Wow!!

wouldnt have thought 6 figures.....

I know there was one at an auction few months back - had around 50k on the clock and was around 50k - I think it actually got passed in!

I still dont belive these cars will get much more value as opposed to the 70's muscle cars.

it will go big, mainly because of Peter's recent death. apart from the cool history aspect it's a pretty average car though >_<

give me the plastic pig group A walkinshaw any day thanks. :(

i spoke to a guy who paid $150,000 for a walky with only 1200kms on the clock.

these aussie muscle cars values are getting a bit out of hand now.....

dont even have to be muscle these days

even a stock 250 xw 3 on the tree in average condition is pulling over 5 k these days

pity it can NOT be a genuine original as delivered by GMH as stated or it would NOT have the infamous polariser on it

Brock added them after they left GMH

you should re-read the section "PRESENTS AS IT DID ON DELIVERY IN 1987 FROM HDT. "

I'm gonna win lotto, buy it and enter it in the burnout comp at summernats just to piss off the purists. :P

Seriously, it shits me to see ads like that. Bloody thing was built to be driven, not make some anal retentive halfwit rich :(

Pity GTS-R's arent worth that lol

There accouple in unique cars between $100,000 and $110,000. FUnny thing is 6 months ago they weren't werth 1/2 that. Dad has Gts-R #68 and almost sold it for $45,000, and he thought he was doing well. He's glad the sale fell through now.

there was a fella in gympie that had an origianl monaro that he sold for 6 figures. he sent it down to auction in brissy or sydney with a reserve of something stupid like 75k just for shits and giggles and it ended up going for well over 100k. he had owned it from new and still had the original receipt from holden for it.

but that is because they can turn them into replicas of the phase 2. but if you go and buy a dirty old torana you won't get that much for it unless it is 1 of the classic ones.

mad - was that the yellow one sold at the sydney motor show auction last year?

sounds like it!

the next most common thing is for people making/building/buying replicas

replica XU1's, SS hatches, GT's etc etc etc people are starting to buy them which of course, people who already own them think that there cars should be worth more..

Are you talking the VR/VS GTS-R from holden or the Nissan HR GTS-R?

They were a nice rare model aswell

(i was talking the Nissan hehe)

      RB20DE NEO smallbox clutch.

      By Kapr · Posted

      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.
