New and Final Departure Time is 6.30AM SHARP! You will need to be ready to go by 6.30AM, not refueling or buying drinks, but sitting in your car ready to go at 6.30AM!

We will be leaving from the Shell servo behind EPIC at the intersection of the Federal Hwy and Stirling Ave. Link...

If you have a 2-way radio then i suggest you bring it....

there is no servo on the road on the way to the track, well atleast the way that i am going. i dont go through town. there is a shortcut that is much quicker than detouring through Goulburn. There is a servo at Maccas but im not sure what kind or if it sells 98 ron fuel. im going to fill up at the shell meeting point (you get a free Ferrari key ring with any purchase of V Power over $20!) and then again in Goulburn around lunch time. this should be enough to get you home again if your not running big injectors....

I'm pretty sure there is a BP on the way to the track (well about 200m off the way I think Frink is going). When you get to the T section and normally turn right to go under the railway bridge, turn left instead and there is a BP Depot/pumps about 200m on RHS of road (see image)

Okay, I've done some research and found that it isn't a BP sign (although I could have sworn it was the BP green flower symbol) it is in fact a Caltex - They are closed on weekends but do have a 24hour (automated) service using your credit card and pin number. They have Vortex 95/96 RON.

Hello :P

Although I cannot attend the track day (I'll be working at the very fuel station you guys will be meeting at), would someone be willing to pick up a few interior parts for me?

Will pay for your troubles, you can even drop them off on your way back (Shell servo I work at)

Frink: If you really want those keyrings, i can get you a complete set for free :ninja:

Cheers!

Paul

      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...

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By GTSBoy · Posted

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