Well i live here in USA, so finding a wrecked Skyline anywhere here is as rare as finding one on the road. They dont keep Skyline parts here in stock so i wouldnt even know where to look over here. Im pickin up a GTS-T R32 so i was just curious to see if they had any available. So if the ones above wont fit a GTS-T, any ideas where to pick a set up?

lol on yahoo auctions in japan, all early model r32's came with em as I said and almost every single jap owner wants to get rid of it to go for the "GT ARu" look

here's another one...

This one's goin for 2500 yen which is about AU$33. The seller claims there's small cracks n stuff on it, and that they started out as orange ones, but they were since cleared.

That must mean there's a way to make em clear.

the little repeaters (square bulge on the side) are orange.
That's what came on the higher spec models from 1989-1991. After 1991 the same spec car got a full orange signal, and the lower spec one retained the clear with orange bulge.

cheers for that funkymonkey.

mines an early one with lots of factory options. i dont see many like mine around, probably cause others may have been changed to orange for the 'GTR look' that was mensioned earier

    • 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...
