One of these torque spilt controllers is mounted in my R33 GTR. I cant find any info on it, and it only has an email address printed on it.

Its hooked up, flip it to 2wd and the 4wd light comes on. Have not seen any differences in torque split when i turn the knob. Have not really messed with it much

Any experience with this particular model?

I guess i should have elaborated a little more. Sorry

I got the basics of it, but read that it doesn't switch the R33 to 2wd only?

Also, if the switch is accidently switched when driving, and i switch it back to 4wd, the 4wd light stays on. Is it not switching back to 4wd?

Probably because there is preload on the clutches, you can't really have 2WD. Also if the ATTESA registers a fault and the 4WD light comes on, it is unlikely to clear while the car is running, only after turning it off and on.

Next time its wet try taking a corner as fast as you can with knob on 0 then try again with it turned up. I notice a huge difference on 0 compared with 6 (i have never really had the need to go higher) works surprising well for how simple it is

I have one of these hooked up in my 33 GTS4.

From what I understand 32's Attessa system has a fuse and electronically engages the 4wd system while 33's have a viscus fluid and the system engages based on slip and the amount of G forces put on the fluid so only the 32s could use the 2wd/4wd switch.

I've found it to be pretty good for a simple controller, and certainly does add grip. It simply tricks the Atessa system to think you're slipping - how much R% F% is based on how much you turn up the dial. 10 = 50/50% while 0 = 100%/0% or that 95%/ 5% up front while normal driving, whatever the normal ratio is.

These are the only parts of your statement with any truth.

    • More photos are up, and the price has been dropped to $16,000. It's just had a service and a new 12V battery, too.
    • I agree on doing some better than factory pistons, rods, and oil pump. For anyone using the vehicle on the road, I don't get why everyone wants big cams. The stock cam profile, with some more lift would be mint for road usage. Everyone going big cams and then wondering why it isn't as responsive in traffic, when they've shifted the torque curve upwards an additional 1000RPM. Make torque, at lower RPM. Sure it's not as cool as claiming "500KW" and revving it to 8,0000RPM, but that same torque 2,000RPM earlier... Then you don't need the extremely high end pistons and rods, and blah blah blah.
    • Personal experience. Those f**kers burn. And are actually a PITA to put out. Next time I walk down the back, I'll snap a photo of what the inside of the bonnet looks like when that thing ignites. PS, powder fire extinguishers are useless on that stuff too as it's fibrous and when it ignites, it starts to pull apart. And you end up just blowing powder through a sieve effectively.   Like the big thing is, if it's fire resistant, it's job is to stop what burning? The METAL above it? It's just to try keep heat off the bonnet paint work.
    • Oh man, sorry, $60.00000000... 😛
    • That's more or less what he meant. What it really means is that you do not have to go full crazy on the build. Don't need the best oil pump, expensive rods & pistons, big cams, etc. You can upgrade whatever you want instead of using stock level items, but you don't have to. Having said that - any time an RB is opened up, if anything is getting replaced, I think the opportunity should be taken to do all the sensible upgrades. Pistons, rods, pump, etc.
