Looks nice like that, i would spend my money on brakes or handling or performance.

carbon fibre bonnett? Defect

lower car? scrapes on speedhumps and steep driveways and effects handling

front bumper of front lip?? I smashed my 400R on a driveway(gone back to stock)

Just my 2 cents.

some nismo clear side indicators? only like 80 bucks but i would spray the outer section white instead of leavin it black like a majority of ppl.

if ya going for styling looks (obviously cause u put it in this section lol) how bout some interior stuff?

how are ur wipers looking? mine looked a lil worse for wear so i sprayed em a matte black. made the front look a lil newer. but i guess only to me as i was the only one that knew i did it. lil things like that i like doing to brighten the car up a bit. anyway im rambling.

just have a close look around ur car and things u might wanna change, write them down and think of a way to do it. even the smallest things changed can make u feel better about the looks of ur car

yeh i was thinking the exact same thing the other day mate, was looking at my wipers and was thnking that they need a touch up hey. looking a bit worse for wear,. but yeh i guess i would be the only one that would notice it but would look better to me as im everyday noticing it.

clear indicators one step a head of ya hey haha waiting for them to arrive in the mail. yeh thats a good idea about spraying white,will keep that in mind for sure thanks mate.

another thing i did (but failed lol) was spray the rubbers around the windows. saned a few bits, taped it all up and sprayed fine. next day car was in sun for a while and all parts i didnt sand properly had gone wet again cause it didnt grab properly :) the B pillar garnish looks alot better though. will have to do a proper job. just used the same stuff as i did the wipers with.

so check over your car for bits that could use a touch up with some paint and give it a go.

cliff, like above, just get an orange LED. looks nice. and with the painting of the outside, id say mask off light area and could find some close matching spray paint. havent seen any done yet so might look a bit diff :D

    • 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...
