ok guys shes a bit rough at the moment, but wouldnt take much to get it back to its former glory

there has been big cash spent on engine, turbo, trans and clutch and can run high boost quite easily although it hasnt so far

the engine, box clutch and turbo have probly around 7000 k's on them on extremly low boost and always run on the best oils, body has 115 000 k's

ok now for wat is rooted, the bonnet is f**ked due to a minor bingle with a hilux, as is the front bar and intercooler (although intercooler can easily be fixed) the rear bar needs to be patched as the fibreglass on one side doesnt look to flash, rear windscreen needs replacement... as there isnt one due to some f**kwit cocksmoker smashing it and the boot lid has a small dent with a little paint missing.

i know it doesnt look to good at the moment but i have guestimated total repair costs to be around $3500 and thats to have it looking as good as it ever did

im open to reasonable offers, please pm me your offer as u never know :)

*edit* at the moment im getting offers around the 10 - 12 k mark, if anyone can beat them its theres

first up was the rear skirt, was drunk one morning and trying to reverse out my driveway to go to work, reversed into a branch that had fallen off the tree next to were i park and it shatterd the fibreglass

then i was driving home after doing the shopping one night in peak hour traffic wen my misses flipped out, so instead of lookin at the road i turned to face her then bang, strait up the ass of a hilux, wich f**ked the front bar bonnet and intercooler

and last up i was parked out the front of a resturant (wich also happens to be the local hoon hangout) and i was having dinner with my in-laws, came out to find my back windscreen smashed

and now coz of all the loans iv taken out to build the motor i cant afford to fix the body, so im stuck with the option to sell it as it is

and yes i wrote the drift pig on the bonnet lol as the car was built for drifting

    • 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?
