Dyno Day

[k_d]

Righto, instead of cluttering up the old thread, ill make a new one.

Who would be interested in having another dyno day similair to the Skyline Vs Poopra day held nearly 2 years ago? I will chat to Kat seeing Richard kindly dobbed her in and see if she is willing to help organise it as she did a great job of the last one

Ill start a rough list of interest. I guess mainly skylines to start with and see how we go from there.

So to start with:

1 K_D

2 Sinista32 (your keen Richard, i know you are)

3 Manuel Kasko

4 Shuyin

5 Not a Pulsar

6 YLD-180 ACT

if my car has finished the run in stage id be down to see what it can do

[Got a Pulsar]

Just for fun maybe I would as I am curious.

10psi actuator, ARC smic and 044 pump is about all I've got to offer.

Wouldn't expect too much but for gits and shiggles, it could be cool.

[Yld-180Act]

I'm a bit nervous about these cause I went to the last one with my supra and it was written off less than a week later...that being said wouldn't mind seeing what my new r31 has got even though I know it won't be much haha

[k_d]

funny that. i broke my gearbox xmember mount on the way home and crashed my old 32 the week after that

[GTRKat]

I'd be keen to lend a hand organising again.

Would also be up for a run on the rollers.

Although suggest scrap the whole skyline vs poopra thing and just open up to anyone who wants to enter. Last time when it came down to it I had a lot more different cars entered other than Skylines.

And let's be honest there are some monster supras in Canberra.

Would be good just to let everyone see what they have.

Maybe do it at a workshop that doesn't say lower brand things are worth nothing and to throw them in the bin and buy his haltech?

[GTRKat]

All workshops are as bad as each other and come with good and bad stories.

ESP is a good place to hold the dyno day and we've had some really good days there in the past.

I know I know I'm just a cynical prick

Dyno day is way different.

You bring what you have and be happy with what you get on your print out.

ESP have no issues with Nistuned vehicles on there Dyno. Every ECU named to man will be there on the day.

They just dont sell or tune them - thats there choice.

If the tuner doesn't like Nistune then they dont tune it and they miss out on our business.

Simple as that and I'm sure ESP is ok with that.

There is many a thread of people ragging on Haltech and how they beleive it is full of bugs and how Vipec or LinkG4 is better.

At one time everyone one was on how great WOLF3D was. Then a few years later how shit it is. WA had a big following and all the other states thought it was just another ECU.

We even got people buying new Power FC's - WTF ? but it does the job.

Autronic's getting a beating for the last few years too.

I ran a Motec in my R32 GTS-t, not many new what they were doing with that locally

Seriously - choose your tuner and let them choose your ECU or choose your ECU and find a Tuner happy to tune it.

Spose what I am saying is that if the Tuner doesn't like it, doesnt have the knowledge or software, or jsut beleives it is not good then we deal with it and go somewhere where the tuner does want to tune it.

Yes I agree it is pretty ruff and not good business to tell some one their ECU should be thrown in the bin. Nistunes do an awesome job.

However every tuner has a prefrence to work with and will promote it. It's what they know and trust that matters.

I'm sure you will find all the shops like a few and dont do them all

[Sinista32]

I know I know I'm just a cynical prick

lol - so I have a big rant and you drop a one liner while I'm madly typing away.

Cynical prick

[Manuel Kasko]

Hahaha! Nice rant

I give it 10/10

I selected my tuner and asked what he thought would work.

Keen for a dyno day to see what i get compared to other cars on that exact day.

Will make for interesting comparison to see something stock vs things with a few mods.

[Sinista32]

When cars are in the booth it makes a great picture/video too

would be good to do the behind scenes vid

[k_d]

thats why esp is good for these days as you can see the cars on there quite easily. maybe Daniel could do another vid like the calender day if you ask nicely.

[Sinista32]

Daniel - bloody do it Mate

........................Please/Thank you

[Anfanee]

Kyle do you know Adrian and Christian well enough to ask them? Im going in on wednesday so i could have a chat to see if they would be interested at holding one?

[Manuel Kasko]

I'll make another video this time as well.

Should have a few more gadgets such as a tripod etc by the time this comes around.

Got footage yesterday grabbing a ray shark by the tail and holding onto it down the coast haha

Went snorkeling and spotted it while playing with the gopro
