well got defected last night for the following:

1) Pod Filter (only got a heat sheild around it, will wack a lid on now)

2) BOV

3) Exhaust modified no report (however it should be under 90dB)

4) Modified bonnet lid no report (CF bonnet)

5) Reverse lights not working ( got the reverse light switch indicator in my garage, need to put it in)

6) windscreen washers not working (had no fliud)

IF any1 can PM me a place to clear the defect without me having to mess aroudn taking the BOV off, or swapping the bonnet around ( i have the stocker in my garage) as i am going to melb for work halfway through next week and wont have time, it would be greatly appreciated...

Has anyone had any experience with a friendly engineer, who could do a report for my car.... preferably 1 where he could cover my bonnet, however i realise the issue with CF bonnets.

Thanx and all help appreciated :)

eeek.

Man, whenever I hear of a defect, i get scared. hasn't happened to me yet, although I did drive past a defect station a few weekends ago, on the pacific highway near the F3 of all places.

I was tucked in behind a bus, as a friendly Taxi driver flashed me a warning.

good luck with clearing it all Susp., let us all know how u go, as I'm sure I'll need the info sometime soon.

Just out of curiosity, where did it happen?

Can't really help, but points 4 & 5 seem a little rough. Technically speaking, I guess each point mentioned could be seen as a defect, but they must have really had it in for you if they went to the effort of checking all those minor little things...

Good luck getting it all sorted.

Well its only fair that club members get the benefits - im sure you understand

Without listing names and numbers, which would defeat the point, there are several places listed with engineers on staff who can, and have helped out SAU'ers before. Price guides included.

I would tell you the names myself, but its just not fair to paying members - sorry

Im not an engineer, so i cant really answer that

The thread includes names and numbers of engineers aswel as price guides, not a list of what they will pass and what they wont

Im sure when some of the members who have been through this see this thread, they will help you with specifics, but like i said.....im not an engineer

    • Everyone I know with a90 supra at time attack aren't having issues with 3-5 fast laps so far and one is decent powered one too. Saw a k24 swapped 86 with a 8hp70 and big slicks and aero which had no drama's at QR and Manton Park. I've stuck a 25 row cooler in my setup with 8hp45/50 in the hopes of keeping the oil cool as I plan on some racing next year that 20-30min sessions. I've also geared my car so won't be using 7th and 8th gear too. @Dose Pipe Sutututu just needs to get that samsonas in already and have that tassie guy fit a head and rev it too 11ty thousand rpm. 
    • My embedded systems thoughts have me sitting with GTS on this. Variation between same phone hardware, should be small. However, the internal "intensity" or "volume" amount that say Google passes to the app, will be quite different, as the underlying hardware will be passing different levels for the same volume to the Google OS. Until the app creator has had each individual phone, and set benchmarks and calibrations for each, the amount of error can be quite huge.   It can even be observed by using different phones, recording the same noise, and then playing it back, they end up soon ding different. A big reason for it, is even the different types of mics used in phones have different responses, and different frequency ranges. Then you need to get into the DSP, and the variations in those, their sample rates which then effect their frequency range, and then the quality of the DSP, and what type of hardware conversion they do to for the ADC within the DSP. Oh, and let's not forget at the low level phones are designed to cutout loud sounds. It's one of the reasons they suck in really loud environments (eg concerts). The louder you yell, the more you'll get cutout too Note DSP is Digital Signal Processor ADC is the analogue to data converter. I don't have any real data on what the variation would truly be, however, chat GPT says in general, their output is typically between +/-2dB to +/-5dB of what you're really measuring. So realistically, anything from 4 to 10dB variation is possible even with the same devices.
