hi all, i know this isn't directly the place to post this, but being a problem im looking to have repaired, somewhere in say, melbourne wouldn't be my best choice.

I recently purchased an R33 knowing it had some work required to be done to it, but however, i couldn't do it myself so im wondering if anyone can point me in the direction of a place that could help me out.

My problems are the following

Power windows wont operate (passenger side works sometimes) i believe that problem to be in the relay itself, but the drivers side i believe to be burnt out (the auto on button locks down, so i believe the previous owner just gave up on that) wouldn't be such a problem if they weren't down

second problem is that the central locking doesn't work on the drivers side, so i hit the central locking and it opens passenger side, but not drivers side. (this is right from the panel on the door itself, or by manually locking/unlocking) could be a problem with the actuators in the drivers panel.

This is normal...the switch only does the passenger side door.

yeah agree with above :)

normally when you get central locking with your alarm you need buy a seperate relay (about $120ish) to put in to get the drivers side to open perhaps the previous owner skipped that.

The window relays are a pretty common problem, but actually not too hard to fix (providing you have soldering gear). There is a thread on fixing them in the DIY forum

ok so, the window is a tad more damaged than i initially thought (everything inside the door regarding the window basically needs replacing)

can anyone recommend a decent place to get this done?

other things aren't that big an issue, just need my windows fixed ><

      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.
