Hmm both Alex and I went off track excursion while instructing. Instructor fail.

Charles, I mad sure to get a couple of photos. Will find them when I get home tonight.

Thanks Eric I look forward to some pictures.

ThAt sports saloon was quick!

It was running in the top half with a 1:22.3 when it was wet at the start of the day but when a dry line started to develop other cars could put their power down and we started moving down the leader board. There is no surprise that we were prying for the rain to continue.

Yeah there were a few surprises, I was sitting in 10th on the 2nd timed run at 1:20.xx and I went in to check my new time for timed run 3, which turned out to be a 1:19.xx and I dropped all the way to 17th ROFL

i was like oh shit got some catching up to do HAHA

stand by for car behind you dash cam footage...

@GTofuS-T

Blender wont add the audio if I speed it up (it probably would if i wasn't too lazy to even try ;) ).

If i don't speed it up, it renders at about .55% original speed.

so the audio of me and Eric having a giggle has been 'censored'.

Haha that's awesome thanks man!! I swear it felt like I did 720 degrees worth of spinning though.

Edit: also the photo Ciaron got just before this shows my left rear wheel was off the road... no wonder!

Ahhhh that's when I was in the swift with my cousin and we were letting you past lol

Um, you mean my photo? That was at the top of the hill in the afternoon.

Nice photo! But Ciaron had taken a photo just before that incident.

Yes ^_^ got a little too accelerator happy

Lol mental note, next year you two are banned from instructing lol

you shut your mouth!!!

I'm 100% convinced that Eric gave me enough info to not end up in the wall by creating a 'tactical' pre-emptive spin, thus becoming an epic pussy every time I went around that corner for the rest of the day saving my life and my car. :)

Here is a dropbox folder with all my photos from the day. I will leave it up for a couple of weeks.

If you find something you like feel free to post it up here or elsewhere.

    • 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.
