Havent seen photos of this R34 for a while. This is the R34 that was on the the cover of SPEED magazine back in 2003 & also on the cover of 2nd HPI GTR Special edition. Very cool GTR.

Munro has had some sick GTRs.

I was cruising through a green light, but an overseas uni student didnt give way when turning across traffic. She didnt have a green arrow, just a green light. But apparently in her country green no matter what is go, so yeh... the results were not good. I must say my car held up better then hers it would appear.

Tried my best but had no where to go... :teehee:

Spent plenty of time trying to keep her in top nick, definitely was a sad day...

My avatar is the last pic of it all good, so Im glad it made the video :D

One chapter over in my automotive life I guess. I doubt I will ever find another import in the same condition. I really couldnt fault it in one way sadly.

At first I climbed out of the passenger door and walked away without looking. LOL I didnt want to see the damage. But eventually I worked up the courage...

Had to take a snap to show the SAU crew...

Ouch man.

That's messed up. Sorry to hear its a write off :P

Hi People's. You probably seen my car here but its changed and finally completed. I posted pictures from when i bought it, to what it looks like right now.

Yeah, that front bar looks good :blush: Nicely done, looked so easy the way you did it haha.

Haha, Your right, looks easy but dam i put alot of time and work into it.

I'm glad i did though, turned out great. this was my first time too, from fitting to modding.

I got to say to those people that wants to mod stuff themselves , its great fun and you get alot of experience from it.

Just be patient and research

    • 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...
