Congrats to Ant and SST, the trevs must be getting pissed... thats twice in 3 years a Jap cars won the dyno comp :D

And top work to Daze (XRW) for his burnout effort... short as it was...

Ant's R32 GTR made 616rwhp, and took out the 4WD 6cyl blown, and I think outright class. Nathan Webbs R33 GTR made 475rwhp. I think Lee from SilviaWA got 400+ from his car too.

All-in-all a decent result considering the number of Trevs there:D

You mean "Lee from AFARCC got 436 hp" :-)

Eye witnesses said it was pinging it's arse off.... which usually suggests it wasnt tuned for the conditions.... given that it was cooler on the day than I was expecting... thats a surprise...

Anyone remember what it made on the dyno at Sport Compact? I'd expect them to be putting in a fair effort to get it back up to spec by the next Sport Compact....

From what i was told when Mr.X was tuning it (GT51R), he put the old 650hp map in, then when fine tuning it was arking out, and Mr.X goes, plugs are fowled, just change them and u wioll be right, and no furter tuning was done, hence is wasnt running right and not making power.

no need for names here.

i know Mr T hes hawt! ;)

has the engine been on to many dynos?... if it was pinging off its tits... then i wouldnt be able to hear it but i took a video of it doing the dyno and you might be able to hear it....i'll post it later on tonight if i can be phucked getting it off the camera ;)

i didn't hear nathans car pinging its date off, i did hear/see it wheel spin excessivly tho..

the was a fair amount of tyre smoke after the first run..

can anyone, ant hopefully confirm what gear they did the runs in, because his and nathans cars seem to come on very hard and very fast, a lot faster than i expected..

or is it just possible the new formax guy running the dyno, got the ramp rates wrong?..

Yea - I only saw Ant's run but couldn't believe the way it revved. As soon as it was on boost it hit the limiter! But would more load have made for less traction? Seemed with the dude sitting in the boot and the people in the car they still had issues with it..

    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
    • Yeah, I would have said the same. It makes me suggest that there are other things wrong, such that the ECU is totally unhappy with the broken sensor. The only other thought here is that maybe it is shorted, which might cause a different issue to the typical "disconnected" sensor.
