Wow another big SAU roll up. Not to hot lathugh may be a little wet. As always it willl be an interesting day.

Thanks for having us again John :yucky:

Looking foward to seeing if my car does any better now.. I think she is healthy again.

Now I can go and wash my car tonight so it looks healthy too lol.

this will be a top day. everyone should get out there. cheap way to get your car on a dyno and see how it's going. :banana:

I will try and make it out too. the only question is do I bring the 34 (stock)? the S13 runs about 230odd rwkw on UAS dyno so maybe I should bring that? or I'm kind of curious to see what my FD RX7 is making now that the new pre-stage ported 13B is run in. hmmm tough choice. I'm guessing the stock 34 GTR makes about 190rwkw and the 7 maybe 200rwkw or so.

well if I don't make it out, have a great day without me guys. :D

if you can't decide i'll take the RX7 for you lol, they are a beautiful machine, completely different to the skylines but in its own right they are excellent. A friend of mine is actually looking at a 1991 series 5 turbo on sunday, what should he be looking for?

I'm washing my car anyway because a few days ago while going throgh the m2 tunnel those bloody stupid exhaust fans splatterd oil on my car, couldnt wash it because i was going to work, then i finish work at midnight, wake up for work next morning, finish work midnight again, so gota wash it now....

and if its 20-25degrees tomorrow the temps will be ok for the dyno results, cooler air = denser air, denser air = more air, more air = more power lol

if he's buying an old RX7 my advice would be pay as little as possible and save for a rebuild! mine is a 2001 RZ and even it was due for a new engine after a wee 30,000kms! rotor motors are not built to last. :banana:

can i still come with a broken three gear you only need fourth gear for a dyno run

If we get you rocking up scobles, you have easy takings of the RB30 trophy. Was your run on the Envy dyno with gas? Impressive figure. :banana:

Cyas tomorrow.

im out :) i found the limits of a standard rb30 bottom end engine let go at 592hp not bad for a stock engine time to visit abbcos ha ha or i mite build one for once ;) just think what we can make with a built engine 600hp+

Cyas tomorrow.

nah the run on envys dyno was with no gas just 20 psi should have left it there but where do you stop

    • The car/ECU will have all the sensor that it needs and expect to have. I think i do not have to explain to you how the Link is way better specialy if you have swapped engine   I just do not want to deal with any "problems" cuz i have only Nistune which i learned is not that great and in my case cant even deal with that speed problem (Link can) And of course it will be way more easier to tune and diagnose and safe. And for the ECU/speed problem...i dont know.
    • Per Mark Roberts of Sonictune: Mark Robert Author At this time, no. No ETA either 2016-17 models. You will be able to purchase and install a 2018.5+ TCU though   TCU purchasing and pricing info! As we near the release of TCU tuning, I am going to answer some questions I get asked often.   What do I need for TCU tuning? At this time, you will need a 2018.5+ TCU to be able to tune. If you have a 2016-to early 2018, you will need to replace your TCU with the newer version. One good way to know if your TCU is good is if you have auto upshift in manual mode in 1st gear around 6500 rpms. If your manual 1st gear goes to 7k rpm and will hit the rev limiter unless you shift, you have the older TCU.   Why do I need to buy another ecu license/phone flash if I already have it on my ECU tune? The TCU is its own computer module. It is completely separate from the ECU. Because of this, you will be required to purchase a TCU license and, if your tuner has it, the phone flash license required to tune it via phone/bluetooth.   Do I need TCU tuning? TCU tuning is NOT required. However, the faster your setup, the more it will assist in track and dragy time consistency.   If I’m ECU tuned by (tuner A) can I get my TCU tuned by (Tuner ? Yes, since it’s a different module and a completely separate flash, you can have two different tuners. However, it is highly recommend that you have both tuned by the same tuner. For me, my TCU tuning will directly complement my ECU tuning style and features and running my ECU and another TCU or vice versa MIGHT cause some issues. At this time and for the foreseeable future, I will only be tuning my current ECU tuned customers TCUs.     I have a SYVECS AWD controller. Do I still need it? Yes! The AWD controllers main job is to control your AWD system. However, with TCU tuning, you will no longer need the auto-shift function as that will be done through the TCU. The AWD controller will still be very beneficial for racers looking to maximize traction on the launch.     Shift schedule changes: holding gears longer at lower pedal input as well as max shift rpm changes. Please note, the new ECU race rom coming out will address 90% of the shitty drivability issues these cars have through custom maps from myself and Racebox—as well as others I am sure.   Increase shift speeds: as seen in the videos I’ve been posting, the TCU shifts much faster once tuned.   Increased shift pressures: as also seen in the videos, much firmer full throttle shifts.

    • The fancy pants red shock tower brace is finally incoming from MX5 Mania, getting it shipped from 'Merica has been a long and problematic process, and GWR, the 'Merican supplier will not ship directly to consumers outside of the US, Mania basically had to order a heap of them, the colour choice was silver, or red, and we all know anything red adds 5 killerwasps of dynotorques..... Whilst it does fit over a 2.5, and I've seen a few photos and videos of it being installed and fitting, google also says it might get real close to the FAB9 intake front runner, people in the US says it does fit with the FAB9 intake, except for one person who said it slightly touched.......so there is that.....LOL..... As it seems that I am the first in AU to have this combination of parts there's no local knowledge about fitment, so I'm just a willing guinea pig in this endeavour, I'll cross my fingers and toes and hope for the best In other news, I ordered stuff from China  on the same day I ordered the 23° silicone bend from Victoria, the stuff from China arrived a day ago, the 23° silicone bend is still travelling around Australia thanks to Australia Post, and "may" be here next week
    • Very good news...I contacted Racebox about it last night. My car is a 2016 so remains to be seen if it is compatible, requires a TCU swap, or is impossible.
