ive already got springs - nah im going to talk to Jeff Ash this morning - hopefully he can help. Ive been told springs will heighten the front a little but the way i saw the wheels semi disappeared behind the wheel arches this morning - i actually dont think it would be a bad idea.

i dont get dragged often either - must be something to do with being a chick. But i love to muck around with motorcyclists haha they take off and they dont expect to see a car beside them off the mark so they'll gun it more then i'll gun it more - of coarse i lose but i give them a good run for their money :D

Ill be ready to rumble in a month or so.....

400hp VF22 turbo and full Autronics ecu....  

easy 12's

Daniel

Yeah fair enough but my goal is to beat one of them with my car in the next few months or so... i have been wanting to get turbo done and other bits with it for quite sometime now! but if things sort themselves out at work then i will give Brett a few $$$ to work on a few things.

Hey Dan if you want the car to go faster, lighten it up.... take out the 130Kg driver and put in a 95kg driver with the same 1st name.... should work a treat:uh-huh: :D

motorbikes are awesome

250cc piss poor

i'll just remember never to drag one of them 1000cc

hondas or watever brand they are

goddddddddddddddd damn!

adrian :D

i wanna get my motorbike license! but i just have this really bad feeling bout it!

Dan - should be very interesting to watch once you get the mods done - I'm going to go up to PSI tomorrow morning to have a chat with the blokes there - what was the guy's name again? Was it Brett?

Adrian - ANY bike over 600cc will destroy any car unless u have one doing less than 12s.. my 14 year old 750 GSX-R will still do the 1/4 in under 12 and 0-100km/hr in a little over 3 - bit slower with the front wheel in the air, but much more fun! :D

yup - the bike is much fun for only $3k - completely std too!

I'm 26 - u?

Definitely - tho don't go bigger, go the 250 for the year first otherwise you'll end up a smear on the pavement.. experience is required for bigger bikes.. :D

Hey Cam,

Yup Brett is the guy to speak to tell him that you are a good friend of Daniel Webb and he will look after you the same way as he did with dan (IMACUL8), Brett really does go that extra effort and incase of an emergency i know that i could call him and he would help! He is a very busy man though so book perhaps a week in advance.

My car will be sleeping the night next tuesday and wednesday getting ready for auto salon so if you are there then let me know how my car is going :-)

    • 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?
