Now that I'm likely to finally get my car in the next week or so - who is interested in arranging a Melbourne V35 meet in the next few weeks?

Most of the people here are from WA or NSW. I only know of one other person in Melbourne, being Rianto...

Put yourself down if interested!

Now I'm peeved - I can't get a "risky" registration appointment until Tuesday :D... will have to miss the East-West meet.

But still keen to have a V35 one in the very near future. Maybe a nice photoshoot along the beach.

It's not risky because it's stock or not... VicRoads require all imports being registered for the first time to go through the full inspection.

Same in NSW, it take about 30 minutes to do the inspection and 2 hours waiting outside the workshop and 2 week to booking that. WTF........................

Lets make them aware!

Now that I'm registered, and Rianto is getting his done next week, let's say we make a date for this Melbourne meet? I actually like the Chaddy to Albert Part setup - does anyone have any other suggestions?

Must say, I'm loving the attention the V35 gets at the moment. I'm not looking forward to the day when they are as common as the R33...

Don't worry yet Max, it'll probably another couple of years before R34 become as common as R33 now, and then the V35 would follow suit in another few years after that, so take that about 5 years ? :)

plenty of time for cruises till then :ermm:

    • 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...
