Guys I am thinking about organising a 350 Z tech day at APS in Melbourne for forum members to discuss in detail the Unichip computer for the 350 Z and to conduct some live REAL TIME tuning on the Z engine. It would be possible to also dyno test approx 10 Z cars, I would be interested to know how many forum members would be interested in attending?

There will be a $60 charge to dyno test and print power and torque graphs for each car and APS will organise a sausage sizzle and drinks............should be a fun day.

Let me know what your thoughts are.

Thanks

Peter

 

Peter, That will be a cool idea!!!! Will like to dyno my car after I got the cats too and also would like to see how much power will the chip add to the car..... sign me in!

cheers,

With bells on mate. As I discussed with you, I'm back from sunny Penang on the 18th of July so any time after and I will be there.

Jim

 

If the date falls around the end of July or later I may be able to pop in.

I'm due for a trip down...not with the car btw. Plane is so cheap and fast.

 

I'm with zuff, but I'll be there by car. I just have to wait for my car to be fixed.

 

Will we be allowed to see the dyno this time?

 

Only if your in Melbourne for the day,you see APS is an engineering facility, not a back yard work shop.

You can't just have people wandering around a dyno facility, I have seen customers put their feet into the rollers, seen another guy hit with a wheel weight (not a pretty sight, nearly cut the guys arm off) and seen another person hit in the face by a broken fan belt (lost his eye) none of the above would have occured if the customer had been kept well clear of the dyno room.

Thats all fair enough, but to come to Melbourne and not be able to see the dyno doesnt quite seem worth it.

****, Putting your feet 'in' the rollers couldnt be very good. Actually none of those things sound very good.

What happened to their feet? if you dont want to answer this I understand.

 

Well I promise if you attend the APS tech day you will get a full tour of the dyno facility.

It is a bit of a marvel really... the only accurate dyno in the southern hemisphere.

 

Cool what date was set on? Put me in as well

 

Sounds like a great idea !
More Z's than in a nissan showroom sounds like fun

 

Count me in too!

 

OK guys I will look into what days we have free over the next 6 weeks or so...........I assume a saturday would be best for most members.............so let me know if you guys are happy with saturday as the best day to organise this.

Peter:

I am fine with Saturday!!!

cheers,

Sounds great Peter,

A Saturday would be good. Preferably, either 24th or 31st of July, or 14th or 21st of August would be great!

Cheers,

Neil

 

Any Update on this Peter???
