Rev210...  lol  I almost forgot about that.. we got chewed out by that cop good and proper huh..  well we were doing just a tad over the limit.

I'm thinking the reading is a bit high, as a month or two earlier, same mods except 14 psi, i got 219 at Fuel Inj Services, in Belmont.    who knows..?

Yes, we did get an ear bashing. What was he talking about anyway?

219rwhp sounds about right for the car, you don't need much to go quick in the s13's and thats enough power to run 13s easy in your car.

Guys, its simple really. If you want feel good #'s so you think you have a big HP monster, go to Myaree Dyno, if you want the most accurate # you can really get go to Genie(because u can only turn a 3 ton concrete roller so fast). If you want good basis # that you can compare with pretty much rest of australia(which id a Dyno Dynamic dyno #) then go to PSi or Formaz... and both have a 4wd dyno. Or if you want something special go to Speedworks for the Dynapack dyno(but involves taking rims off and lotsa work etc)

SST Anyone ??

They looked after the Silvia WA guys.

I went to a dyno day at PSI and they boosted my car WITHOUT asking me. They boosted it no less with a t piece tube. Then to add insult to injury left the t-piece on my car WITHOUT telling me. I drove off and the car was overboosting. Pulled up and discovered the T-Piece.

Go to PSI if you guys want but it is at your own perril ........

SST dyno reads the same as PSI anyhow .... REAL FIGURES.

Oh and another thing, we almost died watchin the dyno runs at PSI. PSI has no extractor fan and the workshop filled with exhaust fumes. Cough Cough :(

The screen was excellent though. Were ever u go, orginise that !!

should be HAD no fan.

It was pretty bad though. Not only is it well ventilated now, but they have actually moved to diff location. And newer Dyno.. (as mentioned)

Summoner.. i actually went to Myaree cause it was the only one that i could book at an hours notice, was cheap (50 bucks for three runs).. and he printed the A/F ratio on the dyno sheet, so i could see that i wasn't leaning out too much in the top end.

I needed to know the a/f before i took it down to the Plex that night and thrashed the hell out of it.

but.... that said, to anyone who didn't know better, it does bring a smile to ya face.

righto

Rob u call and organise for a mid december weekend day at speedworks.

post a new thread in events when u have all your details and we'll start taking names.

if you say your in and forget to show without a valid reason poor form and it makes it alot harder for us to sort these things in the future as a poor turn out, after much hype from the guy organising it can get the tune shops off side.

also we can organise another in late janurary as that date sounds like it suited the other two shops anyway.

settled after rob has details posted i'm closing this thread.

    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
