EVOIV, the R32 is lighter than a sil??? Wtf? The engine weigh's like 200kg's more over the front end in the R32 doesnt it ?(i think it does anywayz....), which = major understeer.

I've got a heavily modded sil man, and to be honest, it is soooo easy to get sideways with a one second pop of the clutch. And controlling it and holding out the drift isnt too hard either.

But hopefully i'll be getting some coilovers soon aswell too make my sliding experience more enjoyable.

Most ppl talk the talk but do not walk the walk, as with dorifting/powersliding, and u will not learn unless u run ur car off the road a few times. I do not claim tio be able to dorfit as i cannot connect corners yet but i have mates who 'claim' they can.

Half of these ppl dont even push their car!! My advice? Push it hard but enjoy it at the same time, you have to fail before you can succseed!

Anywayz..i know some ppl who have been importing sils just for track use for dorifting, you could pick one up form Japan modded for 4k if ur know here u are looking.

Hmmmm,,,Dman thinks he should get another car for weekend driving..Muahahahaha

An AE86 would be an even better chioce for controlled dorift :)

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      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...

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      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.

      Just like in being 14mm too small (296mm) makes it not fit, being 14mm too big (324mm) it also won't fit. You want to find the correct rotor.

      @GTSBoy Ok so that was the shops problem...they showed R33 rotors on R34 page and i did not know 296 do not fit(and are for R33) Yes i bought "kit" with rotors and pads. Pads are ok(i have GTT calipers front and rear). They have some 324mm but no 310mm. So i dont know if they would fit. I have 17inch LMGT4s So another question. Can i fit those in the rear or they are just "too" big for that?
