One of the downfalls of the SVD club was that there were not enough people at the end who were prepared to be pro-active and get things organised. If you want a cruz then be prepared to plan a meet point and route, then post details with a bit of notice for people and plenty will come.

You have to understand that this is a hectic time of year for most people with family and work commitments, january will be better and right thru till rainy season....

Too few people prepared to pitch in and the club will die... as in SVD.

I suggest you start thinking bout a meet point!? There was also a recent thread about ideas of things to do as a group... check it out.

Yer thats fair enough and totally understand that but being a newbie here and a bit younger than most (21) if i was to say anything or try and set something up i couldnt see people taken me seriously. But i will for sure be at anything that is organised and will try and support this any way we can.

to be honest, I wish there was....... ;)

well come and meet me sum time JayMei ull see me 8 times out of 10 maybee less but u never know your luck :P

that i imagine would be a common missconception sure your a "noob" doesnt mean you

1) dont know how to read a street directory

2) cant look @ creating a thread stateing well thought out ideas with dates times (NO MEETING POINTS)

3) use copy and paste when people say i would like a PM

4) make a text document where pasting aforemention names for later referance when u need to mass PM everyone

ie:

Topic Title: Cruise to Lobethal

Topic Description: 25/12/2006

Hi guys Bob here i would like to see a show of hands who would like to come to a cruise on the 25/12/2006 to lobethal

there is a nice bakery there where we can get lunch and a park for the kids with plenty of parking

/end

something like this note the bakery bit is made up you might only know of a car park or oval see how easy it can be topic description doesnt have to include date might wish to say 'meet and greet'

i hope this gives you and others some ideas on how easy it is and please dont forget if you get stuck there are many members here willing to help

EDIT

age is of no relevance if you come across mature and willing to try, a thread title that wouldnt get looked @ is

Topic Title: Blasting Through the Hills

Topic Description: first one there wins

this 1) would not be taken seriously and 2) will get deleted as we do not promoted speeding through the hills or Anzac drag way

Gonna ask, apart from the 2 here that are still around(PSI and INFMS), are there any registered car clubs in SA? Seems some Insurance companies look upon club membership favorably.

(clicky) Sporting Car Club of SA & their V-Max section caters for imports.

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      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.

      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.
