so let me get this straight, you put on a boost guage, then get pulled over, the cop notices the guage and asks to lift your bonnet, he cant notice anything but you got a guage so he pits you to get it further inspected, then you will come on here and complain about pit inspections???? why oh why??

When did this happen? He only posted the thread a few days ago.

It came with the car from japan didn't have a choice so want any way to make use of it that's all

If it's a mechanical gauge you can blow into the back of it and have blowing competitions with your mates lol... If it's electric well, um, put it in the toaster and see what happens

Wouldnt the best way to make use of it be to sell it to make money for, I dunno, stickers or whatever

Sorry, but it seems a bit silly to use a boost gauge on an N/A just because you got one. If its a Jap brand boost gauge it might be worth $50-$100 second hand.

High guys!!

I was standing in the garage looking at the wall and i saw dads leaf blower and i thought... This is exactly like a turbocharger, it sucks/blows and looks like one!!!!! :w00t::woot:

BRB I'm going to put it on his car to try it!!!! :banana:

Way too slow to the party

    • 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...
    • 310mm rotors will be avilable from Australia, Japan, and probably a few other places. Nothing for the front can be put on the back.
