crystal tail lights may not suit a 31 man

i sort of agree with you but im just curious on what it would look like although the import ass end does look good standard ive had the car 6 years now and was thinking of changing the look

get some old style wheels with massive offset and stretched tyres, and then lower it so it tucks tyre.

you can order those performance alloys watanabe rip off's in nearly any size you want... get some 15 X 10's 0 offset.

yeah ive got an old style deepdish 2 piece rim off a gts-x and as for the lowering ive already got adjustable koni shocks with lowered kings its pretty much the lowest 31 around well one of and people hate me for it so its wound up at the moment just above the tyre line

led conversion might be cool, without the 'ice'. would be a custom job though ive never heard of anyone making r31 ice bling taillights.

projector headlights, white out the black striping (or remove) and put a front lip on it with decent front bar. that way itll look better. ice taillights are the automotive worlds way of showing off your bad taste.

If you can understand Japanese, or have a translation program, somewhere in the R31House.co.jp site there are some pics of an R31 with LED tail lamps. They look exactally like the standard tail lamps, but once lit up the LED's look awesome.

Unfortunatly, their site has changed, and with me being unable to read japanese I have no idea what I am looking at.

**EDIT** I found a pic.....not the best but all I can find!

cheers mate i think u have seen them on that site ive also seen one skyline down the coast like that it looked good. if you want to fet in to r31 house go to http://babelfish.altavista.com/ and tranlate r31house.co.jp it will bring the whole site up in english :dry:

hotplates ftw

that's what the 'lines are known for, i see absolutely no reason to change it to try and be (apparently) cooler.

try an R30 taillight conversion if possible :D

im not trying to be cooler :) as you put it but if you had a car for six years you would want a change too, your coment on the want to be cooler part is so missled i want to be different not cool :P

ok sorry not quite cooler then, different eh...

sell it and buy a DR30! :D now that's different...

i was thinking about doing the opposite (selling it and buying a 31) but that's not financially possible at the mo' :(

id love to have a dr30 too but i cant part with it if i did it would be near impossible to find another one there getting quite rare i cant even find interior parts as the model i have which is the straight gts 1987. i could imagine how hard it would be to get parts for a dr as im led to believe there even rarer, the import rs that is :D

oh yeah its rare as anything, and expensive too. there are some shops in japan that stock some parts but u can imagine the hassle in that :blink:

yep thats the price we pay for having rare cars but its worth it all the same. and it is a hassle getting stuff from japan when your just an everyday person and not a company that can import in bulk :

    • 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.
