The 'button'

Iputs more torque to front wheels, not sure of %age, but more than 50

Can't be more than 50%, ATTESSA hydraulic pump locks up the clucthes to the front wheels, rear wheels are always solidly connected. So at max pressure best is 50/50.

What does the centre diff button do next to the steering wheel?

Try it on wet grass. When turned off Stagea spins rear wheels for a bit and then feeds some torque to the front wheels and drives off. When turned on, it just drives off straight away, no waiting.

Very handy as the rear doesn't step out in the snow and ice. Not much use to me, no snow and ice in Sydney. Could be handy in the pits with the trailer on the back when it's wet though. The old Foulcan used to sit there spinning it's one rear wheel. Had to get towed to the sealed pit road once at Bathurst, very embarassing.

Just one more reason for choosing a Stagea :D

Hahahaha, good one SK, I can see it now, the old Foulcan smoking up one tyre in the pits and everyone looking thinking 'What the hell is he doing !!'...

Anyway, I just found this out last night as I was reading through heaps of Jap stuff on Stagea's.

With the button pressed in, the torque is 50/50 up to 20km/h. After 20km/h it sits at 80/20 (80% rear and 20% front) unless the front requires more, then it can vary up to 50/50.

Very interesting hay... You can see they were designed mainly for snow use (and would be great for pulling a boat out of the water at the boat ramp), and probably explains why you don't feel a big difference when driving normally with the button in.

I actually got the link from Rezz's post on the thread you started :D The first link, but it was in a link in that link - if that makes sense !!!

Here's the first link;

http://homepage2.nifty.com/WGNC34/tuningdatetop.htm

You have to click on 'INDEX' for it to bring down a list of other links.

That particular info is the third link down in that link :) - here's the link;

http://homepage2.nifty.com/WGNC34/tuningdouryoku.htm

To read it you have to put it into a translator (bablefish won't work for some reason....). I use this translator http://www.systransoft.com/ after a while you have to register, but it's free.

Then in some sort of Japglish you can make this out at the bottom of the page;

"You handle for the reference and there is this kind of statement in the instruction manual.

At the time (usually time) of synchronizer mode OFF basis: 0: 100 MAX50: Variable control up to 50

At the time of synchronizer mode ON below (when departing) vehicle speed 20 km... 50: 50 fixing

Above (when travelling) vehicle speed 20 km... basis 20: 80 MAX50: Variable control up to 50."

so this is a good feature to have when chopping holden utes at the traffic lights in the rain?

:);) ;)

Mate he was soooooo far behind, I leasurely changed lanes and drove along at the speed limit. Still took him a K or so to catch up. Subaru Forresters are also fun, they keep looking in the rear view mirror wondering why this strange waggon is keeping up. KEEPING UP, huh I was looking for room to go around. And then there was 4 guys in 2 WRX's that got whiplash when I went in between them in a roll on at the lights.

I have been having so much fun. :D

    • From what I've seen and experienced first hand with those powder extinguishers, they're good to use to break a window and escape the car, and half the time then do f**k all to stop a fire. You just need much more than 1KG worth of powder. Not to mention, half the time it's an engine bay fire, and you can't easily, and do not want to completely open the bonnet, so you're left pretending to be an American Infantry... Spray and Pray baby!   And then 100% that shit is really destructive afterwards!   Realistically, those little ones at a race track might help you keep the fire from growing and give the fire marshal / truck a chance to actually get to you with their multiple large bottles.   For a road car, these days, prepare to deboard as quickly as humanly possible, and move to safety. Allow insurance to fix replace it (unless it's like a rare classic etc, then do nearly everything possible to save it!) Keep the little extinguisher with you to help protect other things around you from burning while you stand there singing "How can we sleep while our beds are burning?"   Secondly, powder extinguishers I freaking hate for indoor use, (this isn't really relevant to a car) as you will get a powder fog around you, and it can be disorientating.   When I did fire training when at BlueScope Steel, they have (had?) their own fire brigade on site. We did all the training, and at the end we were told, "If it's an indoor fire, and you need to use a powder extinguisher, we as the fire brigade would rather you just exit the building, you're more likely to get lost in the smoke and powder fog than do much help, so just GTFO" And pretty much that was what they said for most other fires too, grab extinguisher, if it's much more than paper in a bin fire, use extinguisher to get you and others out of the building to safety...   Part of me wishes when my Skyline caught alight many moons ago, I let insurance sort it out, instead of putting the fire out... part of me now says "But I've saved a classic before it was a classic!"
    • Hi all,  I have a older model of the Greddy Front facing intake on an RB25DET NEO Head. I've bought aeroflows fuel rail and injector kit (1000cc Bosche injectors) and I'm unsure if the fitment is correct. The injector o-rings fit in the intake hole but it's not snug. I can very easily rotate the injectors even when the fuel rail is mounted. The kit also came with multiple adaptors, they dont make it any more snug and using them raises the injectors up and i cant mount the fuel rail. I hope this makes sense I've asses a few photos.    Thanks so much guys. 
    • So, to run the 4g aerials to the booster, I had to get access to the rear bulkhead....bit of a mission. Hot tip, don't offer to help change the rear shocks for a mate with a v37.... Remove seat base, 2 clips that slide forward to release it the it lifts straight out Fold down rear seat (pull in from boot) The side bolster of the rear seat is not connected to the middle parts that fold. To remove unbolt at the bottom bolt then push it up off the top hook Then there is a plastic surround behind the seat back, 2 pop out clips, 2 bastard clips, some swearing at it is out Pop the rear seat latch surround off Remove door surround lower trim then side trim  Remove c pillar trim - 4 clips, pull inwards not forwards Remove metal brace - 5 bolts 1 nut Then you have got to the rear strut top...what a pain!
    • If you really want squish back, you can have it put on the piston (at least to some extent).
    • Impressive. He's very very smooth.
