I will keep an eye on any beers (if its an open invite :) )

My car is off to Nathan @ Newcastle Dyno tomorrow for a tune and boost controller! Not expecting numbers much different than standard but hoping to get a mid range improvement.

Get mine back from Nathan tommorrow, am so looking forward to it, 2 weeks without it. Had a few issues that he's now fixed and also set the boost controller. Will post how it drives tomorrow. :woot:

When are yous guys going to have another R chassis circle jerk again....i mean meet/cruise and make all of us other people in "not real skylines" and other models feel singled out and unwelcome?

Because im keen for that sh*t!

Then set a time and place and see who turns up

Or get over yourself and stop holding a grudge

Hey all, just moved to newcastle ad i am after a decent auto-elec. If anyone has any recommendations and/or warnings that would be great, cheers.

Hi

What work do you need done?

Can't really recommend anyone apart from Nathan at Newcastle Dyno but if its a simple thing I'm sure someone knows how to do it

My power windows in my R32 are not working after an RB25 swap. I have tried fixing them but haven't got anywhere. Also my dash cluster is not working.

hey guys, havent been on in a while. garage should be started to be built on Saturday if martin ever delivers my stuff! :)

Awesome news mate! Mine is slowly getting setup too -

Looks good matt.

where and how much are those shelving worth? ive got some crappy wooden ones in mine atm that were there when i bought it.. want to clean it up and minismise the amount of shevling for more room.

also would really like to install a door onit as it only has the 3 roller doors atm..

Ummm you can get them from Office City over near Islington i think it is... Can get all shapes and sizes! They have an ebay store too which actually lists a lot of the pricing!

Will be a power wire not hooked up somewhere then

You can try tracing it yourself or ring around the lecos and see who sounds good

I really hope it is, as its a 5 minute fix, but i pretty sure its not. I have spent 3-4 hours tracing wires to try and find it and got nowhere.

    • 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.
    • The filter only filters down to a specific size. Add to that, the filter is AFTER the pump. So it means everything starts breaking your pump even if its being filtered out.
    • Just like in being 14mm too small (296mm) makes it not fit, being 14mm too big (324mm) it also won't fit. You want to find the correct rotor.
    • @GTSBoy Ok so that was the shops problem...they showed R33 rotors on R34 page and i did not know 296 do not fit(and are for R33) Yes i bought "kit" with rotors and pads. Pads are ok(i have GTT calipers front and rear). They have some 324mm but no 310mm. So i dont know if they would fit. I have 17inch LMGT4s So another question. Can i fit those in the rear or they are just "too" big for that?
