Hey guys,

Just wondering if anybody knows how to tell if a GTR has been tuned/modified by a Mine's workshop?

My GTR just arrived. It is modified with:

HKS GT2530's

Adjustable suspension

17" AVS Type 5's

Full Mine's exhaust system including cat back and front/dump pipes

Mine's replacement boost guage in the centre console

Mine's ECU

extra guages

possibly cams

oil cooler

injectors

Z32 AFM's

Trust drag spec front mount

The Mine's ECU actually has a plaque on it - not a sticker, but a small metal plaque, and it's also numbered.

It'd be really cool bragging rights to own a Mine's modified car, so how do u tell guys?

Cheers,

Alan ;)

Well by the sounds of it ur car looks like it has had some work done to it by one of the Mines garages over there or it could of been all setup via another garage and the previous owner just wanted Mines parts or he could of installed them himself with his mates in his backyard.

Umm, that doesn't really tell me anything I don't know dude.

Thanks for the attempt anyway.

I was probably trying to get at the plaque on the ECU - does anybody else with a Mine's ECU have this metal plaque? If not, then it'd be pretty safe to say that it would be a Mine's tuned car in one of their garages.......

Cheers,

Alan :D

I'll have to double check mine, but I have a MINES 320km dash and MINES tuned ROM aswell, I'm sure it has the plaque on it

mark

As for yours, it could have been done by anyone in japan, probably not really any way to tell. look around behind the console and see if you can find anything

for me, it makes no different in anyway mine's or the bloke next door did my exhaust, gauge, injector, even bolt the turbo on.

even the car been tuned by mine's it is still nothing special (no offence at all)

it's only a mild tune car and anyone can do the same thing

Mine's is a workshop after all

if yr car been throw in 100g and the work been done by mine's, then it makes a different cos they know what they are doing at hard tune

    • Um.... This is not easy. I will have a fiddle with it, but make no promises. I think, given the explicit resistances vs temperature, and your ECU measured voltages, it should be possible to match them up. I will do that by assuming a 5V supply from ECU to sensor, find out how much current would have to flow to produce that voltage, then use that current as a .... nah f**k. That won't work. The supply voltage is fixed, but there's nothing to say that the ECU regulates the current too. Um... I dunno. I guess there's a voltage divider setup in the ECU. As in, there's another resistance between the ECU's sense terminal and ground. That way, as the sensor resistance changes, that's how they get a floating voltage that varies with the temperature, without having to control the current. Give me a minute or 3.
    • *that* is a question for chatgpt (or someone that understands maths....but I'd try chatty). Drop them the table and ask for the formula
    • Alright. Exhaust has been looked at, and booked in 'soon'. I'm not 100% convinced it's going to be as good as possible but I'm going to go with it anyway. If I get a reasonable thing that works for 10 years I mean that's twice as long as I've lived with the current one. I have a more pressing issue. I have fixed my MPVI3 (by buying a new one). Excellently, one can wire in analog 0-5v inputs to the ECU itself. I had wideband already via Serial so I also wired it in via the direct input. The idea being I can use the standalone logging without a laptop and have Wideband data in it. The other wire I thought I'd use oil temp. This is where I've gone crazy. HPTuners requires you to implement a formula so you know how much volts = how much temp. This seems relatively simple to me. However I cannot find the scale for this anywhere on the internet, nor decipher how to figure it out without removing the sensor from the car. All I know is that voltage actually goes up as temperature goes down. I am using the actual gauge, so I can see what the temp is. The signal wire has been branched off into the MPVI3. EXAMPLE: 2.68v = 58C 2.7 = 57C 2.74v = 56C 2.8V = 54C 3.06V = 49C 3.18V = 47C 3.37V = 43C I think the gauge is 50-150C. It may be more. It may be less, because I can't find it for the love of f**k. It appears all the information about the gauges I have has been scoured from the internet, but the sender is VDO 320.021 I believe the resistance chart is this How the f**k do I convert this to a voltage? Once I have a voltage... I then have to perform this transform of said voltage to show it in the scanner: https://www.hptuners.com/help/VCM-Scanner/Content/vcm_scanner/defining_a_transform.htm @GTSBoy you're probably my only hope here TEST YOUR MIGHT
    • Here’s the updated and installed muse replica nismo ones … very happy with the outcome. Eventhough I painted my whole rear end due to my rich idle lol. 
    • Hmm. I had a good look (w/o searching, because I'm not logging in) and couldn't see it either. I distinctly recall the thread, not many weeks ago. It must have been removed or perhaps put into the back section. If it was in Off Topic you should at least have been able to search it up. So if I'm not hallucinating, it is fairly decently removed.
