a big, Big, BIG :) to John Howell (his details are in the link paul posted above)

Just re-installed my doors/inserts (with help from r to the i to the a to the Z) and it looks awesome.

I had purple suede replace the standard suedey type material in the series 2 gts-t's and also had my gearstick and handbrake leather redone.

it looks awesome. I will post some pics up tomorrow for all to see.

I'll be having the seats re-trimmed in charcoal leather and purple suede with a grey stitching in the not too distant future.

thanks once again john, greatly appreciated :)

yeap very nice look that purple gives

brilliant job and it wasn't any trouble for him.. nice and casual.. the way it should be... he doesn't hype anything up either... oh this is going to be really tricky... 50 trillion dollars

anyways he is boosting my ride tomorrow with my skilled hands as assitance..*cough*

what a versatile human

kim....cool it man... everyone knows there is a story behind everything...

i am sure there is a story on both sides of this fence.

all thats seems relevant here is he did a good job on jasons at a reasonable price in a very short space of time as well with no fuss.

the past is exactly where is should be

    • 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?
