Hey guys names Joey I live in Caboolture and this is the build for my r32 gtst, I was originally building the motor to put in my rodeo ute but later decided that a motor with all the parts I had chose to use deserved to be in a better car so I was on the hunt for an R32. After searching for a couple of months I found this (which my little brother loved).post-132812-14209711519319_thumb.jpgpost-132812-14209711631474_thumb.jpg

After a couple months of collecting parts I went to pick up my Tein super streets from Mercury Motorsports and saw this post-132812-14209711858823_thumb.jpgpost-132812-14209711957662_thumb.jpg

And after about 30 minutes of talking about it with my little brother he decided he was going to buy the black one off me and I would buy the yellow one so It got put at a tow truckpost-132812-1420971261881_thumb.jpg

Ok so after a couple of days owning It I pulled the old coilovers out and put the Teins in

Next I started pulling the existing engine and gearbox out which only took about 3 hours to Pull it all outpost-132812-142106466379_thumb.jpg

Now the engine was ready to be sent off to be machined so that everything was and good and better got a couple of pictures while the machining was being done, the block was bored, honed and acid bathed an the crank was balanced and a crank collar was fitted. The original crank that came with the block turned out to be bent but I luckily found one quickly and it pretty cheap.

The machinist cleaned up the ports, put in new valve springs new retainers skimmed the head a little and cleaned out the lifters.

Ok so found the photos of the intake manifold, exhaust manifold and turbo :)

As you can see I have went with the plazmaman plenum, throttlebody and the black plazmaman fuel rail. Exhaust manifold is a t3 single entry 6boost and the turbo is a GTX3582r with a .82 rear housing

So done a bit of work on the car over the weekend, we mocked up the surge tank and my external fuel pump only took a photo of the car on the hoist though, but will post some pics of where the pump and tank are sitting as we aren't putting it in the boot.

I went with the aftermarket industries under car surge tank.

Also got the injectors and fuel rail on and walbro intank put in aswell.

I have decided to use the siemens 2433cc injectors so I don't have to upgrade.

    • 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.
