Scotty says he has a tiny bit of rubbing on full lock.

Plus had to roll the rear guards.

19 x 10 + 30 all round

You might need the Axis ride height for 20's

Yeah i read that somewhere. Do you know what size spacers.

As the others have said, 15 or 20mm.

I run 10mm on my Nismos which are 19x9.5 +40 and have no rubbing.

I don't think I could get away with 5mm spacers, nor would I try for that matter as there is not much room in there.

So I finally get around to doing a few things today.

Replacing a burnt out globe in the cluster, its only the shifter position but it pisses me off at night.

Replacing the weeping radiator. Just ordered one from Natrad $260 inc!!! Bursons wanted $465 (for the same thing). Pickup at 1pm and then the fun begins.

fan clutch has a little bit free spin, but there is no overheat problem atm. i know most people would say don't change it if no overheat problem, but i want to keep engine more cool!

so ordered new fan clutch (Shimahide branded from JP). now i could feel very noticeable strong wind under bonnet

for someone who has overheat problem, try to change the fan clutch. even though you test the stock worn viscous fan in cold and it is tight enough with just little bit free spin angle. it may have huge difference if you change new fan clutch.

good quality

no need to take out the fan shroud, just lose 4 bolts on fan pulley and make some angles to take viscous fan out.

thinner than stock one

Hook a brother up with the fan clutch ..... link?

Cheers

woohoo , got it all done.

The cluster globe was not burnt out , someone had been in that cluster before :glare: , the track on the PCB was worn away / cracked in one spot, soldered that and tested on bench all working.

Biggest issue was re-calibrating the needles as I had to strip the PCB out.

Radiator was a bit of a pain, but all done, the old top tank started to come apart in my hands, I'm genuinely surprised it had not gone bang.

One more burp tomorrow morning and a bay wash, hope nothing else breaks for a few months, I need to get started on the mods.

Got the Stag back on the road today. Hit a skippy on Easter Monday. It's sat in a forlorn state since. Picked up a complete roller and today it donated its face. Need to massage out the rad support behind the left hand headlight, but it's passable for now.

May was a big month for the ARX – finally had the head unit replaced with a single din Pioneer and Kanatechs fascia. For the benefit of Canberra Stagea owners, BDL did the install. Then a gearbox flush and off to Scotty’s Customs for a dump pipe, front pipe, cooling mod, new plugs, rocker cover gasket replacement and attessa, transfer case and diffs fluid change. Well worth the trip.

Got the following completed today ready for wheels tomorrow

- changed oil and filter

- replaced front inner passenger guard (grill due to transmission cooler in fro t of it to let heat excape)

- cleaned engine bay

- put the lower stone guards back under the front of the car

- finished securing Axis kit

- painted R34gtt front calipers black (yet to do silver 'NISSAN' writing

- placed spacer on exhaust so it clears kit70fba96b223414a91bfb5704af408dfb.jpge7176bddd3f9a300371b941f1c27eded.jpgdfb4aa956456a135d743585ef51abea3.jpg96f12d9fe38c063b4231f25877508790.jpg2a6161fa8529800f6a2d8ed588807374.jpg

yeah, my kakimoto also fight with rear bumper. exhaust shop just heat the rear muffler pipe then make a bit angle to avoid the bumper.

Mine is sold about to go to its new owner so wont be touching it.

Ok so front brakes come up a treat

    • 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.
