So looking at the SK pic, in standard trim, the subframe floats up and down on those mount points, and the pinapples fill a that gap.

If you get Aluminum ones, sound is tramitted through the frame.

For all round performance use the bottom ones (non split)

For drift tilt the diff back using btm front, top rear.

For drag tilt it forward using top front, btm rear.

"I have the otomotto kit and i have 2 large split and 2 small non split"

This would be a kit designed for drag then.

The whiteline doesnt have the scope for drift? and if you put all 4 budshes in the rear it is a marginal drift setup?

EDIT! The whiteline doesnt have the scope for drag?

couldn't remember if you had the pinapples or not but from memory your car was quiet, handled awsome and had the same firm ride in a straight line as mine with its standard springs and uprated shocks (on car when bought). Cheers for letting me know you did have them for our spin :thumbsup:

P.S. enjoying the job? had to do a couple of your call outs. Sick of being told "can't make it" yet?

Not so, you put the small split rings above the subframe at the rear and the large non split below the subframe at the front. This give max antisquat which reduces the rear end grip, making it the ideal setting for drift. It's the bottom left hand drawing in the instructions.

:thumbsup: Cheer :)

I have most definitely used the drag setting (maximum squat) on a few cars that I have worked on, as well as my own. The usual improvement in 60' times is 0.15 second from the subframe alignment.

That setting is the lower left in the instructions (maximum traction). With the small, split rings on top at the front and small, non split rings on the bottom at the rear.

:( cheers :)

most people i've spoken to using them in drift cars, go for either "All Round" or "grip"

As someone mentioned above, and has been confirmed with a few people i've spoken to who have used them in "drift" setup, they are stupidly slippery and becomes more of a hinderance than a benefit if the car is properly set up in the first place.

Any problems with understeer or problems loosing traction for drift should be overcomed using different wheels/tyres or different stabiliser bar settings.

how long generaly should the whiteline pineapples last for ??

i got mine about a year ago but i think there starting to die now...

      Input shaft bearing. They all do it. There is always rollover noise in Nissan boxes - particularly the big box. Don't worry about it unless it gets really growly.

      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.
