why are you asking me how ken went? Why dont you ask ken?

All i know is that he was coming first with the hill climb but ken was in the first group. I dont know how the motorcana went.. but kens wife was kicking his arse.. !!

Drive back was uneventful cos there was no one on the roads. Good ey?

Wife might have been kicking my arse but it wasn't in the m/khana...:P

Cheers

Ken

ken- so did you win? hehe didnt see he was online

If you check back through the posts for yesterday , the answer is there.

To cut it short , yes I did. 1st 4wd and 1st outright in the hillclimb.

Don't know bout the khana but was having WAAAAY too much fun. Toasted a set of near new 540's on the rear.

Yeehaaa.

cheers

Didn't realise that 540's could be killed so easily - mind you I didn't see what you did to them on the track;)

Might have to rethink my next tyre choice if I ever get back on the road at the rate my mechanice work:bahaha:

Micko , your back:D

540's will last a LOT longer than that. Check the vid when we convince Neo to edit it. Don't forget they have done Collie , Wellington dam , Mt Clarence and the m/khana .

The khana was a drift fest ( well for me it was ):P

Is that cos you can pedal better than him?

No , cos he thinks I shafted him over a Rally car I purchased.

Long story and will tell you over a beer one night.

    • 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...
