Dear jerk off(s)

who stole my front badge & snapped the keyhole one (on the boot) off thanx for making my nite! No longer is my Skyline one of the cleanest+tidiest examples around but rather damaged goods, violated & just not the same. If only I had the chance to walk out whilst u were doing the deed, idv had my way with u & not in a sexual way. Wat idv done to u, Australia definitly WOULD NOT be saying sorry...

PS After my cry any ideas where i can purchase sum replacement badges guys lol seriously :thumbsup:

Pretty sure the key badge cover & the lock barrel is one unit so, you'll have to swap the whole barrel over into the new one.

i gota car toys 1 for 20bucks the red looks the same as the day i got it.

ive only used the high pressure car wash hoses a few times on it though. usually do my car washing at home

bastards left a major scratch on my baby when they took mine, musta used a screwdriver or something.

when i was at nissan they qouted me 140 for a new 1 to which i was not too fond of, they said most of it was the shipping cost. but maybe they give different answers each day of the week with exchange rates ;)

my bros in japan at the moment so would anyone know where to get 1 near osaka?

o and i heard a few of the f*k wit lil 10yr olds at salisbury north skate park talking bout how they take badges from cars while i was sk8ing there. apparently your a big man if you've taken a bunch of em, i quickly let them know my disaproval for their bull sh*t and sent them home crying to mum

    • 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.
    • The filter only filters down to a specific size. Add to that, the filter is AFTER the pump. So it means everything starts breaking your pump even if its being filtered out.
