no problems with power. :mellow:

Been playing some more on-line. getting hooked on the on-line play. It's hard to pick between RR7 and R:FOM. They are both so much fun on-line. I also tried out the Playstation store today and downloaded F1 Championship edition. It's pretty good too.

I might be willing to grab one or two more when I am back in Japan in January. Thinking about it anyway.

if anyone is using a PS3 on-line atm (either here or wherever) and wants to race my user name is "Beaman". You can send me a race invite in RR7, or look me up and we can play resistance too.

if anyone is really that keen, dont pay $1300 + shipping for one. I could get some more in january for about $300 less than that. which is about the same as the retail price will be here when they eventually come out here.

Bad news for PS3 fans.. GT HD has been canceled (a short demo with 1 track and 10 cars will be available in Japan only via download).. and we won't see Gran Turismo 5 until at least December 2007 in Japan, which means about mid-2008..

I guess I can just wait until then before buying the system, when the console is $350 or so. Until then I'm just going to save my cash.

lol, wish i were there, id laugh my ass off at that pimp wannabe!! what a retard, wasting $1000 just to smash it infront of people who waited inline who are getting one anyway... i could think of more things $1000 could go to other than making people :( for 5 mintues.

yes GT HD has been cancelled but they are now giving it out for free on christmas eve as a present to all GT series fans. It will be a small demo version. just 10 cars but it does have a 'drfit' event mode now :(

It's a good thing, now they can focus on GT5 instead of wasting time on GTHD. as for GTHD being japan only download, i've downloaded stuff from japan PS3 store from australia, so it's certainly possible to get it here, even if it's only touted as being japan release.

michael, are you buying one in japan? do you know if there is more available stock there yet? and where are you ordering it through?

i bought mine from yahoo-auction, there is about 70pages of ps3 :laugh: i only pay alittle more than what they sold in the shops so im happy :wave:

I thought GT HD would be the next GT5, as GT5 will be HighDefinition anyway.

Ehhh wateva, Sony needs to get their ass cracking in making the next GT, they've delayed GT Mobile on PSP heaps too, bloody annoying.

yeah sort of. GTHD was basically the same game as GT4, but with some updates. most notably in the graphics department with the addition of 1080i HD. some changes to handling and the like too i think. and a new drift mode.

then GT5 was going to be a full ground up new addition to the GT series.

yeah, GT5 will be worth waiting for. and no doubt there will be plenty of waiting to be done. if the past is a guid to the future then GT5 will be a fair way away. but no doubt awesome when it finally is released.

im the opposite, ill be buying Wii and PS3 but ill wait on the 360 until its got some good firmware.

The Software is updated all the time if you are connected online + it has the huge possitive of having the windows Media Center interface! Couldnt live without it.

I do look forward to the PS3 dropping in price however.. Going from feedback in my shop Ive found that many people are a bit upset about the price tag..

    • 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.
    • Well this shows me the fuel pump relay is inside the base of the drivers A Pillar, and goes into the main power wire, and it connects to the ignition. The alarm is.... in the base of the drivers A Pillar. The issue is that I'm not getting 12v to the pump at ignition which tells me that relay isn't being triggered. AVS told me the immobiliser should be open until the ignition is active. So once ignition is active, the immobiliser relay should be telling that fuel pump relay to close which completes the circuit. But I'm not getting voltage at the relay in the rear triggered by the ECU, which leaves me back at the same assumption that that relay was never connected into the immobiliser. This is what I'm trying to verify, that my assumption is the most likely scenario and I'll go back to the alarm tech yet again that he needs to fix his work.      Here is the alarms wiring diagram, so my assumption is IM3A, IM3B, or both, aren't connected or improper. But this is all sealed up, with black wiring, and loomed
