Only trying it for the alleged wake up feeling fresh benefit

I wake up feeling lethargic for the first couple of hours generally, body takes a while to counteract the extra 'sleep chemical' and release enough 'wake chemical'. Your brain doesn't necessarily release as much Melatonin naturally as you'll be taking, so you might take a little while to adjust. I found I was getting 'Melatonin Hangovers' in the beginning. See how your body reacts and adjust your dose, everyone is different.

Ordered Nismo gear knob today.

Just need Nismo 320 cluster and centre gauge, and fire extinsurger mount bracket. And interior is done.

Fire extinguisher bracket...

So ill be seeing you at the next track day?

where you thinking of mounting i need to mount mine..and what gear knob the round one of the thin longer ones?

congrats by the way saw it on fb a couple times it mint

Thinking of putting it below drivers seat cos I recall a thread in Victoria about that bracket a bloke made them, just need to find the thread.

I'm getting round one in white and would like to get Nismo cluster in white like the one in my 1st GTR.

Thanks.

Tony, looking to do just drags and DECA to start off, my cajones aren't big enough!

I have the centre gauge set but you'll need the surround.

This guys become an addict.

Haha yeah bucket seat and racing harness to go on this weekend

good to see one of us doing regular track work, making us all look like a bunch of hard-parkers!

Doing track work has kind of opened my eyes in the point of owning a modified car

Come join me Pat!

Are you sure? Cos el presidente would disagree this statement :P

Yeah that guy is a bit crazy haha

Given parking in a car park being something car enthusiasts have been doing for probably 40 years. Love the name change people are using nowadays, hopefully it makes it into the dictionary with something along the lines of:

hard-parked - new term coined by new scene kiddy, flat capped, skinny jean wearing homos - to be "individual". More commonly referred too as "parking your at a car meet"

yeh lol i cant wait to get into another car so i can do some track work..

Probably just a glorified PA

I lol'd.

Good work on the track down Marty, shit can be so satisfying. Call up the police with the same info and they'll give you a spiel about the privacy act. Good thing this act doesn't protect people from their own stupidity.

Had someone steal their car from our workshop after we had worked on it...all I had were numberplates and a first name. Had to seek an order to get Vicroads to release information for the sheriff's office to go serve him, but he wasn't at the registered address, so they put it in the too hard basket.

So I start up the Birds detective agency and, 100 rabbit holes later, I knew more about him than his mum! Most importantly, his place of work (which he'd raved about on his FB wall...along with various status updates bagging our company and calling us criminals)...so we could serve his f**king papers on him.

    • 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.
