haha we had a posh private school nearby - the boys got drunk one night and wanted to go steal the crest off the gates ..... i didnt want a part in it cos i was pretty maggoted and so they tried to talk my friend who was on her L's at the time to drive the "getaway" car - they even drew up L-Plates for her and everything ..... i stopped her going - she was maggoted and on her L's it was really dangerous for all involved!

high school was ok - i used to have so much energy and i was always happy and bubbly and nobody could shut me up .... im a little different now..... i dont know where all my energy has gone and i dont know why i have a healthier diet and all now yet i have more god damn zits than when i was in high school and at stage where i lived off marsbars and coke!

Nah my ex was the one that got me into the mischeif - he would get drunk and him and his mates would get a wicked gleam in their eye and hatch a plan ....... usually somehow i got dragged into it but it was all good fun. He aint that happy person anymore tho.

im not worried anymore James - it only occured to me the other day that his older brother is exactly the same way and Andy was worried about him ..... must be genetic makeup or something - whatever it is i cant help him and i no longer blame myself .... besides ive dreamt about him a couple of times since then and told him off ....... and its made me feel better to get things off my chest to him even if it was just a dream :rolleyes:

never read Eddings sorry. I like crime and biographies :)

haha James wish i could get my arse back to QLD - but im meant to be saving for Europe next year! funny thing was - it was the middle of summer and it was raining...... it was our welcome to the Sunshine State :rolleyes:

    • 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...
