Rev210...  lol  I almost forgot about that.. we got chewed out by that cop good and proper huh..  well we were doing just a tad over the limit.

I'm thinking the reading is a bit high, as a month or two earlier, same mods except 14 psi, i got 219 at Fuel Inj Services, in Belmont.    who knows..?

Yes, we did get an ear bashing. What was he talking about anyway?

219rwhp sounds about right for the car, you don't need much to go quick in the s13's and thats enough power to run 13s easy in your car.

Guys, its simple really. If you want feel good #'s so you think you have a big HP monster, go to Myaree Dyno, if you want the most accurate # you can really get go to Genie(because u can only turn a 3 ton concrete roller so fast). If you want good basis # that you can compare with pretty much rest of australia(which id a Dyno Dynamic dyno #) then go to PSi or Formaz... and both have a 4wd dyno. Or if you want something special go to Speedworks for the Dynapack dyno(but involves taking rims off and lotsa work etc)

SST Anyone ??

They looked after the Silvia WA guys.

I went to a dyno day at PSI and they boosted my car WITHOUT asking me. They boosted it no less with a t piece tube. Then to add insult to injury left the t-piece on my car WITHOUT telling me. I drove off and the car was overboosting. Pulled up and discovered the T-Piece.

Go to PSI if you guys want but it is at your own perril ........

SST dyno reads the same as PSI anyhow .... REAL FIGURES.

Oh and another thing, we almost died watchin the dyno runs at PSI. PSI has no extractor fan and the workshop filled with exhaust fumes. Cough Cough :(

The screen was excellent though. Were ever u go, orginise that !!

should be HAD no fan.

It was pretty bad though. Not only is it well ventilated now, but they have actually moved to diff location. And newer Dyno.. (as mentioned)

Summoner.. i actually went to Myaree cause it was the only one that i could book at an hours notice, was cheap (50 bucks for three runs).. and he printed the A/F ratio on the dyno sheet, so i could see that i wasn't leaning out too much in the top end.

I needed to know the a/f before i took it down to the Plex that night and thrashed the hell out of it.

but.... that said, to anyone who didn't know better, it does bring a smile to ya face.

righto

Rob u call and organise for a mid december weekend day at speedworks.

post a new thread in events when u have all your details and we'll start taking names.

if you say your in and forget to show without a valid reason poor form and it makes it alot harder for us to sort these things in the future as a poor turn out, after much hype from the guy organising it can get the tune shops off side.

also we can organise another in late janurary as that date sounds like it suited the other two shops anyway.

settled after rob has details posted i'm closing this thread.

    • Oh and my rear arms may need some attention too.    
    • Bushings are almost done. Check the date stamp 馃槀 these are likely the original bushings with 27 years and 243ks on them.     Was too dark to get a pic of the worst one.
    • Porous blocks are a known issue on something like a Porsche M96, it's not really something I've ever heard of on an RB26. It's possible what people thought was a "porous block" was really a cracked block that they just didn't spot the crack on.
    • This is a controversial subject really, the whole power vs fun thing I mean And this is the main reason I got back into a MX5 Of the last few notable daily cars I've owned whilst I have frequented SAU R33 GTS-t: fun, but because I'm a idiot I modified well past a reliable fun car and ended up hating it, although that was my fault because I tried to have a daily cruiser and race car all in one, the family called it the sometimes car, because sometimes it was working, sometimes it was broken, gladly sold it NB MX5: brilliant car, thrashed the Bejebus out of it, but, again, was stupid and deleted the air con, power steering and stripped the interior out, whilst still fun, and reliable, and super cheap on consumables, it was not a fun place to be going on long cruises, I did love it, but basically every family member hated going anywhere in it, sadly sold it 2015 WRX STI: soulless thing that looked like your average Kia sedan and had that horrible boxer engine with glass ringlands, the family did like it though, that thing was one of my stupidest purchases and I still regret it 2017 Toyota 86: 馃槳 if I didn't crash it, I would probably still have it, it was a fun little thing, even with that horrible boxer engine, the family did like it, the only reason I didn't get another 86, or, BRZ was the boxer engine, I should have learnt after owning the STI, but I'm a idiot VX SS: great cruiser, fits the whole family, and was fast as.....in a straight line, but a big fat thing, so no enjoyment throwing it around corners, the family was unimpressed with the whole boganness of if, but they did admit it was a comfy place to sit on long cruises As for the NC, I feel it is perfect for what I want, or need out of of a car, whether I'm cruising the Hwy, back roads, twisties or peak hour traffic, the Mrs doesn't mind driving it either, or cruising in it as well, although she does bump her head of the roof nearly every time she gets in, which is farking hilarious, and the kids love taking it for a thrash as well So basically, I've had constantly more fun, and way less headache and heartache, both on the track and on the street, in low powered cars,  go figure.....LOL One thing though, the Mrs has stated that the cams have made the exhaust sound much louder, which they have, but it doesn't bother me, in fact, I actually like it, but, to negate any future comments from the Minister for War and Finances I may look at some changes to the rear muffler set-up to drop the volume down a tad to appease her when we are out and about in it
    • You will need to extend the turbo inlet pipe somehow, which could/might be done with silicone/rubber pipe, but might need steelwork, depending on your intake. And you will need to change the pipework on the outlet in teh same way, but this is more likely to need steelwork.
