Found out some interesting info today.

Everyone remembers the crash on pt road ages ago. Some teenagers died, everyone says they were drag racing also and doing 160+k's

Had the girls dad come into work today and said the case is still going, there was no drag racing, and were doing around 80-90k's.

Basically the media added drag racing/hoons and speed to get readers/ viewers.

Fu*k media.

If that's accident where a Ford Falcon slammed into a tree.... then I wouldn't believe everything you hear :P

drag racing is not street racing.

"You never had me ... you never had your car!"

Some toss-bag on Ebay has just relisted an item I won on Friday! Won a replacement crank and rods for my RS250 race engine (which I've blown up). Claimed there was no communication, despite the fact I sent him mail saying I was bidding on his barrels and rods also, and his reply was "Great, I've got them boxed up ready to go. Let me know how you go." 2 days later, and before the bidding ends on the other items, he's reslisted them. Makes it more suss when he sent me mail today asking if I was paying soon, as there are other buyers willing to pay more for the crank.

Wanker. :)

    • 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.
