Nice

Sure, I wonder how my Achilles tyres will go! lol

Haha that's alright, I got achilles too :unsure:

Don't give me that look cos I skimped on tyres! The buck had to stop somwhere you know!

So when you going to the drags to see what she'll run? ;)

Good question! Biggest killer will be traction, but I do have my eye on Powercrusie events ;)

What's new for the GS? We should get a photoshoot of the two cars together! :O

;)

Bags all 'round. Ended up going supercharger and happily sitting on 400rwkw @ 10psi with close to 1200N/m of torque :cheers:

For the charger, injectors, fuel pump, fitting + tune worked out to be about $12k. Camshaft, valve springs, pushrods etc. was about $3k.

Sounds good :)

I am sure you are happy with that!

haha yeh those powercruise events look kinda fun.

probably an exhaust for a bit of noise at some point, and then some new rims.. although I'm trying to buy house as well so can't just splurge out too much cash :(

I'm down once I get some decent rims on!

Harrop want $20k for charger etc, 440rwkw

Sheesh, that's a bit rich! I'm guessing for that price, they're including all the bits needed to go from stock to 440rwkw (eg. extractors, cats, catback)?

Having said that, my tuner managed to secure a really good deal from Harrop on the supercharger and fuel pump, cos he promotes and deals with a lot of Harrop equipment.

Sounds good :)

I am sure you are happy with that!

Yep, loving it! But still wanting to get back into a RB though (R33 GTR) :(

Noice! Didn't you already have the Varstoens/TE37s?

Yeah think it's the full package... It'd wanna be

Yeah I did but they're sold, rocking on stockies lately lol

Bummer! Looked great with the Varrstoens!

What rims you looking at getting now? Concave or dish?

Yeah think it's the full package... It'd wanna be

Yeah, at that price you'd want it to be hahaha

Not sure, would love some meisters or similar (far too expensive though), bit of dish always cool but been eyeing off some concave..

Something like these I've been looking at.. don't look the best in the pics but on the car look decent I think

    • 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...
