I would love to lower my car but then it wouldnt get in my driveway.. and no way im leavin it on the street.

Dont care if my car is rice either, i dont need power.. doesnt interest me. its got enough for me..

Yeh part of autosalon is to see what people think of it, but that said i dont really care either. Im happy with it, thats all that counts to me

I totally agree. In my opinion some people do up there cars from the outside and some do it from the inside. maybe if I won the lottery i might spend the money on performance but untill then im happy just doing all the body bits.

I tried to get on sunday but was told it was booked out.... was gonna try up the boost a little on my 303.5kw run.

i dont think it was the fact that they booked out...............more or less the fact they were running behind.......because they kept allowing certain cars to have re-runs when it was meant to be one go consisting of 3 runs, and thats it.

oh well shite happens i suppose, bit of bs though

Ok....little to no engine mods....throw 6k at a bodykit, bright as paintjob, and a set of rims.....hmm now its a tough as autosalon warrior thats slow as all show no go.

so i should put thousands into making a car stupidly fast and get defected every weekend insted of driving it everyday and enjoying it...makes perfect sence now that i think about it

240rwkw in my last car was enough for me and 7 defects later i want a car that i can drive to work and home but still have fun. i dontr have heaps of cash to have two cars, mod the shit out of one and maintain another. it doesnt work like that.

if you dont like what other people have done to their car why try and make them feel little

i dont want to be 30, living at home and say "at least i had a big turbo''

im 19 and im working on it but i have other priorities other then a car.

You can still have a car that goes fast and looks good, take deluxe for example a comfortable 230rwkw that gets driven everyday cops never hassle him, but how much do you get annoyed by them with your paint job. I drive my car everyday and cops dont look at me. Im not trying to make ppl feel little, i just think it would have been nice to see some more cars with some half decent power (i know matt and hostile were there), or a better mix of mods rather than just a paint job and some rims, i thought autosalon was spose to be the ultimate in modified cars ie they have everything done, engine, paint, kit, rims.

Im not 30 living at home champ, have lived in my own house for the past 4 years, im 22 and have many other priorities other than cars.

Im over this thread anyway just a joke really.

just a joke, then why keep replying?,,

I dont really care if my car is called rice, i dont need power.. Its just my daily that i drive to work and back really and have a bit of fun with by putting it into shows.. just for the fun, not for trying to win anything etc, thats just a bonus.

I like having something that stands out though, thus why i bought this car.

Meh call it rice, as long as i like my car, thats all that matters to me, and i do, i love my car. I enjoy driving it, with my stock as a rock engine.

im not snapping? U are happy with ur car.. im happy with mine.. as are the rest of us.. as long as ur happy with YOUR car whys it matter so much?

This threads turning into an ns.com thread.. all they do is nag and whinge. Can never please everyone.

Not gonna keep trying to justify ourselves or our cars, or keep trying to defend them.

I had a great weekend, sau won 3 throphies.

      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?
