Hi, the Attesa ETS hydraulic unit was leaking oil and I discovered that the pressure switch had a broken cap and leaking internally from it. I tried to replace the sensor alone but Nissan don't have a part number for it, except for the whole unit itself which is 41610-05u00. Can anyone advise on an alternate replacement switch? Thanks!

I've just discovered the exact same wonderful issue with my car.
Has anyone had any experience with repairing this issue or is the default answer still to grab a second hand pump assembly?

(or spend $3200 for a brand new one out of Japan)

I have 5 Stagea pump assemblies here with the same issue. If anyone finds a replacement pressure switch let me know.

If we could find the hysteresis curve of the switch I am sure I could source a replacement... Would it matter if the pressure was a little higher or lower?

I guess that depends on what the switch is used for, if it is just a pressure check to make sure the system is up to pressure it shouldn't matter, but if its used in the actual actuation of the transfer case itself its probably rather important.

Just like an air compressor pressure switch, it has a hysteresis engagement, as in it switches on at a preset low pressure, and off again at a higher one, (around 220psi afaik.) This is to keep the Attessa pressure in an approximate pressure range. If it sees anything outside that range it likely throws a code.

The transfer case won't care what maximum pressure is used to engage the clutches, but more pressure would mean the clutches are transferring more power to the front wheels than the attessa computer wants to send. How much this is an issue I don't know.

Anyway, I have found a replacement can be custom made if you don't mind waiting, and can afford 10,000 switches. :P

      I'd just like to restate that I don't think anyone here is actually hating I recently sold a car part to a guy who was building a forged auto R34, with MV stall and aiming at ~450kw. I told him that I'm him, from the future and to stop after it explodes once. I told him I knew he won't listen the first time, and that's fine. But if my predictions do come true - Change direction faster than I did. I also said it's probably no coincidence that the dyno plot of a reliable turbo engine starts to look a lot like a N/A motor. :p

      Got just the wing painted and fitted up to the existing boot. Big visual change and about time after having a GTR wing sitting in the shed since 2018 Headed up to Mallala with a quick obligatory stop in at Boliver OTR Oil control mods seems to have worked. I checked the catch can after session 1 and there was a dribble of water/e85 with barely any oil in it. After session 2 and 3 there was almost nothing and I stopped checking after that. so either great success or catastrophic failure/block of the external breather The GTR wing made a noticeable difference in the 160-185km/h sweepers. It was a very hot day for the cars at over 33C but the previously done cooling upgrade/ducting/water sprayers meant I never saw over 60C intake, 105C water and 100C oil and temps would drop back down very quickly once I shut it down. AD09's are a decent tyre but certainly and expectedly a step down when compared the the CR-S/AR-1 I have had on the car for years of track days. The handling characteristics of my car which I often describe using the Tony Hawks Pro Skater balance mechanic where either side of the center is understeer/oversteer was much more pronounced with no "green/safe" zone in the middle. However, imo it steers well/easily during oversteer largely thanks to the custom ACOSTAL front end. Enjoy a loose lap POV with my mate giggling away as a passenger.   Group photo for Peer Pressure Racing made it back home and gave it a wash Overall a great success compared to my previous two track days where i cooked the Starlets motor and blew up the new diff in the R32

      AC not coming from top vents

      By Templim · Posted

      Ayooo, been a while mates. I have a s2 r33 gtst and air stopped coming out of all the top vents.   My car has always made an actuator gear noise when turning the car on but that's a different issue I think? Did searches and am at process of thinking it's an actuator or some type of motor? I see a few different actuators and don't know which one. Would be nice to know if it was the one that's under the steering wheel so the dash doesn't need to come out.

      Hi, just checking. Did you get this stuff made by Vspec Performance and at what price roughly? Looking into (sometime later) also getting such a intake kit, and Trust as well as HKS don't make a full set like this anymore.
