i was always taught that if you have nothing nice to say ..... say nothing at all :D my mate just had a car done there by shaun and hes had nothing but troubles, not saying there a bad shop just that the one person i know thats been there had big troubles, but cheers for the suggestion

Do you mean register the car, or register the engine conversion? Took mine through Regency 2 weeks ago to register the RB25 in it, got my certificate of exemption/modification today.

+1 for Shaun, despite your mate. He had my car in and out within few days and been purring since - that's a good year ago! Luck with it.

Dec's does a great job with wiring. he works in the same principle as i do, everything must look and work as factory.

I got your msg mate i'll be down next week to come and do it some time. just got to work out when im free :D

cheers mate i got your msg ill see you tuesday :thumbsup:

get after market ecu then anyone can do it, i used microtech when i changed from rb20 to 25 thats when JMS were the old JMS. much better scope of changes when u use after market puter.

ive got a mines ecu tuned for the mods ive got so far so that will do for now

amd yeah evryone has been saying simons work is great so im happy :D

  • 3 weeks later...

just a quick update, simon did a great job it looks factory and works like factory and it was running and registered by the end of that week. ( next engine swap i do ill be calling simon for sure )

    • 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...
