Hey people,

Just a quick report on the Dyno day at TM Autosports tuggerah today.

Apporx 45 cars were dynoed, I thought i did well to get 159rwkw out of my almost bog stock RB25DET, that is until the Autostyle cars pulled up...

The most interesting being the R32 GTR, which made over 400kw at all 4 paws!

I was amazed that such a powerful (street driven) car could look so clean.

TM Autosports also dif a great job of organising and making the day an enjoyable one for all the participants.

nmcmahon83: even though that 308 didn't make much power I thought it rocked. If I ever had to get rid of my 33 I would consider getting one of the...

It was a good day in general.... I thought TM did a really good job at organising considering it is the first one they have ever held... and the fact that the cars were on and off fairly quickly was good too as they haven't had their dyno that long.

and andrew, they arent all like that !!! :)

I know... But their participation at Drag Combat was quite lame... 6 GTRs all displaying around 400kw @ wheel dyno sheets in their windscreens, and none of them ran :nowigetit

Dyno queens :)

Thanks for the compliments on the car Talej, sure it's old and stuff, but it was a nice change for the day if you ask me :) something different.

The dyno brake wasn't working properly as I understand, so they had a bit of trouble getting the high powered cars off it after their runs. All in all it was a pretty cool day.

By the way it was FLYBYE the R32 GTR... looked pretty nice too.

Franks the only thing autostyle about the black car is the sticker on the windscreen, that was one week after I had traded it in and nothing had been done to it

I agree with Merli this time it makes me sick to see all those so called dyno monsters at Dragcombat just sitting doing nothing damn waste if you ask me

I'm not really dissing Autostyle... They have some beauuuuuuuuuutiful cars... I just think it's a shame to be making so much power and not using the cars to their potential, and instead just cruising around the city and going to street races sad2.gif

hahaha nah Franky the car came with the badge, I had planned on getting a respray and having it removed, but ended up selling it before I had a chance to, I can't blame the Autostyle cars not racing at every meet but it would be nice to see them having a go at big events sometimes

Hey Brett, nah i just got mine started after installing the microtech the night befoure, and yes still has too be tuned in, but will be down the coast for a cruze with yahs very soon !...

yes i would have too say it was a very satisfying day all the cars(42) were on and off in modist haste thanks too me and Wayne THE STRAP DOWN GUYS... hehe

i was impressed too see the a GTIR crew turn up and a few others ...

the owners of TM were happy that everyone was happy with there performance and will be having runs more often in the future ....

thanking also Dom n Tim for bringing there Killawatt kings up it realy livened the day up ... even a few burnouts down the end of the coldersack was all good too .....

440 was the biggest reading of the day at the rear from Doms 2.6DET 204R powered old school Z

Tims was the biggest all four with the R32 poppping out just over 400KW and only the lowest setting too add .....

anyway it was a great day and many more too come in the future ...

(ohh just too add about the autostyle "dyno queens" if you had a car worth over 100k would you thrash the guts out of it just for the sake of it ? i shure wouldnt .....they are more into the drift days anyway .... )

Yep Dan I agree thats why I don't blame them for not racing at every meet, just be nice to see the big GTR's racing at bigger meets like Drag combat instead of sitting pretty in the carpark, but if drift is there thing I guess thats fair enough

Sounds like a geat day was had by all, good luck with the final stages of your car mate you must be getting excited now

      Unpeeling the Orange

      By MBS206 · Posted

      I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!

      Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.

      The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!

      The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
