Are the trhee runs in succession with-out pulling the car off the dyno? I ask coz I would like to test a chip I have made and to do that I will need to pull the ECU out and change the chips between runs with will take approx 5 min. Do you think this will be ok?

Done, done and done! Will be an unreal day with a couple of 8's to make clowns out of :P

Call me on 0417009831 or email to [email protected] with any questions EXCEPT FOR HOW TO GET THERE!!! I've only been there once before and I'll be using a map too!

Suggest you look at Whereis Online to get directions.

Thanks all. And don't forget your cameras!

Hey - It's just off the Pacific Hwy , right A ??? he he he (kidding)

I'm coming but won't be in the Line !! I'm Damn %hitty about that !! The car is still in bits !!!!!

Guys,

The place is just off the Great Western Highway. Turn off the highway when you see a Kennards Hire place (across the road from Fox Hill golf course). Go down Toongabie road and take the first right into Amax Avenue. Go up the road till you see a set of Business units next to the Baida Chicken Factory. Go right to the back of the Units and you will see some cars. We are Unit 17.

See you all there :O

    • The team at OBD2 Australia are pretty good, shoot them an email and ask them. I've dealt with them before for work stuff. I'd be shocked if it didn't work, so long as Consult can activate the ABS. But you might need to use KLine for it which would be the stopper, as I don't think that piece does KLine comms.
    • 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.
