not with the amount of money that's been thrown at it, it won't. At the end of the day, it's still a Dayz with 135000km on it.... But you don't modify to improve value, and I love it dearly...

What are series 1's selling for these days in Japan?

About 15% more this week than it was last week! (FOB anyway)

Micah, I will give you 12 and a half mate :)

(probably the replacement value of your front brakes truth be known)

:P

Where are you getting complied? And how long all up will it be from payment date to pick up (assuming 2 weeks to comply and register!)???

I ask b/c I have put my money down on my S2 just over one week ago and I'm trying to figure out an approximate "baby come home" date!!!

Mine may take a little longer as I have to register it in NSW... as I live just over the border...

I live in Coffs, so getting it trucked down after compliance. She's getting complied at Shogun (also known as something else.... can't remember now) and it should be about 12 weeks from when I made the first payment to getting it delivered..... can depend a bit on when ships are leaving etc.

Well, it's taken freakin ages, but supposedly my Stag is getting delivered today! It's been at compliance for ~4 weeks.... not their fault, dotars just took that long to get the paperwork back. Probably won't be able to get it blue slipped today, but hopefully on monday! For anyone elses interest, I paid for the car on the 18th of July, so it's taken about 3 months in total......

Sound's about right with the 3 month total time, although 4 weeks for paperwork would have been a painful wait as it was max 10days with both cars i've brought in....bet you cant wait to just get in it now???? lol

yeah, dotars has been a big hold up recently..

my car, along with 18 others was at the compliance yard for about 2 months waiting for approval.

I reckon you got a bloody good deal there- all that $$ you saved can go on a few cosmetic mods.

and.. the wait is all but over - oh I was sooo apprehensive when I saw the car for the first time as I thought - I am going to do my freaking naaanaa if anything has been damaged on it.

      R32 GT-R: 4WD Light Turns On After Bumps – Code 19 (ETS Motor) But No Issues Found

      Look for broken wire or bad connector at the motor. Might not be it, but is worth starting there, as it is easy.

      R32 GT-R: 4WD Light Turns On After Bumps – Code 19 (ETS Motor) But No Issues Found

      By Bireley_32 · Posted

      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!

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      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...
