I saw it, one of the first runs on Saturday.

The rear end wasnt tied down tight enough (I think) and the car moved forward and climbed the front wheel chocks.

It didnt instill me with any confidence in the dyno team, not sure what the final figure was for the car, but on that first run they only hit around 200kw (hate to think what could have happened if the car had lots of power)

200kw would be from wheel spin.. considering the car made 576rwkw

Doms rotor should have around 400, I have seen it run 360 with problems and I know there were a few dramas with the dyno over the weekend. I didnt see it run but I know there were a few complaints about the tie down situation.

Either way it was a good show all the same, with some great cars and bikes too. Would be nice to see some more hi tech representation next year tho....

Congrats cara for your trophies and dyno results,

Congrats also to SLED who had an amazing bike and a 34GTR at the show... lucky bugger. I was only told after the show that you were the same SLED on this forum!!

Yeah thanks Martin....I did check out your ride and the Sniper alongside yours, very nice.........would've liked to see you both pull a fuse and do a dyno run. The GTR's would've been a good crowd puller.

Congrats Cara & Pete on your trophies.

Pete - did you put the R34 GTR on the dyno?

Thanks Dave, would've been in it if they had a 4WD dyno..........I can't pull a fuse like a 32 GTR, I have to drop a shaft as well. :P

I would have if I wasn't working the whole weekend!! I ran it two days earlier at Southern Hi-Tech and had the dyno sheet on display instead.

R32 GTR... tuned at Southern Hi-Tech = 326.8kw at wheels (6/12/07)

Wow, I just notice the date on the fine print.......you gotta be happy with 326.

Congrats Cara, so what else do you have to do to make the magical 200rwkw you want (while still NA)?

umm...well the jets are actually 55 hp and not 75 hp which i origainlly was told ( i was given the wrong ones) sooo it would be a matter of getting my hands on that set and then doing a re tune to make sure everything is all good, and not running to lean or rich.....

but i have no more nos at the moment :P

and there is nothing coming up that i will need a full bottle for! (maybe in march/april tho when Debbie and Gary Myers come over for a one day event they were talking about at Gazzanats)

I would like to get some stage 1 or stage 2ncams in aswell as that will help with the n/a figure oh and a bigger fuel pump too lol :P

Yes pete, was very happy with 326.... I normally run 18psi which is just over 300 at the wheels but decided to wind it up to 21psi and see what happened!

I do have a few upgrades on the RB tho... :P

    • looking for some help and maybe some insight on others experience with a new LSD. R34 GT ran and drove beautifully, but always alot of grip loss due to the open R200 rear end, so I just installed a new 1.5 LSD way into the stock open R200 for a ER34. Simple. Everything seemed right. I test drove for the first time this weekend. as I started to back out the garage the first time slowly with tires straight it sounded and felt like I had a loose or half disconnected drive shaft...that was clucking around loose and shaking entire vehicle, and making it feel like the trans clutch was spontaneously slipping then grabbing very roughly while just letting out pedal slowly. I backed it out went to pull forward with the same noise, shake and slip grab feeling with hesitation, I turned the tires to back out more and then pulled ahead some same thing but worst because of added wheel resistance (which that I expected) puzzled … pulling it back in checking everything over and finding nothing wrong, I tried it the next day. same thing, couldn’t believe how it shook everything again making a terrible noise and making it feel like the trans clutch was slipping and grabbing, but I got it out of garage into the driveway, got it straight, drove forward and then reveres a few times in a straight line everything shaking , causing what felt like clutch slip and grab every time, sounded like right behind front driver tire and I could feel it in the floor board with my feet,... worst right when beginning to let clutch pedal out to engage slightly, shuttering and sounding terrible along the way…I managed to slowly get down the road, babying it the whole way, once I was rolling (out of 1st) seemed to be better and between shifts, then clutch felt closer to normal…not slip/ grab etc., but back down to any stop, straight road or turning, same thing. Made no difference if all tires were straight or if I was turning. All other gauge read out correct. with in 2 miles as planned I reached the empty parking lot and performed the break in procedure that came with lsd, essentially to drive in a figure 8 a bunch.  Did this, binding chattering, and shaking the car the whole way. I drove it back home seemed somewhat normal once I was in straight line and past 10 mph or so, and I know it will “bind” on corners and cause some tires squeal when turning especially from a stop, but when I begin to move it still causes what feels like the trans clutch to slip and jerk badly as well as shaking the entire car, and sounds terrible, that I didn’t expect. I used the fluid they supplied with LSD kit and did the breaking, planning to change fluid as they suggest after breaking, but wondering will it get smoother or less aggressive with use? maybe a 1.5 is just too aggressive for normal road driving?   I have a LSD that I put in my 71 cuda when I restored it, with amazing smooth , quite yet effective results. Different style LSD but that ones a joy to drive. maybe expecting too much from this R200?

    • Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4
