Pics from one the previous dyno day.... There's a gunmetal grey GTR. Is that anyone from here?

SAU has any regular meetings? I might invite you guys to MR2 cruises. We used to have monthly runs but we have been really busy. Next one is on 19th August. Possibly run to Brindabella hairpins, our favourite road... bit of snack & coffee at the tracking station and head off.

Details will be on our website. http://www.mr2act.org

Btw, just checking out in my website contents again.... recognise these cars? :D

Yep some owners cars in that lot of pictures, though you missed the best looking GTR MINE!!! OK maybe not the best looking.... fine see if I care :laugh:

There is a meeting of a sort on at my place, and Friday nights at the museum there's a small turn out.

And I would be coming to the dyno day if Corydon didn't come up with some lame excuse for not having my car ready this weekend.

Yep that R32 at the dyno day would be me.

Was well worth the price and everyone was really friendly.

They had no problems with others cars rocking up to make up the numbers.

Only problem is that once you get on the dyno you feel compelled to have more power

the next time you get on it. :banana:

      Rb25det Belts Change

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      Everything I found online said never use it because it'll dramatically reduce belt lifespan.  No, but I have seen excessive v-belt tension cause the audible bearing noise from excessive radial load in things like alternators. So don't overdo it. Ideally you set it to manufacturer spec using a proper belt tension guage. I tried the "clicker" type gauges but those cheap things are trash. They read way too low even when you're careful.

      This is kind of where I've ended up for the most part. It's easier for me, easier for shops that don't have to deal with my weird criteria/picky standards, etc.

      Will do. Suprised if it's not the starter motor considering it's 30 years old. Will get a volt meter though. Battery is close to new.   Cheers for your help, always appreciated.

      This almost never happens these days. No. Clean your battery terminals and make sure they are tight. Use sandpaper on a dowel if you have to, to get oxidation off the inside of the terminals, particularly on the -ve. Check the earth cable from battery post to chassis ground and engine ground. Make sure the contact surfaces are clean - including the threads on the bolts that anchor them - because that's where a lot of the contact occurs. Wire wheel on a drill is a good thing for this. Make sure the crimps on those cables are all sound. Assuming none of that causes an improvement: Check the battery voltage after it has been resting for a while. If it's at the lower end of the range, put it on charge for a while, then see if it will crank better.

      I just checked my belt, it wasn't super loose but I could bend it past 90 degrees a small amount so I tightened it up and for the first time ever my car didn't crank first time, had to crank it again lol. Don't know if that was because I tightened the belt or if it's my starter motor going out (been having slow starts for some time). Coulda also been when I was recording I didn't crank the key properly and it didn't save the recording lol.   Is that a thing if you overtighten a belt it struggles to start?
