parking officers just stare at your car for 2 hours straight in the parking lot.

when you come to renew your parking ticket (so you dont have to pay for the non-free time), they pounce and fine you.

i feel like slapping them silly.!!!! :P

When your missus says "you love that F$%ken car more than me"! (prob been said already)

, and when you return to the car after shopping and think to yourself " what a sexy f$%ken machine"! ( it still excites me to this day).

You know you own a Skyline when you spend 30mins checking vacuum lines before you go for a cruise.

....When the copper that lives in your street warns you that there is a blitz on the weekend.

....When you add up how much you have spent and think fark....then pass out...:)

....When your Dad take your mum for a drive in your Skyline and she gets out and goes "what the f**k do you want a car that fast for?"

...When you smile at what she just said and say "Its only on low boost"

....When the first thing people say when they hop in the car for the first time is "WTF is that?" (PFC commander)

....When people scoff when you say its only a 2.5L till they come for a thrash.

You know you drive a Skyline when your undies are worn and tattered and cant be f**ked buying new ones coz all your money is being spent replacing things that dont need replacing on the Skyline!

your girlfiend complains about sore boobs from bouncing around due to stupidly hard coilovers

in a carpark u park about 30cms away from a brick wall on the drivers side, then climb over and get out the passenger side (to reduce to risk of dents/scratches

haha, i parked in a 1hr zone, came back to car and saw chalk on the tyres. Moved car to second level of carpark and wiped off chalk. Come back to car and fine on window :)

If i had a regular common car he wouldnt remember it from the previous hour where he marked my tyre :P

You go through money like a drug habbit-Guilty

Hate telling your missus whats inside the express post box every month or so-Guilty

Driving past buildings with windows just to see how damn nice your car is-Guilty

Makes turbo spool and blow off noise from time to time-Guilty

Looks at other cars on the road saying "Id smash that,id smash that too,and that-Guilty

Drives the 4 cylinder shit box more that the skyline-Guilty

When walking around corners,pretends to clutch kick and drifts around the corner-Guilty

Thinks every noise and clunk i hear when driving i think its worse that it really is-Guilty

Sometimes takes the long way home because i think someone is following me-Guilty(but you cant be too careful these days)

When people ask how much ive spent on my car i say "see your car? I could buy it twice"

Cant look a copper in the eye-Guilty

Clutch the car going past an RBT-Guilty

EDIT:When my gf say "Why dont you spend as much money on me?" I say "When you pull as hard as the skyline does i might consider it"

If i hear something late at night ill run through the house to the garage and turn the light on-Guilty

Other people look at you while driving and think you are a hoodlum (Only the skyline owners who are not apart of the SAU family are hoodlums)

When your dad now knows your car as "The Star Ship Enterprise"..."Warp speed Mr Sulu"

There is a wallpaper of your turbo on your phone-Guilty

Your GF now knows what "lag" is

Go to Japan to buy cheap parts-Guilty

Can pick the note of a RB-Guilty

- when SAPOL spends more time under your bonnet than you do.

- get more defects than you get petrol.

- you see more cops in your skyline than when you were driving the 4 banger work horse ten minutes earlier.

- you drive through a car park in 1st gear at 4000rpm just to hear the sweet sound R n B, i mean rb.

- you drive through a car park and every third car you drive pass you'll set the alarm off from the burble of the rb.

- you boost it through a car park to get the flutter sound as you drive past people.

EDIT: These aren't funny but true, for some unfortunate people out there.

Lately it seems....

- you see your drive way empty.

- you constantly check your thread titled: My skyline stolen.

- you see someone else boosting off in your skyline.

    • 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.
