So if anyone comes across an R32 shell let me know time to rebuild again

Cheers Peter

Faaark, dude I sugest getting a cage. Good your ok though.

glad your not too hurts

reality check for the kiddies out there looks like and impact speed of around 30-40 km/h

any faster and you would have been in hospital for a good deal of time and you lucky whatever you hit had a good diameter which helps in a lower speed impact

fatz

Dude ! Glad your ok. Went through something similar about a month ago sitting at an intersection waiting to turn right was hit head on by a Porsch running a red trying to avoid hitting a van doing a u turn at the lights ! Ambo, intesive care the works ! Concrete medium strip got him airbourne on impact, spun 180 and smashed into the back of my line above the rear right wheel ! So I know what youve gone through and as long as your ok the rest dont mean squat !

DAMN

you were very lucky to walk away from that without being hurt champ.

Glad your ok and good luck with the new build up :domokun:

I have a shell with a few goodies but crook motor in Tassie if your interested >_<

Cheers GMB

damn !!!!!!!!!!!

that is a pretty bad accident.....I think you and I both have used one of our nine lives.

I had an accident slightly worse than that a few years back....XF falcon rammed by corolla from behind at 80km/h + and the car flipped vertically and landed on a fence....it was a corolla sedan csi after the accident it looked like a chop top hatchback....

Were you shaking a bit when you got out of the car ??

I know I was....

Anyways at least your ok !!!!

Good to read your not too badly banged up. (it good to have a war story, but not have to tell it from a wheel chair) :bunny:

Bugger. Could well of been the country's quickest std RB20...what tyres were you running again? Your thing was half the reason i didnt bother running mine as i knew you were about to put down the numbers and fly the flag

Hope your recovery goes well....and a R32 shell comes your way soon!

Roy engine still running fine not even a water leak after that so when i get a new shell and slip in the running gear I'll try flying that flag again , and silver thanks man

Cheers Peter

P.S I might paint the next one red there suppose to be faster arnt they

wow...

can I ask where you're located to have frost on the road? I've never seen this in sydney..

also, before you ditch the car, please sell me the vents and other internal bits that you won't use in your next car.

glad you came out of it with a little rib pain only.

    • You Gregged a whole racetrack!?
    • Look for broken wire or bad connector at the motor. Might not be it, but is worth starting there, as it is easy.
    • Hi everyone, I’m having an issue with my R32 GT-R. Sometimes, when the car goes over a bump or experiences some vibration, the 4WD warning light comes on the dashboard. When I check the code from the control unit in the trunk, it shows Code 19 – ETS Motor. However, everything seems to be working fine — if I turn off the engine and restart the car, the light goes away and everything functions normally. Has anyone experienced this before? Where should I start troubleshooting this issue? Thanks in advance!
    • I'm back from the dyno - again! I went looking for someone who knew LS's and had a roller dyno, to see how it shaped up compared to everything else and confirm the powerband really is peaking where Mr Mamo says it should. TLDR: The dyno result I got this time definitely had the shape of how it feels on the road and finally 'makes sense'. Also we had a bit more time to play with timing on the dyno, it turns out the common practice in LS is to lower the timing around peak torque and restore it to max after. So given a car was on the dyno and mostly dialled in already, it was time for tweaking. Luis at APS is definitely knowledgable when it came to this and had overlays ready to go and was happy to share. If you map out your cylinder airmass you start seeing graphs that look a LOT like the engine's torque curve. The good thing also is if you map out your timing curve when you're avoiding knock... this curve very much looks like the inverse of the airmass curve. The result? Well it's another 10.7kw/14hp kw from where I drove it in at. Pretty much everywhere, too. As to how much this car actually makes in Hub Dyno numbers, American Dyno numbers, or Mainline dyno numbers, I say I don't know and it's gone up ~25kw since I started tinkering lol. It IS interesting how the shorter ratio gears I have aren't scaled right on this dyno - 6840RPM is 199KMH, not 175KMH. I have also seen other printouts here with cars with less mods at much higher "kmh" for their RPM due Commodores having 3.45's or longer (!) rear diff ratios maxing out 4th gear which is the 1:1 gear on the T56. Does this matter? No, not really. The real answer is go to the strip and see what it traps, but: I guess I should have gone last Sunday...
