Now, A while ago I would have said GTR32G was the best around, but I'm not if it's still local after the sale. Reason I'm asking is I'm trying to find a couple of immaculate cars for a few features. I'm open to serious suggestions. :) Car must have the following: Decent Powah... 300+kW Look the part... Autosalon is NOT the part. Owner has to be available for about 3 hours for a shoot and also must be ok with their pride and joy being on display on in a Singaporean/Japanese magazine. Favour will also be given to cars that get real usage. i.e. circuit or drags. Feel free to post pics and get your boxing gloves on as to who has the BEST GTR in town :P R31 GTSR, R32 GTR, R33 GTR, R34 GTR, R35 GTR and of course Classic Beasts are welcome too :D *ding ding ding*
My old GTR32G should be in Western Aust by now, so no longer in NSW Can bring the R35 out for some photos if you want Matt, has some WORK 20inch rims on it now, exhaust mods, larger front diffuser. and engine bay mods are getting planed. Also can bring out DR GTR again if you want R34 V Spec II Nur factory built R1.

Superjet owns RH9GTR? I remember seeing that car about 10 years ago and absolutely loving it! Does he still frequent these boards? I'd love to get in contact with him!

That's a bit weird Matt as the car used to be owned by me with the plates GTR32X and it was silver... I think ur thinking of RH9 the purple 34.. Cause Paul has only had RH9GTR plates on that car for about 2.5 years now.

Anyways my brothers Evo is now complete if ur interested in shooting that.

Genuine Evo 2 with a pretty built motor.

I think you are getting paid too much Brian :)

GTR32G (brians old r32) is still local at the moment.

I see the owner daily.

It's sitting around at the moment, the new owner wouldn't mind doing it, or giving me the car for the day if his not around.

Pm me of you really want that car and I'll assist you in organizing it.

Hi Brian, let me know when the mods get done :) Send me some pics in the mean time, I haven't actually seen this new toy of yours yet.

The RH9GTR I was thinking of was a white R32 with about a billion nismo parts and a couple big arse snails. it might have even been an N1. Not sure. That car probably doesn't exist any more, or has changed hands a number of times since then. Now that I think about it, i think the plate was just 'RH9'.

Hey Brad, that'd be cool if we could tee something up. Is your workshop the one near the driftmob boys?

I've been asked two provide a few features for a Singapore/ Japanese mag. I know I know.... the irony of the azn's wanting. to see what Aussie what Aussie power is. I tying Its a good sign that our scene is growing to the point where The rest of the world wants to take note.

Chris, there's a contact form on my site in my signature.

Or.... Matt @ matthewEveringham dot com.

Keep the car submissions coming people. I'm not limited to 1 car and I love seeing all your rides :)

Is that exactly how your email address is written?

i dont want to send the email to the wrong account

Uwish... YES. I posted with spaces so spambots wouldn't automatically pick up my address and add to spam lists ;/

KSR Is definately on the list. :D

First shoot from here is planned for sunday. I'll keep the car a suprise for now. As i said before, don't stop submissions, I'm not limited to one car. This is an awesome thread to show off some local talent too :)

Gents,

Feast your eyes on this Beast !!

Fully built RB26 still 2.6ltr with a T78 and a triple plate clutch making a whooping

400 AWK at only 16 psi and 98 octane fuel.

Capable of making over 450 AWK at the next tune on higher boost.

Now thats street tough!!

i thought he wanted cars, not boats.

:P

jokes, jokes.

looks nice mate

I got contacted by superjet760 earlier in the month regarding some parts; I believe he still owns the R32 that is running 8's, number plate is RH9GTR. He's still around these parts

The (other) GTR with plates just RH9 was that Midnight Purple II R34, right?

Can vouch for Michael's R33, it's fat

    • I normally run with I think a 10mm, and definitely use the second handle you can add to a drill. They hurt when they bins up!   For the crush tube, once all subframe is clear, I'd try some stilsons and see if I can get it to start to twist.
    • Probably because they couldn't, because the use of the variable resistor to create a "signal" in the ECU is managed by the ECU's circuitry. The only way that VDO could do it would be if they made a "smart" sensor that directly created the 0-5V signal itself. And that takes us back to the beginning. Well, in that case, you could do the crude digital (ie, binary, on or off) input that I mentioned before, to at least put a marker on the trace. If you pressed the button only at a series of known integer temperatures, say every 2°C from the start of your range of interest up to whatever you can manage, and you know what temperature the first press was at, then you'd have the voltage marked for all of those temperatures. And you can have more than one shot at it too. You can set the car up to get the oil hot (bypass oil coolers, mask off the air flow to oil coolers, and/or the radiator, to get the whole engine a bit hotter, then give it a bit of curry to get some measurements up near the top of the range.   On the subject of the formula for the data you provided, I did something different to Matt's approach, and got a slightly different linear formula, being Temp = -22.45*V + 118.32. Just a curve fit from Excel using all the points, instead of just throwing it through 2 points. A little more accurate, but not drastically different. Rsquared is only 0.9955 though, which is good but not great. If you could use higher order polynomials in the thingo, then a quadratic fit gives an excellent Rsquared of 0.9994. Temp = 2.1059*V^2 - 34.13*V + 133.27. The funny thing is, though, that I'd probably trust the linear fit more for extrapolation beyond the provided data. The quadratic might get a bit squirrely. Hang on, I'll use the formulae to extend the plots.... It's really big so you can see all the lines. I might have to say that I think I really still prefer the quadratic fit. It looks like the linear fit overstates the temperature in the middle of the input range, and would pretty solidly understate what the likely shape of the real curve would say at both ends.
    • I got a hand held bisssel one and it's a piece of shit. Doesn't work for more than about 5 seconds. So much so that I nearly refuse to believe any wet dry vac actually works or has enough suction to clean the carpet of a car. I'm discouraged as all the good ones are $300+ for an unknown result. I saw MCM did a Ryobi video where they use this thing: https://www.ryobi.com.au/products/stick-vacuum-cleaners/18v-one-hptm-brushless-spot-cleaner-tool-only Anyone have any experience actually using a tool like this when not paid to showcase it?
    • That could very well be the thermistor, but the ECU only sees Volts. VDO don't seem to provide a 0-5 volt curve, only the resistance curve.... (or line).
    • Yes. Probably, given that there is only access from the bottom end of it, go with a drill bit. Don't start too small. 7 or 8mm is probably the right size. You want something that can make a big enough hole to do some damage, but not so bit that it clashes with the steel or binds up and breaks your wrist. A slow speed is probably a good idea too. Once the rubber is destroyed, you then have to get the crush tube off the stud, which will be the whole heat/oil/cutting exercise all over again, but this time with the need to strictly avoid damaging the stud (any further than the corrosion might already have done.
