Me too and I actually did win them!

Was a great event. Good times...

I didn't see anyone else from sau vic though?

Nice work winning the rims mate! They looked sweet, were they the RS ones? I priced up a set for my GT-R.

You're car looked/sounded good out there, came past the garage a couple of times but you (or anyone really) weren't around.

Advan RS's. Apparently worth $3000. They were evo offset so I'm going to get some here in melbourne. 9in with a desent offset.

Yeah sorry ben we were probably drooling over other cars... Car went great so didn't need to do much in the pits.

Yeah Russ you bugger! Winning those rims!

Couldnt believe it when they called your name!

The High Octane and Envy Imports girls made the day a little more exciting too :wub:

Did anyone else make a mess in their pants when seeing the new High Octane 34?

I saw you in Wodonga! Well, at least I think it was you! Looked like someone on their way home from Superlap!!!

Haha yeah Liz that was us. Chowing down on some noodles and subway on the way back. I remember seeing you drive past. Are you from Wodonga? We stopped and changes tow car at a mates place there.

am I from Wodonga? God no lol

from syds but i live in melbs but i had to take my car to NSW to get a pink slip... I was trying to get back on the freeway but got stuck in wodonga somehow!

there were so many damn cars on that freeway from cars being towed from the F1 weekend.

Oh. yeah our return trip was really crap but it was more to do with roadworks on the nsw leg.

Why don't you get vic reg. It's cheaper isn't it and you don't need to get a roadworthy every year.

I don't plan to be here for long and transferring rego for a year just seemed more painful than it was worth! Plus, because I have NSW plates, I won't have too much trouble with defects/EPA notices (not that i ever have had any trouble with them before). It has it's perks!

Ps. How'd you find Oran Park? It's my favourite track! love the dog leg round the back. I'm was doing 1.31 in my skyline.. and hadn't done it in my 180 yet.. .I got a fair bit of work to do! lol. I checked natsoft, there was someone lapping around at 1.12!!!!

    • 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.
