Hi,

Recently purchased a 200SX, with some mods done, and wanted to get a dyno run in before i did any more mods to the car. I know it has a SR20DET and not a RB series engine so its cool if I'm not welcome to attend.

Also - just to be extra difficult - I start work at 230pm on the Gold Coast that day... So if its possible to be slotted in before 1pm'ish that would be awesome.

So can I come along?

Side question - cos im a noob and never had a dyno run - do you guys worry about ambient air temps for dyno runs? Like if its a really hot day, you'll only run 14psi instead of 17psi etc.

Yes by all means, this is an open dyno day. All makes and models... More than 90% of the cars on the rollers will be skylines, but your more than welcome to come along. Just read the first post and when your happy give us the nod and your in...

As for running early in the day thats not an issue, we will fit you in before 11am so you have plenty of time to take off when needed...

As for the boost setting, you said your car is slightlly modified. At 17psi I hope you have aftermarket fuel management, injectors, z32 afm and an aftermarket turbo... Cause if your running 17psi on any stock components your gonna blow your engine up within 4000-5000km's...

I always say run the boost your management is setup to handle... I wont be turning mine down thats for sure... :)

also ... how do I upgrade the motor where my avatar should be from an RB20E to an SR20DET? :)

Please in future post these sorta questions in the help area of the forum, not in the middle of a dyno day thread... Thanks

Most ill run is 15psi... I was kinda refering to you big boys with your big toys :) Actually 1/2 the reason for wanting the dyno run is before i do something about the engine management.

Please in future post these sorta questions in the help area ...
:happy: sorry.

So yes put me down and ill internet transfer the money on the 1st or 2nd of the month after I get paid.

Josh has lead a sheltered life...

Geebung/Virginia are no worse for crime that Noosa or the gold coast... The people who live in the area are generally working in the industries based in virginia.

So they are hard working families and yes I would feel comfortable walking through there at night... Its probablly safer than hastings street or cav ave...

No mase required... Just Josh is scared of everything out side Noosa...

You know i'm just playing :happy: I'll give you a hug at the dyno day to make up for my naughty talk of Geebung :)

P.s, speaking of crime, someone broke into my little red swift.... Took the head unit and amp :yes: Damn Noosa and our high crime rate!

OK

Time to ramp up the payments people...

2 weeks till the payments close... I have re-done the list on the first page of the thread, remember your spot is not secured until payment is verified by SMR33... First 40 payments are locked in as a 100% run...

      R32 update from 1990's spec.

      By robbo_rb180 · Posted

      The NZ wiring kit is a 1/3 the price and will be perfectly fine for your application, I've ran one for 6+ years and many others have. Comes as a full plug into factory connector and the settings for a Link. https://www.nzwiring.com/index.php/product/trigger-kit/ Always comes back to the tuners knowledge and experience with a tuning platform. It takes years to become proficient and learning all aspects and capabilities. I've been using Links for 16 years now (rb and sr paltforms) and always learning something new with adding tables, diagnostics and data logging. Stay 98 for the usability and keep it simple so you can enjoy the car more. With experience I'll give you a current example of the industry I am in. They use Motec m190 and only use VE tuning when they have a torque mapping available and would solve the "PARITY" issues that plagues the category all because the muppet doing the tuning doesn't understand the platform or want to learn it and the product seller have no idea on its full capabilities ( I had a good laugh as when firing up an older car that just got completed and they didn't understand the injector scaling or how to change it for different fuel being used)

      High temp brake fluid?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I'm sure there are specific hygrometers for it. But if you can just throw a high enough ranged temp sensor (theromcouple that came with your DMM, for example) into a pot of it on the BBQ, you can see when it boils.

      By MBS206 · Posted

      I have multiple bottles in a shed that gets hot, and I'm in SEQ, so it's humid. Maybe we test their theory... Anyone have a system to accurately measure moisture content in oil?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Yeah, that and throwing away opened, part used, closed back up bottles has got to be bullshit. Brake fluid sits in not-very-well sealed master cylinder reservoirs for literal years and keeps working (albeit we know we should flush it every couple of years - it actually still works). Anything kept in a bottle in the shed with a tightly capped lid has got to be a million times better than what has been in the car for the same length of time.

      Wait, they're claiming UNOPENED fluid has a shelf life of only 18 months?
