hey same! it was great to see so many stageas there. thanks to everyone that came along - not surprisingly the stagea section had a decidedly family/low key feel! the car that won was a clean, straight car but I also thought it was great to see a few with some good mods too.

I spotted mine at 2.30am this morning when we gave up and admitted it wouldn't be ready. It is running but just too many jobs to get there. But man am I looking forward to getting it back in the next few days - there is nothing sensible about it ;)

Spotted: yesterday saw a yellow S2 with wheels in Mudgeeraba Village, and tonight at around 6.50pm spotted a S2, white, lowered with front mount and rims and a "our family" sticker on the back at Burleigh: I assume they were there to watch the carols/fireworks...

So who won the Stage category?

Yep, as Duncan said, it was great to have you all out there yesterday. Unfortunately both of us were too busy to come over and have a proper chat.

I just spotted a silver stock-looking s2 on Main Street, Blacktown. I was rolling stealth in my old man's Audi A4...

mine has the dayz carbon front bar, i swear south east qld has the most yellow series 2's in oz

Spotted series 1 RS4 Silver pearl(?) bar type front grill, personalised plates heading to town on Lionel street 1045hrs today. Spotted silver grey RS 1 series 1 honeycomb front grill, heading out of town on Federal road at 1115hrs or thereabouts. Both these cars looked very tidy :) & are new here in town (Kal/Boulder WA) or at least they are to me. Waved out of window of trusty troopie both times. They probably thought I was nuts. :(

Cheers GW

    • 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.
    • The filter only filters down to a specific size. Add to that, the filter is AFTER the pump. So it means everything starts breaking your pump even if its being filtered out.
