Ive the chance to get a HKS torque split controller and i need to know if it will work with a Stagea s1 awd. The unit in question is for a BNR32 GTR OR BCNR33 GTR OR GTS-4.

Will it work??

Please help me out guys.

Cheers jonny.

The R32 unit and the R33 unit are different as the looms (ATTESA plugs) are not the same. In theory, if the Stagea ATTESA plugs are the same as the R32 ones, then it will work. Alternatively, if they are the same as the R33, then an R33 unit will work.

So its clear now the hks one won't work but has anyone found any companies that make one that will work with stageas?????

MyStag260 lists an attessa torque split controller in his sig - perhaps contact him?

no in the end I didn't put a controller on mine for 2 reasons.

1. the loom and plug wire colours are different to 32, 33 and 34.

2. it already has plenty of fwd as far as I'm concerned - it has power understeer not power oversteer. and attessa controller can't reduce the amount of fwd, just increase it

so the controller only gives u more front bias?? imo thats pointless, the normal awd attesa on my stagea has grip up the wazoo. when could u possibly need more?? i thought the controller gave u more rear bias for those times when u want a little less front traction. i guess u learn something new everyday

yeah exactly.

I should clarify - any controller that works with the standard system can only add front torque - that includes the ones I used to get, HKS, GRID, Paul Ruzic's one, the cheapy ebay ones. There is 1 controller I know of that is different, HKS drag controller replaces the standard attessa computer with their own that has a selectable fixed split that drops back to rwd over a certain speed. So also no use for street or track use.

    • Ha! well, there's your problem!  Guess the last person in there didn't have great attention to detail....
    • It seems like you guys want to behave like rabid dogs, rather than gentlemen... Knowing one has jumped in on a fellow comrades near done deal, and sniped it at the last second, how can one sleep at night?
    • My wifes says we have a spare set.
    • Good news!!! Changed the O ring today and I’ve got the “pssshhhh” back when I open the fuel cap 😂🙌🏼🙌🏼 It was 100% the O ring because that bloody thing was inside the fuel tank 😂😂😂😂😂 Fitting new fuel pump was a pain as always since the DW is a bit longer than stock. But she’s running!!! ❤️
    • PWM quite literally just chops the ful 12V voltage on and off at whatever duty cycle you're running it at. If you're running it 100%, then it is on full voltage all the time, same as if there was no PWM. If you run it at 50% duty cycle, it is only seeing the full 12V half of the time. This is broadly equivalent to running it at 6V. But the crucial difference is that motors (and a lot of other loads) don't like being powered at low volts. They will either fail to start rotating, or draw a shit ton of current, or other undesirable things. But if you give them the full volt, and then a short period of no volts, and then some more full volts, then the times when they are seeing power they are seeing all the voltage, and they are happy. But you get the performance out of them as if they were only seeing that fraction of the full voltage. It is not really easy to answer your question about what flow you will get out of it at 50% duty cycle. I can tell you that it is not as simple as you think. For a start, that 460 L/h pump is not going to flow 460 when you're on boost. When you're on boost you will be somewhere down the sloping part of that red line. If you have 15 psi of boost, then the pump can only deliver about 95 gal/h, which is <380L/h. So your simple 50% on 460 = 230 wasn't going to work anyway. But also, it won't deliver 50% of 380 either, because when you devolt or PWM trim th epower being fed to the pump, it is not able to deliver flow or pressure in the same way. 50% duty cycle will probably produce <50% of the full voltage flow. The way to find out what duty cycle you need to run it at at low load (ie, at idle) is to idle it and turn the DC down until you start to lose fuel pressure, then turn it back up above that with some extra for safety. And then you do the same thing at full load, in case it doesn't need anywhere near 100% DC. And if you're careful/caution/prudent, you will also do it at a couple of loads in between so you can shape the DC map against load. It might not be linear between the two end points.
