Loved the drift action all day long from the RWD lads :(

Ryan had an awesome drift all the way around the keyhole which we failed to capture on film.

Loved the 'Austin Powers' efforts of the Datto trying to turn around after the spin while staying off the dirt :D

I was already embarrassed enough looping in front of everyone then the "austin powers" effort to turn around pretty much topped it off. (not to mention that pesky gemini nipping at my heels with less than half the power!).

Was a pretty classic day. We couldn't have asked for a better day weather wise plus the viewing area was great.

how did the steering arm come off? no split pin? Did it just drop out?

It was an adjustable tie rod end, and the adjustment bit had somehow undone. it has locking nuts on either side of it...?? the thread on the inside was all clapped out.. nfi really how it came to be not attached.. just going to get rid of them.

Also - Incar video around morewell.

Was a tops day :) .....as always thanks to everyone who made it happen :laugh:

First time at Morwell and it was a fun little section of road....even if it doesn't suit a GTR very well! Was consistant all day until I found some dori action at the fish hook and then finally pulled my finger out for my last run. Watching Chris drift the Gem and the Morwell locals in the fully sik magna were two highlights :)

Glad to hear nothing got bent on the way home Ryan :P

Tell that to Aaron! He carved that place up last time we were there.

Glad to hear you had day all, and glad to hear you and your car are fine after the incident Ryan! Morwell is good fun >_<

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      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.
