how did adrian get it when ethan got 193rwkws? :P

I call "turbo-off".

Ethan and Adrian, (and RBFIRE with 197kw for that matter) should be recquired to have their turbo's removed and dismantled to check if they are indeed stock.

The only other way would be to just inspect the exterior and make sure that it is the original housing.

If you do this, I will gladly put up my turbo, which was high flowed by GCG, for inspection.

For interest sake, I made 205+ kw and was on the board for quite a while before I noticed that it had been scrubbed and left blank, only to be replaced by Doods' 185kw, and then pipped by Adrian's phenominal 190kw.

ps When I say me, I am talking on behalf of my Wife (Humbla), who was interested in giving the car a run.

The mix up was due to Elbee/Humbla's figure of 205 being put up in the stock turbo R33 GTS-T category. It was then removed when it was made known that it was a hi-flowed turbo. Therefore any previous high figures were not recorded, and I assume that ranicx's 193rwkw figure was "lost" as a result.

was a lil od.. although i guess quite a few cars went through during the day so easy to get things mixed up

I don't think the result was necessarily a mix up, but there have been some strange happenings with this friendly "Dyno Day".

Gday Adrian.

ah yeh that'd make sence.. ah well doesnt bother me too much. would be nice for my car to give back to me for once, lol :P

OMG!!!

was buster really there?!?!?! i got to uas around 10am... how could i have missed him :P

Read the previous posts by Buster. He said he was at a soccer game I believe.

I didn't see him, you didn't see him, I didn't see his name on the board soooooo ???

The question still remains as to whether Adrian's win was kosher or not.

You wouldn't want to go up against the "Bezerkley Boyz" now would you ?

I disagree. There was a mixup as I am sure that ranixc's figure was up in the R33 GTR-T stock category, but them after Humbla's car had its run, it was (mistakenly) put up as the highest stock R33 GTS-T's reading with 205rwkw.

Since no one was recording all the dyno run figures (apart from the highest on the whiteboard), this resulted in the mix up, and subsequently the following highest figures were put up on the board.

All of this hoo-haa could be easily solved with a better method of recording the highest results. eg. A selected SAU person could have a bit of paper with the highest results which he updates as people submit their dyno sheets to him. This would remove the accidental erasing of people's results.

Anyway, its all good!

So there was a mixup ?

Who decided whether Humbla's car was, or was not stock?

Who should have won ? ranicx, rbfire, humbla or good old what's his name ?

ps And by the way primordial, all is not good.

I was looking after the whiteboard for quite some time................then around 3pm i had to go.

looks like it turned to shit after that?

I'm almost certain that the guys at UAS had sheets for each car, and Adam had the category each car was in, by simply asking the owner of each car what category it was in. from that i think we can determine an accurate winner from each class.

    • So stock ECU does not like anything above 10 psi?  That Nistune one is just for "try" if it will be any different, I know it need to be tune for that. I know but YOU may know about these problem but i/we dont. They few little Skylines here let alone people who know anything about tham so that is why iam asking here  
    • So now we have a radiator with no attachments whatsoever. It lifts up with a particularly tight spot between the drivers side air box mount and the lower radiator outlet, but if you've got this far you will sort that too. This is the lower mounts with the rad out so you can see where the rubber bushes go, it is a straight shot upwards Done! Assembly is the reverse of disassembly, with blood less likely to be shed.
    • Right, onto the second last trick. The Air Con condenser is mounted to the front of the radiator and stays in the car when the radiator is removed. There are 2x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the condenser to the radiator, remove those The bottom of the condenser is attached to the radiator with clips. You need to lift the condenser out of those clips and clear (up, then forward). f**ked if  could work out how to do that last bit with the front bumper on. I hope you can, and you share the trick.  Bumper removal probably deserves its own thread one day once I've recovered the will to live, but basically you need to remove the wheels, front inner guard liners (clips and 10mm headed bolts), the self tapper between the guard and the bumper at the rearmost point of the bumper (same as an R32 that bit), any remaining clips at the top/front of the grill, an absolute bastard design with a plate that holds the top of the bumper above the headlight each side (only 1 bolt which is tricky to get to, but the plate catches 2 places on the bumper and must be removed....carefully!) and push clips between the bumper and guard under the headlight. If you've done all that you will be faced with wiring for the fog lights on both sides and in ADM Q50 RS at least, 4 nasty tight plugs on the driver's side for the ADAS stuff. So, the clips at the bottom look like this on drivers side (looking from the front) And on the passenger side (also from the front), you can see this one is already out Clearance on both of these are super tight; the condenser needs to move up but the upper rad support mount prevents that, and the radiator can't move down far because it is (rubber) mounted. Once you achieve the impossible and drop the condenser off those mounts so it does not stop the rad moving, you are good to go
    • OK, next the shroud needs to come off and there are a couple of tricks. Firstly, there is a loom from near the passenger side headlight to the fans, coolant temp sensor etc and there is no plug to undo.  In my case I was OK to leave the shroud on top of the engine so I just undid the passenger side fan plug and about 10 of the clips which gave enough free wire to put it aside. The fan plugs were super tight, the trick I used was a small falt screwdriver to push down on the release tab, then a larger flat screwdriver to lever the plug out of the fan unit....be careful with how much force you apply! If you need to remove the shroud altogether for some reason you will have to deal with all the plugs (tight) and clips (brittle)....good luck. I removed all of the clips and replaced them with cable ties that I will just cut next time. Also, in the Red Sport / 400R at least, the intake heat exchanger reservoir hose is bolted to the shroud in 2 places with 10mm headed bolts; so remove them (the hose stays in the car; no need to undo it at the t fittings down at the radiator lower mount. Once you've dealt with the HX hose and the wiring loom, there are 3x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the shroud to the radiator; remove those.   The shroud then lifts out of the bottom mounts where it sits on the radiator, up and onto the engine out of the way.
