jus got my car (r31 gt passage) back from having a manual trans installed. it doesnt run very well, ie. not revving cleanly, makes a knocking sound when revved cold, this disappears when it warms up...

anyway, wheres a good, cheap dyno tuning place in bris, where i can take the car?

the car has a red top nics rb20det, r32 turbo (t28?) and zorst...

thanx in advance

Does it need a "dyno" tune? I've heard oodles of bad things about tuning a car on the dyno, mainly along the lines of it ends up tuned for WOT in 4th gear? Knowing very little about the subject, I woulda thought that gas analyzer would be better but maybe they use both to do a dyno tune in conjunction with each other?

aha! excellent, i will take myy r31 into them next week, provided i can get the bitch started! i dont know whether i want to bother with dyno tuning as it seems too expensive, but these lads seem as tho they could figure out the problem with my car... its gotten much worse ie:

bacfires like crazy when revved to 3 grand

wont idle at all

its really pissing me off and i've already wasted time money and effort with the local workshop who have no idea what to do. do u guys reckon brissie tuning and turbo could fix my shit? its an r31 passage with the nics redtop rb20det...

thanks for your help

    • Some troubleshooting, connect up a timing light/gun with a proper ignition lead on coil 1. Hold the revs at 4~4500rpm and see if your timing is all over the shop, scattering off its tits. If so, there's a high chance your CAS is fked. But I read you have a Link ECU ready to go in, why not just skip all this and put that in - will make troubleshooting so much easier.  
    • Misfires when the car is fully warm are generally attributed to the coils (and/or the igniter, on cars with a separate igniter). They can stop working properly when they get hot for a number of reasons. Either electric/electronic, or from thermal expansion opening up gaps and allowing HV leakage. Seeing as you have replaced the coils, that could/should rule them out. But I wouldn't always assume so. Were the coils genuine? Or is there a chance you have bought some counterfeit Chinesium shit? Then we're back onto loom connections. They can fail when warm/hot for the same reasons. Inspections, cleaning of contact surfaces, ensuring that terminals are fully inserted, etc etc, are all justified. The same (heat effects) holds true for the other electrics and their connectors. AFM & CAS, primarily. If you try that Chinesium AFM, drive it around on low load until it is properly hot, but do'nt give it more load than you have to, except when you need to see if it will still miss. I'm dead serious about the untrustworthiness of the calibration of those copy AFMs. Injectors are unlikely to get hot unless the fuel is coming back around hot. You could try squirting them with compressed air or freeze spray to cool them back down to see if they are maybe the cause.
    • Alright, all the plugs looks good. Noticed that it starts to get bad when the car is up to temp, that's when things starts to misfire hard. next to do is Injector cleaning and such. Got in touch with a shop to do work on the injectors next Monday also help on diagnosis.

    • Hence why I've only modified my car into a pure daily. Everything has to remain reliable & roadworthy, while providing value and grin factor. It also must not be handcrafted to the extent that the car will be immovable if something breaks because you cannot get or make a replacement to at least limp around with.
