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:

    • I thought I'd do a write up on an auto transmission fluid change for a the nissan 7 speed Automatic. At some stage the genius engineers decided that the fluid in the trans was "for the life of the transmission", (which seems kind of self supporting to me) and removed the dip stick and fill tube (funnily enough there is still a casting for it). Anyway, for this job you do need 2 specialist tools in addition to regular hand tools, jack and good chassis stands. You need a way to pump fluid up to the transmission; I got one of these but there are plenty of other options: https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/364584087070 Don't trust the generic listing though, it does not come with the required adapter for the Nissan 7 Speed. You need one of these, can't do the job without it: https://navarapart.com.au/product/genuine-nissan-patrol-y62-d23-np300-navara-re7-dipstick-fill-connector1 You need a heap of compatible transmission oil. Could be Nissan, could be anything else rated for Nissan Matic S. You need at least 10 litres, I had 15 to give it a better flush... Also, you need some biiig oil catch trays, at least one of these, or bigger if possible (volume was fine, size was very marginal): https://autobarn.com.au/ab/Autobarn-Category/Tools-%26-Garage/Specialty-Tools/Oil-Service/Garage-Tough-Oil-Drain-Pan-Black-16L---GT1068/p/TO03191 Finally, a measuring jug is very useful if your pump does not have volumes marked on it, I got a 6l one: https://www.repco.com.au/oils-fluids/fluid-accessories/measuring-jugs/penrite-measuring-jug-6l-pmj006/p/A5322648 Oh, and gloves.....this stuff is horrible (not as bad as diff oil, but getting there) ....First, jack up your car.....
    • So I mentioned the apprentice, @LachyK helped take the bonnet off. We just undid the nuts on the hinges and unclipped the gas struts, then pulled the bonnet back a little as the front was catching on the front bar.  I had a good look at everything today and have removed the rams, repaired/reset the hinges and bolted it back together like it never happened. I'll do a separate write up on the repair, and I also removed the poppers from the Fuga today too to save grief down the road.....as said above it is at least $5k to repair retail. I'm also happier about my ability to prepare a race car, and less happy about Nis-nault's engineering (I can hear @GTSBoy sAfrican Americaning) because the top hose of the radiator didn't slip off.......it snapped clean off. By practice I put the hose clamp hard up against the flare on a neck to make it least likely to ever move (thanks @Neil!). I guess that puts a little more pressure on the end of the pipe as it is further away from the rad, but still, that is pretty shit. I've put it back on for now as there was a fair bit of neck still there, but obviously there is no lip on the neck any more so I don't think I'll track it again until I have a new rad. Speaking of which....more research required. It looks like Koyo makes a standard size radiator in ally which I'll grab in the meantime, but I really want something thicker so might have to go custom in the medium term (ouch) Coolant still needs a refill and I have the pressure tester on it over night, but other than a wash down of the engine bay it seems alright. And @MBS206 noted something noisy on the front of the engine and I think I agree....time for a new accessory belt and tensioners I think.
    • our good friends at nismo make a diff for it, I have one (and a spare housing to put the centre in) on the way. https://www.nismo.co.jp/products/web_catalogue/lsd/mechanical_lsd_v37.html AMS also make a helical one, but I prefer mechanical for track use in 2wd (I do run a quaife in the front, but not rear of the R32)
    • What are we supposed to be seeing in the photo of the steering angle sensor? The outer housing doesn't turn, right? All the action is on the inside. The real test here is whether or not your car has had the steering put back together by a butcher. When the steering is centred (and we're not caring about the wheel too much here, we're talking about the front wheels, parallel, facing front) then you should have an absolutely even number of turns from centre to left lock and centre to right lock. If there is any difference at all then perhaps the thing has been put back together wrongly, either the steering wheel put on one spline (or more!) off, and the alignment bodged to straighteb the wheel, or the opposite where something silly was done underneath and the wheel put back on crooked to compensate. Nut there isn't actually much evidence that you have such a problem anyway. It is something you can easily measure and test for to find out though. My money is still on the HICAS CU not driving the PS solenoid with the proper PWM signal required to lighten the load at lower speed. If it were me, I would be putting either a multimeter or oscilloscope onto the solenoid terminals and taking it for a drive, looking for the voltage to change. The PWM signal is 0v, 12V, 0V, 12v with ...obviously...modulated pulse width. You should see that as an average voltage somewhere between 0V and 12V, and it should vary with speed. An handheld oscilloscope would be the better tool for this, because they are definitely good enough but there's no telling if any cheap shit multimeter that people have lying around are good enough. You can also directly interfere with the solenoid. If you wire up a little voltage divider with variable resistor on it, and hook the PS solenoid direct to 12V through that, you can manually adjust the voltage to the solenoid and you should be able to make it go ligheter and heavier. If you cannot, then the problem is either the solenoid itself dead, or your description of the steering being "tight" (which I have just been assuming you mean "heavy") could be that you have a mechanical problem in the steering and there is heaps of resistance to movement.
    • Little update  I have shimmed the solenoid on the rack today following Keep it Reets video on YouTube. However my steering is still tight. I have this showing on Nisscan, my steering angle sensor was the closest to 0 degrees (I could get it to 0 degrees by small little tweaks, but the angle was way off centre? I can't figure this out for the life of me. I get no faults through Nisscan.
