Ok guys, all finalised today.

Date: 23/10/2004

Time: 9am till afternoon

Venue: Protek - 273 Dundas Street, Preston (will get the number tomorrow as i forgot)

Price: $40 This will drop if we get more than 25 cars.

This is a 4WD DYNO - Perfect for GTR Owners to pit against the RWD counterparts

Ok, this is going to be very simple. This will not run like other SAU-Vic Dyno Days.

There is a new process due to people not backing up thier keyboards and showing to these events.

Thus causing dyno operators to be out of pocket for thier time.

If you wish to run, you must Pay in Advance, no refunds will be given out if you "sleep in".

Might sound harsh, but its only fair to Protek, and other people who can stick to a time.

I will have a spreadsheet of timeslots from 9am onwards, in 20 mins blocks.

* All payments required by the 16th Oct

* First to pay, gets to pick thier preferred time

* There is ample time to pay, I think there is:

1) One general meeting.

2) The Warburton cruise.

3) I'll put my account details up when i know what they for EFT's.

* I can just allocate you a time if you want to specify a few hours range :)

More details to come in the next two days.

Any rubbish posts will be deleted, and warnings dealt out if you whore my thread :D

I'm in, never been to a dyno day (never had my car on a dyno...yet) Getting a tune on Thursay. Should be good to see the discrepancy if any between dynos. I will make payment on the cruse. Does that mean I get to select a time now? If so I will take 11am'ish :mad:

ash, i can transfer money as soon as you give details but my only issue is that i have cricket that afternoon so would prefer an early time (cricket starts at 12:30pm) if that is ok..? like 9:30-10:00 or so... if this can be arranged then i'm a definate... you can have my balls as insurance :) (my girlfriend has them at the moment just go see her)

since the last dyno day i've fixed my pinging, added 3" exhaust and rechipped ECU so should be interesting...

thanks again ash!

Warren.

Try putting it in the normal Vic section for a while (even though it does not belong, I'm sure more ppl will look at the thread). I never used to look at the events section (just habbit I suppose)

Remove reply if required.

Would they be willing to give the SAFC a quick tweak, should it require it? Wasn't the next dyno day suppose to be at ICE?

not really 20 min per car has been allocated.

Thats enough time to get them on, off, strapped and have a few runs etc.

If you want to buy two slots, you might be able to have some tuning time as it takes longer. But then you'd have to pay for Dom to tune it if he wants to.

So its unlikely but i can ask.

And the next dyno day was never "going" to be @ ICE.

There was discussions, but its not a good time for the at present and thats fine.

Maybe later this year or next.

Ash, is this 'members only'?  

if you are lacking numbers my mate with a TX5 turbo might be very interested and would pay in advance also. i'm assuming 4WD dyno's can do FWD cars?

This is not SAU specific. Just an SAU hosted event.

That said, priority goes to Skylines.

Seeing as though we are struggling for cars, due to a dyno day not too long ago anyhow, its open to anyone.

We need another 5-10 cars before this will go ahead.

i recently went to a dyno day there. Personally i'm not attacking the business but they didn't seem that professional, i.e the cars didn't have ANY play on the dyno which if you know a thing or two about strapping the car down, it SHOULD have some play. The readings were kind of higher than most dynos other people had been on and also half the cars they couldnt run due to problems with the wheels slipping on down gearing which I believe was due to teh way the cars were strapped down.

The WRX club also had a few problems/higher readings there if you check out their forums as well as the 300 club.

Hope you guys don't cop the same stuff and it turns out to be a good day.

    • Near 12mths since the last update apologies.  Car is back running and driving.  Have had a few runs at the drag strip also with a bit of success.  Managed to run tje cars PB with a 10.88 @139mph with a 2.0 60ft.  I have a stock 8hp converter and it's definitely too tight for my setup. But it drives on the street phenomenal. So happy to have converted from the sequential. Has made the car enjoyable to drive vs a what felt like a chore with the sequential.  Looking a at few different options for converters waiting for some feedback from SDE if he can do one for me.  Still a few minor things to work out regarding finalising torque reduction, I have it working but needs to refining.     
    • I honestly wouldn’t bother with this. They don’t hold up under any serious strain. Get the Blackline (Chinese fake Quaife) if anything, as it’s reported to perform pretty well. 
    • For future reference, I believe all that Amayama does is act as a middleman between you and Nissan. Go to your local dealership, ask nicely for a parts account (I get 15% off with mine) and you'll get better pricing. Cheers, 
    • Hi guys, I have a 2005 V35 skyline with the vq35de.  It is a drift car and has been stripped, its now running a standalone ECU and a body harness. Dash everything has been changed to a digital dash controlled by ecu.  The vq35de has been great, very reliable but wanting more HP atm the 35de is making 228rwhp. I'd like to be making about 350rwhp. From my research it looks like a vq25det lightly modified could be a good engine to swap in. I understand the CD trans will bolt up right to the vq25det with a 35de sump used.  My only issue is a wiring harness/ecu to control the vq25det, from what i've found the ecu is a lot different to the vq35de so my plugin for the 35de will not work. Is there any potential to use the vq35de wiring harness and modify as necessary to retain the plugin ecu?  Keen to hear what you guys think, or am I best off to chuck on a cheap turbo kit on the 35de and see how long it lasts.   
    • Oh sorry Justin! I was racking my brain trying to remember names, not sure why I associated “Adam” with 7tune! I’m good, been away from Skylines for over a decade, got family and kids now. Just getting back into owning a 32 but it’s a whole different world now… tax is higher and tech is better.
