Seriously though, why did drift32sedan post get deleted - it didnt have anything offensive in it. As a close mate of mine I think its unfair how post like that are deleted simply because they state the truth.

Lots of you guys dont get what its all about and what the scene is and who the people in it are. They are just like you guys, enjoy driving there cars. You dont see us smirking and scoffing at track days and DECA days, but the moment drift is mentioned, you get a whole lotta people on here with the "yeah i tried its nothing special" because they cant drift properly.

Drifting is just as demanding as Track days, but the best thing about it is that to be successful at competition level, its not all about how big your wallet is.

Well said,

Some people dont know what drift is...

I agree with scotsman, love the sport don't like the scene!!

And yes i do know people in the scene possibly more people than you...

Who do you know Miss JUZ? Any Drift Australia Drivers? Any Super Drift Drivers? Two of my close mates compete in Drift Australia and they are heavily involved in the Melbourne Drift scene.

Mega Power Is one of the most upcoming drivers in Melbourne and competes in Super Drift so Its safe to say hes got 10 times more of a clue than you do.

Getting sideways out of Noble park maccas doesnt count as a drifter.

    • 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.
