Please dont goto hiPman (or the one which sounds similar).. My mates came out with a downloadable map and no tune when he paid for a full tune and it was done in 20 mins??

Serious ?? He was the last to tune MY R32 GTR Before i sold it and man he made a big difference ,Performance was better , Again doesnt anyone know if he can actually tune my R34 GTR ??? As his dyno is 2WD ??

then your mate got rorted lol!!

shoulda went back and asked for FULL TUNE !!!!

unigroup engineering in girraween - 3 power runs for $60

yavuz is a top bloke..

happily answers any questions you may have as with others, you ask a few questions and they crack the sh*ts simply coz they think they're better then you coz they can tune cars.. wow :P

And i suppose John "Pelican" at unique fed you that dribble...ive heard him say it to customers time and time again about so called "Croydon Watts"...heres some proof

My car

CRD 439kw...the next day at Autosalon Sydney 437kw

CRD 467kw (at night with cold air) the next day at Autosalon Newcastle 455kw (the heat of the day in an auditorium with not much fresh air)

CRD 486kw...the next day at Autosalon final battle Sydney 487kw then the next day took a little bit of fuel out of it to push it over 500kw with 502.4kw.

Both dyno's are of a different make from Croydon (Dynodynamics) and Autosalon (Mainline dynolog), and the dyno in Newcastle is a different Mainline Dynolog to the one used in Sydney.

They are so accurate because they are used by skilled operators with more years of experience than most people on here have been alive.

So please don't post hearsay dribble you get fed from other workshops.

And just for the record I no longer have any affiliation with Croydon Racing.

My thoughts exactly..

guys ..sort of related question and main reason I want to dyno the car.

I took the car to get all the drive, psteering and timing belt replaced recently. Since, I feel like I've got less power ... as if the car doesn't boost. I mean I can hear the turbo spool up and everything but I don't feel that sudden rush of extra power.

My mate reckons I'm full of shit and just got used to the power ... he's probably right. What do yous think? Could they have screwed something up when changing the timing belt??

I know I know ...dyno run will tell me for sure if there's anything weird (ie. if the figures are way too low) but i've been busy and havent had time this week to take it for a dyno run. Hopefully someone like CRD can squeeze me in tommorow as I'm getting more paranoid every day..

Any simple way to test if all the cylinders and turbo are working ok at the correct parameters, other than simply looking at dyno results? cheers

Sydneykid? was there beef between you guys? lol

no beef...Gary and i sometimes don't see eye to eye (im 6'2" and he's a midget :) )

but... if everyone was all love all the time the world would be a little boring.

hmm shit that doesn't sound good. Would you recommend against dynoing the car if it's "one tooth out" .. could the dyno do more damage? Any way of checking if it's one tooth out without actually taking the whole engine apart again??

Take the tyiming cover off, rotate the crank to TDC and look at the camshaft pulleys. Take 10 minutes at best.

Cheers

    • I don't think the shuffle can damage the turbos. It only happens at low shaft speeds and loads. It's just annoying (to some people - others are tickled by the effect) and it quite possibly reduces spool performance a little bit.
    • Oh dear. The panel beating needs to be done before the filler work. Do you have a photo of the dent before you started? Hard enough to not flex and only hit the high spots?  What do you mean it was just temporary? 
    • Can u check this way it works for power supply?
    • These coils draw 10amps that what i read online
    • I appreciate the detailed explanation, think I understand now. I spent the better part of last night reading what I could about shuffle and potential solutions. I had replaced the OEM twin turbo pipe with an alternate Y pipe that is separated further away from the turbo. The current one is from HKS and I had a previous pipe that was separated even further away, both have shuffle. I had heard that a divider can be welded in to the OEM pipe to remove turbulence, and figure that aftermarket pipes that are more separated would achieve the same thing. From what I read, most people with -10 turbos get shuffle due to their size, though it's a bit less common with -5s on a standard RB26. I think Nismoid mentioned somewhere it's because OEM recirculation piping is common in Australia with -5 cars. It seems that the recommendation tends to vary between a few options, which I've ordered in what I think is most feasible for me:  1. Retune the MAP or boost controller to try to eliminate shuffle 2. Install OEM recirculation piping 3. Something called a 'balance pipe' welded onto the exhaust manifolds. I don't know if kits for this are available, seems like pure fabrication work 4. simply go single turbo My current layout is as follows: Garrett 2860 -5s HKS Racing Suction intake MAF delete pipes HKS racing chamber intake piping hard intercooler piping,  ARC intercooler HKS SSQV BOV and pipe Haltech 2500 elite ECU and boost solenoid/controller HPI dump pipes OEM exhaust manifolds HKS VCAM step 1 and supporting head modifications Built 2.6 bottom end All OEM recirculation piping was removed, relevant areas sealed off I'll keep an eye out for any alternative solutions but can get started with this.  Only other question is, does shuffle harm the turbo (or anything else)? It seems like some people say your turbo shafts will explode because of the opposing forces after a while and others say they just live with it and adjust their pedal foot accordingly.
