hi guys, sorry for the lack of updates. i have been overseas on holidays recently and only now getting back on top of things/email.

as you all know the trackday course is three weeks away. you should have all paid the balance / full amount by now, so i will post up the list of paid drivers (as confirmed with John Bowe Driving) in the next few days. you've only got a couple of weeks to do servicing, check all fluids, tires and pads, so please get on to this asap. you don't want to be doing that sort of stuff the night or morning before the event! hopefully no one has any problems at this point.

you should all have received a confirmation email and invoice/receipt from Dean at John Bowe Driving by now.

i just need to hear back from Red Back (sorry, i don't know his real name) and Chalon as to whether they have paid the balance and received their receipt from Dean at John Bowe Driving. if anyone knows how to get hold of them quickly to confirm, please let me know!

cheers

I dropped off my car at Manta on Monday with a LONG list of things to get fixed before this event. I dread the bill I am going to receive but I need my 4WD, ABS, PFC, intercooler, brake ducts and engine working properly plus a stack of other things. The rest can wait until after the big day. Hopefully the GTR will be ready and I won't have to take the Pug.

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

      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

      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...
