NIZ,

Same car as before "Sheep in wolf's Clothing" hehe

RevN,

Yeah, still in F&F clothes but will change soon, badge will go to

(still get people who dont know liners)

Strich,

Yeah saw your car but couldnt see you, would have waved.

Was buying White R33 from Autowrox, but didnt make it, so back to the old girl and make more power hehehe.

oh i spotted Judged on the way back from the Drift Training Day in Wanners about a month ago .... parked on the side of the road talking on ya mobile ....... wouldve waved but i was driving the ZX.

Lee,

what model commy?

Danny,

hehe. those must be the most talked about decals in the world. everyones a critic until you tramp it and spray molten rubber up their windscreen! :rolleyes:

race theme good. something that just says "this is what it's all about. this is what it's supposed to be"

now the impact wasnt that hard ..... i managed to brake completely and he just locked his up but sailed into me at a fairly low speed.

So i wasnt thrown about in the car too much .... neck etc all fine .... just sore muscles from gym :cool:

Then again if its going to cause a neck massage from some hot guy: Owwwwwwwwwww!!! :rolleyes:

yeah, dat be me, thinking that was weekend I was at Autowrox driving white GTR around the area and had pulled over (my old car) to talk on the phone (good boy I am) and bragging to everyone hehehe.

i ws going to on way home then remembered that the rego number was at home ..... so not much point.

And tonight i dont even have time to scratch my arse after work have to thrash shite outta Laser (with no petrol) get home n go down south.

    • 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.
