How did you find the fit of the rear over fenders? I've bought these from Viva already, wondering how much extra work is in yours thanks.

Well we haven't moulded them on yet, but they seemed to line up pretty good, the only thing extra we are doing is a bit of trimming to stop sideskirts hitting (not viva's issue), and extend the fibreglass that goes around the fuel cap, if u know what im talking about.

what are you gunna have to do to get the rear wheels under and fitting nicely? do the fronts have any scrub issues?

loving the build mate!

as soon as im back in australia after my stint in london im keen to start a build..

the hardest bit is deciding what car to start with. s13 or 14, 32 or 33, or just buy a gtr and tidy it up. argh!!

good luck mate.

cheers adam

hey mate, prob just a bit of camber, the rims will still stick out a little but thats what im going for. we had a little bit of scrubbing on the front bar from the front tyres but thats all sorted now, just had to push the bar a little forward.

If i was picking out of those 4 cars, obviously i went the 32 first, my next build is going to be a 34. but if not i would go an s14. Good luck!

rear guards are trimmed, over fenders refitted and drove it about 15km to the painters place, now just paint to go for the body, then new coilovers, camber arms and toe arms cheers.gif

hey jum its your old mate damo cars looking good man love the stretch tuff as hell give me a yell when its done and you goin to eastern creek ill try to be there should look mint when its done may have something by then to give you a run

    • 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...
