Please Ban the next person that asks questions about the power they got from a dyno run/tune.

the arguements about how much power it made stock or, this dyno is happy and this one is sad is getting as bad as the f*king missfire at 4500rpm on boosted R33 uleh, or flutters bro type threads.

DYNO results have the following important information.

Boost v RPM graph - to see what RPM the boost gets to max set boost level and if it stays stable etc.

A:F ratio v RPM graph - to see if it's lean or rich and at what rev range.

torque v RPM graph - to see what revs the max torque is produced to work out what revs to change at to drop back in to the meaty part of the torque curve.

how many times have people said "a dyno is a tuning tool"

never sinks in.

the forum is flooded by morons going "I only got 180rwkw with 12psi and others got 200rwkw on same psi"

BAN BAN BAN!!!

You're always gunna have people less experienced than yourself asking apparent silly questions.

Part of life and this forum...and the learning experience

i plead not guilty to the above but have asked dumb stuff in the past.

I think a 'Ban' is a bit exsessive.

Just don't read it.

Every question must look a bit stupid to someone like Nismoid31 or SydneyKid but the still have the patience to give advice or point them in the right direction.

Have a beer and put your feet up :thumbsup:

Take a deeeep breath, count to 10.....(1..2...3...) ahhh, thats better

It's not the noobs.

it's people that have already been here and have read it all.

it's not the noobs that say "I have a stock skyline, can I get a tune"

that's a fair noob question.

but comparing dyno figures... and lets admit it, there is a whole shit load of it that goes on here.

BAN.

No warning.

they go to refresh, BANG.. "you have been banned for life you f*king clown." message appears.

Seat of the Pantaloons dyno figure is just as acurate as a dyno power figure.

it doesn't mean anything anyway.

And this children, is how to have a rant. Please pay particular attention 1) controlled use of swearing in order to maximize it's effect, 2) Use of fact's to back the initial argument/premise of the rant and 3) general reference to external threads at which the rant is aimed.

If you are having a rant, do it properly.

Nice work GTST :thumbsup:

    • You Gregged a whole racetrack!?
    • Look for broken wire or bad connector at the motor. Might not be it, but is worth starting there, as it is easy.
    • Hi everyone, I’m having an issue with my R32 GT-R. Sometimes, when the car goes over a bump or experiences some vibration, the 4WD warning light comes on the dashboard. When I check the code from the control unit in the trunk, it shows Code 19 – ETS Motor. However, everything seems to be working fine — if I turn off the engine and restart the car, the light goes away and everything functions normally. Has anyone experienced this before? Where should I start troubleshooting this issue? Thanks in advance!
    • I'm back from the dyno - again! I went looking for someone who knew LS's and had a roller dyno, to see how it shaped up compared to everything else and confirm the powerband really is peaking where Mr Mamo says it should. TLDR: The dyno result I got this time definitely had the shape of how it feels on the road and finally 'makes sense'. Also we had a bit more time to play with timing on the dyno, it turns out the common practice in LS is to lower the timing around peak torque and restore it to max after. So given a car was on the dyno and mostly dialled in already, it was time for tweaking. Luis at APS is definitely knowledgable when it came to this and had overlays ready to go and was happy to share. If you map out your cylinder airmass you start seeing graphs that look a LOT like the engine's torque curve. The good thing also is if you map out your timing curve when you're avoiding knock... this curve very much looks like the inverse of the airmass curve. The result? Well it's another 10.7kw/14hp kw from where I drove it in at. Pretty much everywhere, too. As to how much this car actually makes in Hub Dyno numbers, American Dyno numbers, or Mainline dyno numbers, I say I don't know and it's gone up ~25kw since I started tinkering lol. It IS interesting how the shorter ratio gears I have aren't scaled right on this dyno - 6840RPM is 199KMH, not 175KMH. I have also seen other printouts here with cars with less mods at much higher "kmh" for their RPM due Commodores having 3.45's or longer (!) rear diff ratios maxing out 4th gear which is the 1:1 gear on the T56. Does this matter? No, not really. The real answer is go to the strip and see what it traps, but: I guess I should have gone last Sunday...
    • 310mm rotors will be avilable from Australia, Japan, and probably a few other places. Nothing for the front can be put on the back.
