OKAY.

Anybody in Melbourne who really really needs their guides today, please call me.

I have pulled a favour at the subbies and he's cutting the panels for me right now.

Daz and Matt are coming to pick them up this arvo and if anybody needs one, for circuit racing or Auto Salon, please let me know ASAP so I can bend them up this arvo.

Call me if you need to.

I can wait til next week - no need to bust chops, I am sure my car will survive.

But if its not a hassle I can also pick up this weekend - but its not urgent for me mate :D

Its up to you Pete!

Ok after breaking two ring spanners I managed to get my guide on. Fits very nicely and looks great. Sidchrome tools definitely worth the price as a side note.

Will see what sort of temp improvements I see over the weekend.

Thanks.

I'm glad you like it. I think they all came up quite well.

Especially since I trial fitted every single guide to my car.

Anyway, take a photo for the guys and post it up.

Also, could you please give me a trader rating. Thanks.

And for those with Standard Bars and AFtermarket bars, here's the story.

The subbie who are cutting the bars were going to do them Friday afternoon, but as Friday's go, they didn't end up doing them.

They will be cut early Monday, and I expect to be able to ship them by Tuesday afternoon.

Sorry to Matt who drove all the way out to collect them.

Let you know Monday when they are going to be ready.

NISMO BAR PEOPLE

P.S. I will also be playing around with my nismo guide.

You can see on the guides you have that there is a section which ic cut out but unbent.

This is for later modification to force more air into the intake.

I didn't want to mees around with yours as I have a lot of playing to do with mine before I can finish it. Also, there's a good chanch that when I try to bend mine it will kink somewhere and I didn't want to damage yours.

When I do complete the mods, I will take heaps of photos for you all.

:D

Didn't fit. Well after buggerising around for a bit chopping off two little bits that were stopping the thing fitting on, then accidently cross threading one of the bolts (which stuffed the bracket not the bolt) I went to shut the bonnet and it wouldn't shut. I even tried sitting on it but no go.

It seems my bonnet has some bits on it that yours doesn't Bass. Not sure that I want to pull them off.

Serious?

Can you take some photos of the bit that your bonnet has please?

What little bits were stopping it going on?

I took some photos but haven't had a chance to up load them yet. Will do that tonight when I get home.

It's probably easier if I circle the bits on the photo before I post it tonight.

SHIT. I did't realise that his was a four dorr, but I'm not sure there would be any difference.

Having said that, I do remember a thread about ylwgtr's car and that he had a four door radiator support or something.....

Maybe there is a little difference.

Bugger.

4 door shouldn't be any different from the firewall forward.

see where you have put the foam stuff... I have these rubber flaps that hang down a little bit.

Ah, right.

Maybe they are factory attempts at the same idea??

If there are flaps there, it forces air to be pushed down underneath the radiator support.....

I guess.

does the nissan FAST software show car components... if it does,, it might show all the rubber under the bonnet,,

i don't have any rubber flaps!! and mine is a series II ,, talk about cost cutting bye nissan.. can someone post pics of their bonnet,, i might go to nissan and get some rubber flaps for the bonnet,, just need to know how many there are meant to be, and location,,

atleast i have the bonnet lining,, sheesh!!

Ok here is two pictures. The red circles are where I had to modify. The middle one is because once the guide was on I couldn't get a finger under the latch to open it. The one on the right is not the same as the bit on the far left as it should have been but that's no big deal, I just cut it off with a hacksaw.

The pic of the bonnet is self explanatory really. The rubber flaps are held on with a bit of metal and so when you add the bit of rubber attached to the bonnet to the metal holding it on to the rubber that normally hangs down but can't because of the air guide it's all about 2cm thick.

    • 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.
