Here it is guys, this one is half cruise, half adventure :)

The run is over Mt Nebo, all the way to the end. We then head north to Kilcoy for lunch (the real Grand Touring road). Lunch is at the Exchange pub in Kilcoy which serves fantastic meals for a good price. Then we head over Mt Mee, and back through Samford, and we are pretty much back where we started. Overall it will probably take 3-4hrs. A few of us did the run recently and it was awesome, we stuffed around quite a bit and it took 4hrs.

Mt Nebo - a tight long mountain run that is good fun at low speed.

Mt Nebo to Kilcoy - single lane highway, open road with some nice sweepers.

Kilcoy to Mt Mee - a bit of everything really.

Mt Mee to Samford - back to civilisation.

Day : Sunday 5th October

Time : 11:30 am

Meeting Place : School Rd, The Gap, Brisbane. Check the refidex.

Depart : 12:00pm.

Bring - A bottle of water and maybe some lollies or light snacks for the drive to Kilcoy.

CB radio. If you dont have one, buy one - A Uniden one.

A full tank of fuel.

Man, that is the cheapest I have ever heard of....he really does have love in his heart. Is it cheaper if you don't take the skid pan part?

Will be there, have to hurry up and get the front coil overs rebuilt soon then! (or else I may falling off the road every now and then).

Shot gun behind you slip...uh, on the run that is.

I should be able to make it BelGarion - I'm at Nerang.

Can I suggest we leave much earlier by any chance? There's a lot of traffic on those roads on Sunday especially at that time. I generally do those roads on my bike really early.

But if it has to be 11.30, who am I to argue...

Where will the Gold Coast contingent meet?

Thats a really good point, i only ever do glorious very early in the morning, sometimes where lucky and the roads are still wet in some places.... but yes i love it, its like meditation for me.

I'm far too excited. Slip said the magic 'N' word :(:) :)

Going to need to put my new wheels on and test em b4 then, and maybe switch my rear pads.

Jason, If one's still available, could I borrow a UHF from you on the day?

I'll call you next time we head out for a run if you're interested...

    • Um.... This is not easy. I will have a fiddle with it, but make no promises. I think, given the explicit resistances vs temperature, and your ECU measured voltages, it should be possible to match them up. I will do that by assuming a 5V supply from ECU to sensor, find out how much current would have to flow to produce that voltage, then use that current as a .... nah f**k. That won't work. The supply voltage is fixed, but there's nothing to say that the ECU regulates the current too. Um... I dunno. I guess there's a voltage divider setup in the ECU. As in, there's another resistance between the ECU's sense terminal and ground. That way, as the sensor resistance changes, that's how they get a floating voltage that varies with the temperature, without having to control the current. Give me a minute or 3.
    • *that* is a question for chatgpt (or someone that understands maths....but I'd try chatty). Drop them the table and ask for the formula
    • Alright. Exhaust has been looked at, and booked in 'soon'. I'm not 100% convinced it's going to be as good as possible but I'm going to go with it anyway. If I get a reasonable thing that works for 10 years I mean that's twice as long as I've lived with the current one. I have a more pressing issue. I have fixed my MPVI3 (by buying a new one). Excellently, one can wire in analog 0-5v inputs to the ECU itself. I had wideband already via Serial so I also wired it in via the direct input. The idea being I can use the standalone logging without a laptop and have Wideband data in it. The other wire I thought I'd use oil temp. This is where I've gone crazy. HPTuners requires you to implement a formula so you know how much volts = how much temp. This seems relatively simple to me. However I cannot find the scale for this anywhere on the internet, nor decipher how to figure it out without removing the sensor from the car. All I know is that voltage actually goes up as temperature goes down. I am using the actual gauge, so I can see what the temp is. The signal wire has been branched off into the MPVI3. EXAMPLE: 2.68v = 58C 2.7 = 57C 2.74v = 56C 2.8V = 54C 3.06V = 49C 3.18V = 47C 3.37V = 43C I think the gauge is 50-150C. It may be more. It may be less, because I can't find it for the love of f**k. It appears all the information about the gauges I have has been scoured from the internet, but the sender is VDO 320.021 I believe the resistance chart is this How the f**k do I convert this to a voltage? Once I have a voltage... I then have to perform this transform of said voltage to show it in the scanner: https://www.hptuners.com/help/VCM-Scanner/Content/vcm_scanner/defining_a_transform.htm @GTSBoy you're probably my only hope here TEST YOUR MIGHT
    • Here’s the updated and installed muse replica nismo ones … very happy with the outcome. Eventhough I painted my whole rear end due to my rich idle lol. 
    • Hmm. I had a good look (w/o searching, because I'm not logging in) and couldn't see it either. I distinctly recall the thread, not many weeks ago. It must have been removed or perhaps put into the back section. If it was in Off Topic you should at least have been able to search it up. So if I'm not hallucinating, it is fairly decently removed.
