........... look at Nick just standing there, doing fcuk all :bahaha: :bahaha: :bahaha:

Hello everybody,

Firstly thanks to Nick and others that organised the day - I have never been to a Dyno Day before, but this one seemed to run quite efficiently, bar the small "incident" on the barby :D

It was nice to put some faces to names on the forums, everybody was friendly and approachable - it was great to have a chat to a few of the guys, and check out a lot of different cars!

The day was quite an eye opener for myself personally, as I found out a lot about my own car that I didnt know about (in particular its craphouse tune that was stopping it from making the power it should have). For those that wern't there, it made 303.7kw at all 4.

Congrats to Buster for breaking the dyno on the day, although a certain Midnight Purple R33 GTR also did quite well to pull 600kw at all 4....;)

....Apparently it was"stock".

I also took a number of videos of some cars on the dyno completing all their power runs (BU5TER, SNG, CNG, ZEU5, and Merli's 600Kw run!).

If somebody lets me know whats the easiest way of sharing these, (it will be ages before I can get around to hosting them)I'm happy to provide them (providing its OK by the owners of the respective vehicles). I took a few photos of various cars too.

Anyhow, again, I'd like to say thanks for organising, had a great time, and looking forward to the next one. (Hopefully my car will be sorted by then!)

Cheers,

Chris.

    • Small update, it's been slow moving over the Christmas period with money having to go everywhere thats not my car 😅. I got myself a little present to myself from "santa" in the form of some tidy radiator mounts from fitmint automotive to get rid of the stock ones that look like they have been in an accident before and then straightened by a caveman. I know I should've replaced the rubber bush at the same time but I had no idea how bad they were until I was replacing the mounts. Decided to order their dash mat while I was at it as I feel like I am lucky enough to have a pretty decent condition dash and I don't want to risk it being ruined while it's parked in the aussie sun while I'm at work. I have found another electrical fault to add to the evergrowing list to eventually chase down. Every time I replace my taillight globe it blows within a day of use, I'm starting to think my life would be easier if I took a few minutes to learn how to use  a multimeter 😂.   Had some luck with finding a series 2 drivers headlight on marketplace to replace my mismatched series 1 headlight, a subtle difference but it's nice to have a matching set of lights now.   I returned to the air con problem due to being sick of this summer heat, found a good condition condenser to replace my leaking one! I got it in the car and was happy when I got the thumbs up that the system was now holding gas. Sadly the compressor is not kicking in for some reason, we even tried branching the relay in the fuse box. I have tried to do some research on the issue with no clear understanding of what the fix is, so for now it will be placed on the backburner until I can be bothered to look into the wiring to the compressor. The last small mods I have done was cutting the horizontal vents out of the front bar, not really in a functional airflow sense but I just think it looks better as I am not a fan of the series 2 bar. I also switched the shift knob out for a hosoboyo aluminium grex style one, it has a really nice more direct driving feel than the outdated rubbery oem one. Thirdly, I chucked on one of the ebay bonnet strut kits. The fitment is decent and they seem to work fairly well. They have only given out once while the car was parked facing downhill, I think if I was working under the bonnet I would still put the oem hood stay up to be precautionary as to avoid getting a speedy concussion.
    • Got pneumonia, haven’t played with her in a while, but I’m back now. Previous owners cut bonnet pins into the bonnet. My choice try find a replacement or spend $15 get some pins myself to cover up. Now only one small hole to cover. looks shit now, but when the bonnet is red again. Be good 🤞
    • No R32 GTSt had 15" wheels. 205/55-16 was standard GTSt fare. 4.36:1 is standard R32 turbo auto diff. I think the manual was too, not 4.11. 4.11 and 4.08 were R33 namual and auto respectively.
    • Well found out it’s a 60th anniversary gtst from that it came with 205-55r15
