bit of a sore point for many people i reckon, we are not a communist nation.... why filter the info that we recieve?

Because the Australian Government always believe they know better and the Australian people are too lazy to get angry and fight for their rights. Sad but true...Australia : The Nanny State.. I just hope senator conjob gets his plan defeated.... I know enough about the internet to get around any filter but the same can't be said for others. Information is power and that scares the hell out of the Govt, thats why they masquerade the 'secret' list under the pretense of blocking child porn - not least so that any one who questions it is implied to be 'soft' on child porn - a disingenuous argument if there ever was one...

dummy mounted my new turbo and manifold onto the engine today, i have a feeling im going to have chassis clearance issues

for shits and giggles we flipped the manifold over, for "high mount"

lol

fook. i didnt even think of that. i was too busy perving on her to think about taking photos of her...

... well, i was thinking of taking photos of her, but well, you know, they wouldnt be forum friendly.

Steve, she was a Barbie doll, didn't think much of the face but then again, with the rest of the package, who needs it :P

In all seriousness there was some nice talent out and about today, both cars and girls :)

just you. youve played around with the formatting me thinks. steve knows how to fix it i reckon.

and youre right heslo, there was some serious f**kin talent out... joisus. worth going just for that.

speaking of joisus...

... he exists, and he races in a ford ute, dont f**k with him, he'll mess your shit up.

seriously, he was sitting behind a holden ute coming into the hairpin, and the holden threw a leg out of bed, devine intervention man...

see if you can view this thread, some of the boys are organising a weekend somewhere it seems :)

yeah looks good Matty but don't know how comfy the Patrol boys would be having a 200 around..........lol, it won't matter whether I can keep up with them or run rings around them, the fact that it's a 200 will get me flamage.

EDIT: Not to mention that I'm still running the factory Dunlop Grandtreks (crapiest tyre ever designed for a 4WD). Need to put some M/T ATZ's on there but I'd be looking at almost 1/2 grand a corner :P

lol, you and i appear to have the same problem, pete. :P

    • 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...
    • 310mm rotors will be avilable from Australia, Japan, and probably a few other places. Nothing for the front can be put on the back.
