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.

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
