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

    • This looks great! Awesome to have the 5 speed with an LSD in this. The Recaro's look like SR2's or SR3's. It's a shame they've been retrimmed as they would have looked sweet in their original colours. I think I'd want my agent to be a little more up front and informative too. I've never imported but I reckon it would make me a little nervous, so the more info the better.
    • Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.
    • My dream is also to have a proper hoist, but I don't think it will ever happen. My quickjack is probably as close as I'll ever get, it really is very good though. 
    • Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno
    • Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.
