dude it's already been and happened on that actual date 5th june.

at moment me scanning the wakefield website for any open track days during the weekend.......... none at the moment.

Dammit...By the time you posted #19,it was already past the day!Ah,well...So,the question remains:WHO WON?!And how's you go,G.?

sat was THE day as not many peples there, had the track all to myself at one time.

was excellent weather (not cold, but fairly warm) had a friend teach me the 'lines' so that i could get a better time. so far i'm in the low 1:14s to high 1:13s not bad but still got a looong way to go yet, as the clutch was slipping. (i know i know haven't replaced the clutch yet) but i did get to 'bed' in the new brake system i had installed 2 days earlier, put it this way they were smoking nice 'n' good whenever i pitted in.

sun was good too (again with weather) but there were too many classes (and racers) which restricted my time on the track, (i think i went on a total of 3-4 times) had some fun embarrassing a holden 300kw monaro coupe, and one of those NASCAR cars that you can hire for the day to race. overtook both cars on the staright with the clutch screaming and revs going in the red zone, nedless to say they weren't happy. then i got demolished myself by a wrx and an mr2 they past me as if i was standing still, at that time i think the clutch had enough.

looking forward to the next meet. i'll let you know ltsjayce and the rest of the skyline peps on this forum.

i think he is mostly concerned bout 1/4 mile runs than circuit races, thus he might have to set up the car for circuit. ie: stiffen up the suspension, and anything else for it to handle around a circuit.

i could be wrong though, haven't seen or talked to him for a while.

    • 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.
