What’s the average price people pay at a performance shop for:

A 5000km service using high end oil?

Gear box, diff, brakes ect? How often?

Price for a decent set of pads?

Not after “Mates rates” price’s, need to know for a tax related thing.

Hey bro,

at 5,000k's i usually do the engine oil, oil filter and run some injector cleaner....usually check the brakes...

Repco....if ur running turbo brakes....r33,r34.... $80 for front.....$80 for rear...best price on the coast... but i would go on www.justjap.com and get them there...bendix has always pulled up well. wink wink...speaks in code to also hide from ato...lol

As far as gear box, diff etc.... diff will cost you $70 will premium oil.......gearbox around the same.... engine oil $90......

Cheers...

I'm sure that many places will provide you with a quote if you ring up and ask.

Chapmans = probably more pricey than elsewhere.

It's not relevant who really, as I just needed some an idea of "realistic" amount for my own workings.

Welcome to my world of dodgy invoice's.

For the service from a workshop ive paid around $180 for decent oil/filter/labour, everything else only as often as you need to...

Tax sux but ive had a decent return this year >_<

21 days till go until im let loose again.. >_<

Yes etax is the computer program that the ato put out. You can get an estimate of the tax refund at any stage, so it is easy to go back and "correct" anything that needs correcting. It is only final when you submit it to the ato.

etax rules substantially

last year when i had managed funds and stuff, i was able to dl all their info from the respective fund managers, straight into etax ( and then rejigged the numbers when i wa done)

etax is good i like the fact that you can go back and make changes if your not happy with your return :(

as for the servicing from a performance shop hmm the last time i went to one was about 4 years ago and it was around 150 for a service.

    • 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.
