Herman at Envy imports has just bought a new AWD Dyno Dynamics dyno. big investment for them, and it's great for us as so many of our cars are AWD (all the GTS4s, stageas, GTRs). Anyway, he wants to kick it off with a dyno day and asked if we'd be interested in having one with SAU. He will give us a special SAU financial member price for the day. Basically the outline is this:

Dyno Day, Satuday 16th of August, held at the Envy Imports dyno room, rear of 3 Powells Rd Brookvale (northern beaches, near manly). Everyone is welcome, any kind of car.

Entry costs $50 and SAU NSW club members pay only $40 (if you sign up as a SAU NSW Club member on the day you pay the discounted price also)

There will be a sausage sizzle and drinks etc available.

You get 3 runs. 1 warm up and check that everything is ok, then 2 power runs.

You get a printout with your power and AFR on it.

They will also give a free analysis of the graph (too lean? too rich? poor boost control? detonation? etc, great for people who have not really read a dyno graph before).

And, if you book your car in on the day for further tuning work or whatever Herman will give some kind of discount.

Also, an R35 GTR will be there.

The day kicks off at 9am with the first cars on the dyno around 9:30. You will need to turn up, pay and register then you will be called in the order you arrived.

Please note this one important detail. When attending these types of events you are representing our club, and car enthusiasts in general. There is no need to chuck a skid, or accelerate as hard as you can to prove how awesome you are. We already know you're awesome. I mean you don't see michael schumacher after a Grand Prix go into the car park, hop in his ferarri and chuck a massive burnout now do you? Only wankers with something to prove engage in this kind of behaviour at these events, don't put yourself in that category. Should you feel the need to act like a dick you will be laughed out of the forum, banned from the club and most likely reported to the police.

There will be trophies awarded for highest outright power, top under 2L, top under 2.6L, top outright, top NA. (might add top 4wd and top Rwd too since it's a 4wd dyno).

I will be there. :blink: going to run my little silvia and see how she goes.

It should be a great day guys, and the R35 is one hell of a car, so if you haven't seen one it's a good chance to get up close with one. :)

This is great. One dyno day on today up at Tuggerah to get an initial figure, then I can put the new turbo, boost controller, intercooler and fuel pump in, and get another go just 4 weeks later! Provided my plans fall into place - I'm there too. :)

haha watch out nick (sorry ian :D )...I am going for highest power volvo. because if the damn thing isn't tuned by then I will just buy a V70

Pffft, you can keep your Volvo award, I'll go for highest power Stagea. :)

If that looks like it will fail, does anyone wanna help me import a crazy mid-60's Volvo Amazon with some over-the-top turbocharged B23 motor? (This is from one of the Getaway in Stockholm DVDs)

    • Cats are called Bella, and Donna...  Like that poisonous plant And I remember your 2 monsters, I remember making a little bit of wee when you let them out... LOL I have already installed cat doors into the laundry where their kitty litter is, and the sun room, apart from the cat doors there's not going to be any permanent mounted stuff on the interior walls (interior doors are cheap and easy to replace) I will get a outdoor cat cage thingie once I finish the landscaping out back... https://catnip.com.au/ The only off limit areas are the main bedroom and the gym room....but, currently the cats are curled up in bed, in the main bedroom with the Mrs.....LOL, the off limits for the kittens to the main bedroom lasted about 5 minutes with Jackie I currently only have 1 free standing huge cat tree multiple level scratching post thingie in the lounge room, but, I will be getting another one soon now that I'm happy with the furniture layout in the back room and have a perfect spot for it  
    • All of this is making it seem clear that running the Coppermix twin was definitely the way to go, especially in hindsight with how insane tariffs have gotten and the strength of the USD vs yen at the time.
    • That sounds like no chance of even importing one for road registering then Now I see why Duncan wants to check LHD rules for Targa...   I wonder how "bolt in" the AWD would be if you got one imported from the US and swapped it to an AUD one
    • Not to mention they drive like a bucket of bolts! yuck!
