I'm, sorry but there is NO WAY in hell I will EVER pull over for a Vic roads car (the ones with the purple lights that usually pull trucks over). I will only ever stop for red and blues. They can follow me to the police station if they want but I aint stopping till I get there :thumbsup:

Hell even teh cops tell you if you're not sure if it's a real cop to keep driving to the next station.

Have done this in Britain. With a un marked police car at 3 am. lucky it ended all good as the actions i took were seen as being reasonable

yep will be locking the GTR up after the Dyno night at RE...

love how they say making the roads safe....but if you look at all the news videos and see whos been involved in accidents...wheres the imports!?

its all political and trying to please the majority of motorists...trying to push out the minority.

Ok I hate ACA... but they reported that cops raised something like $20k in 4 hours the other day from having an undercover cop stand on the street and report people on their phones/with out seatbelts etc that were then pulled over later down the road. 20k?!

If they were doing something honourable with the money (like charity/environment/homless) then it would be fine. But they're not. Very frustrating

dont you still have a auto licence?

Yeah, but been pulled up 5 times and had cops go over the whole car. They only dicked me for manual ONCE :O

The fine is only $117 with no demerits... Wouldn't be the end of the world if I got caught.

Anyway, I'm probably taking the MR2 out tonight :banana: My friend wants to see it. Just gotta keep it below 2000rpm haha.

Indeed they were everywhere... Was out near Moorabbin area, driving home at like 2am, saw a couple of cars getting pulled over in pouring rain...

They are pretty dedicated in raising revenue..

Anyone else noticed that, cop cars has a sticker on their rear quarter window? I wonder what it says hehe

    • 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.
