Unless people want to organise it themselves or have better ideas perhaps keep the crap talk to a minimum in this thread? We always lose all the detail amongst so much crap in this section.

Honestly, who gives a f**k who likes what ECU or what the workshops in question recommend. It's a 5 minute run on the rollers so that you and others can see what your car is doing.

As a workshop I don't even use ESP but they're good guys, it's always a good day and they do whatever they can to accommodate us and even donate prizes usually.

You make me laugh Richtard :D

Go with ESP Kat, you've organised a successful day there before and they always put on a good day and are extremely accommodating.

These "event" days aren't to hang shit on different cars/parts/workshops/tuners, enough of that goes on as it is. It's a day to put all that crap aside and have fun as car enthusiasts.

Edit: and to also laugh at Richtard cause his car is ghey :P

Thats if he can actually make it out of tuggers without leaking coolant.

Most of us know what our cars are going to do on the dyno. Point of the day is to get together and to watch tough cars scream their tits off and get some good pics and footage :)

And the fact most of us have had them on different synod across ACT and NSW so will be good to get solid results from the same dyno

Dependant on date I'm interested. Good to see the difference from Jakes to another dyno.

Don't forget Ultimate tunes have a huge TV for dyno runs (or did), so that's another option. Also one day Trojan might have their 4wd dyno running.

im not holding my breath for john to set his up lol. its been covered in dust for the last 2 years min, although i think he was refurbing over the break so that might change. They do have a big tv, as do esp now im pretty sure. Going off the last few days that Kat has organised, ESP was the preferred location, so we will head there :)

    • Yep, that was one of the things we learned fast in the past with our MX5. When you drive with the top down, you are effectively standing out in the sun, 100% of the time, and not getting in any shade (because roads aren't shaded generally!). Just like standing out in the middle of a field on a sunny 27C day is a bit of a bad plan, so is sitting in a MX5 without sun protection.
    • I also just ordered some Frankenstein bolts and side mounts to fit a hard top Just in case I do find one, basically so it doesn't need to be fixed to the car with only the front latch.......and then gaffa tape to keep it in place for the RTN journey from wherever I get it
    • If your temps are fine now, you probably won't have any issues with where your vents are as they don't look right up at the windscreens high pressure area, so any differences when giving it the beans for extended happy laps would be minimal, but, they should vent heaps when stuck in traffic  Much like how that reverse cowl on my SS let "visible" heat out when stationary, but, because it was basically at the windscreen my coolant temps on the Hwy actually raised because air was being fed into it at speed (110kph), to only come back down to around 90° when I got off the Hwy And your 100% correct about the NC currently not needing vents, but, if I was to add a turbo, and a oil cooler and intercooler in front of the condenserand radiator, and then take it to the track???? It is apparently a recommend requirement if I don't want to worry about coolant or oil temp issues, but, any of the above are possible scenarios, over time As it sits now, with the triple pass radiator and stock air conditioning system, I have absolutely no issues with either temps or air conditioning efficiency, I've been basically daily driving thie car for the last month, both on the Hwy, and peak hour, bumper to bumper traffic, but, that's pretty much expected from basically a standard engine  Talking about no issues daily driving, it was 39° the other day and I was sitting in bumper to bumper traffic on the M5 and then M7, with the top down, and with the air conditioning blowing nice cold air on my feet, balls, and face, well, there was one issue, my head and arms got pretty sun burnt Note to self: leave a hat and sunscreen in the car for such days 🤣
    • I would agree, unless you need something specific to the HV motor/battery side repaired or investigated, any mechanic will be able to perform normal services, but if you prefer, maybe look for a mechanic who regularly services/repairs Nissans, the VQ engines are pretty common in the Nissan lineup.  Sorry, I can't make any suggestions, I don't live in Vic.
    • Some of them keep working fine. 9 out of 10 of them end up causing an absolute misery bleeding the system and get thrown on the workshop floor in a tantrum and never thought about again because they were never really needed and just added crap to the car that we could have done without. Same-same with HICAS, A-LSD, and various other stupidities that over eager 10x engineers thought we had to have.
