JMHO, but better putting your efforts into finding rocking horse poo.

The people that pay big money for 240K's live in Dubai and you probably can't compete with them.

I know of one that recently got sold to connections from Dubai for over $14000.00.

Cheers, D

Actually, arabs (240k obsessed Kuwatis in particular) prefer the 240K sedan. If they can't afford or find a sedan they'll buy a coupe instead, but they are then mocked by the sedan owners, who refer to the coupe as the cow. They say, "you have a cow," and then start sAfrican Americaning. Then everyone does burnouts.

In virtually every other country outside the middle east 240k coupes are more desirable than sedans.

Now that it is much harder to find 240ks in Australia, they generally sell for more money than before, and it's generally not worth shipping any less than three cars in one go overseas many people have given up buying and sending 240ks to Kuwait, or the Datsun graveyard as it's refered to. As a result, 240ks do still pop up for sale here and there.

so don't give up!

Also, converting an auto to manual is not a big hassle.

well yeh im not particularly fussed, coupe or sedan.. i like the coupe better though..

will definatly keep my eye out, even if it means interstate shouldnt be too much hassle

oh and ive seen the grey one.. but im still doing my research on them etc...

what are they like for tarmac rally/circuit?

    • 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.
