No biggie for me mate, it was on the exact same dyno not even 3 weeks prior so it really didn't bother me. Much rathered giving my spot to Matty to see if he could fix his issues on a second run :D

thanks for that too luke

much kudos to martin and kier and the boys at willall. especially for the advice regarding my rather shit state of ignition timing, and the lend of a timing light (and roo's spare CAS too). at least i can confidently say that i know it wont blow up next weekend :D

Looks like i missed an awesome day! Totally spewing i had to go to the show instead.

That you did considering the show is crap :D

thanks for that too luke

Not a problem bud. Like I said to you on the day; atleast you know what's wrong with it and what needs to be fixed. Just get on top of it before something else rears its ugly head. GTR's can get $$$

yeah, thats it. at least it'll be alright for this weekend, then i can take a breath and sort it all out. turbos, oil lines, cams (maybe LOL)

What would be cool is if we could get a big ass graph with everyones power curves overlaid

would really put things into perspective, not just be about peak power but to also show how responsive some cars are

not sure if it can be done but it'd be awesome if we could do that next dyno day :D

also some r32 gtrs were ran awd and some were ran rwd - bit of a discrepancy there for the sakes of comparison

those are the only two things that I think would improve the next dyno day - beer would probably improve it too

-D

Willall don't like Running 32 GTR's in AWD as it stuff around with your attessa

as for graph would possibly look like a mess a 5 yr old has drawn

depends how u overlaid it

obviously you wouldnt have a 100kw car on a 200kw chart nor a 200kw car on a 300kw chart

colour coded lines are done all the time. sure it could be done, even if one had to plot graph points into another piece of software

the first bunch of gtrs were ran in 4wd... didnt seem to have any visible problems? only ones that werent ran in awd was my own and panzers.. i for one was very keen on seeing how much power loss i'd get in 4wd mode as opposed to rwd only

-D

and RH9

you only see a difference of 5% with AWD

yeah the overlay could be done, not 100% sure what it achieves as there is 25 cars run with almost 20 different tuners

doesnt matter what the tuners are - the result on the same dyno is the benchmark - and thats why it would be interesting to see.

its all very well and good for me to go to my tuner and get a printout, but every dyno is different - if u neutralize that variable by having them all ran on the same dyno (pref all in rwd tho i know it cant be done) then you'd get a good idea of actual real world power and torque curves

not criticising the event in any way at all, just that would be the icing on the cake imho

-D

My car was about 16kw different from 4wd to rwd on GW's dyno.

how much were u doing in both awd and rwd? interesting a percentage value so i can compare it with other peoples results - can help when regarding how efficient the transfer case is on any given power level - as well as the comparison between the 33 and 34 attessa systems to the 32's admittedly slower reacting attessa

-D

Just a quick heads up - none of the R32 Based cars were run in AWD mode. The reason for this is that their ATTESSA control doesnt operate consistently on the dyno, any dyno, hence its not good for the life of the transfer case - and 32 transfer cases are - very - fragile. What you may have seen is some of the earlier run 32s set up on the rear bed, as we had the dyno set is RWD/AWD mode and the straps setup to run the cars this way (we let MattyTs GTR run the front wheels for a bit as we believed it had a fault and we could identify it that way for him). There should be no difference between running front bed/rear bed in terms of power. Notably one of the GTRs went 309rwkw on the rear bed in the morning, and at the end of the day when it (the engine) was a lot cooler it ran 316rwkw which is about right. We test the variance between the beds regularly :P

cool thx for clearing that up :D looks like the 32s all had pretty interesting results

I was sure that redbacks nur would be pulling more than he did which is why I thought i'd ask

    • Even more fun, leave all the ADAS stuff plugged in, but in different locations, hopefully avoid any codes!   And honestly, all these new cars with their weird electronics. Pull all the electronics out Duncan, and just shove an aftermarket ECU and if needed a trans controller in, along with a PDM. Make it run basic but race car styled!
    • To follow up a question from earlier too since I had the front bar off again (fking!) This is what is between the bumper and the drivers side wheel And this is the navigator side, only one thing but its a biggy! So basically....no putting coolers in the wheel arches without a lot of moving other stuff. Assuming I move to properly race prepping this car I'll take that job on and see how the computers respond to removing a whole bunch of ADAS modules
    • So I prepped the car for another track day on Wednesday (will be interesting to see coolant temps post flushing out and the larger reservoir, with a forecast of 3-14 being 20o cooler than last time I took it out). Couple of things to mention; since I am just driving the car and not taking a support vehicle, I took the rear seats out and just loaded the back up Team Trackday style. Look at all that space! To cover off removing the rear seat....it is weird (note the hybrid is probably different because it wouldn't have folding rear seats) Basically, you remove the lower seat base, very similar to a r series but it is a clip that pulls forward to release the base rather than it being bolted down. Easy Then, you need to remove the side section of the rear seat on each side. There is a 14mm head nut at the bottom of the side piece, the it slides upwards off a hook at the top to release; you also need to unhook the seatbelt from the loop at the top. Then the centre piece is weird. You need to release/fold the seats forward with the tab in the boot on each side From there, there are 2,x12mm headed bolts holding the rear of each seat to the folding bracket, under the trim between the rear seat and the boot (4x christmas tree clips there, they suck). The seat is out but you can see where the bolts attach to the bracket
    • As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year. 
    • I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
