up button for 5 sec to put the car in full RWD mode, this will also stop ABS working and the ATESSA light comes on, but there will be no front torque at all. This mode is the same as pulling the 4wd fuse.

Hey Geoff yes all the RWD only mode will work on all ATESSA systems....but it doesn't change how the 33 and 34 systems work and so you might damage them using the RWD only mode. So my recommendation is only use the RWD mode in a 32....unless someone wants to test it out for me lol

It could be ok given the clutch pack nature of the transmission system. My take is the 33/34s have more preload initially but don't know if that is electronically controlled or a physical relationship. Certainly some of the Jap controllers allow for full RWD on these models unless I've crossed some lines somewhere.

    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
    • The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
