Well when i was 16 i was a lil junior working at skippers and i was walking down shepperton rd and thought - when i get my license im going to have a black car with attitude.  

I have a dream :)  haha

Despite my mum telling me from a young age that my first car wouldnt be a V6 or V8 i could put that outta my head but thank heavens for dad i had a V6 turbo and learnt to drive mainly on a HSV. With a family like mine u have to be into cars theres no way around it.

ssshhh don't tell everyone there something wrong with it , your trying to sell it.

* it's ok people, it's perfect, nizmo was kidding *

Worked at Skippers, what dept. I gotta couple mates in there.

Brodie , Murray , Steve, Bill , mainly in service side.

Cheers

Ken,

Your a dobber, I'm dobbing on you for dobbing on me:P

Can you sort out a map for this cruise thing, no point in relying on adam, he will only have just arrived, so you should choose a Sunday arvo cruise through the Northern suburbs, ending at a pub for a nice beer.

See'ya:burnout:

Already done it . Refer to my previous posting somewhere in these threads.

As I said , I'm the ideas man , I leave it to the cruise captain to work out the fine details.

Joe , JOE , Damn!! where is that guy when you want him.

oh I know.... York Hospital:lol: :uh-huh:

Cheers

( ideas man)

Ken

I'm baccccccccccck

just my luck my day was goin so well until i got a fricken call from nandos just after i picked up my car from the exhaust shop dammit and they starting being lil girls crying for me to come in coz noone else could dammit

so being the good samiritan i am i gave up my free time (actually planned on cruising lol) to go in and help the bastards!

always wanted to say this!--> and thats my 2c

heheh

adrian

vspec(Paul) must admit nice car you got there

i swear i have seen u b4 when i was with my mate in a green soarer ages ago when i had no clue as to who u were!

adrian

p.s this is not double posting lol

i simply forgot :)

tafe+work= bad

exhaust=good

majority rules adrian had a bad day

only with 2 hours or pure goodness lol due to his exhaust hehehe anyways

yes indeedily doodily my car goes much better now!

can feel more power and boost rises bit quicker

only bad point is my car runs a tad to rich

need to invest in a S-AFC better yet i just get a powerfc or sumfin'

adrian :)

Adrian, The GTS-t's always run rich, now without the restriction of the exhaust the higher boost will encourage more fuel to be dumped. Don't bother with an S-AFC if you can do it properly with an aftermarket computer.

Glad your happy, just wait till you do a few more mods, then you'll be over the moon.

See'ya:burnout:

yes indeed

can't wait to get rid of that finaly restriction

that damn dump pipe

has anyone actually heard a screamer pipe?

i heard just getting the normal plumb back dump provides more horsies? sumthin to do with the gases re entereing or some shit

do screamer pipes soundgood?

adrian

Adrian,

Screamer pipes are for cars with external wastegates, like that Evo at Works. For the factory turbo with an internal wastegate your best option is a dump pipe with a separate internal wastegate pipe, joining 20cm or more below the dump, to restrict turbulance.

A sensible conversation and answer in Whoretown.:eek:  

Next your gonna stop whoring at work and do something constructive:lol:  

Don't worry, it will never happen again, what was I thinking. And just the thought of doing something constructive a work sends a shiver down my spine.

See'ya:burnout:

(I'm outta here too)

    • 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.
