Well i should be finished on our dyno by then, i will put my hand up and come and meet some of you guys. I am keen to get a print out as i have never had the car on a dyno dynamics dyno. $75 Seems very rich for a a power run, but for once in my life i could pay for use of a dyno.

Thanks for organising it erin.

Nismogirl,

This would be my first dyno run...could you explain how the day goes. Do you get one run and a print out and then watch the other cars? Is it first there first on the dyno? How long does the day go etc etc. Sorry to be a novice

To start the day off, who ever is there at 10am will be placed on the list with members going before others. Then, people who just turn up during the day will be placed in the next available position. This means that while members will be given priority to non members, we wont be allowing members who arrive late to "push in" to the queue - its just not fair on people who made the effort to arrive on time.

When your car is up, you will need to reverse it into the carpark provided and wait for the guys at mercury to reverse it in. Once it's on the dyno (you can sit in the car while it's on the dyno if you wish), your car will be given two or three power runs and the best one printed out on a piece of paper and laminated.

I hope that explains it well enough :)

Guys, I also need definite answers so mercury motorsport know how to charge us appropriately for the booked numbers.

    • This looks great! Awesome to have the 5 speed with an LSD in this. The Recaro's look like SR2's or SR3's. It's a shame they've been retrimmed as they would have looked sweet in their original colours. I think I'd want my agent to be a little more up front and informative too. I've never imported but I reckon it would make me a little nervous, so the more info the better.
    • Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.
    • My dream is also to have a proper hoist, but I don't think it will ever happen. My quickjack is probably as close as I'll ever get, it really is very good though. 
    • Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno
    • Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.
