Gotta love the ruler flat torque curve once on boost, unlike the mountain peaks ive seen before! Very nice work....

Just wondering, how much did the correction affect the score?

I think everyone with half a brain figures out it's dodgy and just a joke within 10 seconds of seeing the dyno chart :P

It's not meant to be serious, it's all in good fun :D

LOL well the only pics I saw of the chart had a finger in the way!

p.s. WTB: ½-brain

As a rule... as soon as you see Merli post, dont expect it to be anywhere near seriousness

All fun and games.

hehe i was waitin for Merli to get his pantihose in a knot when his 100% error calibration power figure was ousted by a real car :D hehe

and denham, that can't be a new Dyno coz

a) we had our fundraiser dyno day on it about a week beforehand on it

B) it blew fuses 3 times on the weekend due to power surges... (all matlowth's fault :) with his RB30DET sporting T07 or some BFT)

c) when Sam opened her up to check for that stone when Ben put his GTR on, i could clearly see old gears with rust in places and cobwebs like it hadn't been opened for a while

Shan - you have got about 4% of facts right from MAS so far!

It was Emre that killed the dyno with his 2530's set-up. For a while there we thought he was going to be the out-right winner with 340ish awkw's as it didnt look like the dyno was going to run again. (Especially for me who had my car on it for 3 hours straight after and in the end didnt even get to run that day!)

And I was told the other day RH9 was sold and is now a street car.

lol the dyno was killed a few times... does Emre have a burgandy R33 with an RB30DET that looks VERY sleeper like?

argh u tools... i was talkin bout malowth's stint at blowing up the dyno, not Emre... altho all the fangers did a top job of blowing that dyno up :)

It hasn't run with the power it's putting out now, but back when it was making 380-400ish rwkw, it ran a 10.9.

If you look in the HPI top 10 RWD over 2.4l, it's number 1.

Cheers,

matt

Matt its the blue GTST with Street Macines sign wrote all over it with GTR front gaurds and a RB26, I checked it out at our Jamboree damn nice car, running smaller twin Apexi turbos, Nitrous and Mickey Thompson ET street slicks it was running constant 10.9's all weekend

    • FWIW, I've aerated oil, and cams snapped. You can figure out the rest 🥲
    • Depending on the hose, sometimes engine out is the easiest option  
    • Get an inspection camera up there. 
    • Yeah, but look at the margin in viscosity between the 40 and the 60 at 125°C. It is not very large. It is the difference between 7 and 11 cP. Compare that to the viscosity at only 90°C. The viscosity axis is logarithmic. The numbers at 90 are ~15 and ~35. That is about half for the 40 wt oil and <half for the 60. You give up viscosity EXPONENTIALLY as temperature rises. Literally. That is why I declare thicker oil to be a bandaid, and a brittle one at that. Keep the oil temperature under about 110°C and you should be better off.   Having said all of that, which remains true as a general principle, if you have indeed lost enough oil from the sump that the pump was seeing slightly aerated oil, then all bets are off. That would of course cause oil pressure to collapse. And 35 psi is a collapse given what you were doing to the engine. Especially if the oil was that hot and viscosity had also collapsed. And I would put money on rod or main bearings being the source of the any noise that registered as knock. Hydraulic lifters should be able to cope with the hotter oil and lower pressure enough to prvent too much high frequency noise, although I am willing to admit it could be the source.
