it seems like dynodynamics on shootoutmode is the popular choice for a dyno readout but ive heard recently that autosalon changed their dyno to a mainline dyno . which one is more accurate?

two different dyno's (mainline and dyno dynamics) in the same city (around 5 klms apart), two days apart with similar barometric conditions. read within less than 1% of each other. With the same vehicle.

Not bad eh!....pretty acurate

and yeah, just on that... the Cabin group have been using mainline dynos since 2002/3.

So its far from "recent" news

Where?..which dynos? Anytime I have seen the same car go on a dynolog and then a dynamics, the dynamics always reads about 10-15% higher.

Croydons...then Autosalon....and it was Stacey's car...so i should know.

I didn't say you didn't...but I think Cabin must have a 'special' version of the Dynolog software.

I know of a wrx that made 20% more power on CRD's dyno in the afternoon than it made on a Dynolog in the morning. There were no changes in between. Had the same tank of juice and all.

All the other dynologs I've seen read very similarly (comparing the same cars on different days)

did you record the temps on that day?

you said morning and arvo... so my bet there could have been a reasonable temp difference.

end of the day, does it really matter? anyone can can get any figure if you need too

Yep...it was slightly warmer in Syd than the gong...only a degree or 2.

Yep..I agree

Well how does this grab ya...Carlos from Millenium Motorsports ran 599kw at Queensland 2 days before Autosalon on his Mainline dyno...and at the same boost levels ran 601kw on Autosalon's dyno.....he must have the "special" software too!

Mainline dyno's even run the same no matter if its 2WD or 4WD...we proved it in front of hundreds of people at Final Battle...there was 1kw difference between the runs.

I think what Mik is trying to say is Croydon's dyno is happy...if its so happy i should be rolling almost 520AWKW......i think im gonna have a word to Jim about my deflated power figures.

I Have seen IDENTICAL results on two different dynologs equate to 40awkw more on two different dynodynamics dynos in an unchanged trim/tune. Just my experience.

highly experienced acredited operators should not have such a discrepancy...as essentially the dyno's use similar hardware.

    • I'd be very surprised if you can buy new OEM mats. But if you can, I want some too!  Do you have links to the variations you found? Also, where are you located? I found that Nengun is happy to list items to purchase but when you do buy them you'll get an email that it's actually discontinued. As far as I know the variations in floor mats are different colour schemes as well as automatic and manual having a slightly different shape. The automatic ones fit into a manual car without issues, but I think you'd have trouble fitting the other way around. I have photos that show the shape difference if you care. FWIW I bought sets of used floor mats in decent condition at yahoo auctions.
    • Hi 🙋‍♂️. Just bought my Unicorn but the interior need some minor work so it would match my expectations ;). I noticed it is hard to get used oem floor mats in good condition so i started to dig if there's any chance to buy set of new ones. I found two websites - nengun and amayama and it looks like one can still buy factory new floor mats in Japan, but thers a small issue. Some mats (i assume genuine, oem ones) are marked as G4900 and these are "discontinued". The ones you can buy are marked as G4911 but i have no idea if these are also oem, made by other producer or some lower quality replacements that looks entirely different. Can anyone help? 😃  P.s. there is also some strange indication - 0V005, 0V015 and 0V505. Any idea what does it mean? Would appreciate any help with this 🙏
    • Hi, Marek here 🙋‍♂️. I finally fulfilled my longtime dream - recently bought Stagea and now waiting for it to arrive in Poland. There's only few of these in my country, and one of the owners  recommended mi this forum as a source of all the info i'd need since now i own one  so here i am.  
    • Version 1 aluminium airbox is.......not acceptable No pics as I "didn't like the look.....alot" Even after all my "CAD", and measurements, the leg near the fusebox just didn't sit right as it ended up about 10mm long and made the angle of the dangle look wrong, the height was a little short as well, meh, I wasn't that confident that Version 1 was going to be an instant winner I might give Version 2 another go, there's plenty of aluminium at work, but, after having in on and off a few times, and laying in the old OEM airbox without the new pod filter and MAF, there may be an option to modify the OEM air box and still use the Autoexe front cover and filter.... maybe This >  Needs to fit in here, but using the panel, and not the pod, the MAF will need to fit in the airbox though> I'm thinking as the old OEM box and Autoexe cover that is sitting in the shed is just sitting around doing nothing, and they are relatively abundant and cheap to replace if I mess it up and need another, it may well fit with some modifications to how the Autoexe brackets mounts to the rad support, and some dremiling to move it get in there, should give me some more room for activities, as I don't want to move the MAF and affect the tune Sealing the hole it requires to stick it in the air box is simple, a tight fit and some pinch weld will seal it up tight  I am calling this a later problem though
    • and it ends up being already priced in as though you're just on 91RON without any ethanol. Car will lose a bit of economy as the short and long term fuel trims bring down the AFR back to stoich or whatever it is for cruise/idle for the engine.
