D3 .. The second installment is coming - 12th May 2007 @ DRC 39 Rookwood Rd

Address: 39 rookwood rd yagoona (just off the hume highway)

Time: 7pm until very late (Saturday 12th May)

Cost: $50 per dyno run which gives you 3 power runs with print out of max

power and all mixtures

$1 soft drinks and sausage sizzle will also be available from about 8pm

onwards

Resident DJ AKAY will be mixing up his awesome array or hip hop, R&B and

dance tracks.

We are also extremely excited to announce that the lovely Vera Fernandes and

the amazingly talented MC Tupz whos songs have recently been played on 96.1,

and his crew will be performing throughout the night!!

Queen St racing will be bringing down some of there top quality show cars

and if we are lucky we may see an appearance of the famous M3 drag car on

the dyno.

Along with the cars there will be DRC and QSR promo girls on hand for

anybody that needs a little bit of ''cheering up''

Meguiars and DBA are the official sponsors for the event and will be

bringing down giveaways and prizes for the top competitors on the night. The

prizes will be awarded to the 3 highest powered cars on the night excluding

the special guest cars.

Photographers from various magazines including fast fours and street

commodores will be scouting cars for future features in their magazines.

Ignition DVD will be filming the event so all of you that are wanting to get

your ride on the dvd make sure you come down and get on the dyno.

Rumour has it that there will be 3 or 4 cars making over 500kw showing up on

the night and a possible 1000hp drag car attending aswell.

All in all I think this line up makes for an awesome Saturday night and

definitely beats the nightclubs with the hangover the next morning. Hope to

see you all there and if you have an questions please don't hesitate to

contact Adam on 97085550, Joe on 0414529062 or Ali on 0404663142.

    • 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.
    • 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?
