Funny, I though I posted up earlier - turns out I haven't. Pretty average looking gtr, just kept simple. Thinking of getting new rims but can't decide on what ones to get. I was going go stock but maybe they will look too small?

Why would you down grade?

I would be getting something like these:

Wierd to me that you'd see R32 GTR rims as a downgrade. Sure they're not 18s etc but they are a classic and still look great on 32s. Yes they need another 20mm of offset, but still a great choice in my book.

Yeah they look nice. Might look into it. I was thinking of somthing in a matte black though or a dark bronze. I do approve of the style though - its neat and looks sporty, I can't stand cromies etc, looks very tacky.

Yeah i also dont rate chromies AT ALL! Your current rims look good on the car though. Black on black can look good but sometimes the rim style is a bit lost cause they don't stand out. But time attack's are fkn sweet!

if youve got colouful stuff behind black wheels and big f$%k off rotors... they dont really get lost. i think that high gloss black can get lost due to the reflections... too much going on, too much shine, cant really see the shape of the wheel or where the wheels end and the wheel well starts.

TIME ATTACK TE37'S FTW!!!!

here's a couple of my cars, got lucky with the number plates.... "SKYLINE" on the GTS-T (not on in these pics) and "GODZILA" on the GTR.

the GTS-T is running a RB 25/30 with microtech lt12s and gt3076r turbo never been on a dyno but eats my brother 260 rwkw xr6 turbo ute..... the gtr is a forged bottom end with -5 turbos and has never been on a dyno...lol. get my licence back soon so i'll get tuning....

    • 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...
