Man sydneys becoming more americanised every damn day! arrghh australia is going down hill!!

surely the place they were being held at is insured and can compensate you in some way?

Damn mate, i remember you sent me some pics of those babies from the Japanese auctions. Really wish i could help you out but doubt they'd be anywhere near Canberra. Good luck getting the cars back, hope the people who took them are brought to justice too.

Hey... I think i called u last night... My GTR was ment to be @ hobbs Bros at the same time but something happened with the paper work so it is still @ the Docks(Thank God)... I nearly died when i heard what happened.... With all the people on this forum etc its only a matter of time till one of the low lifes slip up.... Do you think its still safe to goto Hobbs Bros? Will be spking to ppl i know n will let u know if i hear even the slightest thing. If you think u might know anything about it and you need some ppl from the syd area to help suss it out or get them back let me know

Cheers

James

Hobbs is a funny place, sometimes they remember to take the keys out but other times they didn't - for example, couple of weeks back a mate and I rocked up there to pick up his Ceffo but a R32 GTR blocked us. We saw the keys, started the car and moved it but no one questioned what we were doing...also their battery pack is highly visible so any opportunistic low lives could've been there, waiting for the right time, jump start it and drive it under their nose.

There's another place that could do this - ANJ (or is it ANK?) in Sydneham, right behind the station. Last time I've got one cleaned/vaccumed for $180 which is some $30 cheaper than Hobbs BUT it must be towed there, it is a fair hike to drive and by AQIS rules you aren't suppose to drive it anyway even to Hobbs. Cost me $60 to be towed from AAT to there and everyone's happy.

you should check out places that sell nissan parts.. any sort of jap wreckers etc.

and ask for any new stock.. eg. rb26's or R32GTR seats.. and just go snooping around.

although if they had half a brain they wouldnt sell any of the stolen parts for atleast 6 months.

I dont think that you could really track the parts. Anyone could say that they have a rb26 from their old gtr and sell it.... for all we know they could be stelling stuff on this forum...

Thanks for the support guys. Thanks Ben and James. Dont worry James your car is still there and by the way it looks really good. We did get our other cars cleaned by Hobbs Bros as they have taken a couple more security measures. I would still trust them in a way but make sure the cars are safe.

    • 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.
