When I was over (like 2001 lol) I was mainly skating with Igor, Tien, Ben and those guys... but met a lot of the other guys there to. Ian Brown was a champ.

If you see Tom say hi from Twisty, he was kind enough to let me crash at his place a few years ago and havn't talked to him in a long time.

Should real do another trip over East again now flights are so cheap.

Yeah man OG, I know that feeling... every time i see some kid 540 to a grind I feel like a true OG lol

lol @ metro fag... do a wheelie!

Hey Guys,

I was going to come to the North side dinner the other day to meet some of you guys (living in the northside myself), but shit hit the fan at work. Maybe the next one.

On a different note just wondering if there are any bladers around, who may be interested in a weekly/fortnightly meet for a bit of exercise (Sunday arvos possibly). I went to a path at Haberfield last week (Near the dog park there) and it was an awesome place to blade with nice smooth paths next to the water in the kanals there. ALso there was plenty of parking.

Being still new in town, if people have other spots in mind we can change destinations from time to time. I wouldn't recommend the Luna park side of Milson's Point as it was a pretty shit run, with board walk and more board walk, but Manly/Bondi should be good.

Anyway if you keen send me a pm with your email and we can do something this Sunday arvo (30th) say at 3pm.

hey Draen, if i lived in Sydney I'd be keen... I have my own blades and used to go a fair bit till I got lazy. I like the idea of flat smooth paths... not really into any fancy crap or tricks lol.. it's more for the fun & exercise :nyaanyaa:

I'm in Sydney a fair bit but stay down south and tend to get lost if I have to drive too far from there :yucky:

anyway good luck with it!

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

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      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...
