' date='12 Jun 2006, 10:53 PM' post='2250085'] awsome mitchy :) brett is a top dude :O

they brought my nismo frontbar back from the dead (almost 3whole days of work on it)

yeah.. i rang around a fair bit, everyone gave me outrageous quotes as they didnt want to touch fibreglass (but wouldnt admit it), and they were all reluctant to do any work on the car at all.

brett said straight out he would do it for me, and he has had the best price, quickest time, and best attitude of the lot!

when i need my rear bar modified for twin exhausts, i know where im taking it :D

Just remember who ever you go with to have patience, make sure you have a run around car, and make sure you get the total cost, including refitting and removing the windows. 32 front windscreens tend to crack when you remove them, so budget for that too.

Oh and take heaps of photos so you know where everything goes back too >_<

well its starts off as 3k upwards, depends what i want done. they said that they rub the car to bear metal and fix all the lil dents and stuff. i am only after the outside of the car done. so i am expecting around 4 to 5 k with the job i want done and i am in no rush. no deposit needed so i can just drop my car off. job could take a few months but as i said i am in no rush cause i need to come up with the money. first i am getting the full exhaust system and a FMIC on my car then i will be putting it in for paint. hoping to get a grand out of my tax return.

brett has my car now..

getting new front bar fitted and painted, some panel damage rectified, few scratches painted, rear pods refitted, tail light covers painted black, skyline garnish done in white with black lettering, and a complete buff all over the car...

:D cant wait to see what it looks like when its all done...

Lol no rush, by the sounds of it weve got months :D

Yeh mitchy your car should look interesting once its finished. What bar did you choose? and why black for the tail light surrounds?

chose the trust style front bar again, however it doesnt have the side vents anymore, no indicator cutouts in the front, and its designed for a gts-t, not a gtr like the last one.. :thumbsup:

black surrounds is just something different, will probably tint the hot-plates too.

might be getting some veilside rear pods too, dave is checking if he had some floating around. :D

saw your r32 sitting inside.. didnt even realise it was a skyline, thats how stripped it was :)

should look sweet come autosalon :)

    • For once a good news  It needed to be adjusted by that one nut and it is ok  At least something was easy But thank you very much for help. But a small issue is now(gearbox) that when the car is stationary you can hear "clinking" from gearbox so some of the bearing is 100% not that happy... It goes away once you push clutch so it is 100% gearbox. Just if you know...what that bearing could be? It sounding like "spun bearing" but it is louder.
    • Yeah, that's fine**. But the numbers you came up with are just wrong. Try it for yourself. Put in any voltage from the possible range and see what result you get. You get nonsense. ** When I say "fine", I mean, it's still shit. The very simple linear formula (slope & intercept) is shit for a sensor with a non-linear response. This is the curve, from your data above. Look at the CURVE! It's only really linear between about 30 and 90 °C. And if you used only that range to define a curve, it would be great. But you would go more and more wrong as you went to higher temps. And that is why the slope & intercept found when you use 50 and 150 as the end points is so bad halfway between those points. The real curve is a long way below the linear curve which just zips straight between the end points, like this one. You could probably use the same slope and a lower intercept, to move that straight line down, and spread the error out. But you would 5-10°C off in a lot of places. You'd need to say what temperature range you really wanted to be most right - say, 100 to 130, and plop the line closest to teh real curve in that region, which would make it quite wrong down at the lower temperatures. Let me just say that HPTuners are not being realistic in only allowing for a simple linear curve. 
    • I feel I should re-iterate. The above picture is the only option available in the software and the blurb from HP Tuners I quoted earlier is the only way to add data to it and that's the description they offer as to how to figure it out. The only fields available is the blank box after (Input/ ) and the box right before = Output. Those are the only numbers that can be entered.
    • No, your formula is arse backwards. Mine is totally different to yours, and is the one I said was bang on at 50 and 150. I'll put your data into Excel (actually it already is, chart it and fit a linear fit to it, aiming to make it evenly wrong across the whole span. But not now. Other things to do first.
    • God damnit. The only option I actually have in the software is the one that is screenshotted. I am glad that I at least got it right... for those two points. Would it actually change anything if I chose/used 80C and 120C as the two points instead? My brain wants to imagine the formula put into HPtuners would be the same equation, otherwise none of this makes sense to me, unless: 1) The formula you put into VCM Scanner/HPTuners is always linear 2) The two points/input pairs are only arbitrary to choose (as the documentation implies) IF the actual scaling of the sensor is linear. then 3) If the scaling is not linear, the two points you choose matter a great deal, because the formula will draw a line between those two points only.
