Hey guys ive pretty much bought a R34 GTR V-Spec, just want to throw it on the rollers to confirm the claimed power. Anyway as this is my first AWD car i have no idea who has a AWD dyno. Im hoping someone can point me to a reputable place to get a few power runs done. Ideally South would be nice as thats where the guy lives (around Sturt, Marion etc), otherwise anywhere from South Road down Sturt/Marion to the City and anywhere inbetween.

Thanks

Don't muck around with the rest, go to Willall Racing - best dyno (for REAL figure, not fluffed up figures provided by many other workshops) and they can have a quick look over the car to make sure you are getting what you are paying for, and that you are not buying a hand-grenade.

I think Horse Power In A Box has one, but don't quote me on that.

Honestly though, it's a GTR, don't mess around, organise the time to take it to Willall out near the Port.

Edit: Beaten to it by Andrew, what he said!

Yeah ive worked on them for mates just never had to think about finding a dyno lol Yeah i would go Willall but doubt we can make it, just remembered about Steve Knight so might be the go due to location. Any place have a hub dyno?

Car looks good, i checked it over the other week and it was all gravy. Just a tad suprised at the claimed power on such low boost. Other than that she is a done deal unless a client of mine ends up selling his 35 for cheap :P

HPIAB has a 2 wheel drive dyno.

He sure does, I think Graham West also has an AWD Dyno and they are located on Marion Road.

Graham West Workshops have a AWD dyno. They are a decent workshop as well for being down south. First recommendation would be going to Willall's but if you want to be down south that GWW is a good option. They use a mainline dyno as well from memory.

no such thing as a best dyno..a dyno is a tool for tuning, you want to show hp...its black and 400m long..end of story

    • New CAS just turned up from NZ Wiring. Looks like a nice bit of gear.  So, yeah. Triggered, bro. Realised I may as well do the cam belt while mucking about with it so will order one of them.
    • Even more fun, leave all the ADAS stuff plugged in, but in different locations, hopefully avoid any codes!   And honestly, all these new cars with their weird electronics. Pull all the electronics out Duncan, and just shove an aftermarket ECU and if needed a trans controller in, along with a PDM. Make it run basic but race car styled!
    • To follow up a question from earlier too since I had the front bar off again (fking!) This is what is between the bumper and the drivers side wheel And this is the navigator side, only one thing but its a biggy! So basically....no putting coolers in the wheel arches without a lot of moving other stuff. Assuming I move to properly race prepping this car I'll take that job on and see how the computers respond to removing a whole bunch of ADAS modules
    • So I prepped the car for another track day on Wednesday (will be interesting to see coolant temps post flushing out and the larger reservoir, with a forecast of 3-14 being 20o cooler than last time I took it out). Couple of things to mention; since I am just driving the car and not taking a support vehicle, I took the rear seats out and just loaded the back up Team Trackday style. Look at all that space! To cover off removing the rear seat....it is weird (note the hybrid is probably different because it wouldn't have folding rear seats) Basically, you remove the lower seat base, very similar to a r series but it is a clip that pulls forward to release the base rather than it being bolted down. Easy Then, you need to remove the side section of the rear seat on each side. There is a 14mm head nut at the bottom of the side piece, the it slides upwards off a hook at the top to release; you also need to unhook the seatbelt from the loop at the top. Then the centre piece is weird. You need to release/fold the seats forward with the tab in the boot on each side From there, there are 2,x12mm headed bolts holding the rear of each seat to the folding bracket, under the trim between the rear seat and the boot (4x christmas tree clips there, they suck). The seat is out but you can see where the bolts attach to the bracket
    • As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year.
