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

    • You Gregged a whole racetrack!?
    • 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...
