Browsing the forum this morning I noticed a thread which asked "What would you do to your skyline?". So I'm asking you, all money aside, what would you do to your current car?

Crazy engine conversions? wide body? custom made rims?

Personaly with my GTS-t I'd do a 2jz conversion or maybe a 20b rotary for something different. Twin setup for response. Spray it matte black or similar, black 19" TE37, stock kit. Make it real sleeper.

What would you do?

id keep it AND buy a 35 gtr. nah i'd go drift spec, Vertex kit with wheels that hang wider than the kit, drift lip, drop in a rb28dett with forged internals, couple of responsive turbo's.

i would replace everything with brand new items (like seals and interior things and all that)

chuck a worked off its tits RB30DETT in. Respray me car black with a dark green pearl and chuck some 19" black Nismo LMGT4's on it :(

and now i just woke up and reality just kicked in :)

LOL I kind of already did it.....

If i could go back i would have gone rb26 instead of spending what i have on the rb20! Apart from that i did what i wanted to do!

^^

GRIM is the r32 that has everything done to it, very very nice...

You dont see many "off tap" RB20s around tho ben. its a killa ride :(

and kind of already doing it again with the 260 :(

I would.... completely respray the car inside out - same factory colour, retrim the interior - black leather with red stitching, 18" wheels - nismo LMGT4, every suspension component replaced with new or aftermarket parts and slightly lowered, and work the motor up realllllllll good. Eventually I'll do it all :(

Cheers Joel, im rather proud of my work on it, i will miss it when i eventually sell it! And no i wouldnt say theres too many 32's with that extent of work to it in SA!

and kind of already doing it again with the 260 :)

Yeah i kind of have gotten a little carried away there havent i Damo! lol! Just wait for the next project that will come when GRIM goes! ;)

I'd love to fully strip and restore the 33 piece by piece; engine, body, and running gear...

Throw in aftermarket & forged goodies, but keep it stealth/factory looking as possible...

If only i had the time and patience to begin with! (money aside)

So you found a thread and decided to start another exactly the same????? ok..

with my current 33 I'd just do the normal get it back to perfect condition interior and exterior with only a few personallised bits and pieces..

The fun starts when I buy my 2nd 33....

Make a ute out of it like in my sig!!!!

    • 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.
