can't agree with you more Grim .... I am willing to bet our meticulously maintained cars can stop a HELL of a lot quicker from even 60km/h - 0 than most average rust buckets (nearly 2 ton Falcoons and Commondores) can from 50km/h - 0.

Ban low performance drivers and cars, rather than our beautifully built and engineered Jap cars, whose safety standards outstrip the Aussie built competition by a margin so wide it's not even funny!

Juust great... in a few more years the speed limit will be 30kms an hour everywhere, ..... why dont i just walk to work..  

Id probably get defected for my hand bag!!

ROFLMAO - your confusing the SAPOL with the fashion police...lol

Its a bit ironic, these beaurocratic (fark that was a big work, I need rest now.........) law makers were in their 20s during the 70s, (anybody seen the insurance adds on TV lately?) it was all about drugs, sex and rock and roll - and protests. A hugely rebellious era, where it was a requirement to challenge the system - now these are the onese that strip freedom off the average person at an ever increasing rate.

HMMMMMMMMMMM

Just thought i might add that SOME ppl shouldn't bitch about the system when they abuse it them selve hehehehehehehehe

Not pointing the finger at any one in particular hehehehehe.

I hope SHE knows who i'm talking about :slap:

Just a few complaints.

- I really am sick and tired of having to hit the re-circ button on the climate control to stop the stench of the bomb driving in front.

- Pulling up to a set of lights to hear rear brakes grinding metal on metal.

- Looking at the cars tyres in front only to see baldy's.

- Broken tail light lenses.

- One blown head light so the owner thinks its ok to use their hi-beams instead.

- Drivers that have no manners at all. Not curtious.

If you can't afford to maintain a car then it is simple. You shouldn't own one.

Catch public transport.

The Dob in a Driver campaign is now operational.

Maybe its time we start flooding them with calls regarding truly un-road worthy cars?

I hate to say it though.

All of my previous cars have been lowered. When they wern't lowered they never attracted any attention unless I did some thing wrong.

As soon as I lowered them .. pulled over cops walking around the car, poping the bonnet etc.

I have to say the same about the Skyline. I havn't lowered it. Same thing the 'kunstables' (like that word) don't bat an eye lid.

Well erm... only one has when he heard the stocker BOV makes its noise. Thank god for peak hour traffic and large trucks to hide my movements, he was a man on a mission. :P

Bit off topic but.. I was almost cleaned up big time last week.

I was picking up the other half in town at the end of Hindley street on King William near the nation bank. There is a small driveway type road that has loading zones between 9am-5pm. I was reversing out slowly as it is a blind driveway due to bus shelters, taxi rank etc.

All the traffic was stopped filling all lanes except for the very left lane that merges after the Hindley street traffic lights. I started to reverse out, the arse end was sticking approx 1/4 in to the inside lane when I saw the flash of a white VT commodore flypast. He would have had to be doing 60-70km/h kicking it back up the inside lane where I was pulling out. I honestly do not know how he didn't hit me.

If he had of hit me I would have spun around basically on the spot cleaning up people that at the time were walking around the front of the car on the foot path.

I felt the car sway as he want past it was that damn close. People around me looked stunned and flinched as he flew past.

    • 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.
