Not bad at all, just need to brake later :)

 

Thanks man! I've had a fair few detailed tips from a few mates who are alot faster than me. So that'll give me something to work towards next time :)

Also, I had a little fiddle this afternoon and managed to get the harness bar mounted in nicely. Need to machine up a couple of new spacers to make it fit perfectly. Although it's not too bad now.

I want to run this:

1. So I can use my harnesses safely, the bar is setup to be level with the top of my shoulders. I am waiting for my other harness to arrive.
2. So I have somewhere better to mount the GoPro, so it doesn't look like I'm filming from a potato... ?

Anyway, here is a couple of photos.

Sexy!

Are you running the same front caliper as a GTi-R?

I'm actually using A32 Maxima front calipers and rotors man. 

Twin piston calipers 280mm rotors.

Rears are a mash-up

Essentially A32 Maxima setup

Although on an N14 its not a plug and play unlike an N15. 

GTiR rear calipers with A32 Maxima caliper brackets and Ford Focus ST170 rear rotors (280mm) machined down to 278mm same as the Maxima. 

 

GTiR rear calipers are the same physical caliper as the A32 rear, just the caliper bracket spacers the caliper out.

Interesting! That's pretty cool man! 

If you get a bit more competitive I reckon have a chat to Intima Brakes Australia, they love sponsoring grass root motorsports!

I want to keep this car street registered or at least right on the border lol, hence no cage, so no full on serious racing for me.

I will have a shitload of fun doing some 'club' type track days in it though, especially with the wife on board with it all ;)

Alright guys, another parts accumulation post.

I bought myself a 4 point underbody brace from Whiteline, I'll fit it up and re-wheel align before the next track day :)

P.S

I've got a bigger post coming, it's more parts accumulation, although I think you'll like it.

Okay, another update. I have had this in my hands for some time now, although I haven't posted any images just yet, so here they are:

This is a SR16VE N1 intake manifold off the JN15 VZR N1.

These intake manifolds have a larger throttle body and better designed runners than the SR20VE, their only downfall is they are designed for a 1.6L, so the diameter of the runners is a little small.

 

I sent the manifold over the AMMFAB in the US as his work is second to none, especially his welding on cast aluminium.

The runners were ported out excessively, same as the plenum. This is the intake manifold I plan on running on my built 20VE once finished.

 

The N1 manifold have been proven in the past once ported to within an inch of their life. So I am hoping this one will be the same.

 

The plan is to have the manifold and TB ceramic coated in silver to keep it looking nice and bright.

 

Enough jabbering and time for some photos:

Oh wow, you're not kidding about it being ported to within an inch of it's life

Definitely don't kid, lol. I'm really keen to see how it performs though!

That's some nice work.

Thanks Ben, hopefully the work pays off mate.

Wow, amazing! 

Can't imagine that being more cost effective than a tank of nitrous but hell cool!

?? she's always going to be strictly N/A, no swaying me there matey. 

Definitely won't be as cost effective though, you're right.

So much this. Gassed my pulsar way back on my Ps. Dollar/hp cant be beaten.

I really love an unassisted N/A screamer ?

Unfortunately $/hp sucks quiet alot in that respect. That's why I put the N14 on a diet ?

Gas is just like the icing on the cake. A single fogger wet system is easy and cheap to setup. 

You can still have a crisp AF na screamer.... with an ace up your sleeve ?

Having an n14 before i regularly check this thread lol

    • 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.
