Intercooler is in...I am sore and not happy with it but it is in good enough to tune the car with then I can do Pretty later. Oh and she is now 3" all the way through.

Edited by RandomHero83

Yeah when the car comes back from it's tune (giving peter at RPM my business like I said I would 3 years ago) she's off to option 1 to get some BC Racing V1's as the HSD TT's are out of stock.

Not sure if Autoshop is going to come to the party with paying some of the cost for the new shocks I'll chase that up and report back, Be f**ked if I'll let em put 2nd hand shocks in my baby just to get it out of statutory warranty period tho.

And for the people who have yet to learn this we are doing our weekly meeting at Fatsta Pasta Morayfield (google it for address) 7-7:30 pm start till whenever everyone is over it.

We will have a few non Nissan's this week I believe so the meets may take on a more general JDM feel on occasions which should bolster our ranks and also give us some people to convert to the RB way of thinking.

So Come on down and join in the prattle about skylines and cars in general.

We will have a 200sx I believe and a appearance of probably one of the most interesting cars I have ever seen (all the work is custom done by the owner).

The BC's are running me $1500 Fitted.

Coilpack's arrived today and will be fitted before the tune as peter want to check out the plugs pre tune and make sure she is running well before powering her up.

Haha think mine may need more than polish... Poor baby's been in the wars lately, but she's gonna come out the other end better than ever. Nissan's arctic white, with blue pearl in the clearcoat. Cant wait to get started on it :)

yeah Wednesday nights, last one was a fasta pasta but i believe we are doing carseldine centro (right at the first lights after the bruce at beams road) again next week, and theres a few 32's getting around. i got a black 32 (045JHT) and random hero had a white/black one till recently

Feel free to drop by next wednesday around 7-7:30, we normally sit around infront of Pizza capers and talk cars.

Alright sweet, ill def be there on the weds as long as the gf is working ^_^

my commodore needs panel work, but when i drive it i get withdrawls from the skyline, so no luck there haha.. i only have those small divets over the car, where small rocks interfere with my driving

Welcome Excuses.

So I spoke to Autoshop today and they agreed to give me a cheque for $300, Then 15 mins later they called me again saying that they were not sending me the cheque anymore as the mechanic has ordered suspension for my car (without even looking at it) and thus they can't justify the expenditure of supplying me with the previously agreed amount. I have since sent them a detailed Email listing all contact and what was said during this contact and They are now failing to respond. David the sales guy has been helpful but the owner just seems to keep fobbing me off rather than having a conversation and sticking to the inital agreement. I'll leave it over the weekend and see what happens next week if they haven't given me a desire result by then I will go see them on the saturday.

Thanks m8^

Could possibly read up and see what your issue is, but from what i have gathered something happened to some shocks u bought? They wont pay the costs for the new ones?

Brought a car from a car yard and the suspension is rooted...bottom line they are dicking me around.

My life is so boring when I am on call, The money is good but man not being able to drink or go out is lame.

Entertain me

    • 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.
