R32 Gtr Attesa

[Sydneykid]

A little bit of clarification;

We have played with the ATTESA in several R32GTR's and found big improvements from upgrading/servicing the clutch packs. Just like any other clutch, the plates wear out over time and R32's are now far from new. There are a number of retail outlets than can do ATTESA upgrades, I am sure places like Racepace, Croydons and Advan would be able to help.

We haven't seen much of an issue with the hydraulics, although the pump itself is definitely worth checking and the hoses should be replaced. Don't forget to change the fluid and bleed the system.

We have found that this makes more of a difference than electronics, nothing that we tried in that area would fix a worn out clutch pack. It doesn't matter if you have the fastest ATTESA ECU, if the mechanicals are worn out, it won't help.

My suggestion, attend to the mechanicals first, then, if it still isn't up to your requirements, look to the electronics.

cheers

good idea!!! great idea actually and makes complete dense to me. only problem is here in the states there is no service for these, so i will haft to source the parts myself and get the service manuals and get my buddy to help me tackle it. is this a job that requires the front diff assembly to be removed from the car or can it be done with it in the car? i am going to do the clutch so i guess i can do it the same time. thanks

Gearbox out is easiest, just disconnect the tailshafts, no need to remove the front diff. I am sure the guys here would supply parts and instructions, although the standard ATTESA service manual would do the trick.

Hi Guys, After changing, flushing and bleeding the ATTESA oil in my 32gtr, I fitted a torque split controller, which I had a local electronics wiz kid make for me. Works really well, the car feels very tidy coming out of corners. The unit is fully adjustable 0 to 10 , 0 being standard 10 being max ( I have enough parts to make 4 more )

does it hold the torque at a constant like the HKS drag unit are is it like the units duncan uses?????? thanks
