Sorry Paul I don't agree - i would put my money on a hub dyno reading more accurately than a roller dyno.  

And if it was reading a little high - then all figures for all cars are a little high - so Tristans would be to high as well????  What did Tristans make at SST during tuning???

Can't people just say  "Top Effort" without having to make excuses or add there opinion.  

588 was a top effort - no matter what fuel he used, how much the car was warmed up, etc ......

If this is the case immacul8 then tristans r33 after been off cold start prolly woulda run 550+ which i highly doubt that it has.

I did say it was a good effort have a read.

But if you say the dynos not very kind ask your self would a cold GTS on stock injectors make 511rwhp and still be rich on a 500flywheel turbo? If so i should be working for the best race teams in the world.

Steve with all due respect - if you believe what you said above - then I can't see why you would put a thread in Forced Induction section stating the proud fact that one of your cars made 511hp????

Yes its a great effort - but maybe you should have said in your post that it made 511hp - but you feel thats not a true indication of the cars power??

guys, i will contribute to this thread, if it stays positive. I drive this car every day. I dont know of any other workshop in perth that would do a power run on a cold motor with forged internals.

I will do a another power run on a dd approved dyno in shoot out mode, and i will post the result.

Thank you for all of the congrats. as i said lets not turn this into a slanging match.

IMACUT8 where in perth are you, would you like to meet at SST for a power run? my shout.

LOL - In no way did I turn this into a slanging match. I made some respectful comments and Steve answered civilly. I dont see the problem.

Read back to the start of the thread - I congratulated you and said what a good effort it was. Im not doubting the power of your car - I was simply stating what a awesome effort HI PSI made from a 4 banger 2 Litre.

What shits me is that one thread on HP figures can't get posted without someone stating that the dyno is shit, reads high, etc ......

Dan

Trisan wanted as close to 500rwhp as we could get for PAS and got 511 on the day so lets just be happy for him,and yes its on the road today in the same trim as sat and will be this time next week, are the others?The S13 made 490rwhp on a DD dyno and that is the figure i think is right and think it is the most powerful SR in WA, till this Saturday when we crank Ants Datt up hard but they are very different setups.

apparently tristan's made ~430 on sst's dyno? i agree with paul....

can someone confirm....?

i agree with you tho dan when you say its a big effort....because it is....

maybe the extra power on all the cars is a result of no tyre slippage on the dyno?? could that have that much effect?

Steve, out of interest wot did tristan run at sst before PAS is fane correct with the 430hp~

    • Even more fun, leave all the ADAS stuff plugged in, but in different locations, hopefully avoid any codes!   And honestly, all these new cars with their weird electronics. Pull all the electronics out Duncan, and just shove an aftermarket ECU and if needed a trans controller in, along with a PDM. Make it run basic but race car styled!
    • To follow up a question from earlier too since I had the front bar off again (fking!) This is what is between the bumper and the drivers side wheel And this is the navigator side, only one thing but its a biggy! So basically....no putting coolers in the wheel arches without a lot of moving other stuff. Assuming I move to properly race prepping this car I'll take that job on and see how the computers respond to removing a whole bunch of ADAS modules
    • So I prepped the car for another track day on Wednesday (will be interesting to see coolant temps post flushing out and the larger reservoir, with a forecast of 3-14 being 20o cooler than last time I took it out). Couple of things to mention; since I am just driving the car and not taking a support vehicle, I took the rear seats out and just loaded the back up Team Trackday style. Look at all that space! To cover off removing the rear seat....it is weird (note the hybrid is probably different because it wouldn't have folding rear seats) Basically, you remove the lower seat base, very similar to a r series but it is a clip that pulls forward to release the base rather than it being bolted down. Easy Then, you need to remove the side section of the rear seat on each side. There is a 14mm head nut at the bottom of the side piece, the it slides upwards off a hook at the top to release; you also need to unhook the seatbelt from the loop at the top. Then the centre piece is weird. You need to release/fold the seats forward with the tab in the boot on each side From there, there are 2,x12mm headed bolts holding the rear of each seat to the folding bracket, under the trim between the rear seat and the boot (4x christmas tree clips there, they suck). The seat is out but you can see where the bolts attach to the bracket
    • As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year. 
    • I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
