Me and matt (34gtt) are cruising down together (all fwy :(), anyone care to tag along??

Anyone entered?? You should, it's fun!!

I was about to suggest old PAC but a car loaded with fuel and tyres won't be much fun :( BUT I will be hitting it twice on Friday :D

Got me a cheap open face helmet today, head hits the roof of the car :( fail...

Yeah I had that problem with the helmet as well

All you can do is lay the seat back at bit or put up with it

Aww Martin! :(

Haha your not that tall are ya?!

Yeah won't be much fun :(

Twice?? What fir??

I'm more round than tall :P but nah, I'm only 6ft... But yeah I'll have to lay my seat back, not a fan

Of driving like like that but don't have a choice....

Old PAC early morning to go to JEM, then the return trip.... Bugger the F3 :P

Oh am

Nd question for you guys what tyres you taking to use on Sunday?

I'm taking 4 x 17s with new cheap shit Chinese tyres on them... An going to finish the ones on the car now too but leave enough for the drive home

man i must be lucky! i wear road bike helmets and its very been any sort of issue. i think im 175cms.

That 7cm is all I need.... Hmmm.... That's what my ex said :/

Bahahaha.... :P

yeah my head hits the roof too even with 32gtr seats

but we all know 33's are short

The 34 is pretty big inside, i guess i never thought about the extra space for a helmet though.... I well, maybe i can drive commo spec like Benji and lay the seat back.... :P

Sounds like some overnight parts from Japan are necessitated Raymond lol.....specificially Bride lowered seat rails for dat dere' extra headroom.

I had bride lowered seat rails connected to an amazing Recaro but had to give it up too pay bills :dry:

And who you calling Raymond punk? :domokun: lol

    • 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...
