Back to the exhaust talk and pics for a sec a few weeks back...

Got to exprience the car as a passenger in the rear seats, as a driver the exhaust seems to be just loud and it just hums in your ear.

I always thought it would be a killer for the rear passengers.

Sat at the back today while i let someone else try and it was normal, it was fine :nyaanyaa:

As long as i can bare with the exhaust, i don't care anymore :cheers: woohoo!

Oh, and for the first time today the rear right wheel i heard scrub going around a corner. But there were 3 people in the rear.

BTW! nice cars to everyone above.

The R34 with Meisters looks nice. The front looks of too much white. The 2 bottom lips would look better black. (IMO). My lip is and the front diffuser when i find it will remain black aswell.

nice looking car you have there grant. If you dont mind me asking, how much were those rims, they look amazing on the car. (my r34 is about as low as yours now :) )

just off the topic, i do like the look of no wing from the front and side, but i dont think i liek the look from the ass

Pm'ed on the wheels dude

Cheers for the comment aswell, as Basti said, it needs a deeper rear bar and the side skirts to complete the look. If you take spoilers off, usually you have to ad something down low so the the rear doesnt look so small.

Nismo skirts for the side and the Nismo S tune rear bar and my car will suit the no spoiler look alot more im hoping. oh and as usual it looks alot better in real life then in the pics. R34s look so boxy in pics, but i think you have to see them in real life to notice they are not so basic in design ;)

Me and mate were chilling at his place and he had these 20s (20 x 9) lying around so we decided to chuck em on the 34 to see if it will fit.

Despite having rolled guards and such, they fit under the guards, but the rear bar will be hit if the shocks compress ie. speed hump or such.

Now I am planning on getting some similar wheels the same size, just not as wide this weekend - I think 8s should fit without posing threat to snapping the rear bar.

Looks super fat though on the dirty dirty black car...

Those 20's look great :D

quick question, which rims would be best on my 34. the imagines i have got -

or these:

mmm... both nice, but I think I prefer the ones pictured on your car.

They also look a little less common than the other ones.

i couldn't be bothered making a new thread to ask, and i figured majority of veiwers in this thread actually own R34s, just wondering, when u brake, ((when the lights are off) how many rear taillights come on, and which ones.

i saw a r34 the other day and he had the opposite taillights to me working when braking :D

    • 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.
