I will be coming on the night but won't be dynoing the car. I 'estimate' that I'll be answering many questions and meeting many people.

Everyone will make at least 296rwkw with their SAU sticker. Can you please bring mine on the night Karen? I want it for the drive home lol.

As for no two dynos being the same...that is why Shootout mode was developed, so that there would be consistancy between dynos no matter what the ambiant temps or air densities were.

Good to see your coming Dan...

Guys one week to go... Dont forget the actin starts at 6pm..

Ill be there with both cameras and will cut a small clip of the event to help cross promote the night with the club...

OK UPDATE:

I have been and visited the workshop and meet Richard in person. I have to say it looks great. Their workshop and work eithic is awsome.

We have more parking room then you can poke a stick at. We will have plenty of standing room for the dyno. Plus the boys their know their rb engines well..

While i was there they were dyno'ing an r32 GTR. Stock as a rock with a simple cat back exhaust and an AVC-R installed (runing 0.9 bar) and it hit 230rwkw... So that sounds to be to be about right to me in terms of a true figure.

They had 5 skylines in their workshop and a VL turbo and a couple of S15's in the nissan family. On top of that they had 4-5 cars out the front also booking in for work. These are busy boys, their workman ship looks good to me and they are very friendlly.

Anyways i am happy about the location and hope to see all of you next thursday night.

IMPORTANT: Please look at the updated map in the very first post. Its easy to find once you get there. Is set back from the road in an industrial area. So we can make lots of noise.

Thanks Col

NOTE: Richard thinks we may be able to squeze a few more cars on the dyno and any R33/34 gtr's that want to run. Richard will drop your front drive shaft for you and put it back in (10 minute job with a hoist).... So the guys on the list are going on the rollers and maby a few more if there is time...

Cheers Col

I would estimate that i would be putting out stuff all, but a stock car would do that really. :) not going to embariss myself.

My car is 100% stock, I just want to see what I am starting at, see the graph so I can compare it with future mods. Now most people cant laugh at you cause their cars started stock once.

Heya guys...think i will pop by and have a lookie at the event n meet up with fellow skyliners...will i be able to dyno my car if there are available slots? :D
I totally forgot bout this thread! Count me in if theres a free spot! Eitherway will be there...

Jon

Yeah guys the list is full but do not worry... Richard said we will run as many as possible...

Just turn up and if there is a drop out or time to spare you guys will be more than welcome to run...

Cheer Col

Dont forget guys we need some of you there from 6pm... Ill be videoing the event and taking pictures to cut togther for a promo dvd....

I will a be a spectator for this one, got to renew membership Karen.

See you there.

Would organizing a meet up for the southerners be outa the question?

I'd be in for a meet up on the southside....will need to get a head start though to beat the peak hr traffic...

    • The final part arrived today to un-clampify and simplify the intake Who would have though a 1/2" hose stainless bulkhead fitting designed for below waterline bilge pumps would be what I needed Test fit on a 3" offcut I had laying around to see if it would work, and it worked a treat All going well the intake will be on its "final version" tomorrow 
    • Good luck on the weekend mate
    • Must have been an absolute nightmare to drive when the power steer was out, the rack ratio/wheel size/caster is all set up for power assistance
    • Welcome to SAU, what are you looking at buying?
    • I checked the injectors again (1 and 2, since they’re easiest to access) to make sure they weren’t clogged. Even though the entire fuel system had been cleaned, I wanted to be certain. Everything looked clean, so I reinstalled and connected everything. When I started the car to confirm everything was okay, it immediately revved up high, so I shut it off straight away. I checked to see if I’d missed a vacuum hose or something, but everything was connected. On the second attempt, the car ran without the high idle, but I noticed a distinct “compressed air” sound coming from the engine bay. Tracing the sound, I pushed injector #6 forward slightly and the noise stopped — it turned out it wasn’t seated properly, despite the fuel rail being bolted down. While holding it in place, the car idled steadily without stalling and ran for over 5 minutes. At this point, I pulled all six injectors out just in case I hadn’t seated them correctly or dirt had gotten onto the O-rings. Unfortunately, I discovered that I had damaged 3 out of 6 injectors (the OEM 270cc ones) during installation. So yes, this was my fault. Since only the pintle caps were damaged, I’ve ordered a Fuel Injector Service Kit from NZEFI to refurbish them. In the meantime, I reinstalled my new injectors – the car now idles fine for over 15 minutes without stalling. I have not attempted to drive it so far. It’s not perfect yet, as it hesitates when the throttle is pressed, but it’s a big improvement. Unplugging the IACV with the new injectors idles at around 800rpm, even with the IACV screw tightened fully. But this is probably due to tune.
