Finally you have time to update

Have some 255s you might want to buy :P

Haha yeah yeah it was a piss poor attempt at an update i know :P

Bringing the 255s to WTAC? O_O hehe if not, SMSP Track day?

BTW love your black on black.... On black.... on bloack... look. Very unique. Though that turbo is going to grab attention when you get pulled over lol

Yeah it was a hard choice to make when i started but thought i would give it a shot, i love it!

Some dont like the look but it doesnt bother me in the slightest haha.... Tough and stealth! And yes the turbo is a kind of giveaway!

Actually could be a good idea

Let me know if we can make it work :D

Good to hear that your life seems to be falling exactly into place. The house looks amazing mate, top job. Car also looks 10/10

Keep up the good work slart

Thanks buddy, all going perfectly for a change haha

Will have to catch up soon mate!

Mat loves Bloke on bloke on bloke....

At least, that's how I ready it.hahahahahah

255 for SMSP? Nah, don't bother. Just put some more wax on your roof. It will slide further.

Giggity.... wait.... lolz

The 255s are for the front i hope, BUT will be spares for the rear incase they get baked :P

Need to get some custom roof sliders made to protect the paint me thinks!

For you guys not on Bookface, i met up with Mr NYTSKY Dave at WTAC and grabbed the bonnet dampers finally to install, they are an awesome bit of gear and well worth the money -

Now as for the suspension updates, this has been ongoing for far too farken long and its driving me mad! A simple task of taking the arms out to replace the bushes and ball joints has turned into a stressful endurance event that i will be glad to see done and dusted!!! So i sent them down one at a time to the local Carline/Fulcrum store, they came back pretty dodgy with one not having the bush pushed all the way through properly and both ball joints are now that tight i cant move them at all :verymad:

    • 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?
