Hey there,

What are your experiences with dyno places around Perth? What are most accurate dyno places and cheapest, i been to Speedworks ($200/hour) and Rotomotion ($110/hour) and i got 97kW and 101kW though with different setups on my Cordia (i know it's not a skyline but next one should hopefully be)...so how these dynos compare with other u had experience with and which dyno places offer only dyno runs?

other thing at Rotomotion i got only power line diagram, while at speedworks i got also air fuel ratios throughout rev range, torque, boost levels etc so i found rotomotion dyno bit more useful

regards

end of the day a dyno is a tuning tool. if your interested in a max power figure you know there are places which can arrange for that. if you want to see afr's, boost levels, torgue lines etc, then go to a dyno place that can do this for you. also make sure your paying a good price for what your getting.

Hmmm, what are you after??

We can give you any power figure you want, but that is not the point. Run out of shootout and we can gain HP without touching the car........

As Teejay rightfully explains, it is a tuning tool and what counts is the times around the track/down the strip. It is amazing the cars that have huge HP numbers that don't equate to 1/4 mile top speed results.

As said on numerous other threads, stick with the same dyno that is repeatable and do a series of mods you have discussed with your tuner/mechanic.

Cheers

Ken

      After using a protractor for an actually accurate assessment of what is required,  and by NOT using my uncalibrated eyeball I worked out I need a 25° silicone bend from the TB ro the MAF, but, my choice was either a 30° or a 23° (23° is a weird spec), so I grabbed the 23° one from Raceworks I also grabbed 1mtr of 3" straight from Just Jap, I needed 350mm, but they only had 300mm, or 1mtr lengths....meh Also ordered a 1/2" hose bulkhead fitting from fleabay, this has a smoothish mushroom looking head (they are designed for below the water line of boats) that will fit inside the bend, the hose bit and threaded bit looks to long, but nothing that a hacksaw cannot fix if required, the hose will then just get jamed on the threaded bit up to the retaining nut Fingers crossed and the unsightly amount of hose clamps will be reduced down to 4 once all the parts arrive

      Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.

      I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.

      No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.

      Can you mount the ATTESA pump in other locations?

      Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!
