holy shit ando!!!!!

where the hell did 1.10 come from!!!!

well done dude!!!

glad to hear your car dramas weren't anything to do with an engine!!!

and clappa! man, pumping out the 1.12s! awesome dude!

any dramas for you??

chubb... how are you settling into the new car?!?!? bit different hey?? no dramas?

I wish i was there!

O hai... its Ando...

Yeah thats why i am not too fussed.. it drives okayish... lots of shudder and gaids brakes but overall should be a relative easy fix... Yeah happy with the time but a little disappointed as i know i can go quicker..

Just really confused as to what the problem is... think could be busted bearings, warped disc, stuffed caliper.. who knows.... will get it fixed same time as clutch issues :wub:

Chubbs says oh hai liz!! Settling okay, just a new driving style i need to learn... but i will get there xoxoxoxoxoxox

I had a wicked day, best fun I have had in a long time... at the track anyway... lol. :wub:

Although my day started out all optistimistic that the Drift Z would arrive and I would get to tangle with the 1 min 30 somethings... and maybe even torch a set of tyres at mid day. Seems that turn 5 ruined that... and I wasn't even driving... lol, good one GTR Jason.

But no, was great to catch up with people, and great to meet the newbies... and see everyone enjoying grass roots motorsport. I really did have a blast, and have new found motovation to drag the skyzer back out of the shed... might even try to get it going for the hugely anticipated Merli GTR Super car MK1 debut in a months time. :D

Nismo... My pleasure mate, I expect to see you back with new tyres and suspension for Oran Park... where I'll drag my money pit out to. ;)

Stay Sidewayz Kidz,

Dan.

And lastly David... just lift off a bit mate.. lift off... BRAKES... BRAKE... PUT YOUR FOOT ON THE BRAKE!

lol.... sorry about that mate! ...right after you said "let's see if we can NOT see anybody spin off the track in the first session" too!! :banana:

Anyhow.. your tips were worth gold. I knocked an easy 2 seconds of my previous PB on the same shitty road tyres I ran last year. Thanks for organising a top day out. The only thing that stopped me from going out for one last session was an almost empty tank of fuel... and maybe the dead front pads.

Can't wait till the next one. Hopefully I can finally get some semis on the car and knock a few more seconds off :)

      R32 GT-R: 4WD Light Turns On After Bumps – Code 19 (ETS Motor) But No Issues Found

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Look for broken wire or bad connector at the motor. Might not be it, but is worth starting there, as it is easy.

      R32 GT-R: 4WD Light Turns On After Bumps – Code 19 (ETS Motor) But No Issues Found

      By Bireley_32 · Posted

      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!

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      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...
