so, this was an interesting day

get my rego renewal for the patrol. tells me to ring them up as there's problems

ring them up

"oh, your car is defected"

"no its not"

"yes it is, 17th march it got done"

"riiiight........i got that cleared"

rang sturt. they punched it into the system and voila..........im still flagged as defected. Said i came in and got it cleared a few days after, but ive since (read: a month ago) ripped up the slip as i thought id never need it again. They just rang me (mid me typing this post) to tell me in the last 3 and a bit hours of checking the till receipts, they found my receipt and have put the defect thru as cleared in the system (finally)

what a lol

Thats why i always keep the defect forms in my glovebox, Its happend to me before aswell.

soooo ..... I bought my new car today :)

It is in the final stages of beig complied, and I will fly to Melbourne to pick it up in a couple of weeks.

Who is up for a road trip? Thining of flying to Melb late Sat 11th July returning Sun 12th July - stay overnight at sister-in-law's place/go out on the piss, then leave early Sunday morning for home.

Please don't ask what it is, and the few people that already know, please don't give it away :rofl:

Cool guys, will work out flights etc tomorrow. So can you 3 let me know if you are 100% up for it? I can 'pay' for you all via frequent flyer points if you each give me $80 (that's what the points equate to), else you could catch the red eye Saturday morning and book your own flight for $139 (cheapest fare) and spend the day in Melbourne before I fly in. Unfortunately the cheapest flights on my desired flight at 3:15pm ex-Adl are $200 :) - hence my offer to pay via Frequent Flyer points - or if you have your own feel free to do that too - 8,000 points. Think about it and let me know tomorrow 100%.

Not sure how many people I want to take .... but 4 of us might be a nice number for a bit of fun. If there is 4 though, we might have to get a hotel room .... but still we all would theoretically fit at my sister-in-laws. Will think harder about that.

Super excited about the car - it is the same colour, model and specs as the one I had discussed with a few of you, but is not the actual car I was looking at - it is a different car (obviously) from Melbourne. Much better car, for a much better deal.

I dunno about the details but I'd be happy to cruise up to the border at keith or mt gambier or whatever and meet up

Hmm, random, spur of the moment flight/road trip?

I'll see what I've got on that weekend :)

that JZX100 markII looks awesome man.

I almost bought on instead of my GTR - Was looking at them and the normal JZX100's. But imo they're still a big 4dr and I wanted something totally different in terms of driving style so thats what pushed me towards the GTR.

Few sexy jzx100's floating around fs

    • 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.
    • When I said "wiring diagram", I meant the car's wiring diagram. You need to understand how and when 12V appears on certain wires/terminals, when 0V is allowed to appear on certain wires/terminals (which is the difference between supply side switching, and earth side switching), for the way that the car is supposed to work without the immobiliser. Then you start looking for those voltages in the appropriate places at the appropriate times (ie, relay terminals, ECU terminals, fuel pump terminals, at different ignition switch positions, and at times such as "immediately after switching to ON" and "say, 5-10s after switching to ON". You will find that you are not getting what you need when and where you need it, and because you understand what you need and when, from working through the wiring diagram, you can then likely work out why you're not getting it. And that will lead you to the mess that has been made of the associated wires around the immobiliser. But seriously, there is no way that we will be able to find or lead you to the fault from here. You will have to do it at the car, because it will be something f**ked up, and there are a near infinite number of ways for it to be f**ked up. The wiring diagram will give you wire colours and pin numbers and so you can do continuity testing and voltage/time probing and start to work out what is right and what is wrong. I can only close my eyes and imagine a rat's nest of wiring under the dash. You can actually see and touch it.
    • So I found this: https://www.efihardware.com/temperature-sensor-voltage-calculator I didn't know what the pullup resistor is. So I thought if I used my table of known values I could estimate it by putting a value into the pullup resistor, and this should line up with the voltages I had measured. Eventually I got this table out of it by using 210ohms as the pullup resistor. 180C 0.232V - Predicted 175C 0.254V - Predicted 170C 0.278V - Predicted 165C 0.305V - Predicted 160C 0.336V - Predicted 155C 0.369V - Predicted 150C 0.407V - Predicted 145C 0.448V - Predicted 140C 0.494V - Predicted 135C 0.545V - Predicted 130C 0.603V - Predicted 125C 0.668V - Predicted 120C 0.740V - Predicted 115C 0.817V - Predicted 110C 0.914V - Predicted 105C 1.023V - Predicted 100C 1.15V 90C 1.42V - Predicted 85C 1.59V 80C 1.74V 75C 1.94V 70C 2.10V 65C 2.33V 60C 2.56V 58C 2.68V 57C 2.70V 56C 2.74V 55C 2.78V 54C 2.80V 50C 2.98V 49C 3.06V 47C 3.18V 45C 3.23V 43C 3.36V 40C 3.51V 37C 3.67V 35C 3.75V 30C 4.00V As before, the formula in HPTuners is here: https://www.hptuners.com/documentation/files/VCM-Scanner/Content/vcm_scanner/defining_a_transform.htm?Highlight=defining a transform Specifically: In my case I used 50C and 150C, given the sensor is supposedly for that. Input 1 = 2.98V Output 1 = 50C Input 2 = 0.407V Output 2 = 150C (0.407-2.98) / (150-50) -2.573/100 = -0.02573 2.98/-0.02573 + 47.045 = 50 So the corresponding formula should be: (Input / -0.02573) + 47.045 = Output.   If someone can confirm my math it'd be great. Supposedly you can pick any two pairs of the data to make this formula.
    • Well this shows me the fuel pump relay is inside the base of the drivers A Pillar, and goes into the main power wire, and it connects to the ignition. The alarm is.... in the base of the drivers A Pillar. The issue is that I'm not getting 12v to the pump at ignition which tells me that relay isn't being triggered. AVS told me the immobiliser should be open until the ignition is active. So once ignition is active, the immobiliser relay should be telling that fuel pump relay to close which completes the circuit. But I'm not getting voltage at the relay in the rear triggered by the ECU, which leaves me back at the same assumption that that relay was never connected into the immobiliser. This is what I'm trying to verify, that my assumption is the most likely scenario and I'll go back to the alarm tech yet again that he needs to fix his work.      Here is the alarms wiring diagram, so my assumption is IM3A, IM3B, or both, aren't connected or improper. But this is all sealed up, with black wiring, and loomed
