Hi guys, the rub for me is quite simple, Munro's car does the numbers on the Tillbrook dyno and runs the times and speed commensurate with what the dyno says. Wilson's car does the numbers on the Willall dyno and runs the times and speed commensurate with what the dyno says. Theo's car does the numbers on the Croydon dyno and runs the times and speed commensurate with what the dyno says. Mark's car does does the numbers on the Sub Zero dyno and runs the times and speed commensurate with what the dyno says. David Lee's car does the numbers on the Ice dyno and runs the times and speed commensurate with what the dyno says. Bu5ter's car ran the numbers on the dyno and guess what...............

That's Qld, NSW, Vic and SA Skylines all doing times and speed that look something like the cars are capable of according to their dyno results, not once but hundreds of times. Readers can draw your own conclusions:cheers:

Ok,

How about this, Fair enough your car made the power… How about the other factors effecting its performance ? Eg how about a 7th injector plumbed into the intake ? or even a shot of Gas ?, what about the fuel ? running Bp sure, but did you add a pinch of toluene ?

Some of the factors that can really increase power on a Dyno.

I know tristans car quite well. there is no 7th injector , no shot of gas , runs everyday b p ultimate with nothing mixed in it .

When tristan goes down to the plex next week he will be able to show what his car is capable of hopefully . 440 odd rwhp dd in a r33 should see it do maybe 120-125mph and hopefully an 11 to go with it. At the end of the day its not setup for drag. Its his street driven car and will just try and get the best out of it.

Im with you SydneyKid ........

I always see/hear awesome dyno results but am yet to see one of these cars run a decent time.

LOL..why is it if you dont take it down the 1/4 mile ppl wave the "shiela" flag:)

While i respect those that are into drag racing it does little for me...i find myself wanting to do a pass just so if ppl ask i have an idea:)

Either way even if dyno figures are playing silly buggers, its still making great power, hell even if the dyno is reading 100hp high, the thing still has plenty of mumbo:)

Im with Joel, i want a magnifying glass and 20mins alone with the car...i want to know how it makes that power with std injectors:) (LOL...for the sensitive ppl, i dont doubt the result, im just intrigued how it gets there)

Anytime any of you are in WA bring on the magnafying glasses.

This is Steve-SST not paul.

LOL...be careful im banned from most workshops. Someone told me a good tale about mechanic rates, $60/hr if you drop off the car, $90/hr if you want to watch and $120 if you want to help. LOL...sounds about right to me:)

I am too interested whats being done to my car and why its done a certain way to the point that mechanics typically want to sedate me upon entering the premises:)

Magic1 is posting a tru shootout graph today.

I think what we have here is that if i cant do it they cant, but we do sorry.

We get told by the same ppl in WA all the time that our power is shit and the only test is Speedworks dyno then when we make more than we claim on it we are still talking shit.

Last year SK said GTS-ts car cant make the 411rwhp we claim then it went on the Speedworks dyno and made 436 and here we are again even tho Magic one has topped 400rwhp on 4 diffrent brand dynos.SK pick up your game.

Ok so it seems, that Steve-SST and Sydney Kid, are having a argument so, is this why this thread was created ? How about we get both Sydney Kid and Steve-SST, in a boxing ring and they can vent their disagreements out their ?

Instead of trying to prove who is better then who.

My theory is, if you want to prove who is better then who, in Car land, Don’t do it on a dyno, Do it on a 1/4mile with the same tyre setup and the same driver for both cars. Ohh yes and on the same Strip.

I don't think that that is the solution. What is wrong with two different people expressing both their ideas and views on a certain subject? No one is trying to prove who is better than who, and I doubt that a boxing ring will prove anything apart from punching ability (or lack thereof :(). I don't mind intelligent debate that benefits everyone as there are always different methods that can be taken to achieve a certain goal. Keep things civil and on topic and we can all learn from it.

I do, however, think that a 1/4 mile drag battle will be a good spectacle :D

My 2c with respect to backing up dyno figures with drag results (especially mph)...

With a tad less than 300rkw (400rwhp) and with a race weight of 1557kg (car was 1475kg on weigh bridge with full tank of juice, + my 82kg) I managed to run 120mph. And it was far from a perfect pass.

So based on the above info I think a 400rwhp GTS25t should be able to run well into the 120-125mph range. A 500rwhp GTS25t should be into the 130mph range. These estimates are based on a full weight car, so naturally any weigh reduction will help to increase these terminal speeds. It might take a few passes to achieve these speeds, but even an average driver should manage to do it eventually. I did and I can't drive for shit :(

my full weight R33 128mph constantly with 420hp

I thought you had more than 420 by the time you ran 128 traps Brett? Weren't you into 330+rwkw (440+rwhp) territory?

Just going off track slightly, how much did your mph drop on a poor pass? Say a 2.1-2.2 60ft but clean pass otherwise?

yep Matt I had 330rwkw never got to run it with the more power though before it dropped the ringland, to be honest all my 60ft's were bad hahaha that mph was done doing 2.0 60fts even with a 2.1-2.2 it didn't change more then 2-3mph

    • 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.
    • Place the new daughterboard in the case and mount it using the 3 small black rivets provided, and reconnect the 3 factory ribbon cables to the new board Then, use the 3 piggyback cables from the daughterboard into the factory board on top (there are stand offs in the case to keep them apart. and remember to reconnect the antenna and rear cover fan wires. 1 screw to hold the motherboard in place. Before closing the case, make a hole in the sticker covering a hole in the case and run the cable for the android unit into the plug there. The video forgot this step, so did I, so will you probably. Then redo the 4 screws on back, 2 each top and bottom, 3 each side and put the 2 brackets back on.....all ready to go and not that tricky really.
