Dyno Day - 28th August 2004

[owned]

well for those of us with an RB25DET, i managed to make the least power on a stupidley rich engine.... please feel free to look at my chart to see.... a poor 129.6kW at the rear.... stock but nonetheless poor.... or am i expecting too much :S

[Squizz]

That's only 15kw less than Glenn's GTR mate.

I think the pair of you should be having a bit of a look for things not quite right...

[unwritten law]

I got my exhaust done at mercury on friday. Made 135.1kw atw before the exhaust, and 140.4kw atw after....

[LBR33]

I got 172.4rwkw's with bleed valve, zorst and pod. (its auto too)

Thanks to all the guys at Mercury Motorsports for managing to fit me in at the last moment.

[summoner]

managed a wheel spinning 261rwkw with 2 people in the back 1 sitting in boot and 3 straps, 1 of which gave way and I now have as a souvanier(sp?)

couldnt get a final figure as it would break traction, dissapointed as i was hoping for a proper figure so will be going back with differant tyres on the rear(they think mite be the soft compound causing problems).

Thanks to the guys at mercury and SAU-QLD for the event.

Anyone get a video of the cappacino and its roller-smoking 37.7kw run?

Coolest thing ever watching that poor guy hop in the worlds smallest novelty car and try and be serious and professional

another dismal performance by my car. it didnt make it past 1.00 bar either which coupled with everything else makes me just wanna get rid of the stupid thing. only slightly more power than erins car. yay

[predator]

couldn't make it.. but looked like a good day..

been spending too much lately on bits for my cars rather than actually doing anything with them... will have some interesting things to throw on the dyno in a couple of months

thats a shame they couldnt strap it down properly.... maybe they need a dyno refresher course....ha ha....

good power results thou..

good results guys....sorry i missed the day....

Was good fun! Im suprised how well mine did, considering I got the extra weight and all!

** disclaimer, I understand that weight has no effect on a power run, its my weak attempt at being funny...

[NismoGirl]

Thanks to everyone who turned up and to the extras that did to fill the spots of the ones who didn't bother.

Some good consistant results from a few cars and some suprises from others.

I think the top figure on the day was Richard Hull with 312.8rwkw (don' t have my sheet with me at this point in time). Lowest of course being the cappucino with 37.7rwkw.

Thanks to everyone for hanging around and being so patient with the swapping and changing of the schedule of cars for the day. With people having to be gone by certain times and others having to drive back to towoomba, I'm sure it was frustrating, but thanks for sitting it out.

Also, thanks to Cameron, Trent and the boys at Mercury Motorsports for running the dyno (they didn't finish till 8pm!), putting on the free food for all who attended and going that extra mile with things that other dyno places wouldn't normally do.

All in all, it was a great day and thanks to everyone who made it

[MELV]

Thanks to Erin and Andrew for making the dyno day happen, and the lift back down to the coast too !!!

It was a good day/night. It had everything COPS/CRAZY PLANES IN THE SKY/RAIN/SUN/BIG POWER NUMBERS/LOW POWERNUMBERS/2 CARS UNABLE TO RUN ON THE DYNO

If anyone has any video of my car on the dyno can u please please PM me.

good results guys....sorry i missed the day....

dunno about that they strapped down the 33 4 door fine and that made 311rwkw.. I'll be going on again thursday night hopefully and get a final figure, my goal is to beat that figure of 311rwkw set by said 33..

I'll push more than 1 bar if need be hehe, will keep updated

I feel bad that i broke their strap
