Guest Terry S Posted September 3, 2002 Share Posted September 3, 2002 JB, Have they stated what RWHP it can handle? I haven't found one man enough yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex Posted September 4, 2002 Share Posted September 4, 2002 Can't comment on Branners's question but I read in either RaceTech or Racecar Engineer about a new dyno in the UK which can hold 1800RWHP (they are able to pin the car to the rollers to test it. I believe its 1200RWHP and 600FWHP It begins with a G....can't remember - I did mention it in a thread I wrote in General Discussion have a search....

Paul Whiffin Posted September 4, 2002 Share Posted September 4, 2002 Is that the type that bolts to your rear wheels or something? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Branners Posted September 4, 2002 Author Share Posted September 4, 2002 Having read a few other comments on the skyline BBS it is a dyno that bolts to the wheels as opposed to trying to make a car sit on a couple of spinning beer kegs... So perhaps it can take powerful cars, just a question of how good the measuring system is. JB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex Posted September 4, 2002 Share Posted September 4, 2002 The only one I've seen advertised where by you bolt the car to two "motors" is only rated at 6-800HP...which is enough for most but not the proper motors! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Terry S Posted September 4, 2002 Share Posted September 4, 2002 Alex I need more info. Any ideas of names or numbers for these places. I will need to do some fine tunning. It's either a decent RR or Bruntingthorpe & a laptop:eek: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Terry S Posted September 4, 2002 Share Posted September 4, 2002 Alex you are a star, I have found it G-Force in Aylesbury Bucks. 10 Mins from Leon's new place! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex Posted September 4, 2002 Share Posted September 4, 2002 Originally posted by Terry Saunders Alex you are a star I'm not used to praise...in fact that might have been a first! If I remember correctly it a temperature controlled room and able to cope with "high speed" runs...the car pictured on the rollers was a Porsche GT2 full works prepared race car. Its the only one in the world of its type...but that could be good or bad! When you get your car up and running you and Leon should have a face off down at G-Force!
