Spotto:

Northbourne Avenue up past EPIC, black R33 GT-R or GTS-25t with GT-R bodykit with no front bar & a big arse cooler, and chromi3z about 12:30 ish

And a yellow R34 25GT-t going round Parliament House about 1:20 ish making noises not unlike my car does :huh:

Had a Nismo sticker above the left headlight, looked like it had an aftermarket exhaust

Hi Terminal, haven't been on for awhile... the gtr's been off the road... had to get a few things fixed and I was driving a hire car for awhile, you don't know what your missing till you drive a complete s**tbox.. anyway glad to be in the gtr again, will try and make a friday soon

btw, did you get your 2nd dan?

Nah i have the grading in 3 weeks. i have a comp in 2 weeks in moss vale, hopefully i don't get too injured to grade. glad you've got your car back on the road. i know what i'm missing now driving my old skyline again after having the madwagon for a year, but the wagon still dominates in style.

kool 2nd dan, i take it thats taekwondo ranking? does that mean kyu and shihan is taekwondo too? or am i just talking tekken 5?

Dan is used in most martial arts, Kyu is japanese and is used for colour belt rank, taekwondo use the term Gup for colour belt ranks. Dan is used for black belt rank. i have no idea what shihan is from, probably means master or instructer in japanese

bet you he didn't realise that ur "boring old crappy R31" has the same enbgine as he did :huh:

I bet you he didn't either :D

Also spotted a white Stagea turning off Hindmarsh onto the Parkway about 4:45pm, had the Autech bodykit, and an SAU sticker in the bottom corner of the back window

Haha damn you beat me to it, i was gonna post up that i saw you, i saw you from miles away and chased you down, thats why i made sure i caught up and gave a wave, i would have gone the same way home as you but needed petrol in Phillip, car is looking hot as always  :huh:

Heh.. yeah the Z doesn't exactly blend in to traffic, neither do 'lines for that matter :D

You scared the crap out of me going around that round-about in the inside lane, when I first saw you out of the corner of my eye. I am not used to other cars going through round-abouts anywhere near as fast as I usually do. If you were driving a comondore you would have flown off the road at that speed.

P.S are you guys still having regular get-togethers?

Heh I only was sure it was you a split second before you stuck your arm out the window, I couldn't remember how I could be sure it was you, then it hit me - R34 wheels :D

About an hour before I saw Leech I had an encounter with FoX on the Monaro highway

haha yeah i didn't think you had seen me sneak up on you so when we hit the round about i slammed it into 2nd and floored it to catch you lol.

It would have been good if we had kept going without the bloody traffic, oh yeah, i want your car :D

Also spotted me gassing it to catch up to Ewen's 33 last night on knoke av just b4 he turned up into his street, i caught you just as you turned at the last round about but i dont think you noticed me.

Also spotted a black 33 leaving the Lanyon shops this morning at 11.30, it also could have been Ewen but it may have been a bit early for you :)

Spotted a maroon R32 with red ACT plates in belco, drove past across benjamin way

I spotted this as well. Parked outside Autobarn in Belconnen, looked hot as. Same colour as mine, had tasteful 18's on it and more importantly was a GTR(unlike mine :D lol.). Took a few pics of it but didnt get time to tell him to join up here, hadn't seen it around Canberra before.

    • 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.
