First up, what a fantastic evening. It was great to see that the rain didn't dampen anyone's spirits and everyone enjoyed themselves regardless.

I'd like to give a big thank you to all the Members. You guys (and girls) are the reason why the club what it is today. We are growing year on year and it's encouraging that we have so many new members who have joined.

I would also like to extend my thanks to the Exec committee and to our Sponsors.

Big thanks to Noel for being the driving force behind the event along with basically every other event this past year. Without the Silver Fox's efforts, this year would have been very boring!

As a club we are in a very stable financial position with the help of Boz and his willingness not to spend anything...

Also thanks goes out to Tim, Andy and Clint for their help throughout the year. (Sorry Andy and Clint, I didn't get a pics of you )

Without the help from Mr Benno, we wouldn't have nice things like web pages and the forum.

Also a big thanks goes out to Dan. The phrase everyone knows, 'Dan Built'.

Thanks goes to Joe for his efforts on organising cruises and happy laps.

Chris is a man that everyone knows. He is the best option when it comes to keeping our cars safe. Without him, we wouldn't have the number of cars in the club as we do today.

I would also like to thank Dion for his efforts in handling the mammoth task of our Membership needs. Since taking over the roll, things have started moving smoothly.

Thanks goes out to Paul for giving us access to his Championship rounds. Many of us live out our childhood dreams of being race car drivers by participating in his track days.

Also like to thank our latest sponsor Dave. He's the man who took the pics of all the cars lined up on the grid at the Charity Cruise. He also does car photoshoots.

Merry Christmas Everyone!

    • 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...
    • 310mm rotors will be avilable from Australia, Japan, and probably a few other places. Nothing for the front can be put on the back.
