...or dont tune in and not contribute towards their ratings.

the ratings are only based upon random calls to homes which arent on the 'do not call' list

that said, if those f**kers called me (and they wont, cos im on the do not call list) theres no way i'd admit to watching that shit, even if i did

*sigh* how retarded are tv execs to rely on such prehistoric surveys

I have never heard of this in my life.

So, when they say Masterchef was watched by 2+ million people... They actually rang 2+ million people and asked if they were watching it?!

No

They base the answers upon a median sample set and extrapolate the "expected number" based upon the percentages given from a sample set.

How else do you think they come up with numbers like "2 million" - do you believe they have little green men sitting in your TV that radios back what u watch?

What Dohmar said ^. I’ve heard there is a predefined sample audience, that is to say people sign up with a company and that company then installs a data collection box that monitors the channels people tune to and sends that data back via the phone line. I know this company Nielsen does what is called ‘Television Audience Measurement’. I have TiVo in my house and I believe it also monitors channels that are watched and reports back via its network connection to the TiVo severs. Also Today Tonight is a terrible show :down:

yeah i know that foxtel has built in meters but I reckon it'd be harder with free to air (unless like you say they have a 3rd party addon box - which to be frank I've never seen/heard of but would certainly make sense)....

Measuring ratings

Television ratings are gathered in one of two ways:

1. Viewer "diaries", in which a target audience self-records its viewing or listening habits. By targeting various demographics, the assembled statistical models provide a rendering of the audiences of any given show, network, and programming hour.

2. A more technologically sophisticated system uses Set Meters, which are small devices connected to televisions in selected homes. These devices gather the viewing habits of the home and transmit the information nightly to Nielsen through a "Home Unit" connected to a phone line. The technology-based home unit system is meant to allow market researchers to study television viewing habits on a minute to minute basis, seeing the exact moment viewers change channels or turn off their TV. In addition to set meters, individual viewer reporting devices, such as people meters, have allowed the company to separate household viewing information into various demographic groups, but so far Nielsen has refused to change its distribution of data of ethnic groups into subgroups, which could give more targeted information to networks and advertisers.

you never know what theyll do next. a few years back it was on monkey bikes and general motorbike riders (not legally) and now they moved onto cars. in a year or so theyll find something different.

just dont drive like a maniac.. cos that shows the TT viewers that TT is right on the money. :D

    • The wiring diagram for the R33 RB25 is freely available, and is essentially the same same as most other RBs (just with differences as to which pin # does which job). To get the ECU to power up, you just need to provide power to the ECCS relay, and have the other power feeds that come in from the top left of the wiring diagram (wrt the ECU) that give perma power to the fuel pump relay, the ECU itself, etc etc, all connected. When you put power on all these it will just come to life. It's pretty clear from the diagram what needs to happen. Just follow the lines from the 12V + supply stuff in the top left over towards the ECU. I've even posted snips of such diagrams (not for vanilla 25, I think for Neo and 26) to various threads here in the last few months, talking about what it takes to get the fuel pump and FPCM up and going. Search these up and they will help get you started on doing the same with the vanilla 25 diagram. Hell, for all I know, I've done the same with that one in years past and have forgotten.
    • Yep...so unless someone posts up the answer you will need to probe from the ECU connector to the dash plug with a multi meter in continuity mode to trace the wires.  Note the ECU has multiple - and + (and across different key settings - Battery, IGN and Start) and most likely the power is fed from the connector(s) that is normally near the left hand headlight.
    • Thanks Duncan, I am actually just trying to get the Rb turning and running with the RB25DET S2 original loom itself  I am just trying to get it going outside the body and not thinking about the S15 or trying to match anything to the S15 loom at all I am only trying to see if anyone has done this and what pin they found to be the ignition trigger and ECU+/- on the dash connector, that's about it. Thanks  
    • Hi Guys, Does anyone know any aftermarket part numbers for a starter motor to suit the VQ25DET? I can find lots of alternative part number for the VQ35DE, which I assume would fit, but there is a lot of conflicting information out there. Thanks..
    • I don't understand how this hasn't boiled down to - Upgrade the turbo when you have everything required. ECU, injectors, fuel pump, turbo, etc. Do it all at once.  If you don't have everything required, just enjoy the car as it is and keep saving up your pennies.
