Could you furnish me a price on a parcel cover please. this is the pull over one right? Mine was imported without it, as so many seem to be (well over here in NZ anyway) Guessing I'm going to have to drop my trousers and grab my ankles (sorry for that vision people - right before a weekend too!) price wise, but I'm hoping to be pleasantly surprised.

I'm dead keen on getting one of these too, although don't bother trying to get a new one from Nissan - been there, done that, and I'm still getting over the shock of the price.

I'm keen to buy it but I'm in NZ. In fairness to the Australian counterparts I'm happy to let them have a first shout at it. If no one else wants to take it from your hands, could you email me on [email protected]. I'm very keen on grabbing it, but would need to work out shipping costs to me in Auckland New Zealand. Slow is fine.

can't check my email in the weekend, so I may not get back to you till mOnday if you email.

guys would it be too much trouble for someone to take a picture of the 'locking' mechanism on each end of the cover bar. I wonder if the arrangement is similar to other Nissan wagon's like the Cefiro or Primera. I'm looking to stick stereo gear in my boot space so would really like to eventually geta cargo pull back cover to keep stuff like that out of the eye's of the few that choose a different lifestyle than others on a different side of the railway lines.

Have a look in nizmans photos if you need any ideas on sub and amp placement in the boot while still retaining a usable cargo area there is a pretty neat install pic there.

nizmans photo's?!? sub...amp...boot...where where where where

:bananaman :bananaman :bananaman

do a search for Nizman. then check out his gallery. Theres a whole heap of photos in there to browse through. If you click the very right most of the five photos at the bottom it jumps across the gallery to the next 5 photos. Saw the amp install in there, and I had decided to do exactly the same thing to mine originally. Good to see the concept works. I was going to adapt it more a bit. It was originally going to be a solid box, carpetted in the same carpet colour as the interior to blend it in better. Solid box was going to have fans in it to breathe for the Amp, but the enclosure would also house my second battery. We have now moved to another idea though. Using the spare wheel well to mount the Amp and the second battery. Sizing shows it will fit in there. Situation is that ordinarily I won't have a spare wheel though. On long trips I will have to carry one in the rear. Keeps the amp and stuff completely out of prying eye site though. My concerns are moisture or any leaks pooling water around the Amp/battery in the wheel well. May abandon the idea and go back to the constructed box. To be done shortly though, before Xmas is the plan.

cool plan for your setup - would love to see it :D

why do you need a second battery? PS2 , DVD player etc to power?????

found the pics , thanks for the guidance,

I think i'd put mine behind a grill, defo, saying that the windows are tinted around the boot area anyhow, but i wouldnt want the speaker to get mashed by an escaped Sprite bottle after a supermarket trip, :P

Second battery is just so that the stereo system does not drain the main system too much. Allows you to park up at the beach or wherever withthe stereo system on, with minimal risk of a flat battery to try and start the car with for the trip home. Charges off the charging circuit while car is running, isolated while car is turned off, so the only battery to be drained y the stereo is the secondary one.

On the subject of bodykits, does anyone know of where i would be able to get a rear wing? nothing rediculous like the ones on a few of the jap sites, just a modest wing to stop my car looking so much like a volvo. i've already got a slight bodykit on the car, skirts, rear pods, front bar and eyelids, but it's missing the wing.

any help is appreciated

    • 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?
