I have had better days thats for sure... i changed a lot in my rear suspension AND i changed ,y diff ratio from a 4.3 to a 4.1 and the car is just shit now... so laggy. i managed to adapt to the suspension changes... makes it harder to drive but theres a lot of grip there... now i just need to change the diff back to a 4.3.

was def having an off night... made so many mistakes and miss shifts. i was pretty pissed off with myself but then i remembered drift is suppose to be enjoyable lol. Hayden and i had a couple of close runs but he had a lot of drama with rear grip also... a total lack of it!

lol wow, you looked awesome out there to me simon, think your a little hard on yourself, although i only saw turn 1 and 2 and didnt see you miss a beat there.

Everyone else did well too, matty definately improving. Brenton had some nice slides going on, what size is your gate brenton? cause my god your car screams!

Well done to all out there and ill hopefully join ya's back out there in march.

No ext. gate.

AM Perforance Screamer pipe.

:yes:

I want one too.

And by f**k I want to get out there. Sick of the 31 being in the shed.

I may have some on the other 'pile' i was just being fussy what i uploaded :S

Never shot in low sunlight with this camera so my settings were way off, heaps of photos turned out over/under-exposed or just blurry and plus i was getting sprayed with smoke, dust, rubber lol

Ill have top check through the rest of the photos..

or random people spinning in front of you so they can come and say hi :)

wait wait... brentons car screams?? what bout mine hahaha

yeah AM performance exhaust FTW!!

Havent heard your car simon. Been staying away from drift pracs etc. because it depresses me too much not being out there :laughing-smiley-014:

yes simon, your car screams, but we are used to that :D

brentons has just grown some balls and a voice since last time i heard it lol.

oh by the way simon, i was one of the guys that came upto you before you pulled out of your pit at the end of the night, one of the 2 telling you about the cops, i was in the nissan jacket.

Well there was a cop giving a bit of trouble to some people, was talking to a guy in a green rotor - was on trade plates, the cop stopped him n gave him a bit of grief, threatened him a bit, so he came back in and stayed for a bit longer.

Heard 1 car got defected earlier in the evening just before drifts ended, but thats about all

    • 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...
