I'M BACK BABY!

Noumea was nice, but I had to look at bloody peugots and renaults all week.

I did see a brand apsnkers Evo 8 though. Sexy car.

Early next week will be the best time to meaure the front bars.

Maybe people could meet me at my work.......

Welcome back Bass :rofl:

I'll be heading over your way for my Recaro's fitting late next week. So PM me details for your work and I'll drop in to measure it up. I dont think it will be that much different to the nissan sports measurements?

GTTR34

Sorry I couldn't talk much on the phone, I was at a restaurant for my birthday today.

Friday is fine with me.

Anytime.

DAZ, I'll need your measurements too.

HEy Bass I can swing past your work on Friday morning around 10-11am, can you pm me your details?

PM ur work address to me too Pete...

Daz can u pick me up from the Recaro fitting place on Friday bruvva? It's in Mitcham too.. we can go for a cruise or something.

See u tomorrow night anywayz.

Erik.

What front bar do you have?

Could you please take some detailed photographs of your front bar.

From straight on.

From directly above.

From above where the bumper and headlight comes together

I don't know anybody in Melbourne with a C-West front bar.....

Does anybody?

No worries.

Erik's website lists the car as having c-west but he posted Top Secret here so I guess thats what he has now?

How far away are these Pete? I am running out of cash....!

    • 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...
