As you may all know now, i'm working on my drifting Z.

 

I was since last week on the process of removing all the useless wire all over the car. I removed the Hicas, the speed control, the ABS, the rear wiper...

My problem is that i found a electronic box call "ampli de commande de vitesse".

If i try to translate, it come something like that: "speed command amplifier"

I finaly cut it out as i was thinking of something useless on a race car.

 

 

Today, i install back all the beam and i finally have one missing cable (red) going underneath the rear hatch. This red wire is the one going on the beam with the fuel pump. But from what I have found, this red wire is "differential temperature contact) so i think it's something about starting (and stopping) the oil pump of the differential.

 

So my question is How the differential oil pump work?

 

thank you :)

im pretty sure the oil pump on the diff works on temp'

ie if you drove round like a pussy all day it SHOULDN'T be needed, once you start hammering it it should become operational, so i GUESS the wire you have is for that?

so i could simply install a switch and it would do it all the time as i'm only racing?

Yes you could do :)

nice thank you :)

 

PS: The australian guys says they don't have differential oil pump :confused:

European cars have the diff oil pump but Japanese imports don't.

Maybe Australian cars are the same.

 

You could probably just remove it all if you want to save weight.

yes that's what i was thinking about :D

junk the system and save a fair amount of weight.

 

I use a r33 skyline for drifting with a locked diff.

Have you altered the diff for drifting?

 

cheerz, mickey

no, so far it's drifting pretty well with the stock one.

 

I was thinking about the 2 way LSD but don't really know how it will behave on time attack days!
