I like to thank theo for "Misleading" me when i bought my skyline from brisbane street machines.

luckily he sold me warranty which paid for most of the problems i had.

I would REALLY like to thank all the guys and gals on this forum for arming me with the information to make a better choice next time. As well as the info to get in and work on my car myself.

theo, thanks for making s.e. qld proud for having one of these fast gtr in australia that is still driven on street :(
I'd like to thank Theo for providing me with a blown rb20det years ago to help me build my NA+turbo monster. Without him being the only bloke that didn't say "don't do it" I probably never would have stuck with Skylines.

I'd also like to thank Theo for breaking out at Jambo so us slow buggers got some more runs in :wassup:

Whats the problem with someone thanking sponsors for all the work they put into someones car ?    I think some of you are just jealous that you don't have the brains to build something like that yourself

Not jealous just amazed that someone can build such a good machine from the misfortune of others. Why thank sponsors when the car buyers (probably a few people here) actually payed for the car and alot of whats on it; and they are the ones reading this...

Wow its a fast car, personally my self respect and dignity is more important than a car.

That said; anyone could build that car with the equivelant money and sponsors, weather or not you could drive it properly is another question :headspin:

Yes its true that the cars they sell are way, way over average prices.. but lets not forget that these guys have a lot of overheads compared to when you import personally.

Especially when you have to consider that most of their cars sit on the lot for a very long time, when they do sell the car they have to have a lot of margin or they'll go out of business.

Some people like the convenience of buying frmo a dealer because you can have the car straight away and there is a warranty, but other than that the person should know better in the first place.

I remember walking into a certain car yard in brisbane *cough* two years ago with an ATM bank statement well into the six figures after selling a business and looking for a new car. I was pumped to buy an R33 GTR, and I couldnt even get into one for a test drive to see what they drove like because certain car sales people where too lazy to show me one and probably thought I was too young to have any money. The guys where impossible to deal with and didnt want to know me. Not a great business attitude.

And knore: 'anyone can build a car to go that fast with enough money and sponsors', theo has acheived a lot more than what most people with money and sponsors have been able to do.

With bitching aside, Congratulations on getting into the 9s on Federals, theo, respect for that.

I own and build the car myself. The car is not owned by Brisbane Street Machines, I bought the car from here. I work here i don't own the place. I thanked my sponser on the site because most of you want performance parts and if these guys can look after me then they can look after you at the right price to. I am sure all of you would like the go fast parts at the right price

Regards Theo

:)

Just remember that we are the only 2.6ltr ever in australia to run a 9 second pass

Care to share your experience? I have yet to buy car from street machines, But Theo was more then happy to talk GTR’s and performance parts forever and a day.

I know where I’ll be buying my R` from.

Josh.

    • 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.
    • Nah, that is hella wrong. If I do a simple linear between 150°C (0.407v) and 50°C (2.98v) I get the formula Temperature = -38.8651*voltage + 165.8181 It is perfectly correct at 50 and 150, but it is as much as 20° out in the region of 110°C, because the actual data is significantly non-linear there. It is no more than 4° out down at the lowest temperatures, but is is seriously shit almost everywhere. I cannot believe that the instruction is to do a 2 point linear fit. I would say the method I used previously would have to be better.
    • When I said "wiring diagram", I meant the car's wiring diagram. You need to understand how and when 12V appears on certain wires/terminals, when 0V is allowed to appear on certain wires/terminals (which is the difference between supply side switching, and earth side switching), for the way that the car is supposed to work without the immobiliser. Then you start looking for those voltages in the appropriate places at the appropriate times (ie, relay terminals, ECU terminals, fuel pump terminals, at different ignition switch positions, and at times such as "immediately after switching to ON" and "say, 5-10s after switching to ON". You will find that you are not getting what you need when and where you need it, and because you understand what you need and when, from working through the wiring diagram, you can then likely work out why you're not getting it. And that will lead you to the mess that has been made of the associated wires around the immobiliser. But seriously, there is no way that we will be able to find or lead you to the fault from here. You will have to do it at the car, because it will be something f**ked up, and there are a near infinite number of ways for it to be f**ked up. The wiring diagram will give you wire colours and pin numbers and so you can do continuity testing and voltage/time probing and start to work out what is right and what is wrong. I can only close my eyes and imagine a rat's nest of wiring under the dash. You can actually see and touch it.
    • So I found this: https://www.efihardware.com/temperature-sensor-voltage-calculator I didn't know what the pullup resistor is. So I thought if I used my table of known values I could estimate it by putting a value into the pullup resistor, and this should line up with the voltages I had measured. Eventually I got this table out of it by using 210ohms as the pullup resistor. 180C 0.232V - Predicted 175C 0.254V - Predicted 170C 0.278V - Predicted 165C 0.305V - Predicted 160C 0.336V - Predicted 155C 0.369V - Predicted 150C 0.407V - Predicted 145C 0.448V - Predicted 140C 0.494V - Predicted 135C 0.545V - Predicted 130C 0.603V - Predicted 125C 0.668V - Predicted 120C 0.740V - Predicted 115C 0.817V - Predicted 110C 0.914V - Predicted 105C 1.023V - Predicted 100C 1.15V 90C 1.42V - Predicted 85C 1.59V 80C 1.74V 75C 1.94V 70C 2.10V 65C 2.33V 60C 2.56V 58C 2.68V 57C 2.70V 56C 2.74V 55C 2.78V 54C 2.80V 50C 2.98V 49C 3.06V 47C 3.18V 45C 3.23V 43C 3.36V 40C 3.51V 37C 3.67V 35C 3.75V 30C 4.00V As before, the formula in HPTuners is here: https://www.hptuners.com/documentation/files/VCM-Scanner/Content/vcm_scanner/defining_a_transform.htm?Highlight=defining a transform Specifically: In my case I used 50C and 150C, given the sensor is supposedly for that. Input 1 = 2.98V Output 1 = 50C Input 2 = 0.407V Output 2 = 150C (0.407-2.98) / (150-50) -2.573/100 = -0.02573 2.98/-0.02573 + 47.045 = 50 So the corresponding formula should be: (Input / -0.02573) + 47.045 = Output.   If someone can confirm my math it'd be great. Supposedly you can pick any two pairs of the data to make this formula.
