285lbft actually Very Happy and damo's was 296lbft, but 280lbft atf with 342bhp atf is still quite a low figure imho. I ve run my car on 3 rolling roads that all use UK spec conversions not US like I believe abbey use! All 3 of the rolling roads I ve used have been very similar figure wise ( surrey rolling road
, power engineering and engine advantages)

When the skyline owners club had a rolling road day at power engineering earlier this year there were a few disappointed owners as they're abbey figures were more optimistic than power engineering's figures.

It doesn't fill me with confidence when they give you a figure then tell you to add an approximate figure to make the flywheel power. With a set of rollers the transmission drag is worked out on the run down after the run has been completed then the true flywheel power figure can be worked out.

I know everyone has different opinions on this subject so I'll just leave it at that.


Glad it's all running ok now tho darren!Thumbs Up!

You can now join us in october for the santa pod night racing the challenge is set to beat damo's time of 13.2 Very Happy

yea, but when you have ATH figures, that's what you should be using to compare. 255lbft @ the hubs is pretty good.

you will never get true atf figures with a rr or dyno pack, the only way to get a true reading is on a engine dyno Thumbs Up!
