as the title suggests, does anyone round here have a guard roller i can borrow to do my rears?

mine broke the other day, and i cant bear the thought of paying for rolling guards when i have already shelled out for the freakin roller!

beers?

There's a guy from the AE86 forums who has a guard roller you could borrow but has to be used in his driveway.. I think.

$10 per guard and you can do whatever you want. He's in Endeavour Hills and if you're interested let me know and I'll pass on some details.

hey man.... hows the new car going? might have to look into it.... :)

still havent wired up my 4a yet ;)

Ah the turbo's seized, waiting on a replacement turbo at the moment. Apart from that it's a very nice ride. :D

Pretty sure you've seen him around the 86DC forums anyway, his name's Sam_Q. Does quite a bit of fab work as well if you need anything done. Wouldn't be surprised if he could do your wiring as well.

Shoot him a msg, I'm sure he'll be of some help.

Hey Adam-___- I thought you had a guard roller?

Dan (risol) on AE86DC could help you out, he runs ADM on AE86DC...

Might've had one which I borrowed, but never owned one.

Maybe SAUVic should purchase a guard roller and then lend it out to their members..

Too many people have had them and rented them out, only to have them come back broken... It might not be the best thing to do, Unless it was rented out at a decent rate.

i'm gonna try and fix mine... a heap of people on DC have had them and they have broken in the same way as mine :bunny:

definately NOT buuying another!

it made it through all 4 on my ke70, the fronts on the 33 and one of che's and that was that! not happy jan!

Basically ;)

Eventually someone would screw it over.

There are plenty of places that have rolling devices. Some more primative than others - some people are also prepared to gamble the paint cracking if they get a bit too excited :bunny:

    • 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.
    • 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.
