So iv'e managed to sell my 33. Well it didn't really take long but long story short I needed a bigger car for work and family. I am most likely picking up a stag tomorrow and as any typical guy am already looking at what mods to use and who to talk to.

I'm sure there's a stagea thread on here so anyone got any directions?

Oh and yes i feel bad for selling the line but at least I haven't strayed to far from the pack. lol

Cheers

Kane

http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/Bu...n-C-t92065.html buyers guide. . ..

when inspecting look for the rust spots, door mirrors is common they all have it, some are fixed some are not. but if you look in the first link and find my topic on strut tower rust, you'll see the drama's im having atm. BUT there was no sign of the rust 1 year ago when i inspected it.

good luck.

I don't give a shit whether you buy mine or not, but have a look at it as a template for mods :devil:

They need the standard RB 100k service upon purchase, they NEED good pads, tyres, shocks and alignment bushes, the springs and swaybars are an optional mods, but the others are a maintenance item. Radiator reco is a peice of mind thing.

Full exhaust saves fuel and makes it go better, same with FMIC.

Will add more after dinner.

If you are interested in making an offer on mine, feel free, if you have stagea questions, I will answer them whether you are interested in mine or not, here or in the stagea section.

find that hard to believe, im lucky to see 400 out of a full tank, standard exhaust i was getting a minimum 400 once ran it till 450-60

interesting... my freeway fuel consumption improved massively when i did dump/front/cat, also helped around town.

have you done your cat? and done plugs lately?

    • 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...
