oh and no ute :'( think u mite hav been out next to me when that was on tho hey

Oh yes the utes caught on vid! It was lonely standing there by myself hahaha everyone evacuated the area as the ute came on :D

I PM'd Cubes on how to go about handing out the video - I suggested handing out to those who ran on the dyno and possibly known members etc...

i dont blame them............sounded pretty awful from outside hahaha compared to the sweet note of an RB

if you do bother re-editing use a different colour for the font showing power because grey was little hard to see

I noticed that after compressing it down to a youtube upload-able size... font was clear and fine when the file size was at 684mb haha

Thanks very much to Joel & his missus for organizing & orchestrating the day. As well as the guys at Boostworx for hosting & running the event.

I think enough has been said about Mr Soarer already, but he is a TOOL.

Thanks for making the vid too typevu, was got to see a couple of cars I missed due to being late arriving. Was still fitting the EBC that morning & then found out my indicators weren't working when I went to come down. Got there in the end though :down:

haha yeah its in order of when I filmed it but missed out on the black R33 that was on just before yours - came a few minutes late rocked up just as it was finishing off :down:

the original file is 3GB and goes for many numerous hours... I cut it down to about 9.5MB and just under 5 minutes in that vid :P

just checked out the video, looks really good... although my car didnt' make it on the video due to being the first car of the day on the dyno... otherwise well edited and good footages~!

Yeh thanks Mr and Mrs Cubes for organising the day, was great for the obvious exceptions!!

Car only pulled 207 because my air filter was dirtier than the dirtiest whore in town!! Cleaned her out and now she sucking harder than ever(air filter that is)

was a great day anyhow and finally meeting a few peoples!!

Top work on the clip Vu!!

can you take my black R34 dyno run out of any DVD you make? The 4,500rpm 145rwkw run is just embarrassing - damn pinging in the hot weather with cooling issues ... she makes 230rwkw really :)

yeah yeah sure sure Andrew.......Shaun's dyno doesn't go up to 16,000rpm so we'll never know for sure if you do get 230 :)

hehe I will have to take you for a spin one day Pete :P .... a few of the guys I took for a spin can vouch she makes a bit more than 145 :) - and yes, I know you are just stirring :cheers:

spewin i missed it. had work

but went there 2day to get mine done n made 167 on 10psi.

no boost controller just front mount n screamer n exhaust.

kinda happy but afm is dirty and air filter is facukerd

hehe I will have to take you for a spin one day Pete :yucky: .... a few of the guys I took for a spin can vouch she makes a bit more than 145 :domokun: - and yes, I know you are just stirring :rofl:

I'll put my hand up for a ride in that case too Andrew ;). Didn't think it was running right at all from what had been said.

I was very happy with my result, just wish I had a front mount, car suffers badly in with power in the heat. Yet to dyno the thing on a cool day.

no worries Jared remind me to take you for a belt next time we catch up. The thing is too, that as the car is so smooth it is hard to gauge just how fast it is. I wish we had a drag strip so I could get some times down - it is not until you boot it from the lights with a hot car next to you, that you realise just how fast it is - not that I would do that on a public road of course :domokun:

    • Also, I logged some data from the ECU for each session (mostly oil pressures and various temps, but also speed, revs etc, can't believe I forgot accelerator position). The Ecutek data loads nicely to datazap, I got good data from sessions 2, 3 and 4: https://datazap.me/u/duncanhandleyhgeconsultingcomau/250813-wakefield-session-2?log=0&data=7 https://datazap.me/u/duncanhandleyhgeconsultingcomau/250813-wakefield-session-3?log=0&data=6 https://datazap.me/u/duncanhandleyhgeconsultingcomau/250813-wakefield-session-4?log=0&data=6 Each session is cut into 3 files but loaded together, you can change between them in the top left. As the test sessions are mostly about the car, not me, I basically start by checking the oil pressure (good, or at least consistent all day). These have an electrically controlled oil pump which targets 25psi(!) at low load and 50 at high. I'm running a much thicker oil than recommended by nissan (they said 0w20, I'm running 10w40) so its a little higher. The main thing is that it doesn't drop too far, eg in the long left hand fish hook, or under brakes so I know I'm not getting oil surge. Good start. Then Oil and Coolant temp, plus intercooler and intake temps, like this: Keeping in mind ambient was about 5o at session 2, I'd say the oil temp is good. The coolant temp as OK but a big worry for hot days (it was getting to 110 back in Feb when it was 35o) so I need to keep addressing that. The water to air intercooler is working totally backwards where we get 5o air in the intake, squish/warm it in the turbos (unknown temp) then run it through the intercoolers which are say 65o max in this case, then the result is 20o air into the engine......the day was too atypical to draw a conclusion on that I think, in the united states of freedom they do a lot of upsizing the intercooler and heat exchanger cores to get those temps down but they were OK this time. The other interesting (but not concerning) part for me was the turbo speed vs boost graph: I circled an example from the main straight. With the tune boost peaks at around 18psi but it deliberately drops to about 14psi at redline because the turbos are tiny - they choke at high revs and just create more heat than power if you run them hard all the way. But you can also see the turbo speed at the same time; it raises from about 180,000rpm to 210,000rpm which the boost falls....imagine the turbine speed if they held 18psi to redline. The wastegates are electrically controlled so there is a heap of logic about boost target, actual boost, delta etc etc but it all seems to work well
    • hahah when youtube subscribers are faster than my updates here. Yes some vid from the day is up, here:  Note that as with all track day videos it is boring watching after the bloopers at the start.  The off was a genuine surprise to me, I've literally done a thousand laps around the place and I've never had instability there; basically it rolled into oversteer, slipped, gripped and spat me out. On the way off I mowed down one of the instructor's cones and it sat there all day looking at me with accusing cone eyes as I drove past. 1:13:20 was my fastest lap, and it was in the second session, 3rd lap.  It (or me!) got slower throughout the day as it got hotter.      
    • It sounds like you want what the Toyota Landcruisers have for their roof racks. Wanna know what you end up with? Rust holes in the roof, and water everywhere...
    • Discovered today that if I select reverse first and take my foot off the brake, then select drive, the drive indicator light works and so does the tiptronic gear indicator. 
    • Ok so after much research and talking with knowledgeable people I've got my turbo conversion done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.  Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd. But nothing drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic.  I'm sure there is maybe 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Does anyone here have any ideas?   Cheers guys
