I'm with you on this one... ...Went to a Dyno Day at RE Customs and got almost 150kws... ...So I tell people that... ...It's got what it's got...

However... ...If you're a tool in a Comedydor and you ask me at the lights I might just say it's a little shy of 250kws... ...And then let you tear up those sweet looking steel stockies as you try to prove you've got more ba-- *ahem* power... :P

That's pretty much what I did. Up until it was dyno'd, if someone asked me what power it has, I would say "I dunno, never been dyno'd, but if I had to guess... 180?" I copped a bit of shit for that number but it was the best guess I had...

The car was stock (intercooler ONLY), plus I was young and naive!

Then it got dyno'd at 178.2 :D runs a higher then factory PSI for some unknown reason... Man that shut some people up :D

on a slghtly related topic (not like that matters in this thread anyhow) what really gets me is the discussion with holden owners who think that my 265rwkw is slow compared to a stock SS because holden like to stick pretty numbers on the back... :banana:

that's because the falcodore drivers beleive the numbers on the back is what car can "really" do.

I love explainig to these fools that the numbers on the back is what the engine pumps out not what it does at the wheels and they all go "nah man, that's crap it what it does at the wheels" and then see them get beaten by 'line, stagea, 180SX, WRX etc. and have the look of disbeleif on their faces

Don't the hsv's have a small dyno print out stuck under the bonnet off how many killerwasps the car puts out..?

I think the Corvette has a plarque welded in to say what the kW reading is.

LOL!

yeah but that could be from an engine dyno readout...which while it's good because you know how much kw/hp the motor can pump out, still doesn't relate to rwkw/rwhp

beacuse if it was a read out at the wheels....wouldn't make the badging seem...so fake and full of lies??

Thanks.

OK,

I'm sure youv'e all got a mate or no of somebody like this but what is it with dudes claiming massive power outputs on relatively stock cars. I'm not going to even look into the pshycology of it all but man it pissses me off.

So yesterday I was at a mates shop rewiring a hole heap of stuff and general maintenance and a unnamed SAU member came by in his 33. He was all like what are you putting down at the treds. I said Last dyno was 231RWKW. He was like yeah iv'e got 340rwkw with a stock turbo on 15psi with just a computer, fuel pump and exhaust. I mean I wanted to just get right into it but I thought f*ck it. What the point…. People like that aren't worth it. I mean I have stock injectors and max them out at full tilt. Now how the hell to I get another 100kw down on those injectors. I have the HKS2535, bosch pump, surge tank, fuel reg, computer, FMIC, exhaust, Z32, Boost control, pod blah blah blah and I cannot squeeze that sorta power out…..

Am I missing something or are these people just living a pipe dream.

I swear i can't stand it, It all ways happen's to me, cant stand it from people with V8's say they have like 200+kws from a standed 5ltr with gears, stage 2 shift kit and monster tacho. One of my mates had a VP 5ltr it only made 118kw.

My mate has a 5.7ltr fully work engine forgies soild cam big bux spent on it, The work shop told him it was makeing 280kw. He told a diffent tuner and he laught and said no way put it on the dyno and it only made 250kw. I ve heard most V8 joint's dyno are way out so it looks better for them.

So i guess the V8 fans are liveing in Fantasy.

Ps has any one ever heard a v8 fan say there engine rated at 500hp Thinking that makes the car 500hp at the weels. :P .

the vx seies made around thew 220 rwkw mark in standard trim... there's a thread round here somewhere where all the recent falcodors were dyno'ed cant remember the exact figure.

so 300rwkw is EASY.

but remember they are 1.8 tonnes too...

11's are EASY with an ls1

      7 Speed Auto transmission fluid change (Skyline, Q50, Q60, Fuga, Q70, A62 Titan and probably heaps of others including Navara...)

      By Duncan · Posted

      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.....

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      By Duncan · Posted

      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)
