all the fab work and aero looks great. can see many many hours in there.

Cant wait to re-wire my car... it will be a good feeling when yours is done.

Thanks mate, the man hours in fab work add up real quick when it comes to one off custom parts... But the end result is worth the effort and cost!

The wiring was a disaster! Looking forward to having it all neat and tidy, the idea is to spend the money on it now and hopefully keep any electrical gremlins away for the future!

wow awesome build, subscribed

Thanks mate...

Some updates were posted half hour ago on Vacy Smash Repairs FB page - https://www.facebook.com/pages/Vacy-Smash-Repairs/303873696482857

These pics show the interior painted. head over to their page and give it a like for more updates.

Nice updates, looking forward to testing and your impressions :)

Me too mate! I am sure testing will have some hiccups as so much is new, but it is all part of the fun!

agreed... awesome vision and build. Great to see such good quality

well done keep pushing hard and just take a photo of the smile on your face once you've had the first drive and everything goes to plan !

Just the original white...

Call me Mr Original... lol

I plan on keeping the whole car looking plain as a GTT/R should look.

I will be keeping stickers/logos to a minimum, however the companies that have supported me so far will also have a say in this.

Yes I have a say in it [emoji322]

These last few pages..... Wow!

The changes have taken me quite a while, i was just a bit busy and didnt get around to doing updates for a long time :) I underestimated the amount of work it would take by quite a bit lol

Thanks mate! That day is coming very soon...

Interior is painted, exterior will all be done tomorrow!

Lol no you dont, Shh :P

Need to sort your right foot out first hahaha

Its the left foot i have issues with, sprained ankle to be precise lol

Throttle control is not an issue, sticky tyres masked this problem!

Looks spiffy in white. You'll need to wear sunglasses :)

Any half decent build takes time and I don't reckon many average-Joes can set realistic time frames and hit the initial completion target. This thing should be worth the wait though.

Yeah even in the booth it was very bright! I am assuming once the dash and seat etc are back in it should cover some of the brightness but it sure looks better then it did a few weeks ago!

The team at Vacy Smash Repairs are doing an amazing job, cant thank them enough for everything so far!

Always ssh over here

It is currently getting wiring done and will be on track soon!

    • 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...
