Lithium

Thanks, but I'm well aware that you've previously posted those results, not really any need for name calling, most of us are adults here

You are the one that name called, and I wasn't saying that was the differences so much as saying you could safely expect at least that much...

My post generally stated disbelief at the disparity between roller and hub dynos. 70KW is substantial figure in anyone's language, hence "Nigga please"

My comments weren't aimed at anyone in particular, just a general statement but when simonR32 decided to call me a dickhead, as if I had not read the thread and seen the results posted about, which I clearly had considering they were literally 2 posts above mine, what do you expect me to say ?

I wasn't commenting on what you said at all Lithium but rather generally about SimonR32's post.

as for the dig about dyno figures in perth, the fact that I seem to have touched a nerve speaks volumes, do a forum search and see what comes up, obviously I'm not the only one to make this sort of comment. (Queue 900 people from perth having a sook/teary about this and that dyno being the worlds most accurate"

In the end it comes down to the fact that when I see something I think is a bit odd, I'm going to call it straight up.

This isn't netball, like I said we are all big boys and manners cost nothing, so what's the problem.

I didn't call you a dickhead. I commented that you made yourself look like a dickhead which I think is unusual for you (after reading posts you have made in the past). If I wanted to call you a dickhead I would have, I didn't and I chose my words wisely, so please read it in context.

It must be the air in wa that makes the dynos read high because they are the same dynos with the same calibration and corrections :-)

It's ok though, my shitty 480rwhp seems to keep a few 700rwhp Eastern states GTR's honest :-p

70kw is a bit much for me I think but between two dynos even with the same corrections anything is possible.

I probably bit a little bit hard over nothing so I'm just willing to chalk this up to miss-communication

and no chance mate, we build our tracks downhill over here :rofl:

I don't really have anything else to add so here is a sweet Miami Vice picture.

On a plus note.....

My 8374 TS IWG should be shipped this month, So early next month it should be in my hot little hands!! WOOHOO can't wait!!:worship::cheers:

I am getting a Manifold made here for it, So there will be a little wait for that.....I would have loved a Full-Race one, They are a work of art....But it starts to add up getting one from the other side of the world.

dont know if anyone can confirm this.

But i have been told by a large Aus supplier that BW may be dropping the whole EFR range due to 'internal problems" in that side of the business.

apparently they have spent so much money on R&D , marketing etc and has cost BW lots of money. and the big bosses at BW may scap the whole thing.

i know i ordered a turbo in march this year went back to supplier yesterday and they still cant tell me when one is arriving,

    • People still have Skylines? I thought they're non-existent now. 
    • Harness update time have had great fun and learnt so much already so far with this project. I started off making both the ignition and injector sub harnesses in the hope any mistakes i made here aren't as hard to undo and learn from as the main harness.  A cool comparison of the old harness using presumably TXL wire and the new which is using Tezel. Also opted to use DTM plugs to keep the whole setup as neat and tidy as possible and tucked the wiring under the coil bracket to try and keep it all from sticking out too much. Although the injector harness, I'm not overly happy with as I'm still using the rubber boots that are supplied with the type of plugs it just looks ugly and sticks out like a sore thumb with the white identifiers so a slight redesign may be done.   Then it was main harness time and most importantly trying to route it nice and away from the heat it will use the OEM heater hose routing which is no longer present to keep the harness up high and secure. it's amazing how much smaller this harness is able to be compared to the old one. plugged everything into the emtron and with the help of the tuner again attempted to start it up and instantly fired up and running smoothly on all 6 which was a big shock to myself. So still some routing and adjusting to be done for the final fit up and installing a knock sensor harness plug which is in the post all has gone surprisingly well.     The old harness for shits and giggles.
    • They do that at random every now and then, with almost no detectable cause. Mine has done it a couple of times (over 25 years!!). Never worked out why.
    • I don't post on here and have been lurking for some time now. Many of the topics have helped me out more times than i can count. I was racing yesterday (11/9) and blew a front right CV shaft. I have spares so I popped a new one in. A thread i read previously said to check the engine mounts if you blow a front CV. Upon inspection, the front right mount was completely separated from the upper plate. This discovery saved me time and money, because i would have blown another CV if i went back out. Just wanted to thank you guys and wish everyone luck with with their builds. (Now if we could only come up with a solution for my power steering belt flying off after hitting the rev limiter, lol)
    • Either way he still need those style of spacer to go into the manifold because the photo he currently has is not going to work
