I have used it many times in America RN.

But most are not from Australia.

And most are of guys drivng there cars.

There are not many guys putting ther cars on youtube.

Everytime we do something large it should be on youtube.

In American they have run where you will find 500 to 1K cars from one manufacture.

And we should do the same because Australia is the largest importer of skyline from Japan.

People in the states are youtubing there dyno runs.

Lets show the world our dyno runs.

Dyno videos are quite boring - but ok. What about a youtube video of your car just going vid? :P

I'll do one when it goes on for its full tune, but here is one done while in the "working through bugs" stage... its venting externally as part of an elimination process to find out what the cause for wastegate creep I have been experiencing is. The conclusion is the wastegate hasn't been getting enough flow, as it still creeps and you can hear when the wastegate first opens that its not actually letting much gas by until the turbine actually starts getting a bit of pressure so have had to rework how the wastegate bypasses gas past the turbo. In the mean time it has been road tuned to make sure its running semi-ok and to trace how much creep it gets.

Anyway, clip of a couple of runs on our bit of test road.

Vrooom?

From the recent qld dyno day, courtesy of Col-GTSX:

I have one of my own dyno run that I could upload as well, but honestly, even watching my own cars dyno run is boring. My camera clips most of the sound out to begin with, then youtube just makes it worse. Not being able to hear just how loud these really are (or are not in the case of my car) is just sucky.

unless the cars either yours or someone you know, or the car is making 1000hp, there fairly boring to watch IMO

Even then its boring.

Unless your big power machine starts smoking up its tyres on the dyno, or blows its engine, or some other "wow" beastliness, a 1000hp run looks no different to a 200hp run. Oh look! The rear wheels are spinning on some rollers and its making a lot of noise!

    • It only looks tidy, as most of the stuff that was on the whole back wall, is now in the trailer to go to the tip, or has been shoved in my 2.2x2.4m "Spare parts room", and now I can't get to anything in there Ha ha ha I could definitely do with a bit more space, but I'd just end up with your problems I'm going to enclose the car port beside the garage, and move a lot of stuff into it I think. OR... It will be setup as a fabrication area, and the main garage will have parts storage in it. I'm not sure yet... Need some pictures of that big shed you've got with the bikes and Skyline in
    • No. I think it's gone. 😭 I think you can get body coloured ones on eBay so I think I'll get one of those... Or just hang a red ribbon from the hole and whack a TOW sticker next to it.
    • Can't say I've had a bad experience with one on my car, then again it only gets washed once or twice a year... The wheels on the other hand, get a good spray often due to my shitty dusty pads.
    • @MBS206 thats pretty neat and tidy to me!  I'll get a photo of mine when I'm out there next. It might require multiple photos to understand the scale of the atrocities though... In total I have 4 sheds of varying sizes and layouts. Main shed is 14x8, second shed is 3x8, third shed is 11x2.5, fourth shed is around 6x4.  All are pretty much full.   The main goal of my cleaning tsunami is to make the main shed predominantly car and motorbikes only. Second shed is my metal fab room (2 x bench grinders, drill press, bench belt sander, metal band saw, scrap metal storage and some of my garden tools.  3rd shed is more bigger garden stuff, storage for engine crane, jack stands, concrete grinder, concrete mixer, air compressor lives there, and it now has two 2mx2m pallet racking shelves with itemised boxes holding building stuff, electrical stuff, plumbing stuff, etc, etc.  The 4th shed is Ryobi electric ride on mower, mini boom sprayer, ancient Kubota tractor, more garden stuff!  I have got a lot of shit....  Then there's the pool house (8mx4m) and the pool pump shed (4mx4m).  I built all of the sheds over the 11 years we've been here.  The main shed was a Ranbuild kit, the rest are all custom made to fit the areas available. Building the main shed taught me a LOT as I had no idea about building anything prior to that!  I've still got one more in me. It will be my man cave which I poured the extra concrete for way back when I poured the concrete for the main shed. The idea is the Skyline will be a centre piece of the main cave once (if...) it's finished.  I told my now 14 year old son yesterday that I will 100% drive him to his year 10 formal in 2 years. Still a long way off but at least I now have a date to work towards! 🤣
    • Modern oils are amazing. Add tyres to that as well.
