I'd just like to commend the workshop Xclusive Colours because we don't hear enough good feedback for repairers.

I recently had some repair work done on the car and Louie did a fantastic job I wouldn't trust any other panel beater. He even fixed up the last crappy repair work that was done on the car.

If you're looking for a panel beater, he's your man.

>_<

Cheers,

... LOUIE IS THE MAN !!! ... he's been painting my cars for over 10 years now ... i first met him way back in 2000 just as i got back from London & got into imports then the word started to spread - he was then in Yennora then Wentworthville & now Smithfield ... he recently completed a "dip shell" lead wipe chassis up restore of a friends 246 DINO FERRARI - absolutely mind blowing "off the gun" zero orange peel finish ... (check out the rear end shot of my car in the "SAU garage" to get a handle on his off the gun clear coat finish thats NEVER been buffed EVER !! & that was painted in 2002 & still looks exactly the same now) ... he is the nicest, fairest, cheapest, fastest, most honest, most talented spray painter i have ever met ... louie is king !!! ... cheers malcolm :) ...

    • 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?
