Hi All,

Got my V36 dyno-tuned at CRD yesterday.

Combined with just putting some dry type cold air intakes on it (no other mods), it has tweaked the performance of the car to how I would like it to be with minimal cost.

It removes the throttle lag you get standard with this car and it feels more like it launches more. It has a 'Raspy' racing kind of sound now through all gears.

The dyno print out shows about a 10% gain in power and torque and increased top speed.

It has also made the paddle changes more punchy.

I recommend it as the first thing to do to anyone who has a V36 stock standard as it changes the whole feel of the car.

Cheers.

Did they reflash using ECUtek like mine was? Post up your dyno graphs like I did in 2014. I'd like to compare.

Have you got a link to your graphs ? I would be keen to have a look thanks

OK did sound like a cool story. While we are judging some of you need a hug.

Got the intakes off AsM. 'Satisfaction' Cold Air Intake Systems. You can see on You Tube. The intakes changed the sound of the car.

Anyway that's all I wanted to do to my car so I'm happy with it. They probably flashed it with UPREV and told me it was a dyno-tune, but that's the art of being a mechanic.

For me I'm loving the torque, throttle response and power off the mark, particularly in paddle shift mode as I have an SP.

Attached is the dyno-graph.

I had the "03" 350GT Skyline and put the APS Twin Turbo System on it, only took it to 253awkw I asked for a mild tune, the turbos kicked in early , it was a fun car to drive. Added attachment, just loved that blue

While I was getting some work done on my R34 Jim mentioned something about a different chip for the 350GT that helped maintain the tune or something like that and was a good addition, maybe they have something for your model, ask Jim.

All the best

    • Yeah and hence my ghetto way of slamming the brakes, get the ABS to cycle, rebleed seems to be a sensible workaround.
    • Hey! Happy to help. Nothing inherently wrong with the adapter, it's more so with Brett Collins himself. He gave me a lot of incorrect information when I was in contact with him and was extremely rude when I challenged him. He stated I could not use any aftermarket twin plate clutches except for his own, not to use the dush shield, bla bla bla and it was all BS.  Collins stated to cut roughly 14mm's off the housing, I took off 15mm to make room for the dust shield. I would confirm with whatever adapter manufacturer you're using. 
    • There's plenty of OEM steering arms that are bolted on. Not in the same fashion/orientation as that one, to be sure, but still. Examples of what I'm thinking of would use holes like the ones that have the downward facing studs on the GTR uprights (down the bottom end, under the driveshaft opening, near the lower balljoint) and bolt a steering arm on using only 2 bolts that would be somewhat similarly in shear as these you're complainig about. I reckon old Holdens did that, and I've never seen a broken one of those.
    • Let's be honest, most of the people designing parts like the above, aren't engineers. Sometimes they come from disciplines that gives them more qualitative feel for design than quantitive, however, plenty of them have just picked up a license to Fusion and started making things. And that's the honest part about the majority of these guys making parts like that, they don't have huge R&D teams and heaps of time or experience working out the numbers on it. Shit, most smaller teams that do have real engineers still roll with "yeah, it should be okay, and does the job, let's make them and just see"...   The smaller guys like KiwiCNC, aren't the likes of Bosch etc with proper engineering procedures, and oversights, and sign off. As such, it's why they can produce a product to market a lot quicker, but it always comes back to, question it all.   I'm still not a fan of that bolt on piece. Why not just machine it all in one go? With the right design it's possible. The only reason I can see is if they want different heights/length for the tie rod to bolt to. And if they have the cncs themselves,they can easily offer that exact feature, and just machine it all in one go.
