ok everyone,the last dyno day thread was getting well confusing and after talking to brendan,he was more than happy for me to take the organising on and try and make something of it

heres the story-

after talking to the boys at turbotune yesterday,they are more than happy to accomodate our needs and open their doors for us only on a sunday,which will be set on the 6th december

cost will be $50 per car + $5 to cover food and drink which will be supplied on the day by myself.will most likely bring a BBQ down there and have a cook up for us all

the money needs to be paid to the workshop BEFORE the day,so for those that know me can catch up with me and give me the money,those that cant catch up with,pm me and i will forward details to a spare bank account i have that the funds can go into for the day.and i will take care of the rest

turbotune have a 4WD dyno,so no dropping shafts

your $50 will include a few power runs,you will be given a printed dyno sheet with all the info on there and im sure michael or mark will be more than happy to dish out some free advice on things to help you improve your car

if you have a preference on time(or you need to be elsewhere) please let me know here or via pm

we may also have(fingers crossed) a big kw car coming down to show us all how its done,wont say anymore about it as its not set in stone yet

lets keep the bullshit to a minimum in this thread,we're all friends here,we all love our stags,so lets make a good day of it

thanks everyone

Sorry chaps, can't make that one :) - too many other things already on that day (according to the 'family calendar') :thumbsup:

(It would have been interesting, TT was where I first benchmarked the Stag in '05)

And Chris, have any of your posts been useful?

    • Look for broken wire or bad connector at the motor. Might not be it, but is worth starting there, as it is easy.
    • Hi everyone, I’m having an issue with my R32 GT-R. Sometimes, when the car goes over a bump or experiences some vibration, the 4WD warning light comes on the dashboard. When I check the code from the control unit in the trunk, it shows Code 19 – ETS Motor. However, everything seems to be working fine — if I turn off the engine and restart the car, the light goes away and everything functions normally. Has anyone experienced this before? Where should I start troubleshooting this issue? Thanks in advance!
    • I'm back from the dyno - again! I went looking for someone who knew LS's and had a roller dyno, to see how it shaped up compared to everything else and confirm the powerband really is peaking where Mr Mamo says it should. TLDR: The dyno result I got this time definitely had the shape of how it feels on the road and finally 'makes sense'. Also we had a bit more time to play with timing on the dyno, it turns out the common practice in LS is to lower the timing around peak torque and restore it to max after. So given a car was on the dyno and mostly dialled in already, it was time for tweaking. Luis at APS is definitely knowledgable when it came to this and had overlays ready to go and was happy to share. If you map out your cylinder airmass you start seeing graphs that look a LOT like the engine's torque curve. The good thing also is if you map out your timing curve when you're avoiding knock... this curve very much looks like the inverse of the airmass curve. The result? Well it's another 10.7kw/14hp kw from where I drove it in at. Pretty much everywhere, too. As to how much this car actually makes in Hub Dyno numbers, American Dyno numbers, or Mainline dyno numbers, I say I don't know and it's gone up ~25kw since I started tinkering lol. It IS interesting how the shorter ratio gears I have aren't scaled right on this dyno - 6840RPM is 199KMH, not 175KMH. I have also seen other printouts here with cars with less mods at much higher "kmh" for their RPM due Commodores having 3.45's or longer (!) rear diff ratios maxing out 4th gear which is the 1:1 gear on the T56. Does this matter? No, not really. The real answer is go to the strip and see what it traps, but: I guess I should have gone last Sunday...
    • 310mm rotors will be avilable from Australia, Japan, and probably a few other places. Nothing for the front can be put on the back.
    • The filter only filters down to a specific size. Add to that, the filter is AFTER the pump. So it means everything starts breaking your pump even if its being filtered out.
