Lol sif go there just to watch and tempt myself :D

Wow a 26.6 seems like a very good time for street tires and standard brakes. Good stuff man, ill need to go there soon

looks great; also, like the removal of side guard indicators.

^^ What are you guys talking about. Side gaurd indicators are installed in Australia as part of compliance.

No R32 from factory came with indicators. Some compliance places in Aus could get away with not installing the indicators as it was all dependent on how you interpreted the ADR specific to visiblity of indicators others installed them. So its a bit of a luck of the draw.

Apparently R32s from 1991 (I think) and after need to have the front guard indicators installed when compliance is carried out but for the older model R32s 1989, 1990, 1991 they don't need to be done

That would be why Tony's one doesn't have front guard indicators

I'm not 100% on the years but thats the reason why some have them and others don't

abu thats what i heard exacley bro, that is true..

Yeah thought so man, my cousin recently took his R32 GTR in for complianced and asked if they would not include the guard indicators but they said it was a requirement for compliance so yeah

Sorta sucks because I like the look without the indicators

I just bought new guards, couldnt stand the indicators :D JDM spec ftw

all i need now is those things that hold your seatbelts out a bit, bastards stole mine in compliance

haha I was thinking of getting GTR guards so that would solve that problem also

I love that seat belt thing, was sus that compliance might take it out but luckily they left it in!

    • 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...
    • 310mm rotors will be avilable from Australia, Japan, and probably a few other places. Nothing for the front can be put on the back.
