post up the numbers!

lol oh dont.. lol

worst show ever.. most of the all the cars had their problems on the dyno.

couldnt believe one worker told an SAU'er

Quote: i never got a run: "we wanted to get the highpowered cars out of the way first" - or so i was told

so after a few hours i just bailedd, pretty shitty /quote.

also most of the turn out on the dyno was all bogandores and failords, majority of all "high profile" cars all had problems and gave out low hp readings on the dyno.

i wont mention what cars was put on the dyno for show but unfortunately was kinda a let down..

i don't know if the owners wanted to "try" and impress people by asking high profile cars to come and join and be biased towards normal streeters that was geniunely interested in handing over their money to help the event running but the figures on the dyno sheets suggested otherwise.

Well you crnt please everyone.

It was meant to be skyline's only, but due to date changes and the dyno cell not being ready, the boys @ EFI basically said it was an open day to whoever came.

As far as I know, Having whatever car there, big name or daily driven whoever paid, went on.

Whitey: Like what Redsun mentioned. I dont think the "we wanted to get the highpowered cars out of the way first" shows a lot about the type of service provided. Its like a discrimination against someone with a "low" powered car. In any case, even if you're really gonna do that I would they'll allow 1 "highpowered" car to cut queue for every 3 cars that were in the queue. But at the end of the day its their facility and whats been mentioned here are just plain feedback and nothing personal.

Agreed, That's right its their facility and they can do what ever they want.

Just doesn't give a big bang for opening and or good impression towards potential clients..

Majority of people I spoke to during the day, including a few local tuners that dropped around were quite impressed with the variety of cars that turned up. I wouldnt say the dyno numbers were bad, I think people turn up to see rediculously high numbers appart from cars like the twin turbo vk that made around 460hp or so, but the response was insane.

I think your never going to impress everyone or you cant always make everyone. But i think anyone that went there with an opened mind and enjoyed watching cars both stock to powerful displaying the time and effort there owners put into them would have enjoyed the day.

There were plenty of cars that had problems, for god sake I threw my car up there with compressor surge and running low boost and pulled some terrible number but it was nice to be part of such a nice group of cars and from the people I met, some really friendly blokes.

Hello members.

First of all, thanks to all who attended we had a great time.

Point taken ay, we like to here the negatives along with the positives.

This was like we said our first attempt at a dyno day, We as a company didnt think our first event was going to have the amount of car's/people as we did which made it hard to monitor, manage and control traffic.

We only have limited staff doing there job's and even myself found it complicated at times throughout the day staying on top of the task at hand.

Although there was a lot of people in EFI shirts, most of them are customers and friends who's job wasn't organizing or arranging the next car on the dyno.

With feedback like what I'm reading its great, I don't mind it at all because it help's us improve for our next and up coming event's.

One thing I will say is, there were a few changes made due to miss communication from myself and event staff which I'm more than happy to take responsibility for and I also know how it feels when you are waiting in line for your turn and someone jump's the Que because they know someone or have something more flashy ect.

(Like being in line at a club and old mate gets in before you coz he knows the dude on the door or has a hot missus) lol

Please by all mean's post your feedback negative or positive because it will go along way to helping us be better next time around.

Cheers

Good to see you're being open minded about the whole thing and yes like what sam said the staffs (boys with EFI T-shirts) were pretty friendly. But in general I personally feel you'll want to be treated the same way doesnt matter if you're getting a tyre change or getting an engine rebuild.

Good effort for all who organize the dyno day and hopefully you'll have a 4wheel dyno when I got the car properly tuned (not anytime soon!). Cheers!

x2 on what Brandon said

Its very rare to see workshop these days have an open mind on things like this, so good on EFI for accepting customers/dyno goers -/+ comments.

    • Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention
    • So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34
    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
    • Place the new daughterboard in the case and mount it using the 3 small black rivets provided, and reconnect the 3 factory ribbon cables to the new board Then, use the 3 piggyback cables from the daughterboard into the factory board on top (there are stand offs in the case to keep them apart. and remember to reconnect the antenna and rear cover fan wires. 1 screw to hold the motherboard in place. Before closing the case, make a hole in the sticker covering a hole in the case and run the cable for the android unit into the plug there. The video forgot this step, so did I, so will you probably. Then redo the 4 screws on back, 2 each top and bottom, 3 each side and put the 2 brackets back on.....all ready to go and not that tricky really.
