Hi there people.

I'm new to this forum, and new to skyline ownership, having bought mine less than a month ago.

Anyway, I was wondering what happened to the main theme of this thread - I'd be really interested in a dyno run, just to get an idea of where my car is at. $50 or whatever sounds fair. Has there been any dates discussed?

Anyway, great to find such an active forum, and some good ppl. I'm looking forward to meeting some of you guys if/when this idea gets off the ground.

take it easy,

Simon.

This whole idea seems to have died so I have got in contact with the guys who helped me with mine last time and they are keen to have another dyno day. Price will still be $50 and it will be in September. More details on Wednesday as I am having a meeting tomorrow afternoon with them.

No probs mate they don't mind, in fact they do a lot of 4wd's when they fit UNICHIP etc. It will be at Cramer Dyno & Performance in Toowoomba. There are pics on my site in the Diary section.

I wouldn't count on Sub Zero turning up, they said last time they were bringing 6 cars and they didn't even turn up at all????

Boxcar Racer....Dream on matey, I am the king of exhaust noise:lol:

Toowoomba sounds good - it's always an entertaining drive up the range :)

In terms of dates, I can do just about anything except the last two weekends of August. (24/25th) or (31 aug / 1 sept) are out for me. Other than that, I can do any time at all.

I'd be interested for sure.

I've gotta get my clutch sorted first! I'm currently getting ****loads of slippage in any gear I try, so that's really messing with my attempts at getting it properly tuned at the moment. Hopefully sort that out this week...

    • Before I commit to it as I already have the wastegate off the car, would you change it to the 9psi spring instead of the 12, or whack it back on now and try your suggestion?
    • Sounds good Hmm suppose the main thing is, how much do you care about this car? The filler doesn't make for a very good water barrier lol. If there was a tiny little bit of rust forming now, that in 3 to 5 years time becomes obvious under the paint (starts to bubble up), would it bother you? 
    • I already have the ability to datalog the voltage... what I can't do is correlate it to what the gauge is showing when I'm looking at the data at a later date. Or something like this. Except getting the oil to 125C+ involves me going 200+kmh at the track so you can imagine this is a little tricky unless I do something like note what the voltage is when I am at the top of 5th gear so I have a point to reference on. Drove car today. O2 still reading richer because hopefully not a leak instead of massive restriction I've introduced. Car really doesn't sound like a LS. It's quite strange. Pulled a bit of fuel out up top. This does potentially explain why my spark plugs looked like the car was running pretty over-rich. If I was tuning it to a ~12.7 which in reality was far richer than that in the past. It will be handy to have the dyno WB to compare my WB to to compare notes that's for sure. At this point I'm happy to just sit in the passenger seat and tune the thing given I've got about 7 million hours on the platform lol.
    • Yeah I understand you have to pay for an updated map or subscription service or something. But I can't even find a current map for Australia. My map is dated 2017, but didn't this car version still sell in Australia until 2021?   Also, just as an aside, the navigation system warns you of traffic incidences ahead.....why would they include that on a map they knew is not receiving live information. I am forever going to be warned of an incident that probably existed for 30 minutes 8 years ago.
