3rd. The Dyno operator did the run in 3rd for a reason unknown to me...

I mean I'm not overly experienced with dyno's as we don't use them but I was under the impression dyno runs were meant to be performed in a 1:1 gear ratio... hence 5th in an R34 GTR

i was hoping to see some good lookin girls when i walked into autosalon but the first thing i saw was tosh's head! hahahahahaa. j/k - was good to bump into ya mate!

i liked it. few new things i've never seen before ie. lan games, 3on3 bball, beach volleyball etc. was good.

calibre of cars were good also. nice to see some hyper honda's there with k20 and b18 engine conversions.

bel garage was impressive ....... evo 9 circuit battle car is awesome - well done guys.

lots of bnr34's around which is what i like to see - is it me or are they everywhere now? :) was crossing the road going home the other night and a nice white one, lowered, stock looking went straight by me - crazy.

eh? it was a public show wasn't it? jeebuz.

Funny enough it was exactly as NISMO quoted in their specs on the car, 500ps, what we expected.

What you need to remember is the Z-tune was not built for an outright power figure & still meets all emissions requirements.

We only put it on the dyno at the owners request to get a before & after reading.

The torque figure was what we were interested in & that was pretty impressive.

There were some very high power figures produced throughout the day, congrats to the owners.

Was great to see everybody that came to say hello & thanks to everyone for their help at the end of the day.

Couldn't have done it without you.

My head is still thumping BOOM, BOOM, BOOM.

Cheers

321awkw, 430.5awhp, 1068.1Nm

damn that is nice. 320awkw is a very good figure. possibly even a little bit over the 500ps quoted. :dry: nice shaped curve too.

as for the run being in 3rd. the goal is to get as close to a 1:1 ratio as possible (which in a 34 is 5th gear). BUT most dynos in aus are rated only to 200kp/h so the primary concern is picking a gear that will not exceed 200kp/h, secondary concern is picking a gear at 1:1 ratio. The operator may not have been familiar with the 34 gearbox or diff ratios and probably didn't want to have to abort a run due to poor gear choice. I dont know whether or not it makes much (any?) difference. it's no big deal anyway.

nice to see you guys had the car there anyway. :)

      One Headlight isn't working - Driver Side Fuse Keeps blowing

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      That's a short. Find the short. It will be somewhere between that fuse and the headlight. Start by removing the plugs from the back of the headlight and dimmer switches, and measure resistance to earth. Supply side (power from the fuse) should have none. The other side should have resistance compatible with whatever globe(s) is there (which is relatively easy to say for a normal globe, perhaps not as easy to say for LEDs). Anyway, if you have very low resistance, you defo have a short. Then you just have to run the wiring like you're running the bowel of a dog (on the operating table) that has swallowed something it wasn't supposed to.

      One Headlight isn't working - Driver Side Fuse Keeps blowing

      By kevboost7 · Posted

      Hey guys, need help figuring out why my driver side (RH) fuse 15amp keeps blowing. The Driver Sides Headlamp is out, i replaced these a long time ago with LED ones that were working for 1-2 years. Now, the driver side light is out and i traced it back to a broken fuse. I replaced the 15 amp fuse in the engine bay and as soon as i flip the headlight on, it blows the new fuse. Any idea what's going on?

      I found the same with Subaru’s.  I own and love the SG9 Forester, after that model 2008+, Subaru threw the ugly stick at all their line up and somehow managed to make them look worse with every succeeding year.  lol

      It's something we all have to consider as time marches on. Also consider lifted rally MX5 conversion at that point.

      I should be fine for a few more years, whilst I do have arthritis I also exercise and do mobility training every day to keep as fit and healthy as I can, military life, which is the actual cause of most of my joint issues, has set daily regimes, which I weirdly enjoy I also train alot smarter now, not really focusing on lots strength or puffy muscles, I'm more focused on maintaining what I have for my future older self, I actually train as much mobility now as I do exercising Check out this "simple" drill I have been doing daily prior to training now for a while now, this has worked wonders in my all round mobility
