Because they do. They seem to have NO regard for the speed limits.

I was up that way this last weekend.

There I am sitting on 62 - 63 kmh in a 60 zone, and if I haven't got an idiot up my exhaust pipe, I've got idiots whizzing past me at 70+.

And I'm driving up the freeway to Newcastle, doing 100 - 115, and I 've got idiots - including P-platers - whizzing past me at 120+

So you guys have got nothing to complain about when you get done for speeding.

Oh, and if anyone spots a blue Commonwhore rego XX-777 (possibly with yellow wool 'wind-tunnel testers' on the rear window) - would you mind telling him his indicators don't work. I followed this dude for quite a few ks down the Hume, and not once when changing lanes did his indicators light up. Not even when he turned off to Canberra.

i drove to gosford yesterday and had a guy doing about 95 in the overtaking lane... i flashed (my LIGHTS) at him and he waved at me.. i drove a bit closer so he stomped on the brakes a few times.. come room to overtake him - i did... very quickly.

asshole. he had a fish (christian sticker) on the back window! shouldn't religious people be nicer and more courteous? asshole.

Yeah, lots of ppl up here have problems with their indicators not working...really shits me.  I reakon not indicating is one of the more dangerous things you can do

Yepp, I've got to agree with that.

If someone is too lazy to use their indicators, it usually means they are to lazy to do a head check. And we all know how bad it is when your next to someone and they decide to take your lane and push you off the side of the road !!!

Saw an old lady in a 4WD with the side windows folded in. Old bag nearly swipped me. Move next to her to tell her what side mirrors are and she thinks I'm giving her the finger so she doesn't look at me.

And people reckon young drivers are dangerous! :mad:

The older they are the more dangerous they are... One friend of mine has a car which lost its mirror on the passenger side (possibly knocked off by another car) and when we were driving his mum to work in the passenger seat she freaked and asked what happened to the mirror...little did she know that she had been driving the same car withouts its left hand side mirror for over 2 months....

    • 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.
    • 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.
