So I take it that this is no longer really a Skyline Vs Supra thing? I'm just wondering if Skylines and Supras will be out numbered by other kinds of cars? Perhaps we should change the offical name of the event to something a little more fitting? I'm just thinking about the magazine writer/photographer. It wouild be a bit strange to have the title "Skyline vs Supra Dyno Day ACT" (or similar) only to have the article read that there were only 6 Skylines and 2 Supras in a field of 30 cars! I think it would just say to all the readers that there is no import/jap scene in Canberra or that the 2 respective groups are lazy and aren't interested in club events.

Thoughts? Am I thinking about this too much?

Maybe something like "Nissan vs Toyota" or "ACT Import Dyno Day" or "Canberra JDM Dyno Shootout"? I dunno. I just don't want it to reflect poorly on either the 2 main car clubs involved or the organisers.

Anyway, can't wait for Sunday!

Sorry, I didn't realise it wasn't changed on here, but yes, it is more of a Toyota v Nissan type deal now due to the lack of numbers.

Categories for prizes are the same as last year but this time participants will vote for the car for that prize and you cannot vote for the same car twice. This way everyone has a shot of winning something.

Bring a chair as we don't have access to chairs like last year.

I'm not too fussed as to how/what this event reflects on me as this is the last time I'm organising something like this. If you don't enjoy yourself then feel free to blame it on me...

    • neither stumble or cut really seem to be an appropriate term....hard to explain its like a rev limiter but at 4k, but it violently shakes engine and entire vehicle as the rpms will not rise over 4k, even with slow acceleration. as soon as it hits 4k, it sounds like entire spark is lost entirely. plugs were 1.1 which I used as such, but later put in new plugs gapped down to .8 changed back after issue arose when I replaced the coils, still does it with either plug gap...damn and it was all running so good.
    • Oh how times have changed! I actually lean it out relative to my water/methanol injector duty cycle. The methanol adds a lot of fueling and you can then lean it out even more due to reduced knock. 
    • Yeah my thoughts are the same, a well thought out WMI setup, would be slightly ahead of just straight E85 and you're also chemically intercooling the charged air, dropping it even further. This is why you need to add so much more fuel as soon as you spray. I remember someone taking me through their set up before (Dennis, has a R33, lives around Cabramatta - no idea if he's still around on this forum). He would target AFR 10:1 on 98, then as WMI ramped on, AFR would lean back up to 11:1. Amazingly, he did this all through his PowerFC, a relay to cut power to his EBC solenoid if there was not enough line pressure on his WMI kit. And of course, if there wasn't any boost made above gate pressure, you wouldn't be accessing the load cells with heaps of timing for WMI. One downside to that rudimentary setup, once the WMI came on, the EBC would unleash the dragon, and of course all the timing. Tyres would fry lol.

    • They have said food will be limited. Mainly meat pies and sausage rolls from memory. But they have a coffee van!
