Someone must have taken the UAS Major service package up, and was the extra $700 thing worth it?

www.uniqueautosprts.com then click "service centre" then "major service".

Has a whole list of things, engine (elf semmi synthetic), check sensors and fault codes, injection cleaner, iridium sparks, compression test, water pump, timing belt, diff, transmission oils ect.... anyway the list is on their.

also is the N1 waterpump worth the extra $$$$, well i'm assuming it will cost extra

To me the initial package doesn't seem too unreasonable, I don't think I would spend the extra $700 though... that's all stuff I'm pretty confident doing myself :rolleyes:

From what I read the N1 water pump has larger but less blade inside it to prevent cavitation at high RPM. The trade off is worse flow at low RPM. If you spend most of your time on the track or driving at a moderate speed it should be OK. If you are in bumper to bumper traffic everyday... I wouldn't recommend it unless you have some masochistic urge to cook your engine :thumbsup:

I'd give the n1 pump a miss (costs more and not really right for a road car). But Ben (head mechanic at UAS) is excellent and very careful and thorough in his work. He built the last race engine in my car and it is going strong

"UAS Professional in-house guard rolling now available for $75.00 per guard."

it was on their website, what does that mean?

When you get wheels that are 11ty" wide and have an offset of -11ty, the tyres will tend to scrub on body work. This can be fixed by rolling your guards.

Rolling guards can be done either professionally to get a good result, or with a breaker bar on your driveway for the ghetto look :D

11ty

well i seem to be getting alot of PM's of NEGATIVE feed back instead of positive feed back about UAS, everything from refusing to fix an oil leak that was aparrently due to not doing a sump bolt up properly to cracking a head gasket that was induced by a tune with Safc2 and the timing wasn't adjusted acordingly... That coupled with my own bad experience with them a while back...

Who else has done a decent 100k log book service and timing belt change, and who was it with? I keep hearing good things about Yavus's team, anyone had it done their?

And yes its just a service, but i want everything done properly on it seeing as the car hasn't been looked after as much as it should have, and that 100k is a pretty important service that can make or break the car.

And i don't mind paying alittle more for a perfect job

Peter Hopkins at ADVAN Performance does a great job. He uses nothing but the best parts and has been tuning skylines for years now, both here and in NZ.

He charges a little bit more than most but after taking my skylines to other places that are cheap and almost destroyed them...

ei: Mercury Motorsport in Queensland thought it would be a great idea to put low impedence injectors in my R33 GTST and then dyno it for 6 hours. (Any of you who know anything about injectors and RB's, will already be shaking your heads).

Nearly fried the comp and the car ran like sh*t until I took it to Peter at ADVAN, he replaced the injectors and tuned the car beautifully.

Highly recommended!

    • 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.
