working on a sunday???

Phuck that!!!!

Counting down the days til my car comes back (if i only knew how many days i had left to go!!) im getting so excited ..... getting new spoiler ..... getting EBC ..... getting Gauges ..... eventually getting chequer plate ....... my car wont recognise itself :)

neither is my dad *insert whiny voice here* "but it'll be noisy and horrible ....Lyn you really dont want it ..." ... my car .... i do want it .... whether you get me a price or not its going into my car :D

Something special? hope it looks special :) yeah everyones rushing round for PAS ..... only two weeks now ..... you coming to see?

you get a day off during week to compensate? ..... not so bad then :)

dont know whether im doing the right thing changing GTR rear spoiler to veilside tho ...... i have to wonder ...... oh well just sick of looking like a clone and i guess still have GTR spoiler if i dont like veilside.

haha i'll be the tall blonde in the white Skylinesaust top and the denim shorts ...... well its me in avatar anyway so come n say hi ..... ive been recruited as one of the "promo girls" so i'll be there all day :D .... haha ive told or my mates ot come say hi .... keep me occupied :)

wonder why Nissans brought out that maroon red ...... Skylines resprayed in blood red looks ten times better ..... they are so nice :)

Browsing carpoint ........ get some nice cars on there ...... give me ideas.

    • 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?
