I attempted to plasti dip my chrome spoiler. Using Armor All custom shield. The clear creates a huge cloud, dropping particles all over the car which dry milky.

My car now has little rubber spots over every inch (except the masked areas) AND it came out like shit on the spoiler. Useless product, buy Plasti dip instead.

Varrstoen are in the same book as Vossens and rotas. I wouldnt even wrap my garden hose around one.

I know about Varrstoen and Rota's, but what's the issue with Vossens. Are they a cheap knock-off too?

They come out the exact same factory as lenso wheels and charge x2 as much. Prone to breakage aswell. Avoid at all costs.

Hi mate I mucked around with the same product. Just use Septone Wax & Grease Remover to get rid of the dots or unwanted dip.

Aly, What wheels are yours? cant really see from the thumbnail pic but looks nice.

Vossens aren't even bad.. but if i was gonna go concave i'd grab some SSR Executor wheels or a sweet set of DPE wheels.

Hey Seano, where did you get your vertini's from. I like there drift wheel as well. Just looking around at the moment.

Wow, didn't realise. They seem to be all the rage on myg37.com...

I've got Rays TE37SL's

Nice.. I like those and GT-S.. wish i could afford.. hehe

Thanks for the tip mate i'll check that stuff out tomorrow morning, I was so pissed at myself. Pitty some damage is already done from rubbing it off.

Nice Nismo bumper and billet grill : )

cheers mate, had to get the Nismo bumper repaired to after the sister cracked it -.-

Looking good mate, can i ask how much it cost you for the colour change?

yeah wasn't really a colour change but cost me $1600 to repair quarter panel and cracked bumper and side skirt, I had him repain 3/4 of the car pretty much which included left quarterpanel, left door, both side skirts, both fenders, bumper, bonnet, shark fin and had him touch up around the rest, included a full polish and buff

Installed some gauges:

Gloss Black vinyl roof:

Started my Xmas project, matt dark grey vinyl wrap:

The matt grey is 3M stuff and the quality is so much better than the no brand black on the roof, will probably re-do the roof with 3M when I get time. If you are thinking of vinyl wrapping go with a quality brand.

V Spec Performance, they're on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/vspecperformance

But it is authentic Chargespeed so it is not cheap however if you were to buy a copy from the US and then pay for freight on top, there is not that much difference in pricing

Metra double din kit! Y U NO BUY STAGEA DOUBLE DIN? Im sorry but they just ruin the dash, theyre not nice compared to OEM. Spends lots of money doing other things and cheapens out on metra dash..... Tsk tsk tsk

    • 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.
