Sau-vic 2008 Membership Renewal And Dyno Day


Mavric

Recommended Posts

I don't see anyone bitching, except maybe Ash :) Intake temps may also have to do with the fact Mav and I are running high mount turbos and I took mine for a 'spirited' drive a few minutes before so the temp was certainly up. My manifold glows red hot under load, it's not coated and only partially heat wrapped.

Speculation aside, Dyno results are just numbers.. don't really care but I can tell you the car has plenty of punch now. There's only slight lag loss compared to the 0.63.. Interesting to see that my car doesn't make as much power with VCT on. I'm still getting used to the open gate. haha

Anyways I don't know about 1:51's but I'll see what I can do, I'll try to keep out of your way Jack :laugh:

Not bitching at all.

I just find it quite poor, that on a dyno day - something thats used to compare results - That the results (for certain cars) aren't accurate due to things being fudged.

Same dyno, same day scenario, comparable results.

Thats the purpose of a dyno day!!!

Its goes against the spirit and fun of the day in my view.

Its nothing to do with high mount manifolds either. Please stop trying to make up excuses.

tsk tsk Ash, I'm not here to make excuses - certainly not to you. If you want to talk shit do it elsewhere thanks.

I don't appreciate your suggestions about results being "fudged".

Are you going to say the same about the 58 degree intake temps of the GTRHKS? (Oh look, it has a high mount as well). That car has nothing to do with RE Customs. In fact it was supposedly tuned by Racing Line. So please stop with the silly accusations.

As Jack says mate its 1:51's at the Island for you and if you are pulling those times me and you are going to be very close :laugh:

Hey just like to say thanks to you all for coming and to SAU crew.

In regards to IT, I knew it was bit too much when Mavric pulled out 300+ kw on the dyno so I told the crew to place around the intake since I knew this would cause a stir.

I know that Matts 34 is ridiculously hot under the bonnet, I honestly think his run wasn't fudged.

Anyhow, I do apologize and next time I wont be using the IT.

Geez Ash... Talk about being bitter that your car isn't running yet! :laugh:

"like sands through the hour glass, so are the days of our lives... "

anyway... does the speed reached at the top of the power curve mean anything?? I noticed mine gets to about 185kph, which seems to be a bit higher than some of the other graphs that have a higher power reading??

I thought I saw Ash's car in the pics from the show n shine? Looked like Ash driving a car black skyline anyway.

Very impressive results regardless when you consider what these cars come with from factory. Each person has their own interests whether it be drags, track or DECA and thats what makes the diversity of the club great. :yes:

    • So.... when I'm finally getting around to having my power steering leak sorted, now it looks like I've got the same issue most A/T Skylines are having. My A/T light will randomly come on and I'm stuck in 3rd gear until I turn the car off and on again. Only 3 weeks ago I did a complete transmission service: Oil flush + new gasket + new filter. This came out of nowhere!! It wasn't like the car was driven hard. I drove about 3 mins down the road to get fuel and boom!!!  Anyway, I have a few questions and hope you fine people can help me out here. All questions are in red. 1. The solenoids: I was looking at the parts catalogue in Amayama and I could only find the Solenoids as an assembly. https://www.amayama.com/en/part/nissan/319404ax05 I read in another thread that Solenoid A = 31940-4AX02 & Solenoid B = 31940-4AX05 but the Amayama product has only the code of B. Is this the right part? Can anyone who has done the Solenoid changes or seen them confirm if this is the complete set of A & B?   2. Gasket and Filter: I'm not going to try change the solenoids myself because it seems difficult to do in a home garage with just 2 jack stands. I plan to take it to a shop and get it changed. I was also going to buy the transmission sump gasket at the same time so I don't reuse the same gasket. Should I just use the existing gasket as it has only been on the car since OCT 19th? (~3 weeks) Should I be buying a brand-new gasket and a filter? Does this job involve taking the filter out?   Thanks in advance to everyone. It's hard to find a video of someone doing a solenoid change on a R34 so any help you can give answering my remaining questions would make me less stressed.
    • Yea - From what I have seen from the video, the car idles like any R34 lol 50PSI of fuel pressure is hardly super abnormal, the regulator is working because the pressure remains static when the throttle gets revved, i.e pressure remains the same when manifold vaccuum changes. Bigger pumps on stock rails always bumped the pressure in the rail without using an aftermarket regulator to change that. Do you know what your IAC is actually doing? Has there been any data showing the stepper motor % etc? There's no way your idle is actually moving around the way the cluster(s) are indicating. You would hear the difference with the engine RPM flying to 3k and 1k in mere seconds. I'd be checking the wiring to the tacho. What the tacho is telling you and what the engine/ecu is telling you are different things. I assume your ECU doesn't display the spike. So whatever is telling the tacho to be at X rpm is doing something weird. When the going gets insane, you're on the wrong path. You've ruled out plenty of things that are working correctly/aren't the issue. Your idle isn't doing what the tacho is indicating. You have two seperate issues, I don't think they are linked, and the idle seems reasonably okay unless it's stalling which.. well, it hasn't. Troubleshoot the stall if it occurs by figuring out what your IAC is doing vs what it is being told to do.
    • So awesome! I love the RB with the exhaust on display.
    • NO HITS PRICE DROP   ENGINE - $8.5k ONO TRANSMISSION - $1.8k ONO  
    • If it has had a code in the recent past, the code should still be there waiting to be read.
