yeah i had a ball, learnt a lot about my car and how freikin hard it is to drive a datsun on the slide! great to meet lots of new people and i loved the battles with fellow datto's and going for lots of rides and giving lots of rides. great times! i'm keen for the next one already :nyaanyaa:

anyone get any pics or vid of the white datto in action on the skid pan? i'd be keen to seen what the car was doing

hey all,

was a sweet day. i had fun and wasn't even driving! but makes me want to get back out there ASAP!

i got a few vids. Still trying to uploading the clips of Troy (green datto) but youtube keeps failing on me :nyaanyaa:

- Sorry, not sure who this is. But they were sliding nice!

so far I've got at least one of your battles on video, it should be up some time tomorrow..(killing the connection as I rip high quality)

haha yeah i had a great time too. definately beat the 40dergee temps we had last time. and NO FLIES :nyaanyaa:

was good meeting sone new faces,

russman your welcome anytime. ill have to get a ride in your rig next time though.

After a ride in scottsman's car i now understand that grip = gtr, bloody hell that was fun. its hard to comprehend a car hooking up like that when you drive a datsun.

good times!

hey rob, reckon you could send the vid to my email. [email protected]

thanks mate.

Thanks to everyone who helped run the day appeared to run really well...

Big thanks to Al and Dave for helping me with my busted ass car... POS>..

With any luck we'll have it sorted by the end of the week.,.,.,

Last night was a bucket of fun but never again i feel sooooo SICK..

Im out

Definantly a fun event! I was a bit worried going into it that my car would be too underpowered to have much fun, but i was aided by possibly the worst rear tyres in existance and i had a ripper of a time! There were some impressive cars and drivers getting around and the atmosphere was fun and relaxed which made it great. Thanks to all who put in and helped!

I reckon it was a great combo. You dont always need 11ty kw of power.

You were doing some awesome controlled sliding in the arvo battles :P

A huge huge thanks goes out to those who helped out on the day. Without you guys, we could'nt have done it. Your help was greatly appreciated and if any of you would like an SAU Calendar, just let me know.

Saturday night was hilarious :P

I still cant believe some of you clowns came home at 6am!!! I thought Adz and I were the last ones out.

Driving home hurt :)

Also, on a more serious note.

Taco Baz called me and wants to know who took his very expensive sombrero from the corner next to the bar.

Apparently someone 'borrowed' it for the group shot out the front (I cant see it in any pics though :spank: ). If someone did 'borrow' it, or saw someone else with it, please let me know by PM as soon as you can - itll just be between you and me.

I dont care who has it (if anyone), he just wants it back.

Thanks & bring on DECA Masters!!!

    • 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
