Gah... actually seems to be more and more commos going lately. Makes me a sad panda :w00t:

Drift certainly does happen. Last time was front left strut seal broke pissing out oil and cracked front bar ;)

hahahaha we can be sad pandas t0gether haha

ehh to be honest.. it kinda makes me cranky when noobs take their commodores out.. coz then we have to wait for them to get their huge anchor towed out of the kitten litter!! which is less track time for me.. which sucks cause i cough up 80 bucks every night and im a damn stinge haha

YAY for hopeing the 25 is ready

FINGERS ARE CROSSED TIGHTER THAN A FISHES ASS

loom goes away monday get it back thursday

bolt 25 in

tune friday

other crap

friday nite dwift dwift :nyaanyaa:

Any other time I would but I'm bringing several people with me Friday for passenger runs so won't really have time for taking out more people :D I say that now but they are the type who may very well change their minds about going an hour b4 the planned leaving time. See what happens.

I'm taking out my video camera Friday.

Lol. Yeap, that kind of mate :down:

Hopefully by the time I get there I get my usual bay 2nd from the entrance (would be the first one but it doesnt have a light). Might have to do the old mr bean parking if someones taken it :)

    • 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...
