Joint Dyno Day with 300zx Club

[Murt]

You guys are more than welcome to join us on our dyno day. As you know the more people we have the cheaper!!

The RR will be held at Circuit Motors on the 26th Of September


At the moment its £40 but it includes a few tests!

Air to Fuel Ratio
Boost pressure
2 runs back to back
Power at Fly
Power at Wheels
Amount of torque

** If your car is an Automatic, unfortunately we can only measure power against road speed. This will also be power at flywheel and wheels, but it is pretty impossible to measure torque accurately with an automatic car with a torque converter.



1) Darryl (300zx)
2) Old Zed (300zx)
3) Ep1ccenter (S14a)
4) Madmarco (300zx)
5) Murt (300zx)

I'm up for that

[Cornwall]

I would love to attend but Nissan is dead:(

Also going to be at combe for the mini action day, if I get a chance to pop in on the way past I will :thumbs:

[Bristol Blue]

So Luis' going is he?!!! (Can't remember if I've ever seen his on the rollers!)

Cheers for posting that up. Not sure if I'll run, I'd like to. Haven't had a power run since it was detuned!! Should still be around the 300 mark.

Either way I'll certainly be in attendance.:thumbs:

Thanks.

[Bristol Blue]

In fact I will definitely be there. That is the same day we had ours last year and it coincides with the MiniWorld Action Day, next door at Combe Circuit.

So yes I'll be getting myself some track tickets for the non mini track sessions!! (Like last year!)

Anyone else want to join me on track!:smash:

I do however have work on that day so how I'm going to fit it all in I don't know. - Hopefully I can get the work done in the morning. Assuming I start at a silly early time.

[koukiS14a]

[Bristol Blue]

£35 and only available on the day, and at the end of the day in the non mini sessions. Usual 100db noise limit.

[jon200]

[koukiS14a]

Do you know if you have to pay entrance on top of the £35 steve?

[koukiS14a]

Entrance on the day! Not sure. Yes the event does cost around £10 entrance. However there has normally been an unwritten rule that if you go to Combe after 1500h it is generally free admittance.

Also you can walk through from Circuit motors straight into Combe Paddock.;)

Steve Id like to go round with you on track as passenger if possible ? What would this entail ? Im good as gold and dont freighten or cry for my mummy or anything ! Would my bottom have to be sound checked !? Cause it definately aint 50 dB !!!!!!

Sorry only just seen your post.

Sound check is 100db at half a meter from your exhaust. If you fail you won't get on unless you can baffle it somehow.

I don't know what time I'll be getting there due to work, I'll probably park up at Circuit motors with the 300ZX crew and stroll over to the Strawford Centre to get a track pass.

They'll probably issue something in the non mini's slot at the end of the afternoon.

I think the cost is £35. And £5 for helmet hire if you need.

[Bristol Blue]

D'oh just realized you were on about as a passenger not you taking your car round. Thought you were being a bit brave!


:annoyed:


You don't fancy putting yours on the rollers then?:)

[Gazwould]

Lol, lol, is that a yes then !? Rollers:no: it doesnt go over 4000rpm or 200mph lol

[Bristol Blue]

[Gazwould]

Cheers Steve, look forward to that & this mornings photoshoot results.:thumbs:

[Bristol Blue]

Not sure what time I'm going to get there on Saturday.

Doubt I'll going to get out of work before 12:(

Hopefully see you guys then and catch the tail end of the runners.
:thumbs:

[Murt]

Bad news guys...... Got this Email Earier....

Hi Matt,

I have held off untill now before contacting you but
unfortunately it looks like we have to cancel the dyno day schedualled for this Saturday. The reason being is that Dastek are here overhauling our dyno at the moment and have run into a few problems. Although it looks like it maybe finished late Friday evening, I would much rather test the dyno properly before running a dyno day, where power figures are all so important.

I understand that with the event being moved already is going to upset a few people and some may not want to bother attending the dyno day atall, but as it is us which has had to cancel the day this time even though it isn't due to us, if you rebook, we will further discount the price for you.

We have been waiting a long for Performance HQ (Ex Dastek UK and our dyno supplier) to come and put right things which have problematic on the dyno. They have been down since Tuesday eve and promised it will all be ready for me by Friday afternoon.... But looking at the dyno right now, it isn't going to be ready.

Please accept my appologies and hopefully not too much negative will come out of this with the offer of a further reduction in the dyno day price.

Kindest Regards,

Paul.
Circuit Motors.

:( i might pop up anyway and see if they need a car to test it on ;)

[Bristol Blue]

Arse

I'll be going there anyway as I'm hoping to get a track pass at Combe in the avo.



Cheers for the update:thumbs:

Ah!! That's a good plan. He reckons he owes me a free power run anyway as we didn't do a final power run after I had the car remapped.

Only the one at the beginning and one when everything was push up (boost, timing etc) and I scored 342bhp!!!!

[jon200]

thats a nice number steve.

what mods is that with? you got a SAFC?

[Murt]

This will be rearranged soon... keep an eye on this thread....

[jon200]

any new yet :)

[Murt]

any new yet :)

Not yet mate... nothing through :(

[jon200]

Ow :( i may just pop up there one sat. Don't suppose you know how much it would normally be not as a group.

50 im guessing mate

[VoodooRhythm]

I've spoken to Paul before and the rollers are normally charged at £70p/h so all depends on how long you're on there.
I really want to know what mine's making now, but won't be able to afford £30+

[jon200]

£70/hr isn't too bad. I'd like to get a few runs in and maybe try adjusting the timing a little for more powers.
