The thing is that it used to be in Winter ???? It was great, fast times at night etc but I think it was too cold for the girls who came dressed for the day and seemed to forget/didn't realise it would gt very cold at night....Also, it could have clashed with the Winternats....I would prefer a winter event personally.

Sheree, i loved your car;

saw it run a couple of times on sunday;

i dont usually go for that sort of paint job, but it looked awesome!

well done!

i also liked theo from street machines burn out effort;

we just went on the sunday, but had a great day in the sun on the hill with the missus watching the cars (and the ladies);

i got teh shits with the rotaries in the end (too many of em, too fast)

heh, good seeing the 4 door skyline bagging it up plenty also;

I think it was an Autech 4 door wasn't it?

I stood up and cheered after his fishy :mad: Was the only one tho... Pretty embarrassing :)

Spooks: Did you take the wrong turn off on the way there? I think I saw you up ahead of me on the way out along the Ipswich motorway then you turned off to Toowoomba... Was hoping to make a 4 Door convoy...

CONVOY!!! :)

hahah

yer, i did;

ive gone the wrong way the last couple of times :)

worked out ok though, coz that rx-7 prang held up the traffic and i came from the side through rosewood past amberly :) and skipped the traffic hold up

im sure i meant to do that!

Yes, thats right. Kier Wilson does have an OS Giken 3 Ltr kit and NO nos. I only no this because I spoke to him for a few minutes at the Jamboree.

And just to stir a few things up, I was also told that John (Munro)now uses NOS!

only saw one other SAU Skyline Australia shirt there on the day

i was wearing mine

Yea I got to the prang about 15 - 20 minutes after it happened so I didn't hold me up too long... Looked fairly serious unfortunately... :)

I was wearing my SAU T on Sunday... Long sleeve, dark blue? Nasty little 3 year old boy in tow?? Was probably me.

Didn't see any other SAU shirts myself tho...

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