3rd. The Dyno operator did the run in 3rd for a reason unknown to me...

I mean I'm not overly experienced with dyno's as we don't use them but I was under the impression dyno runs were meant to be performed in a 1:1 gear ratio... hence 5th in an R34 GTR

:dry:

i was hoping to see some good lookin girls when i walked into autosalon but the first thing i saw was tosh's head! hahahahahaa. j/k - was good to bump into ya mate!

i liked it. few new things i've never seen before ie. lan games, 3on3 bball, beach volleyball etc. was good.

calibre of cars were good also. nice to see some hyper honda's there with k20 and b18 engine conversions.

bel garage was impressive ....... evo 9 circuit battle car is awesome - well done guys.

lots of bnr34's around which is what i like to see - is it me or are they everywhere now? :) was crossing the road going home the other night and a nice white one, lowered, stock looking went straight by me - crazy.

eh? it was a public show wasn't it? jeebuz.

Funny enough it was exactly as NISMO quoted in their specs on the car, 500ps, what we expected.

What you need to remember is the Z-tune was not built for an outright power figure & still meets all emissions requirements.

We only put it on the dyno at the owners request to get a before & after reading.

The torque figure was what we were interested in & that was pretty impressive.

There were some very high power figures produced throughout the day, congrats to the owners.

Was great to see everybody that came to say hello & thanks to everyone for their help at the end of the day.

Couldn't have done it without you.

My head is still thumping BOOM, BOOM, BOOM.

Cheers

As soon as I got home I crashed.. I had the worst headache!

Yeah its was a pretty good show. good to see nice skylines in there. specially my dream Z-Tune :dry:

I was there with the Team MotionZ. here are some pics but with my phone quality :)

haha I was looking at that car.. and the alarm went off when I was checking out the dyno sheet.. I ran away.. ahaha

321awkw, 430.5awhp, 1068.1Nm

damn that is nice. 320awkw is a very good figure. possibly even a little bit over the 500ps quoted. :dry: nice shaped curve too.

as for the run being in 3rd. the goal is to get as close to a 1:1 ratio as possible (which in a 34 is 5th gear). BUT most dynos in aus are rated only to 200kp/h so the primary concern is picking a gear that will not exceed 200kp/h, secondary concern is picking a gear at 1:1 ratio. The operator may not have been familiar with the 34 gearbox or diff ratios and probably didn't want to have to abort a run due to poor gear choice. I dont know whether or not it makes much (any?) difference. it's no big deal anyway.

nice to see you guys had the car there anyway. :)

    • End game is to: - Remove all the slop from old worn parts - Adjust setup so that the wheels actually fit and the car is drivable (currently it is not because of the extreme rubbing on the guards).   Progress over the last couple of days, removed the rear hubs! Next steps: - Buy bushings - Replace bushings/bearings on hub - Reinstall
    • Cracked deck  And other cam snap stuff   
    • A few random issues have popped up since my last update. My WMI pressure sensor failed within about 10 minutes of it seeing liquid. It was a 20$ China special, so I'm not surprised. My name brand replacement should arrive today.  My power steering assist also decided to crap out last weekend. The usual, works for about 60 seconds after starting the car then I lose it. I dusted off my old copy of NDS and connected to the HICAS ECU. Code 4 for assist solenoid.... I tested the solenoid and it's fine.  I knew the day where my HICAS ecu would crap out would come, and I welcome it. It was the last HICAS part on the car that is now in the bin. I've ordered an SSR and I will control the power steering solenoid with my Haltech ecu. It will be nice to have proper speed referenced assist again after all these years.   
    • Haha I just finished the last season of TPB: Jail last month. I'm happy they're still pumping out episodes.
