For sure!

Brakes bleed up today, transmission will be built tomorrow. So its all looking like it will be ready to go.

There is a few regulars going out so its shaping up to be a really good day out.

Yeah Im looking forward to it.

Haven't done a 'khana for a while (DECA/Texi) and Im back on my street tyres so I'll be out having fun - even if I have no chance and will be drifting a bit!! :whistling:

same its been ages since I was out on a decent skid pan.

Im going to use the old street tires as well and RWD to go with it. 400Kw all to the rears should be interesting to say the least.

Just need to find some rims to clear the new brakes

mine also makes over 400kw at all four wheels and on 4 year old street tyres that are hard as rocks was still blowing away he rotors i love smoking past them

I've heard quite a bit about your car, seems to be one of or maybe the only one that's very quick in NSW.. :)

So what times were you doing at OPGP?? That way all the guys doing the superbattle can have an idea of what they should be chasing (besides giant)... :rofl:

my work shop is next door to oran park so the car has been there lots of times it can do 1.12 around full track and 47 short track on the old track at wake field on street tyres and no sway bars 105 flat the times are on nat soft we are pulling the engine out this week to do some more work gaints car looks like an animal going around the track

Fark me!!! 1:05 at Wakie on street tyres!!!! Looks like there's going to be some stiff competition at superbattle... :)

Tell me your going to go new semis for this event??!?!

Jason Bobby was chatting to you this afternoon. Ive got to arrange to drop past and pick up some sway bars this week.

After tunning my car that night at Adam's I got bored and went back for more a week or so latter.

You may remember you walked in at the end of the tune, Grey GTR fully caged with massive cams and external gates.

hi buddy how did the car go in the end i got myself an r34 gtr v spec now as well

Nice, ill drop past and have a look possibly today.

I was doing a few things to Bobby's R34 Nur yesterday when the bars came up in conversation again.

Mine has now made 440, its enough to get into trouble with, Had it at wakefield a few weeks back but broke a box and the brakes failed so was happy with 9's.

Ive since fitted F50 brembos and repairing the box today.

With my extra 100Kw and all new suspension set-up (ohlins, swaybars etc etc) I was actually slower at wakefield. Once I get the suspension working properly again it should be much faster than before. Not to mention it should stop now too.

Are you happy with the suspension Chris or is there more to be had??

Ive been using a pyrometer lattely and was seriously unaware of how uneven my tire temps actually were, for test and tune days like the L2s ones they are an excellent tool to have.

Hey Brad,

Yeah I actually use low boost which is 9 - 10psi (round 200rwkw) at the track just to keep things a bit, well, looked after as my car and motor are basically stock!

Suspension is ok I guess? I did a day at OP North on sat, only understeered in the wet/damp parts, but sat pretty well when dried out. Didnt open wheel this time either but I just feel I need a bit more front camber. Duncan told me about that temp guage thingy for tyres! Yeah would be good to use one!

    • 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?
