sup kunce

we won "organizer's choice"

which probably had a lot more to do with Hank blatantly bribing the officials with delicious bbq than anything else

no idea where we were at the end, but that isn't really the point of lemons

Hence the team that re-entered their silvia, fitted with a not-very-fresh RD28

Dale! Angie sent me a bunch of pics from the weekend, I'll get them through to you.

Yeah, I agree, I think we won on our epic BBQ - Dale even got a fkn medal!!!

I think overall (laps wise) we came around the 5th mark.

Plans are already a foot for nect year, Dale is even going to help drive!

Update on car: 
It's blowing Fuel Pump fuses like a mother, got it booked it to get towed to C-Red for an investigation. 

Then it *might* head to the body shop.

Good luck! Hopefully it's an easy fix.


Speaking of car dramas...

So I'm trying to buy parts for my Humvee. Found a bloke in America with what I want at great prices. He says he won't ship overseas and I tell him that parts only need to go to Texas. He's happy with that and keeps talking to me.

We finalise the order and agree on the price and shipping. I ask how to pay, he says he doesn't use Paypal (maybe because of their fees or he's old, I don't know), so he says I can pay with a cheque or money order. Well mate, I'm in Australia I can't send you a fkn cheque can I? I ask about the money order, I ask if that means sending the money directly to his bank account which I've done previously for parts in America, it's fairly straight forward. Apparently not! Now he won't accept overseas payments...

So apparently I have to get my mate in Texas to send him a fkn cheque (then I pay my mate obviously) before he sends parts.

Geez! If you didn't wanna' sell me shit in the 1st place, just say so! It's a $765 USD order, why wouldn't you want it!?

Meanwhile I bought my Smart Start through someone else via paypal this morning and it gets shipped tomorrow lol.

Hopefully they can fix it without bleeding you dry!

    • 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.
