So everything's all done and dusted, got the car back last night from paramount performance in Toowoomba (great guys to deal with Terry really knows his stuff when it comes to GM V8s) and I'm super super happy with it.

It ended up making 264rwkw/355rwhp (through an auto with a slippy converter) the car sounds completely off it's head I love it so much. Ended up just putting in a new cam, pushrods, valve springs,double row timing chain and getting it tuned, and it made a huge difference (80~ rwkw difference)

Now where's bunta to convert the tractive effort to NM properly? I bet shes putting down some impressive torque for "only" 260 KW

sounded sick in the vid too Nick! Uber jelly!

Thanks man, yer the video really dosent do it justice just ask Tom he was sitting behind the car today lol

But yer no idea how much torque it made, is very nice to drive,after around 4g it's just a smoke show though lol

That's impressive for that old LS! Bet you're a happy man! You gonna squeeze some more out of her?

Not for a while, maybe some spray later on but for now it goes well... Has no grip ever lol

Too hard, the gearbox and diff are unfamiliar to me.

Nice result Nick!

    • Am I correct in assuming that the R35's are getting the classic skyline haircut off the odometer?  Quick search on carsales, there are 33 08 and 09 GTR's for sale, only 2 of them have more then 100,000km's on them (116,075 and 110,000 respectively).  And somehow there are about 25 for sale with around 60,000kms? Looks like the classic skyline haircut to me =/
    • @Stringycheese  Have you only gone to the one blue slip workshop?  There will be a heap of them where ever you live, good odds that the next place you go to will pass the car.  Unfortunately (or fortunately?) every blue slip / engineering workshop will be different and will be happy passing or failing different things - despite working from the same set of rules. It's kinda like 2 lawyers arguing over a piece of legislation, each saying their interpretation is correct. Might seem strange that this happens when it comes to getting a modified car passed, but this is very much a thing. A big part of the game is finding an engineer / workshop that is on the same page as you.
    • Bah. I daily mine. ~60km per work day, 10-12 thousand km per year. What's the point of having a dirty old Datto and leaving it in the shed. It needs to be driven and enjoyed while the govco allows us to do so. It will only be a few years before we're forbidden to even start up internal combustion engines.
    • Judging by that spring perch and the normal looking spring on it - not a coilover. Well.... it is a coilover, just a stock format coilover, rather than what everyone calls a coilover.
    • Yes it is. We get stock from Nismo directly. I'm happy to take photos/video of it as proof before I ship it with timestamps or whathaveyou.
