LS1/Skyline dyno day - Sat 12Oct' / Cost $35 = 3runs + print out


Recommended Posts

Yes Joel it run 12s with my old shitty motor. Dont forget its set up for Drags and the driveline prob sucks 30 % of my horsepower, If it had a turbo on it it prob have 250-300 rwkw but thats defeats the purpose of my car, considering not many cars can keep up with it off the mark i consider it pretty fast for a normaly aspirated engine. Bear in mind it weights about 2800 pound and that aint very light :[ I like my old school engine if i had an rb20 i wouldnt be happy till it was pushing 600+ hp and thats a bit much for my wallet. Im prob gonna buy a skyline in a year and spend lotsa cash on that, may even sell my Torana and put the proceeds into the skyline engine : Oh and i forgot to mention it was smoking up on the dyno last time i run it so who knows how much it has with traction:]

just as a compare a mate of mine used to have a TD Cortina that had a 250 X Flow motor with a 4 speed, Holly Mild cam and the XF Kidney Shaped Alloy head to increase compression.

That made 135rwkw on a DD Dyno but it also had the carby tuned or what ever they do to make the AF's as close as they can.

That went really really hard for a Cortina and it had heaps of power down low. Click second at low revs punch it and it would snake all over the place with 235's on the rear.

Those motors are a torque motor but.

I can't remember what it ran down the 1/4 but I think it was some where around the mid 14's.

Just comparing.. :burnout:

Then another mate of mine had a TC Cortina with the Pre-XFlow 250 motor that had a 2V Head on it.

Std form those 2V motors Made 170HP at the Flywheel with the standard single barrel carby, that is around 123kw.. Which is up around the Std 5ltr VK Motor for example..

I used to be a Ford man.. :) Then Went Holden with the Nissan 3ltr (VL) had no problems then bought the VS V8 had heaps of Problems sold it and went back to nissan with the Skyline ;)

:burnout: :burnout: :burnout:

That's one thing I love about the R32 GT-R & GTS-4, pull the fuse & instant RWD :)

A mate of mine in NSW ran his GTS-4 @ a dyno day I organised in Sydney 2yrs back, he got the same kw @ all 4 as he did in RWD!

126rwkw / 126awkw. His car only has a few basic mods.

    • This piece is obscenely discontinued. I honestly hate the frameless window design because the rubber gets stressed and the guides as well every time you open and close the door.
    • I wouldn't be concerned at all, other than to suggest having them flow tested when you receive them to confirm they are reasonably similar, and then put the highest to lowest flowing ones in cylinder 6,1,5,2,4,3
    • I’m only posting this cause I thought I had seen a bad review on these somewhere before. Any feedback? Would you guys recommend that if I do buy these I send em to RC to have em checked before installing. Or any other suggestions?   https://www.ebay.com/itm/114009965865?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=JDl-15yLQ8C&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=QTzlFXB1S-S&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY
    • They see me rollin' they hatin'....... Took me most of the day to make the necessary mods to the mounts to make them fit the car.  Fortunately I was able to just use the mounts that came with the rotisserie. The rear ones are really secure, the front I feel i might reinforce a bit more as it doesn't seem like enough attachment to the vehicle. I'm sure it's fine but better to be safe than (extremely...) sorry.  I drilled and tapped thread into additional M12 holes to each car mount where it attaches to the rotisserie as an extra fail-safe. Without them the side to side movement is just restricted by the allen head pinch bolts, nothing actually goes though the beam. Does now! I still need to adjust the rotisserie to get the car centred in terms of centre of gravity. If it's too high or too low relative to the rotational centre line of the car, it will be like a turtle and roll onto its back or as it currently sits, I dont think I'd be able to rotate it as it sits as it needs to lift the whole car up as it rotates. Ain't happening... I'm going to be nervous as hell the first time I go to spin it on its side...
