dohmar -as for the repeat of some members cars in the last calendar - that was because there wasnt as much notice and not many people submitted their photos. I DID use at least ONE photo of every car that was submitted - to fill the gaps, I had to re-use some members cars - had to fill the gaps somehow.

As for this time, well theres alot more notice, and alot more planning is gong nto it, so it wont be like that this time!

coolness, hopefully we can find someone with an early model gtr and a 35 *nods* :P

Last calendar was awesome, put me down for two again :P

-D

Be happy to have a calender, hey flick can we maybe vote on the photos used for the 2010 one ? just a suggestion ?

and get a deadline for photo submission ? not to be too picky but some of the photos used were low resolution ones when the hi res were provided for use ?

could have been a designer error or printer error . but hey thanks for putting up your hand to do one :banana:

hey I have some nice shots of luke blowing his chunky dinner on the sidewalk in kadina for the back cover ...lol

kidding!!!! Luke

Hey troy. Cheers for the suggestion, but as for the voting, well im going to avoid that - or it will just turn messy and turn into arguments and dissagreements. I will just do it how i did last time. What looks best on the printers screen, is what will be used..

As for a deadline, well as yet there is none, it wont go to print for AT LEAST 6 weeks, so I guess thats the deadline, gives people pllllenty of time to organize photosl. Take time people - go out on a sunny day, experiment with angles, backgrounds etc. That said i DONT want photoshopped photos, pure natural photos are best, thus why some submitted last time werent used, they were too edited and well.. tacky looking, not what SAU is about. Show us YOUR car, not what u can do to it with a bit of editing..

The photos i used last time troy, were the best i had to work with out of what was submitted. Yes, some high res ones were left out, they just didnt look right when blown up on the printers screen.. 80% of the planning and design is left upto my printer/designer, she says which photos are best for use and we go from there.. I had to usesome low res ones, as its the best i had of that particular persons car.. and i wanted at least one of every car submitted.

So.. forget this years calendar, lets move on from that one.

That said, any ideas are welcome, but in the ends, its upto my printer and she she can do.

so keep submitting people! Make them stand out - make them different from the usual boring photos taken from your backyard. experiment, get together with some other members and do some group shots. Keep them coming!

:)

Guys, would everyone like to organise a 'photoshoot day' for these photos. Get them all done at one time and that way if you dont rockup then you dont get the privlage of being in the calander and then if there is over whelming demand we can have 2 or 3 cars in the one photo and then noone misses out :)?

I would LOVE a photo of all the GT-R's in a line, if someone has a first Gen GT-R in Adelaide that would be fantastic too but I don't like the odds of that lol

I'm dragging out the photo gear for Dyno day and will be there for photos all day. plus maybe some after depending on weather, location surroundings etc

otherwise Im game for a photoshoot day in the near future if the weather holds off a bit ???? I have some new interesting spots for photos

thats the plan damo.. I want to include EVERY model of skyline, thus why im giving alot more notice this time, more time to organize and plan it. I may make it a little different this time, to include more photos - see what I can come up with, with the designer. Yes i want to include different cars/members this time, but i will probably also put in small photos of regular, full time members who may have entered last time also - probably not as main photos tho, to make it fair.

I want to keep the front cover similar to last year, with a group shot, so a cruise/photoshoot will be in order.

Good job on the calander for 2009 Flick, it looks nice on my wall. Im sure the 2010 calander will look good in my new home :P .

I will email some pics for this in the next few days. but if there is another photoshoot cruise for the front cover is in order send me a PM whenever it goes ahead I havnt been on a cruise in a long long time.

as i mentioned in an email to flick, SAU dyno day comming up is a great place to get everyone together for some photos,

by the looks of it we will have at least one of each model... hopefully an r35 too lol.

^^ Ill see how I go with that, when is it again? Im probly working. If i cant make it, would be good if someone could take some decent shots to forward on to me.

Iron Chef, I LOVE ur car, always have, if you could forward me some shots would be good. Got some shots from all jap day wth Heslos car? I think it was u two that were parked together, that would make a great pic.

And nisskid - action shots more than welcome! I want to show skylines in all sorts of ways.. from show quality to track.

I encourage u to be creative people! Some of the best shots last year came from Vu who went to different locations, different lighting and the shots were awsome. His were taken in a quiet city street with some amazing lighting effects. So make ur photo stand out!

My car has the fresh dent on the drivers side front 1/4 panel frpm when that lady reversed into it in traffic 2 weeks ago, unless you get a shot from the oppisite side Troy aha?

bahahah you and me both have the same dents :(

bahahah you and me both have the same dents :(

I thought your dent was on the passenger side? lol........ or is there a new one?

My car wont be ready for another month or so....... unless someone wants to lent me some ballin' rims haha

    • 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.
    • Well this shows me the fuel pump relay is inside the base of the drivers A Pillar, and goes into the main power wire, and it connects to the ignition. The alarm is.... in the base of the drivers A Pillar. The issue is that I'm not getting 12v to the pump at ignition which tells me that relay isn't being triggered. AVS told me the immobiliser should be open until the ignition is active. So once ignition is active, the immobiliser relay should be telling that fuel pump relay to close which completes the circuit. But I'm not getting voltage at the relay in the rear triggered by the ECU, which leaves me back at the same assumption that that relay was never connected into the immobiliser. This is what I'm trying to verify, that my assumption is the most likely scenario and I'll go back to the alarm tech yet again that he needs to fix his work.      Here is the alarms wiring diagram, so my assumption is IM3A, IM3B, or both, aren't connected or improper. But this is all sealed up, with black wiring, and loomed
