Mine is obviously a GT-R wannabe but thats the way it arrived on these shores. Genuine R wing, 400R front, skirts and rear spats. It came in with a GT-R badge on the front. Luckily nothing on the back. The first thing I did B4 starting it up was rip off that badge on the front. The GTST is a great car in its own right. There is no need to shame it and yourself coz a "T", no matter what is done to it, can always be distinguished from an "R"

lol denham... thats just sad.

as for the GTR badge ifbred on the front.. thats fair enough... but this one has a GTR badge on the back... its the whole pretending to be something ur not... i dont know... imo its the gheyest thing u could ever do.

If it ain't an R, don't go out and make the effort to pretend it is.

Rs and Ts are brilliant cars in their own right and they should stay seperated.

If yr car landed or you bought the car with the badges, fair enuf I guess, but don't go out there and deliberately put R badges on the car thinking that it'll put you higher in the food chain. If anything, it'll drop you.

This scenario is the same as ppl who put the M badge on their 318is pretending to be an M3. It sickens me.

The worst defacing I saw was M3 Motorsport rims on a Honda Accord....

If you want rice, take a cooking class ;)

    • 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...
