sorry Duc, my photography skills are pretty shite - I am a point-and-shoot camera guy.

I think the GTTs put out about 140rwkw standard. Mine with pod and cai box, zorst, bleed valve @ 10psi and SAFC II should be making around 180-190rwkw I would guess.

yeah I might have to ask Donnon if he kept all the write-ups they did .... I didn't follow it at all, but now wish I had!

you would have found it very informative andrew. i only caught bits of it. i think it made around 200kw with only an exhaust, fmic, and an AVC-R. it might have had more stuff than that, but thats pretty impressive.

Its just costing to much and too tempting to spend all ya hard earnd cash on cars. doh!

sure is. ive intentionally stopped keeping reciepts, because if i added up all the $$$ ive spent on my car it would scare the hell of me.

yeah Sam, when I added up the reciepts for my S15, parts alone cost over $20k, and have spent well over another $10k putting the bits on and servicing. Scary really.

I went and saw Batman Begins on Friday night - bloody awesome movie!!!!

batman begins...

hm i heard from somewhere that its a very dark side to batman thus more about him then the villians he fight such the previous bat mans.

the gf's been nagging me to take her to see a movie and i want to know whats good out there. For her to of couse. =D

yep that synopsis of Batman is quite true .... it really is a well crafted movie too!

An interesting movie preview is saw is 'The Island' .... has Ewin McGregor and is futuristic .... looked very cool - not really a 'girly' movie though

I took Carolyn to 2 of them, and to this day she swears she would rather have her eyes poked out by red hot pokers, than watch any of the LOTR movies again :) .... they are doing the rounds on Foxtel atm, and she hates it that I always want to watch them :)

likewise Ann will not tolerate sitting 3 odd hrs again on any of the LOTR's. But I love it so i can at least now it will be on the sofa instead of hard uncomfortable cinema seats. "FRODDO!!!!". hehe

btw has anyone sat in those gold/1st class, cant remember the name exactly, seats that was offered by one of the cinema's - where youre in a recliner and decent meals. Andrew? I though it was just a marketing scheme as its adds doesnt appear on tv anymore.

im posting so much crap tonight.

I went to Gold Class with a bunch of people to see the latest Star Wars, but after knocking back some food and a bottle of wine with the chick next to me, the comfy chairs and company distracted me from the movie. I can't see much point in GC and probably wont bother with it again.
This is very sad .... The same avatar !!!!!!

dw mate, mine changes all the time.

DOH!!

btw sam, i went to protec @ gillman today. Im very impressed by what they have and their customer service - the guy who served be was a champ. I asked if he knew you but he said no. :confused: hehe

yep, that's why you pay crash repairers the big bucks .... manual labour to the extreme!

Ash - I'm surprised you didn't like Gold Class - I haven't been yet, but am keen as - comfy chair, wines, movies .... mmmm

Ah, and I dug up my old HPIs and it turns out I have almost all the R34 project car write-ups :( yay!

    • 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...
