Who? Wetheringtons? The first Wetheringtons was a mobile service that went around to all the goldfields in Victoria so the miners could have their horses dynoed before they bought/sold a horse. The guy who had the mobile service, Arthur Wetherington later set up a workshop in Bendigo which was a great success. The business model was then franchised out to different people and I believe for a short while there was a Wetheringtons franchise in Perth.

Were they related to the pigeon racing wetheringtons from Woy Woy ?

He aw He aw..... He awlways asked this question.

If only the rep buttons were still there, that's a plus one :thumbsup:

Back on topic, I believe that donkeys are the diesel of the animal kingdom, Not huge power, but heaps of torque

That was borrowed from the LULZ thread I believe. The Kings Speech.

Anyway, I will leave you with the history of the boost.

As far as horses making 1.5 HP it is very possible. I mean we all know horses have power-bands, like any engine. You know how when you ride a horse and when you squeeze your boots into it and it goes from a trot to a canter to a sprint and you feel the increase in torque, they called that the "boots" but somewhere along the line it was misread as "boost", so the term boost that we all know so well actually comes from the good old days when we all used horses to get around.

While on the subject of donkeys and horses.

What other animal would you say a donkey would be closely related to?

If you said horse you would be correct. They are in the same family tree as say a cat and a lion. A dog and a bear.

A donkey's DNA and a horse's DNA are so similar that they can actually mate and produce offspring. Only animals with similar DNA can do this. Therefore a cat and a horse could not produce offspring.

Now to my point.

The closest related primate to humans has DNA that is even closely related than that of the horse and the donkey.

Therefore the primate and a human could actually mate and produce offspring.

Food for thought.

I think the point has been missed. When a horse does a dyno pull it's a measurement of how far the horse can actually pull the dyno, converted into horsepower. This may explain the difference between dyno readings, as some dynos are heavier than others. I understand the distance can be improved by the fitment of a Polarhorseariser.

Explains a lot of the dumb shits on this planet lol.

EDIT: I swear the gods are looking down on me some times.

I just got a personal message that explains my DNA fact above.

This was a message I just received from a guy called NSNPWR.

Hey mate, remove head from ass anytime youre ready...let me just say a few things...I, like old mate in that thread ran 12s in my VL with around [email protected] to be precise with 205rwkw (on a DD dyno) out of a single cam RB30...Hiflow T3, T04B front, Haltech ECU, STOCK inlet and exhaust manifolds, STOCK head, baby Waggott cam, Jatco 4 speed and 2800 stall...I have the time slip right here if you' like to see it?...Pound for pound, a single cam RB30 will make as much if not more than a 25 and will hand a 20 its ass all day everyday!...Have you ever driven one with a decent setup? didnt think so...I know of one car here in SA that went low 10s at near on 140mph with the stock MX7 manual, 35/40 (1.06), Tighe cam with the stock head! That car made over 400rwkw on a hub dyno...I could go on but suggest you go do some reading before shooting your mouth off in future.

Cheers, Darren.

This message was aimed at my comment about no way in hell the OP in the previous thread made 200rwkw from a NA RB30 from spending $2000.

Any one notice the key factor that NSNPWR has some how missed? One key element?

How we survive as a species is beyond me.

Well chimpanzees are most closely similar except we cannot mate with one since we have millions of base pairs of DNA that's different. Not to mention the fact that we have 23 pairs of chromosomes and they have 24.

Mating a female horse with a male donkey - Mule

Mating a zebra with a donkey - Zonkey

Mating a female tiger with a lion - liger

Just a few of the bizzare examples :)

      After using a protractor for an actually accurate assessment of what is required,  and by NOT using my uncalibrated eyeball I worked out I need a 25° silicone bend from the TB ro the MAF, but, my choice was either a 30° or a 23° (23° is a weird spec), so I grabbed the 23° one from Raceworks I also grabbed 1mtr of 3" straight from Just Jap, I needed 350mm, but they only had 300mm, or 1mtr lengths....meh Also ordered a 1/2" hose bulkhead fitting from fleabay, this has a smoothish mushroom looking head (they are designed for below the water line of boats) that will fit inside the bend, the hose bit and threaded bit looks to long, but nothing that a hacksaw cannot fix if required, the hose will then just get jamed on the threaded bit up to the retaining nut Fingers crossed and the unsightly amount of hose clamps will be reduced down to 4 once all the parts arrive

      R34 25GT Engine Light 21

      Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.

      I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.

      No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.

      Can you mount the ATTESA pump in other locations?

      Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!
