Try Bunnings?

Or a specialist tool shop. I got some things from a bolt shop in penrith that seemed to have alot of specialist tools. I think it was called bolt master. The place is right across from Race Solutions (HITMAN's).

Good luck on finding it..

And what is it for, as it will be a fairly minute hole.

Cheers

Dick Smith's has a set with a .5 mm drill but that's the smallest I've seen in a retail store. 12 piece high speed PCB drill bits for small hobby applications. Sizes are 0.5, 0.8, 1.0, 1.2, and 1.5mm diameter. You may have to try a speciality machinist tool shop.

What are you trying to do? The drills get very brittle when they get down that small and you can't just stick them in a normal chuck.

If it's only plastic you might be able to find a bit of piano wire in that gauge from a hobby store, heat it up with a blowtorch until its yellow and pierce it though.

Otherwise it's not going to be real easy, jewellery store supplies 'might' have something like that for metalwork too.

Almost certain you could get one from Gasweld.

Yep, what you need are GAS drills. (calibrated accurately & small enough for gas/fuel jets etc)

Forget Dick Smith, Bunnings etc- that would be like going to a Woolies servo & expecting to find proper race fuel.......

Hey mate, You can get them in dremel packs of drill bits.. Would be slightly hard to use on a drill tho and a rotary tool or dremel spins quite quick..

but yeah rotary tools have those sizes.. bunnings in the dremel section

    • 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.
