These guys were clearly not undercover, three dudes, one hell fat bastard... just having a bit of fun i think but like everyone has been saying, it is more car jacking that we should be concerned about... best thing is probably to drive straight to the nearest cop shop and park out the front... what can they do then?? Invite them in for coffee and cakes?

my brother used to own a done up CRX ... one night while visiting sydney a pulsar pulled up next to him at a set of lights ... one of the guys in the pulsar wound his window down and said "we want you car" while flashing a machete ... let's just say that they leant that my brother's understanding of sydney streets and the CRX's handling were quite well developed ... took about 3 minutes to lose them (yes, they tried keeping up)

personally I don't have any trouble with people following me ... the moment they see what's behind the wheel they tend to go away ... I stand 6'3" weigh in around 130kg and look somewhat like a bikie (that's the goatee's fault)

best way is to keep a mag light right next to your seat guys.. so if the coppa's do a search in your car and found a mag light, what are they gonna do? what its a torch!.. mag light is much better than a machete, well that is if coppa's do a search in your car more likely you will be in less trouble than having a machete in your car! :)

@Ronin 09, I live around there.. will be keeping my eye out on that car.. they are just jeolous people who can't afford a Skyline.

      R32 GT-R: 4WD Light Turns On After Bumps – Code 19 (ETS Motor) But No Issues Found

      Look for broken wire or bad connector at the motor. Might not be it, but is worth starting there, as it is easy.

      R32 GT-R: 4WD Light Turns On After Bumps – Code 19 (ETS Motor) But No Issues Found

      By Bireley_32 · Posted

      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!

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      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...

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      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.
