Yes it is my R33 GTR with 143.4 or 144 kw @ the wheels. I was very disappointed when I went home and checked againts my other sheets. Then a brain wave hit me AVO was done in 3rd gear..... 175kw 2 months ago......

I was on the dyno straight after you and I thought 'whoo hoo I should make more than the GTR, this will make my kw figure look more impressive' jokingly after we knew your GTR was obviouly not making what it should.

Then I had problems too and only made 137.4kw :D I was disappointed too. But hey there is always next time after all the problems are fixed. :)

What key ring?? :D

It's an SAU VIC Member keyring / bottle opener.

Being in the wrong gear under "shootout mode" guidelines and correct dyno operation isn't mean to affect power output but every time I've seen a car dynoed in another gear the values are whacko, so dyno'ing in 3rd does skew the results unfortunately, which could explain why it was higher on AVO's dyno (makes sense now).

The standard limp mode could be triggered by a few things, one of the main sensors fried should do it.

Consult should tell you what sensor is toast. Look for the obvious ones, both AFM signals, water temp signal.

Well i found out today that RANK ROTARY dyno is Actually Out i showed Pete @ rank

the RE dyno sheet and he said:

"well that confirms it i had so many cars reading lower than what they should My dyno is out of wack by a bit"

So IM REAL HAPPY :) 238.8 rwkw and my engine needs a rebuild Thats Crazy power for the rb20. Once i rebuild should have way more MAYBE RB25 on the way!!!!!!

Anyway i never got a key ring are they only for brand new members?

when are you giving them out?

i should got one off ya at the GOR cruise....

Hey big thanks to CHrisman for introducing me to some great people and RCHOO and other members thanks for havin a chat to me as a new member i can really appreciate you guys helping out with recommendations etc...

A great turn out to a fantastic day! Was a very successful event I feel! Good work to the organizers and Ray and the guys at RE for doing such a good job.

Was super disappointed with my cars output but then again I knew the car wasn't right and hasn't felt it for a while, that's why I popped it on. Issues with AFR, Knock and Boost. Gotta stop putting off fix's so on that note, dropping the car a RPM tomorrow for some TLC. See you all at the next dyno day :D

I received them just before the Dyno Day. Your on a list to receive one as you have already renewed this year. Be patient, you will get one :D

yeah and a boost controller that works maybe :rant:

I also had a good day....

My car went on near the end of the day when most people had left, was happy with my 140kW or so. Last dyno day I had 128kW, so the batmbl split dump and metal cat has added a bit.

I also was trying Boost 98 octane 10% ethanol fuel for my run. I know this has been debated before but i guess now we have evidence that YOU CANNOT RUN BOOST 98 FUEL in a lightly modded car if it is not SPECIFICALLY TUNED for the fuel. My AFRs where between 1 and 2 points too lean throughout the rev range. I'll post the dyno graphs up later.

But I do recommend that next time we keep a list of who is next on the dyno etc... I didn't mind staying around all day (til 5pm or so since 11.30am) to have my turn but I know that some people were getting a bit sick of waiting.

Cheers,

Rhett

Yeah Rhett i thought to myself on the day when you told be bout the 10% ethanol thing

that there's no way id run that in my car

i had a magna that almost died on that stuff

my afr were high too i showed my tuner and he said they were high but he said when he

tuned my car he made sure the were spot on so maybe that dyno afr's are out??? :whistling::P

he said he trusted his one cause he used a motec Top Of The Range Equipment???

    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
    • Well they got my money but they are not getting my gearbox ! 
    • It's needed for rolling idle up, and I think it is a decider on VCT also.
    • I mean, not really. Link ECU's can absolutely still have errors from the ECU thinking it's getting a sensor it's not expecting. I would imagine the speed at the ECU level in Nistune does absolutely nothing anyway? I assume the ECU does not do any fancy TC stuff with regards to front+rear wheel speed or anything of that like anyway. Someone who uses Nistune may be more fluent in it. 
    • Not yet quite as bad as what we've seen a Jim Berry clutch do in an R32 GTR though when it decided to cut a chassis rail in half... Still very very gnarly and a great reason to avoid.
