Last Saturday I’ve tested the latest tune from Martin and new brake pads.

I have to say that the Willall tune worked very well. I’ve run the car at Eastern Creek trying to chase time set by LSX-438 (without luck). The tune significantly improved outright performance but at the same time allowed much more throttle control which was lucking in my previous tune. Now I can overcome understeer with throttle without the car attempting to swap ends. Thanks Martin

The MX-72 on the other hand where just OK. Better than stock, no brake fade at all, but the feel was similar to the OEM pads. No noise at all so far. These pads will be fine for road use with occasional track day. It you planning on spending more time on the track you may have to invest in better pads.

I have the new Willall COBB tune as well & it is great. I tracked my R35 today (while I was waiting for my R33 to cool)

& am still finding the standard pads working well (I only do 4-5 flying laps a time) although I am sure it is just a matter

of time till I will need to upgrade them.

I am getting used to a new set of 360mm 6 spot Alcons on the R33 & was amazed how good the R35 pulls up compared

to that. R35 are amazing cars. Drove it out there. Never touched a thing. Has 11000km std Bridgestones. Am only .8 second

behind my race car!!! ( so far - race GTR has lots of sorting)

Good to hear you had success with running our new track tuning strategy Marek. Keeping the GTR chassis balanced at partial throttle is one of the keys to getting these cars to run both quick and consistent at the track, this and keeping boost all the way to redline (for good trap speeds and overtaking power) are the keys to improved lap times :banana:

What other secrets were in the Willall R35 Martin?

Keir did a mighty quick time in the above result.

I have a lot of catching up to do!

Damn money tree...grow grow lol

No real secrets Dan, and suprisingly few mods....

Having said that we are going out again on November 6 and will be reasonably disappointed if we dont bring home a 1:14.XX

I think...with some development....there are 1:13 laps in these cars at Mallala. Time will tell :cool:

    • 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...
