May have been, do you come up to Toowoomba often?

not really. but my missus lives in ipswich and has family in toowoomba that she always visits. she has my car nearly every weekend atm while i sit on my hands and wait for my licence...

oh and about the slope of that hill in the photo on the previous page, ill admit the slopes a little bit deceiving.

I was actually drving up the wall of a dam.

On Monday at 7.45am, I was pulling out of a shopping centre on the corner of Logan and Nursery Roads Mt Gravatt. I was polite and let two cars go in front of me and then as I pulled up at the lights I saw a silver S1 parked two cars ahead in the other lane - so I was a bit cheesed off that I could have been park right along side. Rego was 578 something. and had a website address on the rear window.

spotted a maroon stagea in st marys today.

...i was the crazy person in the electrical van beeping my horn and yelling :)

Did you catch the plates, Andy? If it had standard wheels, I'm sure this is the same one I've seen around Blacktown, Parramatta and Wentworthville a few times. Reg: JAG75B

yeah it was pretty stock, didnt have custom plates either, they were white plates i think, but didnt pay too much attention as to what the rego was

it had a guy in his 20's driving it with a woman in the passenger seat

they looked at me funny when i screamed "GO THE STAGEA" as i gave them the thumbs up.

...their window was up so im not quite sure if they understood what i said.

    • 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...
