Vt Systems Car Audio and Security together with Security In Motion have just taken Australian SPL record in last months Autosalon in the DB Drags event. We are now trying to target the world record and hope to achieve this by Final Battle at Autosalon in Sydney in December 2007. We will have Australia's Loudest car on display In Brisbane, Melbourne, Newcastle and Sydney and also compete and demo.

We would be happy to answer any car audio and car security questions you may have, Vernon and Terence from VT Systems and Leon from Security In Motion will be there in person.

LOOK FOR THE "ICE AGE" VAN AND "ICE 2 THE MELTDOWN" VAN.

Hope to see some of you there.

From what i can tell VT Systems car is currently around the 161 db mark.

The Australian overall record is 164.8db.

Untill that number is reached or exceeded the record still remains in Queensland with John Wong.

Unless i am not up to date and the car has already hit around 165 in a DB Drag sanctioned event.

Yes that is the overall loudest, but the record for each year gets reset at the beginning of each year. By the time we get to AutoSalon Final Battle in December we dont see why we can't get 165 or higher, remembering ICEAGE 2 was not fully completed when we got 161.5db and that was using Standard off the shelf Crossfire XT 15's. This is a good starting point.

so do I bring my Bruel & Kaejar along :blush: (google that for those that have NO idea what it is..)

Hi Chris..this is Vernon from VT systems,no need for the B&K meter been there done that....The meter we have to use in Australian db drags is the termlab meter...

Regard from Vernon Terence Leon

Records dont get reset.

Current record stands at 164.8db.

Vernon and VT Systems are currently loudest for this year. Please post about records when they reach 164.9db thank you.

Just want to clear up a misunderstanding.From my conversations with Angelo from db drags Australia I understood that we hold the current Australian record in ss3-4 for the 2007 season...I inderstand completely that the overall record is 164.8...This car was around for a very short time with those numbers.....We will be around for a long time....We wont be one hit wonders....WE ARE ALSO THE LOUDEST EXISTING CAR (not including extreme) in Australia..and we are street registered.Other facts which might be of interest are that we are only using half the power and $450 subs...all crossfire..

sorry if we upset you that was not our intention...we are just stating facts...

Take care

Vernon

You didnt upset me, not even the slightest.

Yes it might be for this season, but it still hasnt hit above the SS3-4 record.

And i am not doubting your facts. I am a record holder myself. I would be seriously pissed off if someone tried to claim they were louder than me when really they are way off. Being the loudest existing car for the season is great and i am very happy that you are pushing the boundries of your class.

As i stated perhaps the topic needs to be changed to AUSTRALIAS LOUDEST CAR for the 2007 SEASON IN ITS CLASS. Overall loudest is still 164.8 and the record stands at that point in SS3-4.

And keep going mate, impressive impressive machine that car of yours is. I have no doubt that you will reach your goal eventually.

Good luck

    • Well, yes, every CU on the bus is available via the Consult port, but whether the scanner you are using is capable of talking to the TCU, the ABS/TCS modules, etc etc, is what is at question here. Many of them are only for engine codes. So, if you have one of those, you won't know if the ABS is having a bitch.
    • That's now. R chassis Skylines come from a time when the tolerance in the ADRs was a bit more....slack. My car, on 235/35-17, which is damn near the exact same size as the original 205/55-16, is pretty much bang on correct indicated speed across the whole legal range. That's demonstrated with constant speed run over 5km, and GPS speed. It's just the luck of the draw. My particular speedo head has to be the thing that is "calibrated" that way, because everything else (the diff ratio, the gearbox and the speedo drive**) are all same same as most other Skylines. **OK, so the speedo drive is a Navara unit to drive the R32's cable, not the electronic unit than an R33/4 would normally have with teh same gear on it. Otherwise, I applaud your OCD tendencies, and I would do the same if I needed to.
    • Not too sure, I believe the Nissan consult port does everything? Also just filled up the reservoir to full and the light is still on. The float seems to move up and down fine.
    • The speedo's can be very conservative, when my Mazda NC MX5 speedo is showing 118kph, the GPS, and a calibrated radar.... cop mate.....hits me at around 110kph +/- 1 or 2 kph, and that is on a 215/45 17, stock tyres size is 205/45 17 as well, so weirdly conservative with stock tyre size When my Commodore speedo red 116kph GPS had me at 110kph on 255/40 17, so again conservative Google says manufacturers need to set the speedo from 4 to 10% slower than actual road speed.....for safety.....and compliance  After doing some offset and clearance measurements to see what can fit the NC on 17x8 +40, without guard rolling or rubbing anything at my current ride height, I've decided that when my tyres are toast, I'm going to fit 225/45 17 and see where that gets me IRT actual speed of my speedo and GPS/radar From the online calculator I should be still be doing around 5kph under an actual 110kph when the speedo is showing 110kph My ADHD requires that when I'm doing 110kph on the speedo, that the actual road speed is actually really close to that, and not alot slower And going from 205 to 225 still keeps the car within the %/mm allowable in the NSW vehicle rules and regulations, which is nice, as long as I'm looking at the latest version that is.....LOL https://www.nsw.gov.au/sites/default/files/2021-02/RMS-13.464-Light-vehicle-modifications-Vehicle-Standards-Information-No-6-November-2013.pdf
    • Take the value it measured as, and pick the closest range available that is above the reading on the screen.   Also, no point just testing the coils. Read what has been said again. You need to test all your wiring, everything.
