Hullo everyone

Still got the R32 and the R30. Sold the Senator and bought a Isusu ute to tow the trailer. Had the 30 out a few times but have decided to rewire it as most of the circuitry is not needed now.

Couple of things.

The arial on the GTR is broken where the rod screws in and I am having trouble sourcing a new one. Apparently they are made by AutoFlex in Germany, not for any particular model or type. Model number is 7 691 2700110001 Universal top 12v. I can get one from UK for $200 but has anyone got a better idea?

Next, I am thinking of a Haltech ECU for the 30. Been told a Platinum ProR32 or a Platinum Sport 2000 will be suitable after minor wiring mods. Any experience?

Lastly, anyone running Flex-Fuel and can you get it easy?

John

Hi John,

No........ No alternative. I did the same. $200 mask as it screws straight in. The exchange rate was a lot better when I bought mine but it was still $150.

The only other thing you can do is use that heat shrink stuff to secure the broken section.

These are the sort of things that i just "suck it up" and pay the money. I've long forgotten about the money but driving around with a busted aerial would do my head in!

Good luck.......

Bob.

Hey Bob et al'

One of my posts from early 2011 was just liked (thanks Vitalikea) which rejogs my mind about our initial chat on organising an ADM meet and cruise...unfortunately it will be geographically challenging for some ppl (sorry Ken) but I think we should still do this :)

My car has been off the road for a year and finally will be registered again next week (fist pumps in the air).

Absolutely......... I've been an advocate of this for ages.

What I would like to do now is start a chain of ADM owners who visit this thread.

I'll start - User Name - Real Name and Colour and Location.

1 - Aussie_Delivered_R32_GTR - Bob - Red Wine - North West Sydney.

Brad, I'll grab one mate. PM me your bank det's mate. I'll tfr from my Nigerian account, but really, shoot me a PM.

I'd love a cruise but alas, the gtr is sleeping and will be for a while.

3. Boywhocriedwolf (fkn ash), Ken-wine red mica-Sunshine Coast QLD.

The list looks like this so far......

1 - Aussie_Delivered_R32_GTR - Bob - Red Wine - North West Sydney.

2 - Marko R1 - Marko - Jet Silver - Inner West Sydney

3 - Boywhocriedwolf (fkn ash), Ken-wine red mica-Sunshine Coast QLD.

For the list

    • 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...
