Well I am now over the shock of the spoiler smash and have had time to take a close look at the new car. As well as the spoiler TNT also put some nice scratches on the car as well. They WILL pay ..make sure you NEVER use them.

Apart for this the car is good for a 6 year old car. I was in shock when I looked at the back muffler....it's huge!...and I was even more surprised when a quick look underneath revealed ..it went as far back as I could see...at least 4 inches.But nice and quiet, just as I like em.

Inside the car is a blitz boost gauge mounted on the A pilar ( have removed for road worthy)..a little clear "thing" with blue leds was siting on the dash (with wires atatched)..the lights flash in sequences when you press the button ...just a japanese decoration???.....and also there is a switch with a red cover over it that looks like a nitrouse/aircraft type switch...I am guessing it's a hi/lo boost switch...guess I find out once I on the road.

Anyway its good to be back in the club. Looking forward to metting up on sunday.

I've yet to see a high/low boost switch in a japanese car. they generally don't run turbosmart style bleed valves over there,which makes sense,as they get a proper EBC for about the price of a slab of beer more than we do for those crap hi/lo bleeders.

the switch is probably for spotlights or something that the previous owner removed before he put the car in for auction.

    • 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.
    • 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.
