What kind of license do you need to race at jambo? i'm guessing it depends what category you fit into? I'd love to enter this year but the 32 is gonna be a run in stage and i'd get murdered if I decided to do full power run's on a 500km old engine.

Civil licence is enough depending on how fast you plan to go...11's require a super street licence and anything faster requires a full drag licence.

500K's is heaps mate...i ran 9's on my engine with about that on it. Modern piston and ring technology is far superior than the days of huge run-ins and babying for 1000's of k's is long gone.

Jason there may be an oportunity to test prior at a private hire im attending...ill let you know if its possible for you to come.

Birrong Automotive will be there with OOH-30T.

Alex, you just say the word and we'll put the new car in the studio. Raf's Supra comes out in a couple of issues time.

I may be racing a 700hp GTST but no guarantees. At the very least I'll be there for work.

Cheers Gary...will see you there.

Booked flights today to come up for a test session on the 19th to get the car dialed in. Big thanks to Dazmo who will be giving me some transport and crewing for me that day. Hope i can reward him by running some good numbers.

    • 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...
