Hi Mate

I would like to share my findings, after i pulled my motor apart last month.

First off i should tell you the specs of the motor.

1. it has a built the block, has arp main studs, N1 oil and water pump, Eagle rods with wisco pistons, Bore 1mm over (87mm bore) ,6boost top mount manifold (t3) ,44 tial waste gate, AMS GT950R turbo, power fc, Custom intake with top mount fuel rail, 100mm tb, FMIC, external fuel pump, External fuel regulator, 800cc Sard injectors, Stock rebuilt head, MLS head gasket, ARP head studs.

After opening up the motor the first thing i noticed was damaged pistons, it looks to be like detanation, But this could be because i used a 86mm MLS head gasket on a bored block. Stock bore size is 86mm and i bored it to 87mm,but used a 86mm bore gasket ,opp's second misstake. Next was the crank collar was the short one, but it was still in good shape, next i had no oil restrictors in the block. Next i never installed a head oil return, and other that running 25psi on pump gas. Thats all i found that was wrong with the car. Well for most part the pistons were really bad and it caused the head to get damaged, cause peace piston ring broke off and hit the head.Plus the head looked like it had small hole in the parts that were in the combustion chamber. so again i think that was detanation.

The biggest thing i feel that cause or even aided the damage was the gasket. A 1mm peace of gasket like a round ring (looks like a piston ring 1mm round) fell in the combustion chamber. I feel this would have aided the detanation process. These small amounts of gasket can cause hot spots causeing preignition or detination. ???????

Well on my new motor (build 2 of them) Has all these things rectified.

If you would like to see the new setup check the link out mate.

its not much, but i do my own work. This is one of the 2 motors that i'm building.

cheers

      R32 GT-R: 4WD Light Turns On After Bumps – Code 19 (ETS Motor) But No Issues Found

      Look for broken wire or bad connector at the motor. Might not be it, but is worth starting there, as it is easy.

      R32 GT-R: 4WD Light Turns On After Bumps – Code 19 (ETS Motor) But No Issues Found

      By Bireley_32 · Posted

      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!

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      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...
