we didnt attend due to our dyno time being held up by GReddy international didnt get the car loaded until 7.30 and due to the fact the M4 was packed and WSID was full we decided that going out there to wait in line all night for 1 pass was not worth it.

ahh well...the car is ready to run.

Greddy! those bastards! lol. c'mon paul tell the story. :closedeyes:

at least there is always next week.

hi paul

congrats those awsome numbers!! (we hope to get somewhere near there on the new engine but all i have is hope not proof!! hehe)

can you tell me the fastest time down the strip on low mounts??

cheers russ

hi russ

those numbers were betttered last night with an easy 487AWKW @ 25psi 11.5:1 AFR

my best so far is a 10.36 @ 134 not too bad for a beginner, just when i started to get the hang of it the car broke (first the 2530 turbo's then on the first outing with the new GT-RS's the oil pump) which puts us where we are today. I see your time, you must run altered final drive or use a dog box as your MPH seems a little high for 400awkw (with a full weight car), or the fact you can shift the car better/quicker might be the case.

Arthur Eyre in NZ has ran 10.17 on 2540's but with slicks and NOS which i am told is the No.1 time for a "bolt on" turbo GTR (low mounts).

You guys are bloody legends who can obviously drive the pants off the GTR...to be put in the same league as you guys is an honour.

But...ill smash your ET and MPH...hehe

Richard, GReddy International (USA) and Japan ran a conference in the city on Tuesday...on Wednesday they came to CRD to use the dyno and demonstrate a couple of their products namely the Emanage ECU and the Vmanage V-Tec controller for the Honda. They tied up Jim's dyno all day (bastards!), but were treated to a couple of "twoogle" runs after they were finished.

here's a video of two of the dyno runs

bloody awsome paul!!

487 on low mounts, i love it, would have awsome power right throught the range!

and yeah we have a ppg dog box, mindyou mark is super slick on the change, my best is 10.8. hehe!!

you new setup should smash into the nine's if you get a good shot.

cheers russ hope to seeya round

cool. i'll bet they were pretty impressed with the standard of your car. :unsure:

yeah the fella from the US was impressed...was quitely hoping for an invitation to race it over there (all expenses paid of course!)

Thanks Russ,

487 and still more to come, plenty left in the tune and the cam timing hasn't even been looked at yet. Jim thought that was a nice safe level to run it down the track a few times so i could get a little used to it.

I knew there had to be something special about your combo (Mark + dogbox = 137MPH)

Stacey shares the car with me so it has to be a synchro type gearbox (she believes she can't drive a dog engagement gearbox), so this is holding us back a little.

Should be good for 9's with everything coming together in the run.

thats very good!! it apears youi dont need a cdi hehehe. cant wait to see it run down the track!!! haha yeah you didnt miss much at wsid. well exept some textbook "how not to drag a gtr" driving. where a dude got tank slappers and kept into it and wrote it off into the opposite wall!

Big numbers and very tidy looking car...but i couldnt hear the gate???? :blink:

We will be setting the world on fire tomm. night at WSID with the assistance of my expertly equipped and huge-weaponed pit crew.

It will all go well with PB's run, tyres fried and bitches flocking to us.

Fixed for accuracy :dry:

Why do the revs sound like they're climbing stairs?

This effect on older, low resolution ECU's was due to bad Cell <> Cell interpolation. I would think (guess) in this case, its an effect of the retarder unit on the dyno. :P

    • Bit of a pity we don't have good images of the back/front of the PCB ~ that said, I found a YT vid of a teardown to replace dicky clock switches, and got enough of a glimpse to realize this PCB is the front-end to a connected to what I'll call PCBA, and as such this is all digital on this PCB..ergo, battery voltage probably doesn't make an appearance here ; that is, I'd expect them to do something on PCBA wrt power conditioning for the adjustment/display/switch PCB.... ....given what's transpired..ie; some permutation of 12vdc on a 5vdc with or without correct polarity...would explain why the zener said "no" and exploded. The transistor Q5 (M33) is likely to be a digital switching transistor...that is, package has builtin bias resistors to ensure it saturates as soon as base threshold voltage is reached (minimal rise/fall time)....and wrt the question 'what else could've fried?' ....well, I know there's an MCU on this board (display, I/O at a guess), and you hope they isolated it from this scenario...I got my crayons out, it looks a bit like this...   ...not a lot to see, or rather, everything you'd like to see disappears down a via to the other side...base drive for the transistor comes from somewhere else, what this transistor is switching is somewhere else...but the zener circuit is exclusive to all this ~ it's providing a set voltage (current limited by the 1K3 resistor R19)...and disappears somewhere else down the via I marked V out ; if the errant voltage 'jumped' the diode in the millisecond before it exploded, whatever that V out via feeds may have seen a spike... ....I'll just imagine that Q5 was switched off at the time, thus no damage should've been done....but whatever that zener feeds has to be checked... HTH
    • I think Fitmit had some, have a look on there (theyre Australian as well)
    • Hah, fair enough! But if you learn with this one you can drive any other OEM manual. No modern luxury features like auto rev-matching or hillstart assist to give you a false sense of confidence. And a heavy car with not that much torque so it stalls easily. 
    • Actually, I'd say all three are the automatic option. Just the different trim levels. The manual would be RSFS, no?
