Guys,

Melbournes newest workshop Racingline Motorsports is holding a dyno day for SAU on Saturday 13th May.

We'll have a bbq and drinks down there on the day.

It is a 2WD dyno but front shafts can be removed for GTR's. Cost for a run is $40. Depending on numbers some minor tuning may also be available.

So when: Saturday May 13th from 11am

Where: Racingline Motorsports. 15 Bricker St Cheltenham. (Melways Ref 78 B10)

It will be a good opportunity for people who have attended the drag day the week before to check against the Dyno numbers to see how the times compare.

Cheers

This is an open event for non members. I will be attending and will have datalogit for those that may want their tune saved/copied.

I will also be trailing adjusting the R33 RB25 VCT rpm kickoff point. Apexi PowerFC users with Datalogit can adjust the VCT kick off point. This involves one dyno run with it on default settings, then another with it turned off. Then check out the comparison runs on each chart and where the power lines intersect is the ideal point for VCT kickoff. I don't expect to gain any power but just doing it as a demonstartion for fun purposes really.

Pretty straight forward to get to sounds alright. $40 for the single run only or do they do back-to-back power runs? Been to a few at other places and they usually do this as it takes jack all time and almost always get a better run the second time. Might have to pop in regardless of wether I stick it on the dyno or not.

We might also have some scales available if anyone is interested in corner weighting their car.

can you weigh a car using corner scales, or just find the weight distribution?

really interesting to see the weight of a GTS4, and not manufacturers dry weight....

    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go       
    • I don't get in here much anymore but I can help you with this.   The hole is a vent (air relief) for the brake proportioning valve, which is built into the master cylinder.    The bad news is that if brake fluid is leaking from that hole then it's getting past the proportioning valve seals.   The really bad news is that no spare parts are available for the proportioning valve either from Nissan or after market.     It's a bit of a PITA getting the proportioning valve out of the master cylinder body anyway but, fortunately, leaks from that area are rare in my experience. BTW, if those are copper (as such) brake lines you should get rid of them.    Bundy (steel) tube is a far better choice (and legal  in Australia - if that's where you are).
