Hi,

I did a search for dynolicious and couldn't find anything so forgive me if its been mentioned already.

Dynolicious

From the site.

* 0-60 Acceleration

* 1/4 Mile Elapsed Time

* Lateral G's

* Horsepower

If you have an Iphone its a cheap ($15.99) way to see some fairly accurate(?) stats for your car. Just do a search for dynolicious in the app store.

It does not have metric units in it so far, but I think it will be very popular and will get a metric option down the track.

Check out the screenshots page

EDIT: Just playing with the app now, you can put multiple cars into it, you get to put a photo for your car from the camera's photos. You also get to add mods to see before and after results. It has mounting instructions in the app.

The only testing ive been able to do so far is to swing it about to get to to measure g's and things which is making me look like an idiot in the office :blink:

Must work in a simliar way to a g-tech, accuracy will depend on the quality of the accelerometer in the i-phone. And a g-tech is accurate to aboutn 1/10 of a second they say.

Even if it isnt accurate (but it should be ok), it should be consistant, if you get what i mean. So good for comparing before and after. But i dont find the horsepower tool on my g-tech very useful, so i doubt you will on ur iphone.

Very nice little program...you essentially get a basic g-tech for a fraction of the price,

post ur times up

Hrmm, wonder whether GPS or accelerometer would be more accurate.. And if someone could make one for the iPhone that uses both for accuracy haha.

Or if you have a symbian S60 phone you can get that and more by using an ap called race chrono found here --> http://www.racechrono.com/ which is 100% free.

Thanks TiTAN.. hadnt heard of this before..

I have downloaded and installed it with the latest firmware onto my 6110 navigator, and ill let you guys know how it goes once i give it a run..

A 1hz GPS won't be accurate for standing start stuff because it only updates once a second.... a 5hz would be a bit better, a combination of both GPS and accelerometer would be good.

That is gold!! How do you know if your S60 symbian mob has an accelerometer or not, was thinking of getting a samsung G810, not sure if it has one though, would love something like that if it could data map stuff.

Don't worry, just saw it on the list for the 3rd edition... Pays to actually read links

N95 is S60 with acceleromter

ive got one on mine called TEMPES.GTX

its pretty average. i'm sure racechrono works on N95 too, but it has too many options for my liking.

i'm guessing Dynolicious will be ported to S60 before too long.

Dynolicious is pretty cool but only ported to iPhone at the moment as far as I know.

Can't wait to get my car back on Monday to give it a proper go. Tried it out in my friends Golf GTi today and was pretty impressed. I am sure it's not 100% re power readings but still a cool novelty! Nice to play with between hands of Texas Hold-em :)

On another note, thoroughly impressed with the GTi, drove it out to the airport today and it was a good drive. Pretty quick stock out of the box :rolleyes:

    • From what I've seen and experienced first hand with those powder extinguishers, they're good to use to break a window and escape the car, and half the time then do f**k all to stop a fire. You just need much more than 1KG worth of powder. Not to mention, half the time it's an engine bay fire, and you can't easily, and do not want to completely open the bonnet, so you're left pretending to be an American Infantry... Spray and Pray baby!   And then 100% that shit is really destructive afterwards!   Realistically, those little ones at a race track might help you keep the fire from growing and give the fire marshal / truck a chance to actually get to you with their multiple large bottles.   For a road car, these days, prepare to deboard as quickly as humanly possible, and move to safety. Allow insurance to fix replace it (unless it's like a rare classic etc, then do nearly everything possible to save it!) Keep the little extinguisher with you to help protect other things around you from burning while you stand there singing "How can we sleep while our beds are burning?"   Secondly, powder extinguishers I freaking hate for indoor use, (this isn't really relevant to a car) as you will get a powder fog around you, and it can be disorientating.   When I did fire training when at BlueScope Steel, they have (had?) their own fire brigade on site. We did all the training, and at the end we were told, "If it's an indoor fire, and you need to use a powder extinguisher, we as the fire brigade would rather you just exit the building, you're more likely to get lost in the smoke and powder fog than do much help, so just GTFO" And pretty much that was what they said for most other fires too, grab extinguisher, if it's much more than paper in a bin fire, use extinguisher to get you and others out of the building to safety...   Part of me wishes when my Skyline caught alight many moons ago, I let insurance sort it out, instead of putting the fire out... part of me now says "But I've saved a classic before it was a classic!"
    • Hi all,  I have a older model of the Greddy Front facing intake on an RB25DET NEO Head. I've bought aeroflows fuel rail and injector kit (1000cc Bosche injectors) and I'm unsure if the fitment is correct. The injector o-rings fit in the intake hole but it's not snug. I can very easily rotate the injectors even when the fuel rail is mounted. The kit also came with multiple adaptors, they dont make it any more snug and using them raises the injectors up and i cant mount the fuel rail. I hope this makes sense I've asses a few photos.    Thanks so much guys. 
    • So, to run the 4g aerials to the booster, I had to get access to the rear bulkhead....bit of a mission. Hot tip, don't offer to help change the rear shocks for a mate with a v37.... Remove seat base, 2 clips that slide forward to release it the it lifts straight out Fold down rear seat (pull in from boot) The side bolster of the rear seat is not connected to the middle parts that fold. To remove unbolt at the bottom bolt then push it up off the top hook Then there is a plastic surround behind the seat back, 2 pop out clips, 2 bastard clips, some swearing at it is out Pop the rear seat latch surround off Remove door surround lower trim then side trim  Remove c pillar trim - 4 clips, pull inwards not forwards Remove metal brace - 5 bolts 1 nut Then you have got to the rear strut top...what a pain!
    • If you really want squish back, you can have it put on the piston (at least to some extent).
    • Impressive. He's very very smooth.
