Built Qulity...

Great Look even More than 10 year old R32 or R33's

Everything is electronic... tell me what other aussie V8 cars have at that time corrosponding to when skylines came out.

2pot Brakes or even big size brake disks

Electronic aircon

Electric mirrors and windows

after market upgrades....etc..etc.

I can go on and on

And what does your wife think about having to share your love with a hunk of metal? :)

She's just glad it's a car, and not some other late-model Japanese...

LOL @ Rezz....

What is Irashaimase!?

is it like random shouting? like...

Daidokoro...!!!!

Irashaimase is what shop/restaurant owners say when you enter their shop/restaurant.

Daidokoro (kitchen) is definately a random thing to shout out... you done that before have you Pva?:)

My budget had a ceiling of $20k. I started looking at mid late 90's celica... Nice looking, toyota reliable, probably handle nice. Then also at Honda Prelude mid 90's again nice looker, Honda superb build qual and reliability. But they were not enough - stock 1/4 mile not very fast.

Enter the skyline. Obsession. Mmm 187kw standard 0-100 6.21 1/4 14.4 poss wow all this and a beautiful looking car, with loads of Jap gizmos and legendary Nissan reliability (had a VL be4 50% jap of course) I was sold.

People keep saying how nice it looks. I take it for a fang up MT Glorious close the redline oh it goes nice. Makes driving an experience not a chore like it used to b.

Cant wait to get my twin dump, full 3 inch and hiflo cat shortly.

The build quality is superb i mean its 8 years old but it dont look like it someone who knows nothing bout skylines would say it looks like an exotic $60k+. Lol all for $20k. No regrets. Big fan.

1st apology to going bit hay wire...:)

and yes I shouted KITCHIN!!! once in large crowd :) hhahaha

I am korean, there are long history between Japanes and Koreans...especially more elderly persons.

I would like to discuss it why that is...

I've forgiven Japs long ago... but if I ask my grand parents. they dont encourrage it.

I dont know if you get the histoty Rezz.

anyway Wat ta shi wa kang goujin des... ;)

cheers

Joe

at first i liked it cause it just looked good ... then came the chicks ... they loved it ... they were like .. oh u drive a skyline?? sweeet :) ... for some reason a skyline just makes u look that much better :) ... u can be ugly as but as soon as u get seen in one ... you're almost brad pitt :) ... and then its the power and moddability ... u get respect on the road ... u guys ever drive in a small shit car lately?? notice how everyone cuts u off the road ... well they dont' do that to u when u drive your skyline LOL ;)

Would have to be the heritage for me. I've only been into cars for a few years but i used to think that skylines were those big boxy skyline gxe's and crap like that, r30 and 31 series. Then i started to do a bit of research and found out how the car demolished the group A series, won every race in japan and bathurst too. Was then that i realised this is a machine not to be taken lightly. It has since made its way into my list of favourite cars :), the original godzilla anyway

Da tail lights are sexyyyyyyy as!!!

Its fast, it looks the part and damn... just such a nice car. With an Rx7 and a Supra... the 3 best cars in the world have been made.

Which one tops it... duno, but i love Skylines...

    • 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.
