I have always wondered - how strictly is this enforced?

i have let fireworks off after the weekend and nothing happenned to me..

last year i got a massive amount of fireworks from adam and eve.. we let fireworks off on the saturday, sunday and the monday nights and i still have some left.. i think it was 6 bags for around $100 or something like that.

you can also get fireworks from most of the asian supermarkets in dickson but they charge heaps compared to adam and eve

oh i love them, you will have to have a ACT license though, you will see shops pop up every where over the long weekend i love fireworks brings out the child in me :P

The boys are right. There is many places up that way to get them. You can also go to Exhibition park near mitchell. There is a few shops there that will open up soon. You need to have proof of ACT residency in order to get the permit and purchase the fireworks unless your well connected. Just change ur license over at the Gov shopfront and ur set

haha, all the cool kids buy their fireworks out of the back of some guys car. Dodgiest thing i have ever done....

Call the number of a guy I got from a friend, change of location twice before getting in his car to drive to a 'safe' location. Boot opens... Gunpowder heaven. The guy had rockets for craps sake, thats the proper gauge for firework selling, wow your prospective customer with 80cm tall rockets in your boot. That was a fun weekend, only one of our group got arrested haha

but yea, long weekend only. I'd stock up this year, they are getting more and more strict as the years go on, apparently it is illegal for the stores to advertise fireworks this year

    • 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.
