yea the only problem is i need to take out the whole stem, which will require the wheel and tyre to come off. bit of a pain in the ass! so might not get around to doing that for a while unfortunately.

the yellows go together really well.

ah to easy mate, will catch up in the new year sometime.

yea i dont know, will turn out pretty shit i think, or i will get paint on my wheels etc..

see what happens, i may be able to get ones soon then get them fitted when the sway bars go on.

How'd you go with the swaybars man?

haha, thanks but no thanks jarrad! have done all this effort for the wheels, not going to finish it off with dogey painted valves, which i would have to take off the wheel anyways to do a decent job ha.

was very nervous putting the stickers on yesterday, nearly stuffed the first one up. in the end did a pretty good job i think. would be much easier with the wheels off to do that aswell.

good mate, they are sitting in at bowers, my car is booked to get them fitted there first week in jan. very keen!

Awesome! You will be happy with the way she handles after that!!!

yea we will go for a run somewhere!

will pass around details closer to the date, but looking at the forth of jan at this stage.

Hmmmm MAY be around for that! Is this going to be a hush hush cruise? :woot:

    • 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...
