Toggle switch for the relay on the PS2 power supply:

And for those that wondering how hard it is to install, here are the tools I have used:

4228_79530181187_663326187_1952379_47130_n.jpg

Flat Blade, Phillips head, Pinchers, Knife, 10mm Ratchet spanner, Dynamat Roller, Duct tape and 10mm Socket.

Pincher are the best tool for removing all the loom clips from the body.

Next step: Getting all the interior back in minus the boot.

That is such a shame, Nigel. I saw the photos of the car after the crash on FB, but didn't realise you'd put THAT much work into the interior already. Is all the Dynamat and whatever else you'd done so far covered under insurance?

pretty sure this project was all a waste of time, considering the car is due to be written off after an accident friday night

Spewin! Sorry to here that mate, I was lookin forward to watching the progress. Hope insurance can sort it out for ya.

There is still a chance it wont be written off yet.

Will find out the outcome tomorrow hopefully.

And yes, Dynamat is a labour of love, I've spent over 38 hours installing it, and it is a one use application.

There is still a chance it wont be written off yet.

fingers are crossed for you nige.sorry to hear mate.you can come over and install that stereo in my stag if you need something to take your mind off the accident...

    • 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.
