Recommended Posts

To alot of the older members who may remember me

IM BACK WITH VENGENCE muhahaha jks ;):D

BOOSTA aka Pete!

is comming back into the Skyline Australia Family!

I have just recently purchased a R32 GTST from a great import company in Capalaba South Star Motors (cannot thank these guys enough not once have they pressured me or given me the usual sale crap.) Thanks guys

1990 R32 GTST

Its got a genuine 61'000ks log book proven too

5spd manual

bodykit + GTR front bar

300zx brake upgrade

Apexi Coilover suspension Just Rebuilt!

3" full sports exhaust from turbo back

HKS pod Filter

HKS turbo timer

Plus usual Cold Air Con (just regassed)

The only thing im not sure on is the flairs on it, but the guys said if i dont like em they could take them off for me no probs. The best part is these guys will cover a clutch if it slips within the 2 months! other places laughed at me when i asked :(

Yeah i know what u guys mean, the flairs make the car look weird kinda crappy... I dont know why but yeh its something that i'll have to look at getting removed, apparently there stuck with a double side tape i just dont wanna dammage the paint cos its prefect, no scratches etc !

cheers Pete (BOOSTA)

I think the flares are OK, but I can't see the sideskirts lasting long being so low at the rear!! I think the flares go with the sideskirts and if one goes the other will look weirder??

Just an opinion, will have a better look next Sunday!!

Hey Guys Thanks for all the positive comments, Wow its nice to see some of the old skoolers still hanging around eg Belgarion, Squizz, and col.

Squizz the van finally died on me after it dropped a conrod through the block due to giving it a 1 wheel power slide out of a round about :)

Belgarion tell slip he better be comming on Sunday to the cruise so i can see if he still has my Rb25det :D and catch up too

Col will you be attending the cruise? u better biach cos i wanna drool over ya car hehehe!

It'll be nice to finally put the SAU polo shirt on again and actually be owning a skyline too, What can i say Im a die hard skyline fan thru and thru and always will be. THERE JUST IS NOTHING LIKE A SKYLINE!

Cheers Pete (aka BOOSTA)

PS. anyone know where i can find a nice big rear windscreen SAU sticker for my new toy? if anyone has one I'll pay cash on Sunday for it!

& if any one is looking for a GOOD QUALITY IMPORT go see the guys from South Star Motors there a great bunch if u want some thing changed or done with the car they can do it + there is no pressure :D as pete said

    • 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.
    • 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.
