Why Dyno Dynamics didn't jump all over the Autosalon concept and try to own it from the outset is beyond me. They market their arse off at every other show but not Autosalon.....has me furked.

I didn't make it this year. Had my first weekend off in about 4 months when I wasn't doing something car related. Lots of cricket and lots of couch. Awesome effort by the RH9 car. More gas? New turbos? Both? Does anyone know what changed between now and a few months ago?

Cheers

I'm surprised that we as a club don't have a stand like they do in Vic?

I was very disappointed with the event, way too many show cars and too much spent on stands than the actual cars themselves. Cars with LCD screens on both the front AND back of headrests is a little over the top!!

Can we please make braided hose line covers illegal? arghhh

This should have had a run on the dyno...probably would have made 1500+ on the Autoshowoff dyno :)

This was a awsome car I would love to own it but i dont have any spare Kiddneys to sell :):(

Anyway I loved the event I like the displays and if I get of my arse next year I will do it with a display as I have done back in adelaide .

To all those who put down or dislike car owners who have bling bits on cars :laugh:

Good on them that is what THEY LIKE and that is the main thing that is why they go to these events to show them off and be proud of it there is a good mix of cars there from high power GTR's with BLING too just BLING and nothing else .

I my slef like a bit of both but i like all over all .

At the end of the day it is about girls cars music and girls and also girls so if you hate it :P:(

its fun to see what they think up next.......the RX7 with tv screens as headlights was really fun to see...as well as lcd screens on the front bumpper and lcd tv screen on the number placee area.....bling is fun to see as well

for anyone who went and noticed the dudes with little rc cars drifting around a track, a member made a little vid compilation of the weekend. im a member and its pretty fun wacking on some pvc or abs piping onto a rc car and getting it sideways. its like if something breaks, it wont mean pulling the motor out, even if it does its only an electric one!

heres the vid, just right click and save as... clicky

Plenty did change, I am not at liberty to tell, just keep this in mind, RH9 was running on 20 inch rims, and the car was not taken to its limit....it still has more, as you can see by the pic i was in the area.... :(

    • Just a follow-up on this topic. From what I can tell so far the rusty residue on the engine block might be unrelated to a coolant leak or maybe just older than anticipated. After driving it from the winter garage to my friend's garage I could not see any new traces of coolant leaking there, but I will test this properly once I was able to fully warm up the car and drive it for a bit. I think I can agree that the whole porous engine block stuff is kind of nonsense, but there is just a silly amount of true, false and half-true information on anything Skyline-related on the internet.
    • hrmmm , not mine , easter plans to pull engine not happening     
    • I removed the IACV, cleaned it and reinstalled.  I found a video on youtube that helped with the whole process, the guy then said the idle needed to be set, so the process was to get the vehicle up to operating temperature, unplug the TPS, set the idle screw in the IACV so the RPMs were around 600, then plug the TPS back in.  After I reinstalled the IACV, the car started (because, it was a cold start), once it warmed up, the car died, I adjusted the idle screw to see if that helped anything, it did not, I had to wait about 3-5 minutes, then the car would start back up. Only to shortly cut out, and only crank.  I loosened the TPS to see if adjusting that would do anything, and when I would rotate the sensor clockwise, there was a humming noise, but it would go away when I got the sensor in the horizontal position.  It only made the hum noise with the key on.  What do you guys think? 20250414_172604.mp4
    • Quick update.  The engine grounding strap was replaced, the engine is now happily running.  Tested the voltage drop before replacing the strap, was about 1.2ish volts down between engine to battery, chassis to battery. With the new grounding strap, pretty much no voltage drop at all.
