A-lsd Questions

[Pure-SX]

I have recently bought a 1997 S2 R33, I believe it is equipped with the A-LSD option(has the slip/a-lsd in the instrument cluster).

Now both wheels appear to lock in a straight line, however it appears it just doesnt like corners. With the slip/a-lsd bulbs in the cluster, they never flash, so I figure either something isn't working or bulbs are dead.

Looking in the boot after having a read(1 ecu for hicas and another for a-lsd) I can only see 1? Also, there are a bunch of cut wires?

Also, where is the actual reservoir for the A-LSD fluid, is it the one in the right rear quarter panel behind the little fold down "hatch"?

Wow that sucks. Some one has ripped out all the electrics (very dodgy job by the looks of it). That would be why it aint working. Im asuming when you put your key onto ignition the ALSD light and SLIP light don't light up either?

Hrrm that's Awesome news

and no lights on start up, is there supposed to be another ecu? Any Idea where to get a wiring diagram?

the diff is indeed an a-LSD though?

Yeah it's an ALSD, easy way to tell is all the cooling ribs on the diff itself, and then the hydraulic lines running to it.

Yeah there is ment to be two ECU's in the boot, one on top of each other. One of your's is missing and the other ECU is just sitting at the back of the boot there.

There's a lot of wires and shit there, i got a feeling some one had an amplifier or something sitting there and took the ECU out.

Personally if i was in your situation, i would rip all the ALSD shit out, buy a normal GTST diff and put a 1.5 way in there. The ALSD is more drama than it is worth. Plus you'll save a fair bit of weight by doing it aswell. Your call.

Yeah having a read and all the alsd hate lol, so what Is different? Between the normal LSD and alsd model just a case of swapping duffs ver or other stuff as well? Then what just pull out all of the alsd system which would be the reservoir and the crap underneath, normal r33 diff would just go straight back in with hicas etc?

With the ecus you say on top of each other, I presume the Ecus are to the right of the battery?

Rather stumped as it will spin both wheels and both end exactly the same time?

The wires I circled in red are definetly the alsd wires and not hicas? Bit of a skyline noob lol, guessing there alsd as I getthe hicas light on ignition.
