Well on Saturday I rocked up for the Barnes High Performance dyno day. First of all a big thanks to Barnesy for putting this on. Guys it was totally free. He has a proper dyno dynamics dyno that is calibrated properly plus he really knows what he's doing.

Seeing my car is stock as a rock apart from a custom cat back exhaust and a slightly modified airbox I was pretty stoked when I pulled 151rwkw (will post up graph at work, cost me $25 for the printout). Some other Skylines only got 120-130rwkw which is what I was expecting.

Overall it was a great day, Barnesy had heaps of commentry, tips and suggestions that weren't bullshit - plus he went from 9-5pm. I think they got through close to 100 cars. A big effort and apparently he has one every 6 months.

But the best part was he got our local member for parliment there dynoed his car and put a really good spin on the whole thing. He is pushing for a circuit and skidpan on the coast. He encouraged good behaviour and even the local commodore wankers did the right thing. Hopefully it will mean a motorsport complex in years to come.

Guys on the coast - drop by and have a yarn to him he is honest and knows turbo cars.

Damn :Owned:

Heheheh. I reckon all that yellow space saver rice power gave me at least 20rwkw :)

Actually I did it with my new 17" rims with, wait for it.......................................... Genuine, real, new rubber.

Damn I didn't know what hit me. As soon as I got new tyres I instantly loss 30kw. It's only in the wet that I now make up that power

Speaking of which I should have that video ready soon. Includes space saver action.
