FARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRK yeh

thanks Ryan, thanks Bec, thanks MIC thanks everybody !

SEE YOU there ! and anything i can do let me know. i'll try and round up helpers.

:)

p.s i'm glad i didn't have to beg to hard

lol do it :)

hey man how'd your car go at winton ? i'm spent saturday doing some much needed things, i'll take it in to work shortly for a proper going over and much needed wheelie.

p.s told you i was getting the ball rollin

DECA is fun no matter what your tyres are like... or even what car you have!!

Its a great event to muck around in your car in a safe, LEGAL, environment..

and to top it off it is a great social weekend as well,

good to catch up with old mates or meet new ones!

you forgot to mention it can be bad on you head gaskets.

:)

oh and bearings, i heard that gtr off idle and saw countless people look at it, but couldn't bare myself to give the driver my 2 cents.

:D

Heh the head gasket was my own fault for using a cheap gasket!

The Corona will be there, better than ever :)

Also to add for new comers thinking about competing

DECA is VERY easy on cars, the speeds are relatively low, and grip levels are far less than a track day.

Which over all means less stress on your car, and importantly more FUN!!!!

Thanks for the early offers of volunteering... will have a thread up soon, chasing people...

SO, make sure you all drum up some people to come along and have a look/help!!

Good to see there is so much interest, this should be good!!

Hah, well done mate, will be good to see the S13 kicking hard at the next DECA day, will you be making the SAU track day on the 18th?

Yeh Winton was good, my first time driving the car decently since I bought it 2mths ago. Only done 500 odd k's in it as I've been doing mods etc since I got it, about 100 with the new shocks and had never drifted before so it was a massive learning experience and I had a blast despite spinning out countless times.

Was a nice bonus to drive it there and home without any issues after a day of third gear clutch kicking action lol

Might skip the fun day on the 4th so I have enough time to get my GT-R seats in, brakes finished, oil cooler in and maybe a turbo - see how we go lol

:D so you went from a easy fit or mono torque to genuine, or graphite ? :dry:

vince and i brang 5 onlookers last time.

sounds like lots of fun :) yeh unfortunetly my car and everthing around me was preventing me from coming to winton and i'm not happy about it. I'll be making as many appearances as i can and counting down the days to Round 3 in sheparton!

gtr seats, nice, i sold my seats last week and i'm forcing myself to buy something but i don't know what yet. how'd your clutch go the whole day ? smell much.

by august i should have my car pc installed and im hoping to do some kms, but track only car so it's a bit hard to test my equipment and car out in the meantime. c how it all go's

Yeah picked up a pair of great condition R32 GT-R pews with rails for $500 delivered, the missus loves them too so I lashed out and got her one too lol

Clutch was fine, it was wet on and off and my car makes SFA power :)

Keep pluggin away mate, you'll get there.

he i most likely be able to help out on the mini wang in the morning.... but this all depends on my fiance is due to have baby #2 near this date so its up to her if she decides to cross her legs a lil tighter so i can come and help put. i had a ball doin it at the feb deca and wanna do it again.

    • 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.
