Yeah, for motokhana applications the ability to have a quick stab of zero (or absolute minimum) front torque to bring the back around is a tops idea.

If you look at the Evos when they turn around cones, they almost pivot. I know that some of them have the Motec centre diff controller and they can do similar things.

You would want two buttons. On for Maximum and one for minimum front torque.

oh, and if you need a car to try it one, we have a couple!

sorry Bass these 3 are spoken for, I can put you in first for the next batch if you want...but at this stage the next batch won't have the mods for min and max torque, the guy that makes them is tight for time atm...so let me know if you would rather wait for the updated version

I need a t/s contoller and have been toying around with the same idea of running a more rwd at first at motohkanas to stop the car bogging down and also to reduce the understeer. Will save slipping the clutch to get going. A bad habit that comes from the 2stroke motorbike days. It would take a little to get used to as you have to correct the wheel to oversteer really quickly when this happens in gtr's.

If you were smart enough it could be plumbed into the steering sensor so when the wheels where close to where the car understeers it would reduce the torque split?

Hi Duncan, put me on the list for one od these once they are available again.

Cheers

Yup, same goes for me too please Duncan.

Got any ETA's at this point?

"If you were smart enough it could be plumbed into the steering sensor so when the wheels where close to where the car understeers it would reduce the torque split?"

The attesa does that for you, the g sensors going foward and back are more sensitive, the more g force the higher the wattage signal goes to the computer resulting in more fwd. However the g sensors going from left to right reduce the wattage going to the computer as the g reading goes up, ie it becomes less sensitive the harder you corner so the gtr doesn't have the same 4wd characteristics as an evo or wrx/understeer.

This unit doesn't take "control" of the ets as such like the other units available. Its more of an electrical current amplifier? (spelling) to increase the sensitivity and performance of the existing unit, not to outright manipulate it, the higher the setting, the higher the electrical signal making the 4wd more reactive, correct?

Its an amazing idea as the system thats in place is perfect for the car, but not as reactive as I would have hoped for so this mod would be great for fixing the standard system.

With that said, put me down for one. Please pm me with more details if there are any.

Cheers, Nick.

Waiting list:

Anyone else interested please post up I will allocate them in this order....will contact you for payment details when they are ready.

Yes that is the basic principle, but the output of the controller is not linear like simpler ones, this is controlled/programmed by a chip onboard instead

BTW Mark I have the controller back from Nathan, will drop it by next time I'm in the area

Im in. Contact me for payment details ASAP please.

I was so disappointed in the GTR AWD system when I took it for a hard run over the mountains, not enough FWD at all.

From what I understand, this system doesnt lock it into say a 70/30 split or a 5050 split, it meerly makes the stock system work better, eg, when you corner, it puts more power to the front wheels, what you control is how much more, correct?

Hi All, the current list is:

Bass Junky

R32GTR

R32 TT

ShadowGTR

IanB

Gun32GTR

Which leaves only one from the current batch being made......if you want it get on this list quick!

I'll send everyone details once they are ready to go :(

Duncan

I may have to pull out of this :D

After speaking to paul, I have found he makes a unit which is more suited for my needs. More expensive too, but much more customizeable.

Sorry to stuff you around! Im not sure if paul has any in stock, I believe he said he had a couple left, if he does ill grab his, but if not, I will go with this one still.

That being said, if anyone wants to take my place, they can.

    • It’s new. It’s the cd009. I did take the transmission apart to mill down the bellhousing and had both housings come off the gears so wondering is something isn’t in right. I am running redline. I can get it in gear running too but it’s just not easier and it’s almost like 2, 4, 6, and reverse all the back gears aren’t happy going in
    • I’ll remember that as a last choice. It’s brand new
    • Got keys and did a walk around the yard planning the landscaping works with the family that I will be doing Main effort: remove all the woodchip in the gardens that are around (attached) to the outside of the house and replace with 10mm blue metal, having woodchip close to the house is a recipe for inviting white ants, currently there are no white ants within the block and I would like to keep it that way I'll be buying some large raised garden beds to grow veggies and stuff, and the woodchip will be mulched with everything else that gets dug up, pulled out, or cut down during works Next will some minor drainage and landscaping maintenance up one side of the house, where the fuse box, AC, and solar stuff will go, about 12 mtrs long by 2 meters wide, I'll break up the soil, add gypsum and then I'll dig in a French drains about 300mm deep x 300mm wide and fill it with agg pipe and blue metal, then level out the whole area with a 50mm layer of blue metal, the soil, whilst currently pretty compacted, will break up well with the gypsum to aid in drainage, I'll then cover the area with a 50mm layer of more blue metal In saying this, the drainage issue is minor, but that little hidden away area down the side is untidy and weedy, and as all of the main elec stuff is there I want it neat and tidy to appease my OCD Again, the material excavated from the French drains with be added to the garden bed mulch, as will some rose bushes and some other crap looking garden plants, and a old apricot tree that is looking worse for wear The apricot tree is currently in a little roundish garden bed that is in the middle of the back yard with few other crappy looking plants around it, that will all be removed, levelled, re-turfed, and is a perfect spot for a hills hoist There is also a area about 3m x 2m between the rear fence and shed that will get some attention, it looks like some stuff was stored there and the grass is dead, that will also get broken up and mulched, and is a prime spot for a pumpkin patch I've guestimated that I'll need: 3 tonnes of blue metal, 12 meters of agg pipe, 5kg of Gypsum, and a hills hoist, so a few bags of concrete as well to set it in place (the house currently has one of those pull out 4 line jobs, whilst it works, I want a retro old school hills hoist), I am also going to run some chickens, there's a great spot for a coop, so a chicken coop to suit 4 of those lovely egg laying bitches will also be on the job card That should keep me busy for a while, and will finish off the back yard ready for a early spring planting of some veggies and berries  Once the main effort is done I'll start out the front, there's a large rock garden that could use some TLC, but that is only minor works Should be fully moved in within 2 weeks, the landscaping works will start then Fun times, retirement is good  
    • It happens, that's what your single stage filler is used for.  If it is still visible after the 3 coats of 2k primer, it will be visible after the paint is laid down.  Its hard to give 100% perfect advice without being there in person, I'm very tempted to say stop where you are, fill your pin holes with a single stage putty first then keep going. 
    • New or used transmission? Alignment will be the same with engine running or not. If new, i'm presuming it's a clutch release bearing size issue. If used, are you certain it's a CD009/A and not an older CD008 or less? They had known synchro issues. In my opinion, these transmissions should always be purchased new, they're dirt cheap and you avoid dealing with old revisions.
