Good turn out for the imports and old school muscle and a few ford xr6/8's.

Pitty no newish holdens rocked up.

Interesting to see Shauns dyno was reads pretty much smack on par with the Graham Wests mainline. :D

Most impressive/interesting I found was the dude with his Silver R33 running on E85. Top effort impressed with the street tune..

Smelt like a fish and chip shop that hadn't changed its cooking oil for a month or two as it drove out. :P

Thanks for thumbs up cubes, definately smelt better than the Av Gas from some of the old school beasts, was good to see a nice variety of cars and see how they compare.

Top stuff Adrian you cracked 302rwkw i see.

Win for the imports with 269.4 average.

265.5 average for the Domestics so very close indeed.

The day was long, the cars were awesome and the numbers were high. While we didnt get the turn out of Holdens we expected, with no Holdens coming to the dyno at all, the domestics we always going to struggle. The Imports layed down some big numbers early with Gavins rather impressive 487 rwkw from his A80 Supra.

While the results were helped out by a late arrival of Fords from the KPM day there was to be no big come back and the imports took out the day.

It was a great day, lots of awesome cars, both Turbo and N/A Muscle. I'd personally like to thank all those that took the time to bring the car for a run and all those that helped run the day.

We will run the event again next year, and as such will take any advice to try improve the running of the event.

Once again, thanks to entrants and assistants!

the only thing i could add to the running of the day is...

once you know people have arrived and come to see you that determines the order that they run

and keep posting up a list of people whos next name and make of car to help keeping the cars lining up other than that was good day

maybe starts the BBQ @ 11am and run it till there's no more to eat :P

Yeah it was a very good day and good to catch up with a few regulars along with a couple I haven't met before.

Andrew, your 32 GTR is a beast mate, well done.............who invited that Supra anyway :P

and not to forget Adrian's fish n chip shop 33, very impressed............ha, now I can see why Joel gets his nickers caught up his bum everytime he mentions E85, lol

Great to catch up with you all - I had fun although a little boost controller issue robbed me of 4 psi of boost......not to worry I wouldn't have made another 100kws anyways!!! Might have to convert it to run on the good ole fish and chip fuel and spray instant HP all over the intercooler next time :P

pfffff who needs a cold intercooler.

use the bottle for what it was intended and ram a 200 hp shot of nos into the plenum

like that clevo did. 208 kws without nos 369 kws with nos

that would have got the crowd going, 2 bar and nos to make 500 rwkws.

    • Update 3: Hi all It's been a while. Quite a lot of things happened in the meantime, among other things the car is (almost) back together and ready to be started again. Things that I fixed or changed: Full turbo removal, fitting back the OEM turbo oil hardlines. Had to do quite a bit of research and parts shopping to get every last piece that I need and make it work with the GT2860 turbos, but it does work and is not hard to do. Proves that the previous owner(s) just did not want to. While I was there I set the preload for the wastegates to 0,9bar to hopefully make it easier for the tuner to hit the 370hp I need for the legal inspections that will follow later on. Boost can always go up if necessary. Fitted a AN10 line from the catch can to the intake hose to make the catchcan and hopefully the cam covers a slight vacuum to have less restrictive oil returns from the head and not have mud build up as harshly in the lines and catch can. Removed the entire front interior just shy of the dashboard itself to clean up some of the absolutely horrendous wiring, (hopefully) fix the bumpy tacho and put in LED bulbs while I was there. Also put in bulbs where there was none before, like the airbag one. I also used that chance to remove the LED rpm gauge on the steering column, which was also wired in absolute horror show fashion. Moved the 4in1 Prosport gauge from sitting in front of the OEM oil pressure gauge to the center console vents, I used a 3D printed vent piece to hold that gauge there. The HKB steering wheel boss was likely on incorrectly as I sometimes noticed the indicator reset being uneven for left vs. right. In the meantime also installed an airbag delete resistor, as one should. Installed Cube Speed premium short shifter. Feels pretty nice, hope it'll work great too when I actually get to drive. Also put on a fancy Dragon Ball shift knob, cause why not. My buddy was kind enough to weld the rust hole in the back, it was basically rusted through in the lowermost corner of the passenger side trunk area where the wheel arch, trunk panel and rear quarter all meet. Obviously there is still a lot of crustiness in various areas but as long as it's not rusted out I'll just treat and isolate the corrosion and pretend it's not there. Also had to put down a new ground wire for the rear subframe as the original one was BARELY there. Probably a bit controversial depending on who you ask about this... but I ended up just covering the crack in the side of the engine block, the one above the oil feed, with JB Weld. I used a generous amount and roughed up the whole area with a Dremel before, so I hope this will hold the coolant where it should be for the foreseeable future. Did a cam cover gasket job as the half moons were a bit leaky, and there too one could see the people who worked on this car before me were absolute tools. The same half moons were probably used like 3 times without even cleaning the old RTV off. Dremeled out the inside of the flange where the turbine housing mates onto the exhaust manifolds so the diameter matches, as the OEM exhaust manifolds are even narrower than the turbine housings as we all know. Even if this doesn't do much, I had them out anyways, so can't harm. Ideally one would port-match both the turbo and the manifold to the gasket size but I really didn't feel up to disassembling the turbine housings. Wrapped turbo outlet dumps in heat wrap band. Will do the frontpipe again as well as now the oil leak which promted me to tear apart half the engine in the first place is hopefully fixed. Fitted an ATI super damper to get rid of the worn old harmonic balancer. Surely one of the easiest and most worth to do mods. But torquing that ARP bolt to spec was a bitch without being able to lock the flywheel. Did some minor adjustments in the ECU tables to change some things I didn't like, like the launch control that was ALWAYS active. Treated rusty spots and surface corrosion on places I could get to and on many spots under the car, not pretty or ideal but good enough for now. Removed the N1 rear spats and the carbon surrounding for the tailpipe to put them back on with new adhesive as the old one was lifting in many spots, not pretty. Took out the passenger rear lamp housing... what do you know. Amateur work screwed me again here as they were glued in hard and removing it took a lot of force, so I broke one of the housing bolts off. And when removing the adhesive from the chassis the paint came right off too. Thankfully all the damaged area won't be visible later, but whoever did the very limited bodywork on this car needs to have their limbs chopped off piece by piece.   Quite a list if I do say so myself, but a lot of time was spent just discovering new shit that is wrong with the car and finding a solution or parts to fix it. My last problem that I now have the headache of dealing with is that the exhaust studs on the turbo outlets are M10x1.25 threaded, but the previous owner already put on regular M10 nuts so the threads are... weird. I only found this out the hard way. So now I will just try if I can in any way fit the front pipe regardless, if not I'll have to redo the studs with the turbos installed. Lesson learned for the future: Redo ALL studs you put your hands on, especially if they are old and the previous owners were inept maniacs. Thanks for reading if you did, will update when the engine runs again. Hope nothing breaks or leaks and I can do a test drive.
    • No those pads are DBA too  but they have colors too. I look at the and imo the green "street" are the best.
    • I’m not sure what happened I told them about sonic tunes free OTS tune and the next the I know .. I was booted..   To funny 
    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
