As i understand, it is not a 'legal height' for the exhaust alone, rather the law states something like

"the lowest point on the underside of the vehicle must be at least 10cm from the ground"...

so seeing that my exhaust diameter is so big, it is the lowest point on the car and it is (i'd guess) about 7cm off the ground.

I have a 3" full system too, but looking under my car, I'm sure mine is still at least 10cm above the ground, not like yours Ronin.

I haven't actually measure it, but I've seen mine before and it looks way way much higher than yours.

my cat back is a trust 4"... i'm pretty sure my car is stock ride height, but it MAY have lowering springs. Though i have never had any problems with the exhaust collecting speed bumps etc - only the front spoiler on driveways and it is a standard Type-M front bar!

hey pushead, whats this special resonator matt has at daalder? i had my resonator fitted on there and it sounded sweet. but he didnt say it was some special shiat or anything. very friend, seems like a top bloke.

hey ronin, ur exhaust looks DAMN low! did daalder put that onto ur car? they do good prices there too.

Hey pushead, how much did it cost ya? I'm thinking of doing the same thing

cheers

as in the special muffler? give matt a call dude, my story was a long one cos i had a hotdog install before but i swapped it for the special muffer as well so extra labour was involved. should be around $200. you will notice a dramatic change with noise and power.

anyway call Matt 9890 4444

Ive got a fairly large Lukey 3" S/S straight thru oval muffler (too big to be a resonator) in the middle. Does an awesome job of getting rid of the droning, and it sounds hell deep with zero raspiness on my SR20DET. Worlds better than other SRs that have no resonators at all...

    • 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?
