cheers mate

We've actually been holding dinners each week for the past 4 weeks to try and gather more input from members as to what they would like. Whether it be track days, cruises, happy laps or piss ups. Next year will be a good year with what seems to be a lot of plans coming together. You should come to the xmas party this weekend and meet some of the boys. We also congregate on www.sauqld.com and discuss things there as well.

Hi I'm new to the scene :) I live in Ipswich, work in Brisbane as an AV/IT Tech. I just purchased an r33 s2 gts-t , pretty standard mods, fmic, coilovers, ebc, high flow running 13psi . I commute in it daily up the western freeway carpark to milton so I might see a few of you around!

Hi guys, just joined the forums and doing the rounds introducing myself. Purchased a 94 R33 GTSt in April 2012 in celebration of going onto my o3o end licence have not regretted my decision. Big step up from a 150hp FWD U13 bluebird XD. Hope to see some of you around. If you see me out and about feel free to say hi.

Hey mate loving the orange (I may have some competition for "most eye piercing colour combo" in Toowoomba now :P)

jump over into the Toowoomba thread and say hi usually Chris Tom Clint 180Nick or myself are floating around in there somewhere.... U just missed our last cruise/pub lunch but we try and do stuff as often as we can, hopefully we'll see you at one in the not to distant future :thumbsup:

*if you see some dingbat give you a wave from a red charade that'll be me :)

Edit: hold up I've seen that car before along James/west steet usually runs a big drift wing, themoreyouknow lol

Cheers for the warm welcome bud. :) Look forward to chatting with you more soon.

Yep that wing is sitting in the shed at the moment, chews a lot of fuel. :(

    • 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...
