picked my car up at about 5pm today.. pulled over by the cops for the first time around at 9pm (no defect thank god!!)

"the reason we pulled you over is because your licence plates dont exist"... doh!! =P

mum was in the car at the time, and i just laughed.. was all good, the cops were pritty cool about it all *phew*

:P what the first day.....lol

How does it feel to drive a GTR??

this IS a wasteland.

Ah true, true! :P

By the way has anyone heard of:

"Nano-Technology Gasoline Saving Pad + Auto Booster

This set of items can save up to 30% of fuel,boost horsepower and many many more. Very easy installation."

I found it on a notice board at uni...

Has anyone tried it?

Paully,

Wait until you get a little older buddy... That back and shoulder hair begins to get a little longer; its quite disturbing when your outside doing a little gardening wearing a tank top and you have to pick fly's out that become trapped in your shoulder hair. :S

I'm wog too.. Northern

ewwwwwwwwwwww, looks like i won't be sleeping tonight :P

Would never have thougth you were a wog cubes, im southern, Nap & Sicilian.

ahh astro i wouldn't believe that if i were you.

I’m sceptical too!!! these engineering students are always coming up with some new ideas that 'work'. I'd be more inclined if there was some data behind it... or maybe if someone credible had tried it

It doesn’t hurt to ask though

Good ol' Adelaide Uni :laugh:

The Adelaide Uni Eng students have the Biggest pub crawl in Adelaide- so thats what swayed my decision. Haha

Nah, I was thinking about doing mining eng at Mawsons but I got a better TER than expected so I opted for Adelaide. I'm finishing up this yr...

Happy B'day Ben

got pics, theres a gizmo 2 mates of mine bought @ auto shops that is ment to reverse charge the fuel or something and get better performance and better mileage

Nano-technology Gasoline Saving Pad -stick underneath the petrol tank.

Its nano-particle can activate and modify petrol’s positive and negative ions, in order to increase combustion dynamicity. That sorta sounds believable...the combustion dynamics stuff

I just wonder if the benifits outweigh costs... If it infact does what it claims.

well i'm pretty happy with myself, i start working (for the dole) on Monday :thumbsup:

it's so great the guy that i saw likes Human Nature, we had a great chat about them

but sadly he's not going to there concert :wave:

oh he said if i do well he'll take me for a ride on his bike :thumbsup:

should be fun, haven't been on 1 in about 15yrs :)

Is he Gay?

and is that his push bike.............LOL

    • 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.
