Rears are almost done. I gotta hand it to my panel beater he has done an awesome job!! Exactly what I wanted actually it's even better than I expected. I would highly recommend them to anyone needed body work. Offtap customs in dandy. Can't wait till its fully painted and then the will be off to topstage composites where I will be getting the V3 rear wing and V3 front lip. Front and rear diffusers will be coming soon.

Update on what will be happening in the coming weeks. Car is booked in at topstage composites next week to get V3 rear wing and front lip. Still searching for a r33 front bar to fit the lip to atm. Then car will be off to havoc fabrication again to get some door cards made up and a few other little jobs done as well. My aim atm is to have the car ready for January 30th sandown event.

Awesome.

Very tidy result, a credit to you and the guys doing the work.

Time to get this thing prepped for track

Thanks dale. I'm defiantly happy with how all the body has turned out. I can't wait to see what it looks like after topstage Compisites finishes with it.

Car looks excellent mate.

Geez I hope you have that front bar mounted solidly, that's one big bitch front splitter thats going to make mince meat of factory mounts.

Is the bar factory or fibreglass?.

Love ya work

Cheers

Neil.

Thanks Neil. It is a factory GTR bar mounted with the GTR reo bar as well. As for mounts Freddy is going to make me up some mounts to hold the splitter when I take it back there to get the front diffuser installed.

Wow. Awesome stuff, consistent with the quality of workmanship to date. Well done.

Just don't run off - that thing is just made for plowing.

Cheers mate. The whole car has to be raised around 45mm to allow for all this extra downforce. Otherwise I will end up dragging my nice new front splitter along the ground.

    • 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...
