i know of one workshop that charged my friend $900 for a turbo install. Is this a resonable price - you dont have to state how much you paid guy just your opinion and other ppls opinion in general.

Can you PM me the name of the workshop (I have an idea, but I might be wrong)

yeah it is cold. Im looking throughout my wardrobe to look for jackets/jumpers/beanies and what not.

btw pete (gt nut) used a jetfighter heater or something like that when he resprayed his car - coincidently it was in winter. Do you think that it would be sufficent to make the drying process quicker?

whats a jetfighter heater?

i wouldnt use anything that blows air onto the car, cos anything floating past through the air will get blown onto the paint. but then again im reluctant to paint anything in the shed anymore, well 2K resprays anyway (from prior attempts). It would be difficult to find something that can put about 30 degrees of heat into every panel on the car, better off just to wait until a warm day. I think you can hire spray-booths in adelaide? if you could organise something like that, it would be way better.

Yeah, you could get away with just painting front panels in the shed. my suggestion would be to wait until warmer weather (if its possible), this makes a huge difference, and give the area that you are going to paint in a thorough cleanup (as little dust as possible), then hose the floor down with water so as to settle all the dust on the ground

    • 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.
