what the hell! ...

jumped onto the keysy bypass around 8pm. got to sets of lights up towards sth gippy fwy. a silver s2 pulls up next to me and pass's me, had a days kit , was thinking it was Southern Tango (FReddy) but a women driving maybe his wife?..

next set of lights 2mins later red light.. sitting next to the silver s2 checking it out waiting for the driver to turn to give a wave.....wasted my time doing that...got nothing.

looking in my rear view cause these blue lights got my eye..... darkgreen /blue S1 sporting a front mouth thru the front bar and a exhaust maybe just a catback.

again women driver, i pulled into the left lane she came up next to me i was thinking 'im gonna get a wave', as i look over nothing again. just keeped goin.

excited to see 2 other stagea's on the road, all at the same time, dissapointed they didnt even care or notice... *shrugs*

next time im going to Blar my HORN!

my wife approved on a new car wholey on the fact that it had heated leather seats. no shit.

thats what my miss's liked about it also.

she drove it once, couldn't get her out of it, she has a echo so there is a big difference in power and class.

My Mrs didn't like the size (my poor, poor R34 rims are testament to that), but she started having sneaky races when she had the car on her own...

Subsequently, I fitted a EXEDY clutch which even I had trouble getting used to, and the problem resolved itself! That said, she has tasted awd goodness: I have been ordered to get rid of the Chaser and buy her an evo VII... WOMEN! (Gotta love 'em!)...

Donation of said Chaser kindly gratefully accepted, thanks Micah! :)

geez!! im trying to convince my mrs she needs an aristo or something

whoops this is the spotted thread, better not whore it up :)

YEAH, you heard the man - no more whoring!!! :)

Spotted Alex in the CL11QE-mobile on the weekly coasties cruise!

zei201, when are you going to attend one? We meet at the Berowra truck stop @ 7.30pm every Thursday and head up the coast (just past Gosford), then kick back, talk shit, etc.

I'm in for next Thursday....whoops no I'm not...I'll be down at Sandown....will be in for the next Thursday though......I promise.

spotted a hot lookin STR86T with some lovely new wheels....very nice Nick :)

Thanks mate!

I'll take some pics and post them up over the weekend - it's too hot now and I've hit my internet limit, which will reset after midnight or so tonight. Uploading photos right now would be painfully slow...

Now that I've got twins the misses has taken over my car completely. I'm lucky to drive it to work some nights or drive it on the weekends :(

She loves it though, the amount of looks she gets, the sound of the turbo spooling and the way it wants to take off if she gives it abit of throttle.

    • 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?
