Matt, are you a rich mother f**ker that owns Wooten?

I don't think it would take that much coin, its a bit of a hole (sorry matt :-)

Thatll be 3 34 gtrs and 4 GTTs?? GTTs still dominating!

At least were multiplying lol.

Adam - please provide pics :-)

Ant, As for buckets way, it's been a few years since i've driven it, but it shouldn't be any worse then the lakes way and my gtr doesn't bottom out on that so it should be all fine. I'll make some phone calls over the weekend and see if someone can give me a condition report.

HOW DARE YOU FORGET ME JARRAD!!!!

hahah

im keen as for a cruise in next few weeks, all i need is someone to offer to drive my car (looking at you matt till yours is all sweet again)

if not ill find someone hopefully if not ill get the cefiro fixed and tag along at the back :( haha

Nah buckets way is ok, drove it in the gtr not that long ago, I meant the road off buckets way that was outlined going to buladelah. Just on steet view looks like pothole cover up after pothole cover up.. Could be too bumpy but m really not sure?...

ill drive your car chris, but i have to drive my car too, so i can either drive each car 5 metres then get out run back to the other car, drive that 5 metres and so on.

or you could convert your car to left hand drive, and i could have both legs in the window with my foot on each accelerator.

may need help with steering and clutch/brakes but im sure its safer then a p plater driving it!!

hehehe.

ooo very nice mate! love the stock look :D

how many kms are on it?

That seems like an idea hey :P

that would have to be atleast 50x safer then letting me drive :P

nice 34 T4NK very keen to see it on a cruise or meet soon :D

yeah thats the one i was talking about sorry. but yes, pot holes have formed in pot holes on that road

Son of a ........ :dry:

haha well i am carless, and you are driverless! We both fail and both win at the same time :w00t:

There are a few rough roads out there but nothing too severe mate, happy to take a run up and check before a cruise as its not too far from home....

I dont have great pics of her yet but from my phone this is what i have

Looks good man! :worship:

You sure you aren't describing the buckets way with pothole cover up all along

I know it's bad enough in the truck going along but if you think it's fine then I'll add another option that instead of turning off keep going and just north of Stroud turn onto Stroud Hill Road and cut along to Dungog.

The road starts out at 100 and nice sweepers but once you start the climb would be brake power out in second to the next corner and brake again with maybe a touch of third gear on the short straights

If you're really game you could let my wife drive it

She keeps telling me how she is a better driver than me

    • Hey guys, I’m a veteran detailer with years of hands-on experience. I’ll be sharing quick, effective detailing tips to help you keep your Skyline (or any ride) looking its best. Got a question? Fire away!
    • I guess when I say it's a POS I mean.. the solution and the stuff has the capacity for maybe... 1 spot. You know, as a spot cleaner. What I really *want* is the ability to do an entire car, all upholstery, all carpet, mats, all seats, door card inserts, A pillars, roof liners, etc. In one go. I get lured by all the jank that comes out and think "I'd like to be able to clean to that degree"
    • I've got one (not the car one, the domestic spot cleaner one, which is basically the same jobbie) and have driven it hard for hours and hours at a time. Grimy sofas, 6' floor rugs, etc. I'd blame your specific example rather than the whole category. I haven't used mine in the car, because.... you know, it's my car. So there is no-one else's ball sweat in the driver's seat, there's no kid food/drink spills or hand prints inside because they've never had an opportunity to put them there. You know, basic, standard Skyline rules.
    • 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.
