Send a PM to 'Duncan' and see if he has more ATTESSA controllers for sale.

And if you're after help, cut the sms talk dude. There is no saving in typing 'no' instead of 'know'. It just makes it hard to read and pisses people off. Also try breaking your post up into bite size chunks commonly known as sentences. Cheers.

pulling the fuse makes it 100% rear wheel drive until you refit the fuse.

you can make your car 2wd while driving along in 4wd. step 1, put your foot on the clutch while driving, step 2, turn the ignition off while your foots still on the clutch, step 3, turn ignition back on and foot off the clutch, now you will be in 2wd without having to pull the fuse out. to ensure your in 2wd the orange 4wd light will be lit on the dash. please note that this is only possible on the R32 GTR's. the car will automatically go back into 4wd mode when you bring the car to a complete stop.

hope some of you lucky GTR owners have learnt something new, happy sliding... B)

You can get a torque splitter than will do the job as well.

Dude refer post #2. That's what an ATTESSA controller is.

Overboost, yep, they can adjust it to your liking, from max split to no split. The search engine will turn up all the answers. :)

Heath I hope you've been behaving yourself mate! :) hehehe :blink:

The ATTESSA system in the R32 GTR is pretty good for its torque-split-ness. I notice it only kicks in (that is, the front torque guage shows a reading) when I launch hard from a standing stop or I go over slight bump on the freeway etc.

It will never have more than 50% of the drive at the front wheels anyway and to get that you wouldn't have time to notice what the guage is reading as you adjust the awesome slide you are in :)

Just for those that aren't aware, the torque split gauge does not measure a percentage, it measures kilogram.metres, ie torque.

A reading of 50 on the gauge does not mean you're driving an overweight STi :D

That said, when your GTR rolled out of the factory years ago with its claimed 353Nm. That's around 36kgm, so a stock car won't see 50

Yeah, happy sliding for me too yesterday then a bit of a drift around the corner, then the backend broke loose and more oversteer, then I put a bit more throttle in to get the front torque to pull me straight but...

Round I went 180 degrees, parallel crashing into the 30cm high kerb on the other side of the road.

Damn it sucks crashing and f*#king up your wheels, suspension arms front lip and spoiler, and throw in a front crossmember and cv joint too. Only happened yesterday arvo Just out of lithgow heading back to sydney.

My fault, going too quick around a corner.

Take it easy guys.

Damn Sean! I saw your car for the first time last week too! Well as long as you're alright mate.

I had a 'moment' coming down Hawkesbury Rd a fortnight ago on a Friday morning when the road was greasy. I was trying to suss out how the torque split works and I did a similar thing but *just* retained control (it was a 35kmh left into a 25kmh right I think). Learned a good lesson! No damage, never connected with anything but enough to speed up the ticker for a few k's.

If you're after parts, let me know, cause I bought a stack (bumper etc) when I had my car painted and have a fair idea of how much Nissan can sell them for.

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By brillo · Posted

      Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.

      R33 GTST Steering Rack (49001-19U05) Rebuild?

      By Gantai · Posted

      Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By SteveL · Posted

      I don't get in here much anymore but I can help you with this.   The hole is a vent (air relief) for the brake proportioning valve, which is built into the master cylinder.    The bad news is that if brake fluid is leaking from that hole then it's getting past the proportioning valve seals.   The really bad news is that no spare parts are available for the proportioning valve either from Nissan or after market.     It's a bit of a PITA getting the proportioning valve out of the master cylinder body anyway but, fortunately, leaks from that area are rare in my experience. BTW, if those are copper (as such) brake lines you should get rid of them.    Bundy (steel) tube is a far better choice (and legal  in Australia - if that's where you are).
