wogboy - I sold it to a guy in tasmania almost a year ago. He had a new motor to put in it but i haven't seen or heard about the car since he bought it. I'd love to see it now.

Skyline17 - Thanks. Yeah i got that comment alot many people didn't like the rims. I personally thought they suited the car but they definitly didn't help any weight/performance issues. If i still had it i'm sure i would've changed them by now.

I thought it was the same one that I've seen around here in Burnie, N.W Tas. Haven't seen it for awhile.

So Wogboy had the new owner changed the rims since you've seen it in Tas? What you think of it in person?

When I saw it, it was pretty much the same as in the pics. Not a big fan of the slab sided side skirts but the rest of the car was sweet :D

what is this front bar? and where do i find one?

am i right in assuming its a standard one? but only on certain 34's?

its the front bar off the nismo aero kit im pretty sure. finding one........good luck. mine got a bit of a prang and the body shop tried east, usa and japan and no luck! kept getting the wrong photos sent pretty rare. luckily i had no cracks so a re bake and mould and twas right

Cheers NA_Goodness... Glad you like it... The NA/P plate factor was the main reason for goin that style as well :D

hey mate,

ive also seen that car driving around down here in tasmania, in the devonport area though..

so is it N/A or turbo?

on the street it certainly looks very attention grabbing, i dont mind the style myself, but doubt i would feel comfortable cruising around in it, well done anyway though!

if you dont mind me asking how much did you sell it for?

Hey,

Why wouldn't you feel comfortable? Bit too full on you reckon?

When I sold it it was N/A but i'm pretty sure the guy had a new motor waiting for it over in Tazzi. whoops not sure if this edit works but out of respect for new owner probably shouldnt say what i sold it for.

Apart from the car, what do people think of the actual photos? Which style photo is preferred?

Edited by Notorious32

Some photos, but a little bit over exposed on the front for pics 1, 2 and 3. Number 4 is perfect on the car, but the back ground again is too exposed. Maybe shooting at a later time would help? As for the pics themselves, that all look good! Nice angles. Are they hosted off FaceBook? Because they seem to have lost a lot of the previous quality.

Yeah they are hosted of facebook haha i don't have the originals on this computer. The shots were taken at about 2am in the morning just playing with exposures and shutter speeds etc.. I didn't set up any lights and used a dark corner because the fluros around the corner were giving me the shits.

Aaron from import monster (such an awesome guy) let me borrow a set of wheels for a show and shine. soi took some happy snaps :thumbsup: if your interested he is selling these wheels http://www.importmonster.com.au/shop/produ...2d8fd2b261f0b6a

19" Advan T6 forged wheels running 19X9 +20 fronts and 19X10 +25 rears. fronts on 215 rubber and rears on 235 so pretty stretched but no scrubbing what so ever and guards have not been rolled :D

Wow that looks pretty fkn aggresive man. You should buy them for your car.

Just needs to be black, not a fan of the colour but may look better irl.

Suprised the rears didn't rub, my 18 x 9.5 + 22 would rub at the back with the guards not rolled with 1 passenger.

lol thanks man. ye the colour is something i want a fan of eaither but it grew on me lol.

i was surprised the rears didnt rub either. at that height i had about 1mm gap between the rubber and the guards but the rears are stiff as rock so wasnt much movement. plus the streatched rubbers helped also

    • 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...
