Mine won't be running on the dyno during the show, however it was run yesterday in 37.5 degree heat and reeled off a PB of 326.8 kw at wheels on high boost (21psi).

Good luck cara, especially with the new addition to your car!

nice pics

the place looks empty but

Yeah the pics are a bit decieving possibly due to the way they were taken..........the place is pretty full though.

Some of the cars were moved around during dyno runs so that may explain some empty spaces when I took the pics.

saw both your beasts, was very impressed by both, have seen the bike dow the bay a few times.

cara, what does yours put out now with the nos?

went and had a look today.

quite a nice selection of cars on display.

saw both of sleds toys, that bike is incredible.

had a quick chat to cara while i was there, i think it made 160ish with NAWSSSSS.

AWESOME, AWESOME, AWESOME!!!!!

Thanks Cara and congrats to you too.......171 is killer for your NA!!!

congrats to all of you. Cara, thats some decent power for a NA, do you know how much more you can actually go before you need to start looking at internal work? I would have thought that would be getting pretty close to max. Congrats again to all though.

Oh, i heard something about Dom's rotor launching off the dyno or something? ANyone see it and can elaborate?

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)

    • Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

    • The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/  
    • Yeah dunno why johhny posted that here with no context, just post on FB/insta bro where he put it up?  Laine had an off at T4 during Thurs prac, he's ok, car is less than perfect, they are done for the weekend, he can fill in the rest. Bando also binned it like 100m up the road.
