sigh

got defected for

- horn not working

- rear brake light not in centre of window

- wrong tyre load rating for wheels

Would anyone have a set of rims/tyres for r32 in road worthy condition?

Going to have a chat with my dealer about this and was hoping for a backup.

Wouldnt mind buying a set if anyone has them for sale

Thanks

Patrick

Well well well.....wasn't out mate was it?

He's SUCH a FU(KING bastard, I mean with those defectable items you're looking at a top 8 spot on the worlds most dangerous terrorist short list. You're right up there with Osama! I feel a hell of a lot safer knowing you're not on the roads anymore......I mean really :P

Bit of a laugh, even the guys at the EPA reckon he's a wanker.

haha yes it was the famous cop from Knox

He was polite and informative though, although he was firm in believing the r32 was classified as a high powered vehicle.

Was driving under speed limit and all of sudden there is a undercover behind me flashing to pull over haha

Happened on intersection of stud and burwood hwy

If anyone has spare set of tyres please contact me asap

Cheers

Yep he was VERY polite the first time he pulled me over, very similar situation just round the corner on the way home from the Mrs place.

Second time he was an asshole from the word go and he hadn't even looked at the car yet :P

He told me vicroads doesnt know and that you should contact police.

He took the unlaiden value of 1250kg, which was displayed on his computer screen along with my estimate of 158kw stock.

Which made it 126kw/tonne

He said that because its only 1kw above the law, they are lenient. But if i get in accident he will fine me.

Once you get confirmation from Vicroads please forward me the email as Id like to keep a copy in my car.

your welcome to borrow my stock set. but i suspect you cbf driving to my joint :P

If i get desperate i will, cause i cant find anyone else.

Went to import wreckers, mechanics etc asking for bloody wheels but no one seems to have a set. Where are all the r32 rims?! this is crazy talk

Might talk to my tyre shop and see if they have some steelies which will fit on my car lol

Cheers

hey guys just wondering if anyone here would be kind to let me borrow a set for road worthy??? iv got tread on mine most places that i took the car to to get RWC said the rears are to low around the inside edges.

would throw in a slab for the helping party. will only need it for one day. will not abuse the tyres and if its damaged i will take full responsability for it and will pay for it.

im in Rowville and it would be awsome if someone could help me out.

    • 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.
