So after last year's great overnight engine swap in Vancouver , we felt a bit sorry for the guys and thought we'd go easier on them.
In fact, they decided to bring their families to the Great White North for a bit of R&R before our scheduled dyno weekend.
I had a week of holidays coming, a spare Z car to loan out, and the Canadian Rockies to explore...
Not Bad...
Seb's Loaner car
Meet the DuPrees: Greg, Tracy, Dustin & Dillon
Sebastian & Sonya
Typical Canadian swimming pool
Climbing up to...
The Ice Cave... Greg steamrolls in
Woah, is the ceiling supposed to crack like that?
Angel Glacier
Le Snowvert
Seb encounters a bear
Sonya encounters a bear
Uh, we ALL encounter a bear
Don't leave your car, pay them money, and they'll go away
Seb can only follow behind for so long
Greg follows suit... heading back
Part II Le Dyno Weekend
Gathering in the parking lot... rare gold TT Z dropped by to check things out:
Greg & Seb get to work. First up, Jeff's 350Z
My first tune for 91 octane
I think Greg likes Kent's black convertible
One of the dyno shop's customer drag cars
Any way you CF it, Tom's car was a 750hp+ monster
I think Kent (ConVerTT) likes his GT28 numbers
Roy's stock TT with breather mods was a sales pitch for inlet piping
Tim's '92 TT
Dyno Shop owner's daily driver: Mercury Zephyr with LS-1 and 2 HHHHUUUUggggeee stonking turbos
Bumper sticker reads: "RETIRED, Now Just Go Around Me"
Nice shop
Wow, what a week. We here in Canuckistan are grateful for Greg & Sebs hard work (22 hours of dyno time in 2 days).
Our Zeds appreciate the attention, and we will be gearing up for a return visit in 2012.
Glad top see we have earned a place of honour on the SZ shop wall:

My Zs are hybrid vehicles, they run on gasoline and money

I was more wondering how you set your climate control to 22* lol, it would be that fastest freezer on wheels! - Briscoe'sZ32 (NJ) 23:15:44 02/05/07
You have *got* to be getting a cut from B&B :D - SeedyROM 15:24:29 08/16/06 What do you think B&B stands for? - YugoBernie (NoVA) 15:57:09 08/16/06
