Hi all,

This is the NSW club thread about an SAU display this year at AutoSalon Final battle, Im seriously considering entering (not 100% yet though) and I think that we should get at least another 2 ACT cars to go aswell.

Your car doesnt have to be a show stopper or a power king, we just want as many nice Skyline's, Silvia's, 180's Datsun's whatever (as long as it has a Nissan badge) to come along and make up numbers.

So who's interested?

Ive never been to one, what happens, what does it cost, etc etc

Didn't I read somewhere that its on the same time as Bathurst track day? Dates don't seem to match up with it though.

Since I seem to be the only Datsun owner, the car wont be ready for it and there is no way in hell i would ever swap a Datsun badge for a Nissan badge :down::ermm:

Yeh I knew what you meant.

I went to one in Melbourne 2 years ago, the dyno event was good and there were some sweet rides there, but I found it boring without any driving going on.

I heard a rumor they would only accept ACT cars if they had Franjipani stickers :down:

bahahaha! yeah probabaly :down:

it does get a bit old after you've walked around once or twice, and there are no driving events. still good to check out some sweet cars and babes :PBJ:

they never used to charge "competitors", but this year it's about $120. we're in the process of working something out with them though.. last i heard anyway. not sure on public entry prices. should be a website somewhere...

*psst* Amaru... I'd hang low for a few days if I were you, it won't be safe around here

You obviously have not met Amaru even with Mick's guns i think the giant would have him :(

although if you get to know him a little better you will find out he is really just a little pussy cat trapped in a giants body :(

I would certainly use the word "Pussy" to describe Nick, I dont know about "cat" though.... Hehehe :blink:

P.S. You people are going to cause me to go on an SAU shooting rampage... Im serious, I will crack sometime... :)

Are you going to use the frangipani wheel caps at Auto Salon?

    • For once a good news  It needed to be adjusted by that one nut and it is ok  At least something was easy But thank you very much for help. But a small issue is now(gearbox) that when the car is stationary you can hear "clinking" from gearbox so some of the bearing is 100% not that happy... It goes away once you push clutch so it is 100% gearbox. Just if you know...what that bearing could be? It sounding like "spun bearing" but it is louder.
    • 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.
