Morning mang

Im guessing here, but i reckon the 88/88/80 is the amount of dish, and the 51/39/31 probably has something to do with how much brake clearance you get...

EDIT: Or possibly the other way round...

Cool thanx :)

It's still 5.7L's of pushrod shit.... If you'd want a v config motor that's kinda unique go the vq30det. 210kw's and 386 Nm @3600 rpm from factory :)

Such hate for the LS1s I never understand. Old donkey tech but it works well and it's pretty well packaged for what you get.

Can someone please look at this picture and tell me what the highlighted areas represent?

the A B C numbers refer to the disc type of the wheel which is related to brake clearance and the 88 88 80 refers to the amount of dish.

No tractors, no emos, no SAUQLD peeps, no boats and no gabnrs :(

Just a croat and some etcs. f*cking weak effort guys :D

Right the first way round.

I'll never understand how someone can rate an old oil burning, pushrod piece of shit that feels like it has turbo lag despite being a v8 (seriously drive an early model VT one) yet bag an SR

I bag SRs cause I know you guys like em ldo. Driven later modeled ones and they didn't feel laggy to me. I haven't driven many other v8s other than dads xr8 and a couple of dirty commodores but they didn't feel that much different. Dad's is a quad cam 32 valve v8 and it's a bit weird. It never feels like it's really going until you're up around 3500-4000rpm which I think is weird for an 8 but it still pulls hard.

I think the positives outweigh the negatives for the LS1 it's a pity they've never put it in a decent car. Opinions differ on this point obviously but meh.

I only bag the SRs coz I secretly like them :)

IF (and I stress the IF) I was going to put a 4 banger into something, it would either be an SR or FJ.

It's always about engine size with you boys :(

Boys and their donks...

If i was going to V8 anything and i couldnt afford a BMW S62 from a M5 i would have to use a 1UZFE, 6 bolt mains FTW

+1. VH45s are also nice if you want to keep it nissan

    • The speedo's can be very conservative, when my Mazda NC MX5 speedo is showing 118kph, the GPS, and a calibrated radar.... cop mate.....hits me at around 110kph +/- 1 or 2 kph, and that is on a 215/45 17, stock tyres size is 205/45 17 as well, so weirdly conservative with stock tyre size When my Commodore speedo red 116kph GPS had me at 110kph After doing some offset and clearance measurements to see what can fit the NC on 17x8 +40, without guard rolling or rubbing anything at my current ride height, I've decided that when my tyres are toast, I'm going to fit 225/45 17 and see where that gets me IRT actual speed of my speedo and GPS/radar From the online calculator I should be still be doing around 5kph under an actual 110kph when the speedo is showing 110kph My ADHD requires that when I'm doing 110kph on the speedo, that the actual road speed is actually really close to that, and not alot slower And going from 205 to 225 still keeps the car within the %/mm allowable in the NSW vehicle rules and regulations, which is nice, as long as I'm looking at the latest version that is.....LOL https://www.nsw.gov.au/sites/default/files/2021-02/RMS-13.464-Light-vehicle-modifications-Vehicle-Standards-Information-No-6-November-2013.pdf
    • Take the value it measured as, and pick the closest range available that is above the reading on the screen.   Also, no point just testing the coils. Read what has been said again. You need to test all your wiring, everything.
    • Does the scanner do all the CUs in the car, or only the ECU?
    • @666DAN sorry to bring you and old thread.     I've got my de+t done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.    Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd when selected . But nothing when in  drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic. I'm sure there is maybe 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Do ya have any ideas?     Cheers man
    • Well I recently changed my rear axles and was thinking if I bumped anything, I have been driving the car for a while now though... But it has been raining today so everything is wet under the wheel arches. Brakes feel fine and can't hear any of the metal screamers, I had a squeak coming from one of the handbrake drums but that seems to have gone away a while ago. I was going down a hill when it lit up and I did feel the abs bite for a second and question why it did it?
