Hi all,
After seeing the cancelled dyno day I posted on the thread asking if anyone was interested to try again and I got a few responses so I though I would see if there is still enough interest to do it.
I figure it would be a good to get a load of local clio owners together so everyone can see each others cars in action and get ideas for their own. My track car in the making 'Project Fast Frenchy' will be there for all to see, link to my project thread at the bottom.
A friend of mine owns a workshop in Southend, Essex with a brand new (so extremely accurate) 4WD Dyno. He specialises in Nissan's but works on all cars including my clio. Bob Heywood (owner of Torque of the South and GTI-R-US) is a very experienced mechanic and will be running the day at his workshop so if you are looking to do some mods to your car but not sure on the pros and cons ask him on the day.
There is currently no date set, but it will be a Saturday to increase the chance people can make it for now I am going to say Saturday the 3rd of October but this can be changed if it is inconvenient for too many people, full payment will be required 2 weeks in advance.
The price is £41.70 per car (cost breakdown below) and will include printout of BHP at wheels, flywheel and torque reading. +1s and watchers welcome. You can bring any car you like so invite you mates, although Clio's will probably get to go first, it is a clio forum after all (unless you bring a Nissan then Bob will probably overrule me :tongueout
. Every car will get a basic check before going on the Dyno to ensure there are no problems, he doesn't want your car spilling oil over his shiny new Dyno :smile:. There will be tea, coffee and biscuits provided for all.
There needs to be a minimum of 10 cars for this to go ahead with a maximum of 15 (may be able to increase if there is enough interest)
If you are interested PM me with the details below in red and add your details to the to the list below for everyone to see. When 12 people have added their details below I will ask for payment for everyone and update the list accordingly.
Full payment 2 weeks in advance to my paypal (tim.drake1988@googlemail.com) is the only way to get a space. As I do not want to have 15 names but only 2 show up as its not worth the hassle for the workshop. My name is Tim Drake (078 7575 8080) feel free to text me with any queries, I would advise putting them on the thread first as you will probably not be the only one with the question. You can also call / email / text / visit Bob Heywood to verify who I am and that I am acting on behalf of him to arrange this event, his details are below and on his website, also below.
So it's all clear, I am taking no commission or payment of any kind from this at all, just arranging it to help the forum as its been a brilliant resource for me in the past week or so since I started my build and to give some business to a friend who has also helped me out a lot. The dyno charge is £40 and the £1.70 is to cover the paypal fees. If you want to gift the payment that is up to you, but I would not advise gifting any payment to someone you do not know. You may pay by other means as long as full payment is received 2 weeks in advance of the dyno day, PM me for details of other payment methods.
