im keen to head back carseldine way tomorrow night for a longer stay this time.

BTW got to the airport in time fine the other night. other than being half an hour late due to a 4 car pileup on the airport road....

and my bro was half an hour late due to dodgy baggage claim timing.....and everything being uber busy. 9:10 before i got there, just as he walked out...geebus what drive

lots of fun..

I'm at aspley, where the hell is this said joint at carseldine, someone pm me it. Keen to come out for a chat & pizzas.

woolworths complex cnr beams/gympie rds. I'm not there this week . if I am there look for a signed combo van.

I was on my way home from dinner at about 9pm'ish and there was no one there other than general shoppers...

There was a marked police car parked out the front of the coffee shop tho on the entrance to the center...

Probably just refueling themselves for a hard night of "read the newspaper at the station rather than catch junkies breaking and entering"... :P

i headed down with my little bro. we were there from 7:30- about 8:15 before we gave up and headed home :)

all good tho. was a nice drive and some eats either way. contemplated heading down to BNR...but decided to head home and do some drinking instead

I'll be at carseldine shops in the van from 730. I would like to get this meet going properly so if you can drag a few more people in even better. I'll even spot a pizza or two :)

yup i'll be there again on thursday. and i too would like to get it rolling. if we get a good hand full of regulars we could even make a road trip occasionally to BNR to see the southerners :action-smiley-069:

on the topic of the weather..........ridiculous. ruined our entire days work today. had the entire pool interior in and smoothed off, looking pretty....and it haled and pissed down......7 peoples work hrs, and all the pebble wasted for nothing.....thousands of dollars of waste basically.......shit....

/rant out

Yes rain is certainly something different. Still don't have the gtr back from dan's yet & heading back to work for 2 weeks so have to catch up with y'all when i gets back...hopefully won't be raining then :P

    • 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?
