hehe u boys are going to hate me.

I was on great Eastern Hwy today giving it to my car from the causeway off ramp then the lights changed green so i kept flooring it haha then right outside Burswood about 25 metres in front of me in the far lefthand land (i was in the far right) what did i finally see - a cop car in front of me :)(couldnt believe it took me so long to notice it)

A whole lot of expletives from me followed - shoved on the brakes - still a bit behind cop car - but we me a huge way out the front of all the other cars i had nowhere to hide what i had been doing- cop car goes from normal speed to sllloooowing right down - then in the middle of the road the brake lights come on the cop car - *niz holds her breathe she'd been spotted - expected the blue n red lights any moment* the car paused for a while mustve decided it was too much trouble or something ventually went back to normal speed n eventually turned into Burswood Cas.

hehe once again the nizmeister has a stroke of luck where the coppers are concerned - thats the past 2 times theyve decided it was too hard or somethin last time they actually put on their lights - then took them off again - shook their finger at me a bit and let me keep driving on hehe

i have no clue why - i drive like a bat outta hell when im pissed off - just ask Joe hehe and ive already got a rep with the MC guy. But the coppers love me mustn have enough Rice on my car haha

Nah i'll probably get caught now soon cos ive been a braggin - but i dont know they always just ignore me - its actually startin to make me paranoid haha

looknig forward to saturday - i am sooo excited - hmmm not about the early start tho - need to get in touch with Russ to organise him getting his litle silver butt down here to follow me - not that i have anymore of a clue than him haha but we'll get there!! :)

heeh im in such a happy talkative mood tonight - mustve been cos i got rid of all my wrath now im just hugs n cuddles :)

Anybody have any A1 believeable crap i can put in my resume? haha i need this 40K job - if i earn 5K it means money for mods as well as working in osb park means nomore parking tickets ;) ooo and my mechanic will jsut be around the corner to go harass haha

    • 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...
