yeh it was raining. lol i went home and slept. reason as to why im up now. ill swing past after work tomorrow pending pickles...

honestly i wouldnt port it.. wouldnt want the same problem that ended up happening with Vartis' head. f**k that

looking good scotty, how long til your done i want to take a ride in the great white whale :yes:

on another note i made my car SLOWER!...............with a set of Grex Alcon callipers and discs!! ;)

Installed the apex-i cat back I got from ross... Not really happy how it sits. I feel it could stick out about 2-3 more inches but it will do for now. Ill adjust it when I get the rest of my exhaust done.

Fitted front & rear Whiteline swaybars & rear links today (thanks Dale!) - will fit my new SPC rear camber & toe bolts next week & Superpro front camber & caster bushes as soon as they arrive (thanks again Dale!!!)

Car sits about one mullion times flatter with the new bars & would happily crack it sideways around sharp corners under a bootfull of power if it wasn't for the lack of LSD.

Highly recommended mod in the unlikely event you haven't already heard about it.

they look good dale!

Hopefully they'll look even better once they've been coated. :thumbsup: Getting a coat of deep black, and then a coat of 600deg clear to finish off.

Do the GT-T calipers bolt up to the standard hubs w/ standard discs?

They bolt straight up to our hubs with the added bonus of M14 mounting bolts (as opposed to 12mm on R32 GTR & R33 GTSt).

You need the matching 310mm x 30mm GTt rotors.

Looks like it's worth the effort then Dale! Easy solution (if, of course, you don't strip and rebuild/repaint!)

Was less pissing about than I was expecting actually; I had less trouble getting the pistons out of these than any caliper I've ever done.

I chucked them on really quickly in the workshop today, to see what they look like; I'm dying to get them finished now!

Pics once they're done.

OK, so after I bought the new front bar I did a trial fit of it to see how it sits compaired to the old one.

I'm also in the process of making up some blanking plates for the LED indicators supplied with it. Below is a pic of the LHS blanking plate partially completed.

Why not just incorporate it into the stereo?

Ian, new front bumper looks heaps better!

Huh? It is incorporated into the stereo...it uses the factory head unit and speakers.

If your asking why I didn't buy a BT enabled headunit instead... I don't want to spend hundreds of dollars in parts just so I can fit a single/double DIN unit that won't do what my phone and a $99 WDTV can do. Know any headunits that can support NTFS? I'm sick of being limited to USB sticks for storage.

How does it connect to a head unit for music playback, Is it RCA or via the radio?

It can play back music via BT A2P streaming - the unit connects to the factory system via RCA. I didn't enable it since the AUX in will be used by a WDTV unit.

    • 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.
