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

Great to see the dyno day is finalised!!!!

With that said I'm definetly in!!!!

People, remember this is a 4wd dyno, so you guys out there with GTR's, there is no excuse for not coming along!!!!!

Oh by the way, Protek Automotive 273 Dundas Street Preston PH. 94843117....

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.

    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
    • Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention
    • So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34
    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
