Well, some of you have mentioned that you would like a dyno day run for SAU, I have been ringing around a few places to try and get prices.

Before going any further with the organising, I just need to know how many people would be interested in attending.

Obviously, the more people that come, the cheaper it will be and the more fun will be had.

So, if I could just call for members who are interested in an exclusive Dyno Day to say I, and I'll try and work out which option will be better financially from the few places that have responded with resonable prices.

Also, people's opinions on opening up the invite to another club if the numbers aren't reached to have an exclusive day. Please let us know your opinion on the matter, and who you might like to invite. (Eg. WRX club or something) It will be a CLUB that is invited.. Not a website (Eg. Boostcruising or Qld Streetcar).

So go nuts and tell me what you think of the ideas! Only putting down definites now. Maybe's dont help me make up numbers :)

not fussed whoever turns up if numbers are needed. Even the pope could turn up and we could test how much that beast the Pope Mobile puts out at the wheels, hell I'd be all for that too :(

Some idea on pricing may be good. Think a lot of the time what happens people go "I'm keen" then the price comes up and people go ohhh, maybe not. Then the numbers are less than expected. just my 2c

At the moment the prices I have are from Mercury Motorsport and The Brock Shop. With being a 4WD dyno, it's a little more expensive.

Mercury Motorsport - Newmarket (Also a sponsor of SAU QLD)

With around 30 cars the cost will be $45 per car. Obviously the less cars, the more it's going to cost. But that was an average of how many cars they will probably get through in a day of dyno'ing. That price is for both 2WD and 4WD which I thought was a good cost. That also includes like a "waiting room" which has like seating facilities, pool table, other "Stuff" and a screen which shows the dyno readout of the car that is being dynoed downstairs. It also includes a BBQ lunch for the the members running their cars on the dyno. Drinks are $1 each as well. Includes 2 power runs using the Shootout mode and a print out of the figure.

The Brock Shop - Underwood

They have said it would be around $40 for 2WD and $50 for 4WD with a dyno print out. Thats all the information I have obtained at this point in time. Not sure how many runs but I gather it would be 2 + a print out.

CNJ (Carb N Jet) - Underwood

$88 per car. I personally think this is WAY too expensive for a dyno run and a piece of paper.

Dynosource - Nerang

Still waiting for a response. I have been to Dynosource before and like the way they run the dyno days. Last time it cost $30 for 2WD and $40 for 4WD. That included two power runs using shoot out mode and a print out of the figure. Will wait to see what offer they have this time around. Apparently they have changed owners since then.

All the Dyno places I have contacted have been Dynonamics dynos because after the last SVD Dyno day, people didn't seem too happy with the power figures from the dynologics dyno.

    • Pressure when IDLING, is meant to be 51PSi... So that amperage value needs to go up a fair chunk... I'd personally be factoring for more like 12amp at least on those runs, and at that point you need to hope the already there wiring doesn't drop you a volt or two, as that's a lot of fuel pressure flow drop off from 13.5 to 12V! Taking idle pressure of 51psi, means the pump will be drawing a MINIMUM of 9amps all the time based on your reading of the graph (3bar base, then allowing an extra 0.5bar for boost = roughly 51psi)
    • Hi all,  I am in the market for an R200 longnose diff out of a Z31 300ZX, or S12 RSX, DR30 skyline, or similar, in a 3.9 ratio.  Preferably a late model one with the M12 crownwheel bolts.  The only easy to find advert for one of these was my ad back in 2007 when I sold it on this forum.  I sold the diff as I had sold the car it goes to, but as it turns out, after 18 years I got the car back late last year, so now I'm looking for the diff !  If anyone knows where to find a longnose R200 LSD with the M12 crownwheel bolts, drop me a line at [email protected] - Bonus paid if soomeone comes up with the original diff (stranger things have happened !).  Cheers   Ben D    
    • Hi everyone, I used to post here a bit from 2004-2013, when I owned various Nissans, in particular my S12 RSX gazelle, which was sold in 2007.  As luck would have it, after an 18 year hiatus, the car found its way back to me last year, and over the past 11 months I have had the pleasure of restoring it with my kids.  One thing that I am after in particular is a 3.9 ratio R200 LSD for it.  I actually sold the one out of the car here back in 2007 , and it would be incredible if I could track down who I sold it to, so I can see how they have progressed over the years (and to be honest, to see whether I can get the diff back !).  Anyways, hi all and let me know "where are the R200 Longnose diffs all at these days ?  Cheers Ben D  
    • Arms will be the same as the G35 or 350Z, but as above, there was a change in the lower control arm where it connects to the ball joint.  That said, you can remove the ball joint cone from your old ball joints and fit them to the new ball joints.  To be honest, I didn't think the ball joints themselves were different. The main ball joint is a bit awkward to replace, you really need to remove the steering knuckle to press out the old one.  Some people have used tools to remove it in place, but it just seemed too hard to get to. If you are going to press out/in that ball joint, then you may as well just replace the bushings in the LCA and the compression rod.  You can buy the compression rod bushing from Nissan, but the LCA bushes, you will need to go aftermarket. Much cheaper than buying the whole arm.
    • Ha, well, it's been.... a bit of a journey. Things have taken much longer than I'd hoped. I'll probably put up a thread at some stage. Hopefully soon. The car's not done any kms since my update in June though, put it that way.
