F#&K dude, this was one of the very cold company plenums correct? on an exchange basis? i say get them to refund your money, and look into a perforamz one or A philamantra plenum (he is the guy off Performance forums that does rb plenums) I have seen his work in the flesh, and its very nice work. they have variable length trumpets inside the plenum and 5 litre+ capacity.

Well i called the place today and he said take it off send it back to them and they will fix which i thaught was good but then he wanted me to pay the postage on it.So after a few choice words with this turd i rang QLD consumer protection and they told me that the company that made the plenum will have to cover all the costs for everything inc taking the plenum off the car and putting it back on.So i call company again and tell them that consumer protection said that he will ware the cost of everything if the plenum is faulty.After that he started raving crap about him knowing his rites and blah blah blah so i think consumer protection will have to sort this one out.

Mayhem By lifting of the runners its pulled away from the runner its hard to explain but you are welcome to come have a look

Adam talk directly with mick,if he is still there,i had a problem with a cooler from them thet was full of filings and them fixed it up and payed frieght.Also if you payed for this product by credit card the transaction is counted as happened in WA and he would have to contest any action by consumer affairs in WA costing him at least 1 airfare to WA,much cheaper for him to pay frieght.

    • 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?
