So one of my white drift teks is cracked, is fixable but it wont ever be as strong as it should. Does anyone know where i can get just one Drift Tek in white, 17 x 9? Or who actually sells real drift teks anymore? i dont need a tire or anything.

Thanks

Go see Troy or Brenton at Adelaide tyrepower.

They can get the wheel, send it out to be powdercoated (doriteks dont come in white, only bronze/black/gold) and fit up tyres etc.

They'll do a good price on it too.

Yeah they were the first place that came to mind, i gave them a ring at like 10 past 12 on sat only to find they shut at 12. ill give them a ring tomorrow.

My mate who owned the lime green s13 "Midori" dealt with Troy when he got his rims, he was really helpful.

whats a good price on just one ill ring ART tomorrow and get a quote for one also for you

Well ART quoted me $300 plus powdercoating, so i guess anything less than that is a good price!

Left a message for Troy, spoke to his dad and he said he will call me back.

You'll be waiting a bit. Troy's pretty flat out most of the time. Ring Back and speak to him and it'll happen. You should get a better price than that.

      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!

      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...
