I organised a dyno tuning lesson at Unigroup Engineering a while back and there's a few people that are keen to go. I had a chat with unigroup whilst I was getting my car fixed there and it turns out we can get one happening in a few weeks time...... towards the end of November/start of December.

There's a few people already booked (some from SAU too) but we just need a few more to get it going and it'll be the last session in the near future, definitely the last one for 2010 and probably the last one for the discounted intro price. Anybody keen to learn how to improve their performance and also do their own tuning?

All the details are here:

PS - this isn't for the previous people that wanted to goto the advanced course, they're still waiting on numbers on that one.

Am intersted. Is this a basic or advanced course? Would it suit someone who already has experience self tuning and looking to improve?

Anyone who has done these in the past can shed some light?

Would be interesting learning off a tuner IRL to improve. (although yet am i to blow something up ^^)

The "advanced" course is for those that have previously attended whereas this one here is for everybody that has never been before. There is a number of people that have registered that have done some type of tuning before so you'll probably fit right in with them.

There's feedback on this link (down the right hand side): http://www.ao-ps.com/dynotuningsessions.html

Here is the forum link to the previous session with feedback from the participants: http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/Ha...ce-t308456.html

For those that attended yesterday a big thank you to Wing and Unigroup.

The tuning workshop was fantastic value.

For me the best concept I grasped was in understanding the combustion pressure changes either side of top dead centre.

A very long and enjoyable day.

ps. straight out of the box the rough tune on DVS32R's car wasn't shabby. :thumbsup:

Had an Awesome time at unigroup on sunday,

Yavuz IS the smartest tuner i have ever met.

Best value for money, i learnt alot, we covered in detail every question the group had about tuning.

Thanks for organising it Wing

cheers

Thanks for a great day guys! I always learn something new and it looks like you guys got what you wanted out of it with all your questions answered :)

A participant said that he was more interested in tuning theory, how an internal combustion engine works on a detailed engineering level, and how not to get fed BS/ripped off by dubious workshops. Even without the dyno tuning training it was well worth the knowledge gained from the day. I agree.

We had guys traveling from as far as the central coast and Canberra to attend but I think WA is a wee bit far lol

Something that may interest people is that Yavuz (head of Unigroup Engineering) is a university degree-certified mechanical engineer, specialising in chassis dyno tuning. He was also recently invited by the University of Technology Sydney (UTS) to present and discuss in nitty gritty engineering detail regarding engine design/tuning, so hats off to him :worship:

Honestly, I think that the "comparison" table on the website is an absolute crock of shit. Seriously if you are going to do that sort of thing you need to compare your service to that of another company, you can't just say "other" because it is a cop out and allows you to write the whatever you want. For example "Q&A time: UniGroup Engineering-Maximum, Other-Minimum" what the hell is that? It is a little dishonest and reflects poorly on your company, if you really stand behind your service you should name another company and compare the two, don't simply compare UniGroup with an "other" company that may or may not exist who just conveniently happens to be the worst company ever. I think you should consider changing or removing this laughable piece of marketing.

In the meantime please continue to enjoy free advertising under the "events" sections of the NSW sub forum.

went along to this today, time very well spent. Yavuz certainly knows his shit and can explain in words small enough for me.

+1. Highly recommended. Will be back for the Advanced course.

    • Physically, you'd expect it to turn the motor 11/8ths faster than a standard one, but I'm not sure of specifics
    • Ironically the GTT was quite reliable in the 7 years of ownership. From memory I've only had to replace a radiator and coilpacks out of inconvenience 
    • Yes I can see how that would put you off HFM, especially with the price of good quality brake fluid. From what I understand it as you say the BM50 is the standard BMC for a R32 GTR, I must admit I would like to go far a Genuine Nissan BM57, but lack of cash prevents that at present. With the price being so close between the genuine BM50 and BM57 a BM57 New it seems a better choice as you gain that 1/16 bore size with the BM57, I would be interested in how much difference you feel with the BM57 fitted. I am going to take SteveL's advice in the short term and see how much actually comes out of that proportioning valve vent and save up for the Genuine Nissan part. Thanks for clarifying the HFM failure
    • Thanks mate. I just got the post inspection 1/2 done from state roads when the starter motor packed up, either that or the car alarm system is having trouble.  OEM part number 23300-AA112.
    • Hi, I though I was coming to an end in finding a replacement starter motor for a rb25de neo. I came across a starter motor from Taarks and a message below stating: Direct fit. 11 Tooth count. All below part numbers have been superseded to 11 teeth. Can some body shed some light on going from 8 teeth to 11 teeth apart from 36-month / 25,000 km warranty for passenger vehicles to 12 Month Warranty. Compatible with the following Nissan part numbers: 23300-20P00 23300-20P01 23300-20P05 23300-20P10 23300-20P11 23300-AA111 23300-AA112 23300-AA300 23300-08U10 23300-08U11 23300-08U15
