How shit can they be?

I've got a set of Falken RS-V04s that probably only have 1 track day left in them (they're not legal for tread depth), and they've been sitting in my shed for like 2 years.

Where are you based?

NSW marsfield 2122. wow whats their size?

225/45 R17 or 235/45 R17 (but same size all round). I can't remember exactly.

If you want them you can have them. I don't have 17" wheels anymore so I've got nothing to put them on. They're at my parents' place in Pymble but I'm happy to drop them off.

Your best bet otherwise, if you just want some shagged R-Comps to track on so you don't destroy your street tyres, is to call up the motorsport tyre suppliers and see if they have used semis. You won't be setting lap records on them, but it means you won't be destroying your street rubber.

I got a set of 17" A032Rs from Gordon Leven Motorsport a few years ago in 235/45 R17. They were on the wear bars, and very heavily heat cycled, but they were $80 each fitted. The grip levels were probably below a decent street tyre's, but they were reasonably cheap and the construction means they don't overheat and go greasy or get a lot of squirm.

I bought these recently - pirelli pzero corsa semi's for $150ea

running onroad on the stagea, amazing grip =)

cant wait to get back to mallala

Really? I am more than happy to take them off from you. can I send you a PM and talk about the details.=)

    • 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.
