Brainstorm:- I've emailed Roy and Adrian of EMG aka Express Publications about...

* organising a High Performance Magazine feature on ADM R32 GT-Rs

* holding a photoshoot of a decent collection of these "godzillas" at Mt Panorama, Bathurst

Having organised a few mag features before over 6 or 8 pages, we'd require...

* really great examples to be photographed

* someone on here who is willing to be interviewed about his vast knowledge of the ADM R32 GT-R as they exist right now. The Editor will probably fill in the history of the car as usual.

Let's hope we get a positive reply!

Hi Terry,

I'd love to see this get up off the ground. I'd get an unregistered permit for the day and take the ADM....... Hasn't really been out since the 25th Anniversary Day.

I'd be happy to be interviewed and provide all the history.

The xpose could and should cover the difference between ADM's and JDM's and then throw in my other car, V-Spec 2 and then Terry's V-Spec 2 N1.

If we could get a NISMO it would almost be a Royal Flush.

I have no doubt that if an event like this gets the coverage from a publication and participants, it would truly be very successful.

Keep me in the loop Terry, happy to help if need be.

Bob.

Thanks Bob. If approved we'll do a count of ADMs and rare R32 GTRs that can come along including interstate.

I like your idea of a comparative examination.

Your offer to be an official interviewee has been noted with pleasure.

Surely with the 25 year anniversary next year this would be something that would have to get off the ground.

I'll bring the mine along to Bathurst, just say when! Not the prettiest, and she isn't going backwards at the moment, got all her stone chips earned over the years, but still a phenomenal car.

Anyone with contacts at Nissan should get them on board as well - bring along some R35's as a marketing stunt, we could all give our opinions on how the two cars differ driving at speed around the Mountain! Just an idea. :woot:

Congratulations.......... Welcome to the ADM club.

How did you get to buy your car?

I presume it wasn't advertised as we keep a pretty close eye on what's out there are I don't recall a black car with the listed mileage being for sale.

Cheers,

Bob.

It may be worth sending the guy who's currently selling the very low km 32 nismo edition in for sale section a message incase he still has it at the time if this goes ahead or can at least get the new owner onboard? Would be good to see this happen. Any way of tracking down one of the actual Bathurst raced cars from that era and maybe even a driver of one of them? Or are both the cars and drivers now museum pieces? Lol. Surely one of the people involved with them in the super car championship would be keen to take part given the success and controversy?

Morning lads.

Break ups can be hard and this one will really hurt but I have to let her go to fund a property buy. In the next couple of weeks I will be putting my ADM up on carsales, carpoint etc etc.

Just thought I'd let anyone on here have first crack at it.

I am the 3rd owner and have put 8000kms on it in 6 years. The car has just clocked over 103xxxkm. Engine unopened, good comp in all 6. Standard apart from a hand made exhaust system that doesn't look too gnarly but sounds great. Have all the books, original leather sales folder and all the associated paraphernalia. Can had a new clutch put in 2000km ago, factory item. Belts and pumps done. Plastics just redone, airco retrofit done.

Overall in very good condition. I will email hi res images to any interested parties.

Car is in SE QLD. Offers circa $45k.

PM for more details.

    • 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.
    • 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.
