the natro ones will beat a natro skyline, but that is beside the point. the main point is that the dash looks like the cockpit of a 1950's plane that has been butchered to fit in a car.

I've seen one butchered further to fit into a VL and covered with diamond quilted beige leather.

I dont mind the interior on supras ... their tiny though, i was going to go for one of them but the skyline had lots more room .. not that thats an issue with my midget size but its alot easier to get in and out of especially in a tiny and tight garage like mine :)

Rocky auto in Japan have built a 26/30 with triple webers making just over 300hp

but these projects should only be for the obsession of building a ridiculous n/a RB. The results can be cool but your wallet suffers soo hard.

If you wanna be a sneaky P Plater might i suggest a company in the us called STS turbos. just dont blame me when the cops pull you over cause your n/a skylines exhaust sounds like a jet turbine :P

You can legally put something like a 6L na motor in a skyline, does the P plater rules say anything about a big NA v8/six ? If you got say a 5.6L nissan V8 out of some massive truck that is too heavy to be on the banned list, could you get away with that?

edit: Perfect choice of car to put an rb30de in, being as they came out with a 2.6 or some people put the 2.8L motors in, a newer 3L twin cam really suits it. NA RBs usually sound like dogs balls as well so it sounds surprisingly nice, might be the cam they are using.

Im in QLD so im not really up on the p plate laws of other states. but i wasn't aware of any states allowing any engine swaps other than engines that came optioned for that model. ie:you can put an RB25DE neo out of a 34 into an R32 because R32 were optioned with 25's in some models.

You can put any engine in you want providing you engineer it, there are however engine size limits. Something like 4L turbo for an R32 and 6-7L NA

you can go read the relevant ADRs for it, there are also engine swap forms which show what you can do legally.

In QLD you are not allowed any engine mods that require a mod plate. a conversion requires a modplate.

Oh right you were talking in regards to P platers, I thought you were talking generally, my bad.

Yeah I suspect it is something similar in other states as well, anyway getting off topic. :)

    • 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.
