funkymonkey Posted April 5, 2004 Share Posted April 5, 2004 Congrats to Dave for your blistering 617rwkw run... which he followed up the next day with a 593awkw run. He took out the Tough as nails, outright power and AWD dyno trophies at Melbourne Autosalon this year. The dyno runs were pretty consistent, with most cars getting around what they've recorded on other dyno's. Also of special note, the Osman's $300,000 yellow bathtub recorded a mind boggling 102awkw. Now all we need is a scan of Leewah's Dyno sheet printout. More details and discussion in the VIC section.

tomj Posted April 5, 2004 Share Posted April 5, 2004 With GTR's the difference isnt that great between rwd and 4wd. An awesome run Dave, well up on Ants aka ND4SPD's 508kw over here in Perth. Seems like he has some chasing to do Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/37830-dave-aka-leewah-record-highest-dyno-figure-ever-in-autosalon-history/#findComment-761384 Share on other sites More sharing options...
funkymonkey Posted April 5, 2004 Author Share Posted April 5, 2004 617 at rears (hence rwkw) and 593 at all fours (hence awkw), think they removed the driveshaft on the front or something to cut off power to the front wheels. He also has a torque splitter which could have helped.

Leewah Posted April 5, 2004 Share Posted April 5, 2004 Thanks for your comments peoples. It was a long road to getting stupid numbers out of the car without it blowing itself to kingdom come. I haven't scanned the dyno sheet yet but will when I get some time quiet time at home. Should have it up soon. We'll go racing soon, prob early May once we make sure the car and engine can sustain these power levels for a few runs.
