Quick simple question for everyone.

"Of all the mods performed to your car (maybe new suspension, exhaust, a set of wheels, stereo gear, even that monster tacho)

which has brought the biggest smile to your face???"

I may as well start off. My fav mod would be the splitfire coilpacks, as after 6 months of constant misfiring whenever the car hit boost, problem solved and for a mod that wouldnt increase the cars power, it gave me back a lot of missing power.

Interested to hear everyone elses fav's

Luke...

(ps. purpose for this thread, secretly is to help sort the order my next group of mods)

ha, you luv your pod filter then spunky munky..., recently iv replaced the element in my HKS pod and its gone from the sucking sound (because the element was falling apart!) to a deep wurring sound like a ghost :) .

its not an expensive mod, more of a replacement but its something iv been happy with for under $50

apexi power fc..... due to its flexability and even tho the hand controller looks a little like an old gameboy its awesome to know exactly whats goin on with the engine: injector duty, boost, precise revs, precise temp and the list goes on! not a cheap mod but its payed itself off in 2 months in my eyes.

manual boost controller, gained an extra 15rwkw and a lot more response.

but i'll probably change my answer once the aftermarket ecu, injectors, high flow turbo go in :)

Removal of HICAS.

Some things are just not meant to be in existance.

lol.

For me it would have to be the HKS turbo, the increase in power and the awesome sound these things have always puts a smile on my face when coming onto boost.

    • 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.
