Hey guys,

Just got my car back from smash repairs to get some minor body repairs done, and from the moment ive started my car, the 4wd lights come on.

It seems as though Attessa is not working as i have not seen any torque being delivered to the front.

I was wondering if this is a fuse problem or something else?

Also, my right headlight is busted too. Took the globe out and the filament is still in goood nick.. i tried changing the globe just to check but it doesnt seem to be working. is this also a fuse problem?

Thanks for your help.

What's the error code coming out of the ATTESSA computer?

Are you sure the headlamp globe is "in good nick"? Some breaks in the filament are hard to see. Hook it to a battery, or test with a multimeter.

There is a fuse box under the bonnet near the drivers side suspension tower. On 32's people pull the fuse to make the car into RWD, and that does cause the AWD light to come on, so check that. IIRC its the fuse closest to the front of the car.

my AWD light is always on, but the awd is working fine, ive had its checked by 3 different mechanics and car elections and all have sed its fine.

If you fix it let me know

If the AWD light is on, then that means there is a problem with the AWD system. When there is an error in the AWD system, it doesn't work.

    • yeah i agree paint match stops it from standing out so much, oh that's actually really good to know i was wondering if it would help with air flow now actually having an outlet in the bonnet. Will have to focus on ducting into and out of the radiator now to make the most of it.
    • I would paint match the whole thing to avoid unwanted attention  I had a similar bonnet, paint matched, on my old R33 GTST, but mine was a fibreglass jobbie made by Blitz in QLD, they work extremely well for radiator efficiency and under bonnet temps
    • Does anyone run this kit with factory plenum? Does the adapter and bosch tb fit under factory strut brace? I wanted to get this setup before going forward facing manifold. Thanks
    • small update time, after always wanting a "cool" looking bonnet for my car and always struggling to find one for the series 2 that i liked and wasn't an insane amount of money. Saw one i liked on RHDjapan from D-speed in Japan the price was very good for a carbon bonnet so good infact i was a little unsure how much i trusted it, decided to bite the bullet and with the help of jesse streeter in not long at all it was at my door. Once it was delivered i ran in from work and quickly unboxed it and to my surprise the quality was actually pretty good i quickly removed the old bonnet and placed on the new one to test it out and even the fitment wasnt too bad at all. Then decided to paint the little grille in the bonnet black to stop it sticking out so much.   I decided to not mess around with the hood latch and just install some aero catch hood pins, having never installed them before did some YouTube university classes and i was good to go. fair to say it is not a fun job at all from making brackets so the pins sit nicely and actually cutting through the bonnet but also being very scared of cutting the holes too big it took wayyyy longer than i would like to admit but finally got it there. Then it was time for a quick test drive to ensure the latches actually worked and thankfully the bonnet looked very stable. I still think paint matching the bonnet and leaving just the part that sticks up as carbon would help make it all look alot neater as im not sure how i feel about all that carbon on a very fridge white car but will leave it as is and see how i feel with time.  
    • I think it's bound to happen, you finally get it all perfect, and bam, something will happen. I took a while to get a Commodore rear quarter repaired where a P Plater clipped it. Two days after getting it back, Sarah wiped it out on a concrete pillar in an underground car park... This is why I take forever to repair them, it stretches how long until it gets bent again... 😛
