Congrats to Dave for your blistering 617rwkw run... which he followed up the next day with a 593awkw run.

He took out the Tough as nails, outright power and AWD dyno trophies at Melbourne Autosalon this year.

The dyno runs were pretty consistent, with most cars getting around what they've recorded on other dyno's.

Also of special note, the Osman's $300,000 yellow bathtub recorded a mind boggling 102awkw.

Now all we need is a scan of Leewah's Dyno sheet printout.

More details and discussion in the VIC section.

617 at rears (hence rwkw) and 593 at all fours (hence awkw), think they removed the driveshaft on the front or something to cut off power to the front wheels.

He also has a torque splitter which could have helped.

Thanks for your comments peoples. It was a long road to getting stupid numbers out of the car without it blowing itself to kingdom come.

I haven't scanned the dyno sheet yet but will when I get some time quiet time at home. Should have it up soon.

We'll go racing soon, prob early May once we make sure the car and engine can sustain these power levels for a few runs.

    • Or the brand new throwout may be unhappy...
    • Thanks for the linkie. Certainly always a great deal of help when people post comparisons like these, but I think for now I'll stay away from any semi slicks. I did go ahead and order the sportcontact 7. My buddy has them on his modified A4 and he keeps saying how good they are. For my intended purposes these will probably work real well. I'll report on them once I had the chance to try them out
    • Talk about noisy. Even when I still had the Tomei under the car I could distinctly hear the tires rolling. And I doubt I ever will need maximum grip like on a track. My GTR will maybe never even see the 600hp mark and I need to get used to the car quite a bit before challenging the limits of its handling. For the next winter storage I think I will get a set of these rubber drive-on thingies that have a tire shaped base. Those supposedly really help prevent flat spots.
    • Well our climate is definitely way less hot overall and the weather can be quite picky at times. I just know that during normal road use or even spirited drives there is no way I'd be able to consistently stay in the operating temperature, and constantly changing the tire pressure would also be a royal pain.
    • Input shaft bearing. They all do it. There is always rollover noise in Nissan boxes - particularly the big box. Don't worry about it unless it gets really growly.
