451awkw won the Auto Salon dyno??? :D

6 cyl AWD...720kw won Power Champion (Mr HDT blown VK)

Not a bad result though for Dave's genuine daily commuter vehicle.

(not too many cars get driven to and from work every day 40mins each way with that sort of mumbo)

Its the 2nd car in the pics. Its our time attack car we ran at Superlap.

I tuned the car in about an hour on friday night and settled for a boost, timing and fuel level that the engine was the happiest at. The injector size limited the level of boost i could wind into it (700cc's)

both cars pictured both sported built engines with HKS T04Z's except the blue one has a shot of NOS

needless to say we had it more than covered.

Yes Richard the car is nuts on the road with massive power and excellent throttle response. I was a very nervous passenger on the trip from the dyno to Autosalon.

Was it a pump fuel or race fuel tune dg?

Sunoco...it made 420awkw at 22psi on BP98...we put the Sunoco in and it went backwards to 390 odd kw. Then i adjusted the timing and leaned it off (Sunoco is a slow burning fuel and likes it lean with lots of timing) and power started to climb again. Then once the correct plugs were fitted it really started to make the power it should have. Then a couple more psi of boost until we saw 450kw (600hp) at the treads.

A more experienced tuner may have gotten more power but considering my limited experience it was as far as i was confident of pushing it without hurting it.

did you end up hireing turbotechnics's dyno mate?

nah we didn't have it ready to run until after 6 friday night due to us wasting too much time trying to get mine finished... so we took it down to Chris Bale's at Toronto. Chris offered to stay open as long as we needed which was great of him but we only needed an hour.

Thanks again for your help.

    • Do Alan and Keith work on Skylines now? I remember buying stuff from them when I owned my Ralliart Lancer a few moons ago. Definitely genuine guys and be excellent if they dealt with the skyline platform as well.
    • Hey all, I'm Gaston from Sydney's West.  I was a member on here when I was a younger lad and owned a mint R33 GTS-T. Ended up selling it and getting married having kids (yadda yadda) we all know how the story goes. Now I'm back with the intention to get my midlife crisis (dream) car ... a R35 GTR.  You'll see me about asking questions and searching the forums. Good to be back and can't wait to get back an Import again.
    • I have to put something here in order to post the photos. From what I could gather there's more enthusiasm for modified cars now than there has been for years. There were probably more younger people there than older (me included lol) which was a good sign.  It did seem like the record least amount of representation of the 90's era hero cars on display though. Like maybe one or two examples of S-chassis Nissans, and maybe 3 or 4 R-chassis. By comparison there were a lot of Civics from that era but in all there were about 10 - 12 EG/EK Civic Type R.  Euro exotics are always there in large numbers, led by Liberty Walk...... say what you will about kids using markers to scribble on a Ferrari F40, it did seem like a stunt to infuriate Ferrari enthusiasts, or Ferrari itself. I wonder if there's something more to it. Either way LBWK have done some heinous things to a Lamborghini Miura this time. They should stop now.
    • Engines and drivelines are not war stoppers for me mate, busted arse bodies and un-obtainium parts and panels are though Both cheap Brumbies I looked at had trashed tubs and a fair bit of rust
    • Stock O2 sensors are narrowband. They're useless once you're away from stoich. IE, useless for what you're trying to do. 10:1 will read the same as 14:1 from the stock O2 sensors. That is, they'll read rich. The same level of rich.
