Spewing dude sorry to hear!!

By the way don't always go for the cheapest front bar, as it is then generally a bitch to fit. I just got my car back from VIVA bought a modded 400R bar cost me $450 plus paint and fit, which they organized, check them out speak to Ben.

Deluxe :uh-huh: :uh-huh: :uh-huh: :uh-huh:

Deluxe, how much was the "paint and fit" on top of the price of the bar? , cause they quoted me 500 I thinks its a rip off.

Richo- They removed my MSpec bar and GTR wing and painted and fitted the 400R bar and new stealth wing(which they had to paint the whole boot) and did all that for $600, pretty damn reasonable if you ask me!

Deluxe :crazy:

Thats not bad at all!    Did you get the stealth wing from them as well? If so how much did you pay?

Nah mate got the stealth wing from carmate.com they are also good for parts, got that sent over for $300 from Syd, So for total it costed me $1350 for front bar stealth wing all fitted and painted. then i sold my old bar and GTR wing got $750, so all in all cost me just paint and fit to change, and now the car looks well fatter, and then got a bargain on some new wheels(with dish) so now car looks sweet as!!

pretty sure VIVA can get stealth wing for similar price, not too sure on style tho!

    • 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...
    • 310mm rotors will be avilable from Australia, Japan, and probably a few other places. Nothing for the front can be put on the back.
