Good luck Carl, but before you leave hellstra add 25gb to my account :D

Bit spewn am i, i went to bed last night with 1.8gb and wake up to 300mb daily allowance through net usage metre grrr i have my wifi locked down and mac address filtering on also

How much for the sil?

just bought it for 7k last week.. but its having problems.. id take 6k for it but im still trying to get it checked out, just broke atm :D test drove it few days b4 the swap and was fine and then when he dropped it off i got him to start it up and sounded all good..(he drove it from port elliot to my place) then i take it to the carwash and shit starts going wrong.. *facepalm* so depressed i shuda got it checked by raa :)

It's a CA, that in itself is a problem from the start :D

Dunno if any of you cats remembers the drama I had with my sil end of last year (and my numerous threats to burn it to the ground :) ) but there are some new developments in the story.

Turns out a mate of mine has had a dead ceffy engine just chillin at his for ages, so I was like wicked I've found a harmonic balancer to replace my seemingly fked one. Got him to make sure the one on there has the same set up as mine (with a V belt in the middle of 2 4pk belts), turns out it has the same balancer as my old 32 motor. Which is the same set up as EVERY other RB engine I've seen.

All of this leads me to belive some fking asshat has possibly whacked the wrong balancer on the front of my engine, thus the reason why it's wobbling all over the place.

Plan is now to chuck my old 32 motor's balancer on the cef motor currently in the car and see what happens. If I'm lucky it will spin true, and I'll go rip a fat skid. If I'm unlucky it will do as the one on there now and f**k around, in which case the vehicle is under threat of death by fire once again.

Whats it doing?

loud knocking noise, powersteering belt is being run on an angle :S um and io stop at the lights and the car stalls.. have to rev it up and then brake rev again and clutch down... its a pain.. the knocking happens between 1000rpm to 3200rpm through every gear!! um and it might have a leak also cos i cant even launch normally it may have a leak or its tied into all the other problems it has any1 know a mechanic with awesome diagnostic skills. i only got this car to sell and don't really wanna spend loads on it.. was only gonna do oil relocation and clean her up a little

Good luck Carl....hope you get it mate

cheers guys, the interview felt OK.. always walk out of them thinking of things that i should have said

btw steve, the bp usage meter used to update every hour... now its every 4 hours that could be the cause of your woes

wish i could catch these idiots.

Ring up, sound keen, talk some shit, get details.

Use said details to organise a good old fashioned beat down Forward said details onto Police...

... then watch them try and defect your car for the mods listed in the ad :)

Just a heads up guys a scammer had pics of my 32GTR up on carsales wish i could catch these idiots.

Had it for sale on there a while ago they must have just copied the old add?

when you see a 32 GTR for 7k it always sounds to good to be true.....

theres a story of scams like this interstate, GU IV Patrols (usually around the 35k mark second hand) going for 8k. sucks balls

Ring up, sound keen, talk some shit, get details.

Use said details to organise a good old fashioned beat down Forward said details onto Police...

there was no phone number or it could have got real interesting :)

contacted car sales and the add will be pulled within 2 hours or so they say

    • 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.
    • Nah, that is hella wrong. If I do a simple linear between 150°C (0.407v) and 50°C (2.98v) I get the formula Temperature = -38.8651*voltage + 165.8181 It is perfectly correct at 50 and 150, but it is as much as 20° out in the region of 110°C, because the actual data is significantly non-linear there. It is no more than 4° out down at the lowest temperatures, but is is seriously shit almost everywhere. I cannot believe that the instruction is to do a 2 point linear fit. I would say the method I used previously would have to be better.
