You pair have nothing

You want a long cruise head out through cessnock to broke then take Charlie's road across to putty rd the head out the golden hwy to sandy hollow and turn onto Bylong Valkey way which goes back to Richmond then a short hop to Windsor and back up putty road to singleton and home

that doesnt look too bad, but looks to actually be a shorter route!

The Putty run we did a few years back was a long day, we did Old Pac, Galston Gorge, Windsor and then Putty Rd through to Singleton..... It was a 2 fuel stop trip on that run..... On that note, how far is that drive in KM? And have you mapped out fuel stops? (Taking into account that ill only make <300kms to a tank lol

ful trip is 650kms... you would have to see where to get your fuel from.

I will bring a spare bottom end, ill have to change that out when u guys fix what u break :ph34r:

Good plan! Anyone got a 2 poster they can bring?

I fuelled up in Sydney and then again in Singleton on our run.....

But my flex fuel is back on now so i can run whatever, not an issue :) Just have to run low boost with normal pump fuel :( Only 19psi lol

may need to plan this one for winter so its easier on the cars haha..

Yeah plus cooler = more wasps! And if the car bursts into flames we can all sit around the campfire and inhale the E85 goodness!

so the bad news for this week. according to my mechanic my crank shaft is f*cked an my easiest and cheapest way out is an engine swap. honestly i hate my life.

anyone know of any dirt cheap r33 rb25de motors kicking around?

Is the head still good?

If its a DE as you say then any VL bottom end with a light hone, new rings and bearings and your head fitted should do nicely

You need to fit an idler pulley for the belt return and I think that's it

Best bet is to do a search on here as there is a heap of info around just have to find it

As far as legalities go I'm not sure but if original engine number then no capacity increase

Sell car and get a PULSAR VZ-R N1. Iron chef has one up for sale. SR16VE N1 Engine.... stock 200hp, 1090kg and 6.8 secs 0-100

Put on a full exhaust, apexi power FC, splitfire super direct ignition,etc and youll have around 300hp at the flywheel and 0-100 in 5 second territory.

Face palm :no:

f**k that sucks man. wonder how much it'll cost to how much you could sell it for.

N/A engines should be cheap and pretty easy to get ahold of man!

    • 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...
