Hey ive just purchased a 2003 v35 coupe auto with 80k on it. Car hasnt been in australia for long in fact it was only registered last month. The issue im having is every time i turn on the car and drive off in the first gear change it seems, i hear a crunch. It only doesnt it first time i turn on the car and it doesnt matter if the engine is cold or up to temprature. Ive checked the gearbox oil and it seems fine so i think i shoukd just drop it and put new stuff in.

Any one else experience something similar?

I hear a grinding when i drive off and it hits second gear. Only happens on a cold start and it grinds for a second. Anyone know if that could be abs too? Btw mines auto. Not sure if gearbox or this abs u guys mention.

probably ABS, maybe next time hold it in 1st until you get past the speed it normally shifts to 2nd, if it still does it, it is most likely the ABS, if only does it when your transmission actually shifts to 2nd, it might be a transmission issue.

my sedan does it.. if it doesn't happen, maybe your ABS isn't working.. All ABS systems do some sort of test like this, but most don't have the actuator attached to the firewall, so you don't hear it.

    • 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...
