and as I'm going to drive occasionally, not a sponge cake to drive.

I've driven a mazda 3 a few times, and my mum's got a mazda 6 hatch... the 6 is very spongy, so much body roll it is scary... and for a car that large, you'd think that it should be able to overtake a car doing 90 in a 100 zone even when carrying 3 passengers, but it just does not accelerate at all when you want/need it to at those speeds.

But what about a cupcake?

I fkn love cupcakes...as you would have realized after seeing me!

mmm red velvet cupcakes.

yeah the new one is meant o be an improvement in ride.

that said it's prob last on the list. but does have a lot of fruit for the price..

It has a 20/25 rear timing cover and a tiny single turbo, I'm guessing it's just a 20 with 26 covers and adapter plates for the 26 cold side. It also looks like absolute shit and I don't see things going well for that CAS loom being so close to both the aux belt and the timing belt

need to repalce Katies Mazda.

short list:

Mazda6

Golf GTI

RR evoke

X1

Say no to X1, money better spent on evoque other than BMWs optional a list.

GTI always seemed a decent buy, but everyone has one... but same with Mazda 3.

Glad you had fun in the car. look forward to upsetting BMWs, subarus and evo's soon. 160kw just doesn't cut it

Crashed into a pedestrian in amusing circumstances (the guy is ok so I don't feel bad)

so in your professional opinion, dead is considered "ok" is it Dr Samartgis?

That's how the engine produces the torque to move the car

Minister of anti RB20 propaganda... I reckon you and Brisby will get in a punch-on oneday :P

Literally the only thing I don't shudder at in this engine bay is the rocker and valley covers being painted

so RB26 ITB's retrofitted to a 20 does nothing for you? or gate through bonnet?

That ain't a rb20, Looks like a gtr engine.

you idiot...

Are ur gears short leeroy? Or they like the rwd sr20's?

How much your car weigh?

yeah they're close ratio.

want to get it weighed, just waiting on friend to receive keys to access vicroads weigh bridges. but i reckon 50-100kg heavier than stock so mebe 1200kg?

Wasn't aware Rb26 rocker covers would fit on a rb20. Also appears to be running gtr injectors too.

    • 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.
