my question is every company you deal with have a customer standard mission statement and they are accountable for there customer service

it seems the po po have no customer service training at all

yeah yeah i know they see dead people and all that but if i get a little heated in my workplace i get pulled up and dealt with

i dont realy have any point though just like a toyota aurion

If you had to drive a Holden or Ford around all day you wouldn't be happy would you :(

Go to Logan and see how nice they treat you there..........I hear the attitude of Logan police to modified car owners and just generally are the worst......If your dealing with scumbags all day everyday you would find it hard not to become jaded......

I dont think things getting heated in your workplace compares to being a police officer.......

There are good ones around but their usually the ones that drive past and dont pull you over, so you dont get to see them......

sleeper FTW.

I got pulled up once, like 4am. cop wanted to look at the turbo (why is beyond me) anyway long story short poor fella placed his hand on the hot end of the dump pipe...yes it did suck to be him that day, no it didn't smell like bacon.

there's a cold end??

there's a colder end but its still nice and toasty.

still funny though

yes i see your point

i just feel if there letting there emotions rule there job .......maybe there not the best possible staff the police have working for them.

ive often been harassed by the po po due to having some "interesting" family members so ive dealt with them on and off for quite awhile and i myself may have developed a scewed point of veiw...

but i just feel there should be a minimum standard of operation and they should be mentaly capable of restraining there emotions and carry out the core of there job.

sorry if i have hurt any of the police reading this but im just a guy that has an opinion :)

cheers

I do feel that we are targeted unfairly sometimes but raw emotion is necessary i believe in a job like that. I think its the instilled hate for modified cars that is unjust. The other day i had a car following me for a fair while. We had a late model 380 go flying past at least 90k's in a 60 and they still decided to pull me over for a license rbt and quick substance check of my car. Surely the speeding car was more of an interesting target not me who had been putting round at about 5 under the limit all day.

The perks of living in surfers I suppose. I would have to say that I get picked on in my civic as well. Not as much but because it has a kit it’s totally a fully sick hoon machine.

I work graveyards in surfers and know a lot of them personally and need to call them occasionally. I hold a lot of respect for police and wouldn’t do their job for twice the pay. If it wasn’t for them I would say that there is a good chance we probably wouldn’t have our cars or home appliances as they would have been stolen long ago. Just wish they didn’t get trained that an exhaust is the root of all evil. :)

PS id never venture down to the spit unless i was ready to de reg my car and make it a track car. As striker said. Going to the spit/hot spots in a serious car is just stupid.

      RB20DE NEO smallbox clutch.

      By Kapr · Posted

      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.
