Holy shit bags! :banana:

yeah gotta love it, the media see a skyline tag and instantly its a high performance vehicle

let alone the fact its an r31 4 door...

rear does look jap, esp the 2" single tail... looks like an import

camera angle is from the angle the car entered, the front snapped off and is bent around the section that isnt visible

typical sensationalist journalism. pathetic.

oh and good luck to the kids in there, that was a hell of a hit regardless of the shoddy reporting. i think if they survive they'll be taking the bus for quite a while.

-D

well that sucks, it didnt quote what i wanted

basically in addition, the bit about the seatbelts / seats having to be removed, they forget to mention that you cant just put the bolts back in the seat belt mounting holes. they have to be welded up so that you cant use them again. seems stupid IMO

There are ways around this that aren't so permanent. If you want to know PM me, I don't what to post up in there because I don't want the SPYs to know :banana:

well thats feked!! since when hast been so FORMAL??

we're just trying to keep the riff raff out. :banana:

edit: the 31 in that story does appear to be an import, bootlid, rear door and lack of b pillar (not just cut off, there wasnt one there, period) seem to give it away.

Edited by scandyflick

lol, up early dave

agreed, is HR31, also the badging gives it away (as ive not seen anyone go to the attempt of badging an aus 4 door as a Passage GT lol

any auto elec gurus want to give me a hand. for some wierd and wacky reason, my brake lights have stopped workin on my trailer. every other function on the 7 pin plug works (parkers, clearance lights, indicators, electric brakes) just not brake lights. couldnt find my test light, so was testing with a multimeter and couldnt get a reading at the plug on the back of the car

anyone want to come and suss it out for me? either that or if ya in the area im going to be ripping whats left outta the 31 so feel free to drop by

well im still stuck in Bangkok, was suppose to leave this morning at 8am for melbourne but the f**ken airport is still closed due to bloody protestors taking it over so i cant leave until thurs morning if its open and if its not we gotta travel 4 hours to a military base at 4am to catch a flight home so i gotter take 4 days unpaid work let alone pay for extra accomaodation, this holiday is turning into a nightmare, i just wanna come home plus i cant ring anyone coz my phone was stolen so i have no one's numbers

HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

far out...if that happened in Aust, they would put you up in a nice hotel with at least 1 meal a day at the airlines expense.....happened to 3 of us in Sydney a few years ago and ended up in the Hilton overnight with all we could eat in their alacarte dining that night.

    • 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.
