Hi Guys,

Had a few unfortunate things occur over the past few months, including the death of my father -my only relative - meaning my Skylines plans are on hold - at least for a while. Not super happy about it I can tell you. There are some big issues, not least of which right now is space.

Thats where you can help

I need to get rid of a heap of R33 GTS front cut leftover bits. There is a whole heap of interior panels, blinker arms - wiper bottles, brake lines, glovebox, heater box and piping, - look heaps of stuff. I'll get some photos over the next few days - but its free to a good home. It got to be at least $500 worth of stuff.

So, whats the catch? I'd really prefer a known SAU ACT memeber gets it, so its given good use around the ACT - not just someone who'll sell for max profits - if I had more time I'd do that myself.

The other thing is you'll need to bring a wagon/ute/trailer/van (not a Skyline - may not fit) and take it all away.. I live in Wagga Wagga, about 2 1/4 hours away. It'll only be one good wagonload - but I really need the space soon (in the next 2 weeks maximum). I'm not interested in seperating any little parts you need - if I was going to do that I'd be selling it myself. It all goes in one lot.

So, any takers? I'd hate to end up throwing something useful away here.

Do a search on this forum, Ive seen how to fix that involving a saftey pin

I too suffer from this =(

Maybe some of the SAU Garage boys could head up there with a wagon and grab all the stuff.

Bluprint??

You guys are always pulling things apart! :lol:

I think he means that whoever wants stuff needs to get it all, not just pick little bits out that we need. Has anyone got a garage that will fit the stuff, as my car will fit all this stuff if we have somewhere to keep it, like an SAU salvos bin. then everyone can come and get the bits they need as they see fit.

if not, i'll happilly make the trip then store it all at my parents farm in Bathurst, which again makes it harder for people to get to it.

Terminal is exactly right. I need the space - and am giving you the parts as payment for getting them I guess. There would have to be at least some useful stuff down there. Will get some pics in tomorrows light, as I said there is at least some useful stuff there.

Thanks for the kind words also guys.

As I said, i'd be more than happy to go and collect it all for him, just need somewhere to store it. my missus would kill me if i dumped it in our garage, so if anyone has a shed out back that's half empty share the love, and we can all have a spare parts bin to dip into when we need something.

otherwise i'll just take it back to bathurst and keep it there until people need the parts.

Ok, so we have a lift but no storage - any takers??? It would be great to get rid of it this weekend, or next at the latest.

As I said, a cleaver investor could make some money off this stuff I'm sure witha bit more time than I.

Zant,

I'll take it, I'll pick it up sometime next week - I can't this weekend - then try to get over to the xmas party at cotter. That way the other guys can look at it and/or take it. As stated, I don't really want it unless there is a GT3076R in it ... lol I'm pm you my number and we can talk about it.

    • 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...
