Lucio, just to let u know I will be coming after 1pm. I got church to attend to, but I will be there :)
←

Yeah I'm a goodie too but I'll go to an early one :P

Any tips or suggestions for the day?

I believe tyre pressure needs to be at 40psi for shoot out mode.

Also I recommend you keep the tyre shine/black to minimum or not at all on the fronts to ensure there's no slip at all on the rollers.

Goes without saying to please check all your fluid levels before turning up.

will my 18's affect my power figures?

May affect your acceleration on the road but I don't think it actually affects your power output on a dyno, but someone correct me if I'm wrong.

oodee · October 11, 2005

Its allrite if we get a few extra cars, anything up to 40 cars is menagable in a day i should think.
←

I thought we had a maximum of 30 cars?
Corollas take preference i assume :P
any places close by to take some happy snaps?
this could quite possibly be the biggest meet we've had in quite a while

hopefully what lucio said is right.... we can go all night.... the cooler the air the better... and the fan will just make it better :)

Yeah me too usually put it on by the bucket :D Just bring it along and apply after your run so you can look all shiny for the photos :P

DANZZT231 · October 11, 2005

But the shine is on the tyre sidewalls though. That shouldn't effect the run. Or is the dyno has a sidewall roller too? So far, none of the dyno I went to has a side roller.

Don' worry, they have a fan to simulate air induction based on how fast you're going on the roller. At least the one I went to in Sydney is like that, or at least that's what I thought it is. Correct me.

Yeah what I mean is don't put so much on that it drips into your tread (like I usually do :D

Hey they just have to look black!

DANZZT231 · October 12, 2005

Ahahaha, this reminds me of a friend went to check out hsi friend's bike. He says his friends shines the whole tyres, yes the whole tyre inc the thread, making it look brand new. The idiot obviously didn't know what he's doing, and he stack his bike coz he couldn't brake :P

ahahahhaa

Putting tyre shine on motorbike tyre sidewalls would look pretty weird, so I can understand why he did the whole tyre.. hahah

We got more than 30, u think we can do all of them?

Chompies · October 12, 2005

Ye, good question danz.. Since I'll be rocking up late, no doubt my name will be at the end of the list. I dont want to find out at 5pm that there are too many cars and theres not enough time to do mine..

After all, Lucio did say this:

Ok, just spoke to them again, you get 3 runs they provide a printout, and 30 cars is about the most they can do in a day. :D Let the battle begin.

Please define point one. Does this include a replacement panel filter over the stock unit?

I reckon a replacement panel filter = not stock any more. Stock should mean no changes to engine whatsoever.

4. BEST TOYOTA NON-COROLLA FORCED INDUCTION (includes modified and non-modified).

I don't think that exists on the list of people coming.

Does that mean that a panel filter from Toyota Service and a panel filter from autobarn or supercheap auto as a replacement is a modification?
A better definition is required, replacement of a "filter" to another "filter" is not deamed a modification by insurance companies, while extra tubing and CAI is.
I would suggest that a normal-sized direct replacement panel filter, no matter the brand is a non-modifications. Obviously the insurance companies assume the same.
←

Well, if you send it back to Toyota and get an OEM panel filter then of course its still considered stock. If something goes wrong with your engine, it will be covered under warranty. But if you get a K&N panel filter (or any other for that matter), then that has a possibility to void your warranty. K&N also advertises that their panel filters improve your car's performance.

Anyway, I'm sure Lucio (or whoever is organising the prizes) will clear this up.

supose it depends on the car your driving.

isnt all the rollas going first before the others because of the dyno having diff settings?

if so and your late but have a rolla youll just be added to the end of the rolla list.

i think unless theres some objections to it but to get all cars in on the car would be much easier to let all of 1 type of car first(rollas) then all of the next and so on.

so the guys dont have to change the dyno setup everytime.

lucio_libre · October 12, 2005

*ripping out hair* . I will make categories as follows

Best Stock Corolla a.1zzfe

b.2zzge

Best Modified Corolla a.1zzfe

b.2zzge

Best Normally aspirated

Best Turbo

First we have the draw of the hat, and i will place names on the board accordingly, then I will have a sheet with the following headings from left to right.

eg:

NAME CAR TYPE, CATEGORY, PAYMENT MADE, RUN1 RUN2, RUN3

Lucio 05 Sportivo Modified Yes 143.4 144.2 145.2

Since we have 3 runs, should the most power figure be on average or the highest run......im thinking the highest run.

Cool?

spec_black · October 12, 2005

highest run sounds cool
