r33 switch question

[JVizZLe]

newb question here, anyone knows what the button under the steering wheel does?its on the left side above your left knee. sory i got no pics but duno how to post em..anyways the button looks like theres a "Y" in the middle with a triangle that looks like a tent on both sides..lol..thx

while u guys are on this whats the bottle in the trunk inside the right panel?
is it for the awd fluids?

[Snake556]

Isn't that button for the telescoping function on the column?

Also, HICAS fluid in the trunk.

[ColinR33]

The switch is for raising and lowering the power antennae. Snake is right about the fluid.

[Snake556]

Ah, power antenna! That's what it is Thanks for the info, Colin. I wasn't sure on that one :P

[JVizZLe]

haha so sick..u can control antenna height..i was wondering for a long time what that did..the pic on the button made no sence to me..thx for the info..
cuz my car cant keep a charge..got to boost it every 2 weeks..(its parked) i thought that button leaves something on that drains the battery when its off..still trying to figure out why it wont start if i dont start it in 2 weeks when battery is new

Hicas fluid in the trunk? I must be missing something, I've stripped my R33 and never came across this. I thought R33's had electrically controlled hicas. I had a Gts25t mind you, so I'm not sure if the GTR is different in that regard.

[ColinR33]

Yeah, it is electrically controlled...now I'm gonna go back and check again tonite...:?

[Snake556]

Whoa, totally forgot the 33's were electronic! In that case... wtf is that reservoir for? If it's not HICAS fluid, then...?

[ColinR33]

Ah, it is the resevoir for torque split control, tracked it down on FAST.

[MattRose]

Haha sweet i got something right! I was like you guys have me so confused right now. But on another note, you;ve confused me again. What is torque split control? and is it GTR specific?

[ColinR33]

The ATTESA all wheel drive system will redirect torque from front to rear and side to side on the 95 and up GTR's. I think it also controls the ABS as well on the 95+ models.

[Snake556]

ATTESSA was my second guess :P

[SHOTTA]

Only the 95 and up V-SPEC are equipped with ATTESSA-ETS PRO with active rear lsd that transfers torque left and right only at the rear wheels
