It is _exactly_ what my graph looked like when i was spinning the wheels. Doesn't necessarily mean massive power (well maybe for Melv but not for me) just poor alignment or strapping. The dyno calculates your power depending on your torque but Millenium Motorsport was explaining that all the new software can recognise the different gear and modify the output to be closer to 1:1.

We asked all the hard questions today at Gavin's....

3rd gear was because 4th puts too much load for too long on the engine. During a power run its probably fine to do, but when tuning you want to hold specific revs for a bit and its too much load to stay on in 4th. *gasp* At least, thats my dumbed-down understanding of what Gavin actually said, which had lots of complex words in them (most of them were more than 1 syllable so buggered if I could understand them) and scientific words like "torque" and "kilowatt" and Stuff :bonk:

Uhm and the blips are indeed caused by power transfering cause the Thing that measures g forces and Stuff and decides when to put drive to the front wheels gets all confused :headspin: cause the car is actually sitting still. Again, this is a dumbed down version for I am but a lowly fridgie and he is the almighty Running Bear Who Works On Skylines With Sitting Bull ;)

So yeah, I'll bet THAT clears it all up.... :looney:

krawler - dont know mate u will have to ask them.

it was done at DYNO SOURCE a 4wd dyno and was just be re-calabrated a week before hand.

gavin sayed another one of his gtrs made 617hp on a engine dyno and on the dyno source dyno it made 387hp@awhp

and that car has the works done to it with a HUGE single turbo.

wouldnt mind seeing what it would make on another dyno, prob another 60hp all depends on the dyno and how it reads.

Why dont you bring it to the dyno shoot-out at all star tuning on Saturday!!!!

I wouldn't trust her Melv.....

Me on the other hand? ........well lets just say they don't call me honest Chris for nothing and not only that, I will come and pick the car up for you, so you don't have to bring the keys to me like you do with Erin :(

    • Which solenoid? Why was it changed? Again, why was this done? ...well, these wear..but ultimately, why was it changed? Did you reset the idle voltage level after fitment? I'm just a tad confused ~ the flash code doesn't allude to these items being faulty, so in my mind the only reason to change these things, would be some drive-ability issue....and if that's the case, what was the problem? Those questions aside, check if the dropping resistor is OK ...should be 11~14 ohms (TCU doesn't throw a flash code for this) ~ also, these TCU designs have full time power (to keep fault code RAM alive), and I think that'll throw a logic code (as opposed to the 10 hardware codes), if that power is missing (or the ram has gone bad in the TCU, which you can check..but that's another story here perhaps).
    • Question for people who "know stuff" I am looking at doing the new intake like the one in the picture (the pictured is designed for the OEM TB and intake plenum), this design has the filter behind the front bar, but, the filter sits where the OEM duct heads into the front bar, and the standard aperture when the OEM ducting is removed allows the filter to pulled back out of the front bar into the engine bay for servicing, a simple blanking plate is used to seal the aperture behind the filter This will require a 45° silicone hose from the TB, like the alloy pipe that is currently there, to another 45° silicone hose to get a straight run to the aperture in the front bar Question: how will it effect the tune if I move the MAF about 100-150mm forward, the red is around where my MAF is currently, and the green would be where it would end up Like this This is the hole the filter goes through  Ends up like this LOL..Cheers    
    • Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.
    • Pull codes via the self-diagnosis procedure. As far as I can tell this is just a sign of transmission issues but not a code unto itself.
    • Hi All, putting the engine back together and everything is perfect except have this plug left over.. any ideas what it is for and where it goes? Is on cold side under the intake plenum *note not a stock plug, as everything has been modified Cheers
