Not a bad show indeed. Dropped in on Sunday for a couple hours to catch up with old and new faces.

The girls from Kittens were defiantely nice girls and lovely to talk too :D Also the girls from Autobahn put up a good show as usual!

Hung round the dyno cage most of the time and watched a few nice cars get up there. Benny's 180SX made some decent numbers as did a yellow S14 owned by a guy in wheelchair. 300+rwkw and a disabled sticker... GOLD!!

Missed out on watching the RB26 powered GTS-T and Platinum (VL Turb) run again but was still not a bad show.

Congrats to the Cabin crew for running another sucessful AutoSalon!

Pics will go up later when I can be stuffed.

those pics are actuyally better than when i saw the cars on saturday. it was pretty crappy auto salon, to tell u the truth, the blackr33 pumped out pretty low figures, and it was running that much boost 2.2bar i think it was. that engine is built for 650rwkw. oh well. yeh but benny's car was good tho, same with the s14.

Bobbygill - what was so good about the CHASERS car that benny took with him? he used a bigger turbo than last autosalon and gained what - 20kw?

you're wrong about how much boost the black R33 was running, as i'll tell you truthfully it was running 1.8 bar. So, you come on this forum -which thousands of people read - with incorrect information and no idea what it takes to make 500rwkw (let alone 650rwkw) and you put down our work.

how many cars have you been in contact with that have made over 500rwkw without nitrous?

btw - congratulations on your own car... who did the work and tuned it? oh thats right - it was us!

paul, mate, where did all that come from, i was just stating my opinion, i wasnt criticising the car or anything, was actually thinking it was gonna pump out around high 500kw's, but it didnt. but i aint dissing ur work or anyones work, and im glad u correcte dme abouthow much boost it was running, u should take it a lil easy, and not take for granted what everone tells u, u know what i mean dont u

fdor the record on big numbers ive now commentated over 30 dyno comps in every state and every major event...... ive witnessed around 13 cars make over 500rwkW...out of those 6 did it without nitrous

they are:

Damn Supra

Autostyle R32 GTR

ND4SPD GTR

Theo Woolets R32GTR

Autstyle Black R32GTR

and CHasers R33GTS

all of them only just cracked it too except theo Woolet who mnade 608kW with no nitrous

had C16, tad over 2bar...reveed to 10,000 and had alot of deveooplemet work

500kW without nitrous from a 6 cylinder is phenominally huge!!!!

now i know other cars have done it or claimed it etc but im goin off waht ive seen in recognised competition

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
