[Canberra] Just by chance as I stood up from my desk and looked over the partition out the office window just after lunch today (Monday) I seen a dark green C34 (S1?) going into the open air car park at the Airport.

Quite a few Stageas about yesterday.

Spotted a white M35 in Newtown around 11am.

Spotted a silver C34 and a Silver M35 (gave me a quick toot of the horn) on South dowling st in Surry hills around 445pm.

Spotted a silver M35 in the broadway shopping center car park around 530pm.

Spotted a Volvo 262C Bertone Coupe today on the Nepean Hwy.

Never seen one of those before.

Why would you make a 2 tonne 2 door Volvo.

He so wanted to be a Stagea driver.

They're 1 serious brick! Vince Harmon ( Volvo specialist) has one with a 350 Chev outside his workshop in Mitchell A.C.T. nearly everyday, he's a serious Volvo freak!!!

Silver C34 going through Hartley toward Lithgow on GWH, while a mate & I were having a feed at the Lolly shop cafe; getting ready to ride MTB's back to the top of Mt Victoria.

I think I saw you heading down the mountain while we were on the way up.

spotted 5 stagea's at the JDMST meet at the creek tonight :)

Did you spot mine, Theo? I saw you drive in (or at least I'm pretty sure it was you), so I went for a walk but couldn't find you. :(

Though I saw myself... was on the way to the City, and there was a Silverstone (my colour) 350Rx coming the opposite way out fo the city on the warringah fwy. Lowered and had wheels. Think it was a white on green plate.

spotted a Bayside blue S2 on fullarton rd, travelling towards the cross rd, would have waved but wasnt in the stag as i had just dropped it off

If that was around 440 it would have been me. Spotted twice in one day? No hiding for me.

    • 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...
