Yay for me. After a couple of months waiting for me to choose coilovers and save some $ (I get paid monthly) my GTR is finally back on the road with some new goodies. ;)

GReddy Type S coilovers

dba 4000 slotted rotors + Ferodo DS2500 pads

Tyre rotation

Wheel alignment

Dyno tune producing 248.5 rwkW at Boost Worx :)

Now I just have to wait for this double demerit point long weekend to be over and go for some hill runs. :)

I'm selling the white GTR.

This thread was refering to the grey one. My bad... I should have stated that.

I jump in the white GTR after using the Pug as a daily driver and think "F**k this is a great car"

Now I can jump in the grey one again and just start giggling. I love this car!

did u replace the rotors all round or only front are the 32 rotors able to me machined to fit a 33 in a 4 stud pattern ?? so many questions :P

I only replaced the front rotors but put new brake pads on both front and rear.

I don't know if the rotors can be machined to fit a 33 in a 4 stud pattern. The old rotors are gone. They were under 28mm thick and therefore not street legal.

I've been around... on the forum at least. But I haven't been on a cruise since the grey GTR's front passenger coilover seized on the late night cruise we did to Gawler a few months ago. Since then it has lay dormant waiting for new coilovers (turned out the rear driver's side one had seized as well). I went to check point 3 (BP South Rd, St Marys) in the white GTR for the Victor cruise (which had the best turn out I've seen for a SAU event) but didn't go on the actual cruise. Now I can mingle with the 'lines again.

      R32 GT-R: 4WD Light Turns On After Bumps – Code 19 (ETS Motor) But No Issues Found

      Look for broken wire or bad connector at the motor. Might not be it, but is worth starting there, as it is easy.

      R32 GT-R: 4WD Light Turns On After Bumps – Code 19 (ETS Motor) But No Issues Found

      By Bireley_32 · Posted

      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...
