Or we could help the guy out other than trying to tell new people to bugger off... But hey, what would I know, I dont even own a skyline.

Unfortuneatly Im just as good as the others, no real help.

Maybe get out the yellowpages tho? As to behonist it would be more helpful that the buch of 'seniour' memebers. Just dont go to dmd or arespeed or something unless they genuinly have the best price, I think with those type of places (where 'everyone' goes) you might not be getting as good a price as you would be going to a lesser known paint/pannel shop. Just my thoughts, no way bagging out either businesses, as they do, do good work.

Its not that people arent willing to help, its that people arent willing to help people who cant help themselves.

Some like Dr Kustom, others have had bad experiences. Some like Ares, others have had bad experiences. Some like DMD, others have had bad experiences. Some like Camerons Body Works, others have had bad experiences. Thats a basic run down of every other thread you could have found by searching.

kthx.

No... We are not in some sort of *grammar* competition... We are on an ENGLISH speaking forum, not a TXT speaking forum...

If you expect to be taken seriously, start taking the time to make your posts comprehendable...

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      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...

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      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?
