Just had the car remapped (drives so much better now) but the 4wd light has come on and we can't work out why. As far as I know the 4wd is controlled by a separate ecu, at least it is in the Skyline, so I was presuming it's still the case in the Stagea? This is on a series 1 rs4 that's had a manual gearbox conversion. Not had a problem with the 4wd system before, any help would be appreciated.

No gone for the Link G4 ecu.Don't think anything that was done would have affected the throttle position sensor, how would that affect the 4wd?

Yeah could be coincidence, but the light came on as soon as the new ecu was plugged in.

I have the same problem. Well sort of anyway.

My 4wd light comes on probably 8/10 times I drive the car. Sometimes straight away, some times not at all... I have the rs4s with a 'mines' ecu.

I am putting a new set of wheels on this Friday and getting a wheel alignment so if that doesn't fix it (doubt it will) then further investigation is needed.

I am keen to see if there is known problems that cause this as well.

Hey mate,

Was it tuned on a 2wd dyno? Might have clutch pack problem if you did...

Can you jack it up so all 4 wheels are off the ground? If you can, spin the rear wheels. If the front wheels turn as you do, you still have pressure in the ATTESA system. If not, you might be in strife. Best case, the clutches took a beating but are ok and you just need to get some more fluid in the system, check the reservoir in the drivers side rear.

I have the R33, R34 GTR service manual if you can get access to a consult box; it will tell you whats going on...

good luck, pm me if you need anything.

Ayvon, if your car is the R33 GTR, it's pin 56

Link/ViPec and some other computers "share" the TPS signal from the TPS sensor instead of relying it which inturn lowers the voltage at the various control units, the 34 feels it the most because of the MFD, this is an issue I'm having at the moment and the cure, for me atleast, is a buffer to up the voltages back to correct levels

MFD, Multi Function Display, R34 GTR

where are located ?, I have a guy making me a voltage chaser, basically it takes a high imp input and puts out a low imp out put so it can supply the right signal voltage for more things to use, on mine I'm going to cut it in to the wire leaving the ecu, he made me a PWM switching unit for my fuel pump and it works perfectly

    • G'day all, I have drilled and tapped the hole for the relocation of the timing belt tensioner. That was straight forward. I'm unsure if I need to also put another hole for the smaller stud that the spring behind the tensioner catches on (this is how it seems to work in its original spot). Or do you not use the spring behind it and just torque it down? Thanks in advance, I did a search but couldn't find anything related and it doesn't mention it in the rb30det sau guide.
    • Hi All,  just thought I would provide an update as I know smooth (Matt) was on this forum from 2003.    my brother Matthew passed away end of may 2024 at the age of 41 from liver failure. I am not sure how many of his original team krazy friends are still on here or active but thought it reasonable to let the forum know.    if you have any photos or pictures it would be great if you could share them.    it took me a while to work out he was active on here.    thanks so much

    • 😜 hopefully we get this instead of a new R36 GTR due to recent financial problems at Nissan. Nismo to sell a complete kit with RB26 and driveline. All starts making sense (ok maybe not) once the Nissan Leaf's (Leaves?) with stuffed EV motors/batteries hit the market cheap
    • Hi guys , have had allot of time for SAU and has helped me out heaps in the past so I thought I would give it a go , I have my QM1 white NUR for sale 1 of 156 examples built by Nissan. Serious personal messages please if interested and details will be provided , asking 500k
