Hi Everyone,

Its time for our annual Dyno Day. if you would like to participate please put your entry through sooner than later.

We got (from memory) 44 cars last year and had to turn down about 10 so there is a limit on how many we can do.

It is a 4WD dyno so all types (FWD, RWD or 4WD) are welcome. For the R34 GTRs I know you will need to remove the rear diffuser.

(9th Feb 2011) There are 15 spots out of the 40ish max taken already, so be quick.

Hey Gents

Yah I know it is near Knox. Seriously even when I had my R33 GT-R I never had any issues @ Knox and I was there every 2nd day but I am not saying you guys won't/don't.

VCM Suite is on Ferntree Gully Rd so you do not need to pass Knox.

You guys don't realise but Pettite probably surfs these forums regularly and if you state you are trying to avoid Knox the more effort he will make it to come down :)

Sorry guys I cannot gurantee what I have no control over but the last 2 times we have been there, not a cop in sight.

Hope you guys still decide to come down if not to Dyno, for a look see.

Regards

B

PS: Sorry didn't know it was on the same day as DECA.

PS2: Thanks to those who have already paid.

Are there any more spots?

I have never been to one of these so what the procedure/format of these event? Do your cars have to be modified or anything or just anyone with preferably skylines involved?

Age limit? (lol) I am an oldie (45)

Spoke to Brandon last week, said there is still spots so quick get in :)

Can be any car, stock or modified hell my GTR is stock as a rock and going on :D

No age limit!

Thanks for the reply Leigh

Yes guys, your car does not need to modified or expected to deliver large amounts of HP or Kws.

Some people use it as a comparison when they are about to do Mods, since we try and do a Dyno day every 12mths, they can then compare what sort of performance difference their mods have made.

Others just like to be able to analyse their power curve.

Others just like to participate and check out the different cars.

Im Surprised but we still have spots left.

Thanks

Bran

Hi Guys,

We still have some spots left.

I will be emailing the timetables on Thursday sorry but I need to sit down and work it all out :)

Some people can only make it in the mornings etc etc

Even if you are not dynoing your car please feel free to pop by grab a bite take some pics and mingle.

Thanks

Bran

    • So stock ECU does not like anything above 10 psi?  That Nistune one is just for "try" if it will be any different, I know it need to be tune for that. I know but YOU may know about these problem but i/we dont. They few little Skylines here let alone people who know anything about tham so that is why iam asking here  
    • So now we have a radiator with no attachments whatsoever. It lifts up with a particularly tight spot between the drivers side air box mount and the lower radiator outlet, but if you've got this far you will sort that too. This is the lower mounts with the rad out so you can see where the rubber bushes go, it is a straight shot upwards Done! Assembly is the reverse of disassembly, with blood less likely to be shed.
    • Right, onto the second last trick. The Air Con condenser is mounted to the front of the radiator and stays in the car when the radiator is removed. There are 2x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the condenser to the radiator, remove those The bottom of the condenser is attached to the radiator with clips. You need to lift the condenser out of those clips and clear (up, then forward). f**ked if  could work out how to do that last bit with the front bumper on. I hope you can, and you share the trick.  Bumper removal probably deserves its own thread one day once I've recovered the will to live, but basically you need to remove the wheels, front inner guard liners (clips and 10mm headed bolts), the self tapper between the guard and the bumper at the rearmost point of the bumper (same as an R32 that bit), any remaining clips at the top/front of the grill, an absolute bastard design with a plate that holds the top of the bumper above the headlight each side (only 1 bolt which is tricky to get to, but the plate catches 2 places on the bumper and must be removed....carefully!) and push clips between the bumper and guard under the headlight. If you've done all that you will be faced with wiring for the fog lights on both sides and in ADM Q50 RS at least, 4 nasty tight plugs on the driver's side for the ADAS stuff. So, the clips at the bottom look like this on drivers side (looking from the front) And on the passenger side (also from the front), you can see this one is already out Clearance on both of these are super tight; the condenser needs to move up but the upper rad support mount prevents that, and the radiator can't move down far because it is (rubber) mounted. Once you achieve the impossible and drop the condenser off those mounts so it does not stop the rad moving, you are good to go
    • OK, next the shroud needs to come off and there are a couple of tricks. Firstly, there is a loom from near the passenger side headlight to the fans, coolant temp sensor etc and there is no plug to undo.  In my case I was OK to leave the shroud on top of the engine so I just undid the passenger side fan plug and about 10 of the clips which gave enough free wire to put it aside. The fan plugs were super tight, the trick I used was a small falt screwdriver to push down on the release tab, then a larger flat screwdriver to lever the plug out of the fan unit....be careful with how much force you apply! If you need to remove the shroud altogether for some reason you will have to deal with all the plugs (tight) and clips (brittle)....good luck. I removed all of the clips and replaced them with cable ties that I will just cut next time. Also, in the Red Sport / 400R at least, the intake heat exchanger reservoir hose is bolted to the shroud in 2 places with 10mm headed bolts; so remove them (the hose stays in the car; no need to undo it at the t fittings down at the radiator lower mount. Once you've dealt with the HX hose and the wiring loom, there are 3x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the shroud to the radiator; remove those.   The shroud then lifts out of the bottom mounts where it sits on the radiator, up and onto the engine out of the way. Simples
    • Ok, disregard my “rate them” comment, sorry for my unrealistic input
