nice! The bolts holding my spoiler blade in are rusted shut. I want to get it out so I can add the risers/aftermarket spoiler to the factory ...thing... on the trunk.

How the car sits.. about to start working on a Lost Birds Garage original front spoiler setup in CF. Probably gonna take awhile. going to keep the 'art' lip off to the side and install it for car shows and such.

i ended up having to drill out one of mine. stupid torx heads :ermm:

I had to go to bunnings and buy a torx set for it 20 bucks and got all sizes :P

Collen car looks MINT, just make sure when you make the front spoiler that you reinforce the shit out of it and make it strong :ermm:, within a day of owning my GTR I cracked my stock one.. was only going about 1km/h and still cracked.. so now I plan on bogging it up / sanding it down and maybe put a metal bar behind it.. and then carbon wrap or just paint mine a flat black colour not sure yet.

Hows the titanium exhaust sound? Oh and you should get clear indicators for the front as well to finish off the fantastic car :D and if you can manage to get your hands on some series 3 headlights.. PORN ON WHEELS.

Edit: on another note I pulled into maccas today and these 2 11-12 year old kids jaw dropped they were like omg a GTR haha good to see it wasn't just me growing up always wanting one of these cars.

haha thanks man

yeh I need to lower it more as well anyways, the black rims make it look more like a 4WD.. its hard because exhaust is already just sitting on the 10CM legal height.. need to tuck it up somehow

get it tucked its easy as,

dont worry about height once you get coils its an easy as fix, and thankfully with the stock kit you wont really have dramas even at around 80mm it will still look legal cos really whats 2cms to the eye? fk all. but the stance will improve 10 fold

those rotas have awesome concave what size/offset u get?

haha yeh i guess if i get done i can just raise it up again, just annoying thats all :P and living in knox just a matter of time before i get pulled over :)

and yea i love the concave on them, they are 18x10 +15 on all 4, with 265/35 tyres on all 4, cant wait to lower it and make it all flush

    • 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...
