I found the police officers opinion on car crushing the most interesting.

We really need a drag strip here in SA with a reasonable entry charge so those that do street race realise how crappy it is when you can't really give it all she has without fear of being busted or some one pulling out in front.

I have seen this report before, one of the better "hoon" stories ACA has done.

For ones they are looking at the other end of the spectrum.

Also who the f*ck was that b*tch on the radio talking about crushing the "hotted up do-b do-b mobile" She should get her car crushed for one.

good to hear the other side for a change.

but 10 f6's at 70k each and their only getting 1-2 cars a month? is it me or does othes think that money could be spent else where? somewhere where it's needed maybe?

cops need to make other people know that their there, not hide to try and blend in to catch people in the act. stop the act before it happens!

i could go on and on but its not like it really matters. nice find either way.

ive been defected out the front of mallala once along with 60 or so other cars that day. all i was going to do was watch some decent drifting.

i understand that if your car is illegaly modded then cop it sweet but noone knows what illegal or not anymore. people are being f**ked over for the sake of it and being sent to regency because of the car they drive.

im waiting for the day that we get pulled over towing the drift car on the back so they can defect it :down:

People do speed to and from Mallala so why defect stations, this only prevents people from attending such events and keeps it ON the street.

Spend the $$ on increasing the number of speed camera's or laser guns.

I too have seen the defect stations but then carried on to see a lack of speed laser/camera's with some overtaking at crazy speeds.

Modifying will never be stopped so why not try to stop the behaviour on the street and encourage 'hoons' to take it to the track.

yeah thats the key......needing a drag strip is no brainer, it goes without saying but just you wait and see, if and when we finally get one, 17 year olds will have to sell their mum's on the street to be able to afford entry just so the strip can be paid off pronto......some of these kids with turbo cars can barely afford the petty to drive out there let alone a ridiculous entry fee......they'll continue to abuse Adelaide streets and only the true cashed up petrol-heads will pay the entry fee.........I'm generalizing of course but keeping it real nonetheless.

Good find btw Joel.

i vote SLED contacts aca adelaide and organises an interview, pledge exactly what he just said above,

and make sure they learn the difference between an enthusiast and a hoon ffs.

pfft why?

SLED drives a burnside bus now!

ror

-D

that's a low blow Ben............it's kinda like my GTR.....twin snails, 4WD, 3" zorst, Bilstein suspension, 6 speed, slammed....to the carport ceiling. :)

Yeah but it still gets no respect from me mate :)

You want me to respect an off road vehicle? Buy a unimog you softcock!

:blink:

I ran this idea past some people months ago, but there was no interest in it.

An interesting find tho.

    • 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.
    • 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.
