SCRUTINEERING FROM 8:15AM

THIS IS THE LAST CHANCE TO PRACTICE FOR THE NATIONAL MOTORKHANA CHAMPIONSHIPS

ENTRY FEE $50

PM me if you want contact details for organiser

Quite a well organised event and had a heap of fun. Even with the early morning rain and late afternoon wind it didnt seem to effect the fun. Knew my little car wouldn't be suited to this type of event but just wanted to see how it would react and the result was predictable.

Lots of other cars were great fun to watch, some people were big on handbraking every single cone, others liked to throw the back end around and some just drove it as quickly as they could.

If anything I think the only downside of the day was not enough time to actually watch other people compete. Maybe next time instead of having 2 groups on 2 different courses have 1 group at a time and get a set amount of laps then swap to the other group or something I dunno.

If anyone has pics of the little blue car as seen in my avatar please post them up or pm me for my email address.

Good job guys see you at the next event.

OK, thanks to EVERYONE for coming to this event either to participate, volunteer or even just spectate!

To the participants, I'm glad everyone had a good time, and as far as I saw, there were minimum casualties as far as dead or dying cars go. Luckily for everyone who was out there, tyres were the only things to suffer in a major way! This is PROOF that these kinds of days are reasonably easy on your cars.

To the volunteers - "Xmetal" Ian for photos and cone picker-uppering, "~Jay~" Jason, "Oz GTR32V" Paul (and his wife) for help with the BBQ and entertaining us in the Ford "Terrible-tory", Doof's girfriend Anna (and Tegan) for helping with timing, Charles and Clinton, and anyone else who I may have missed - our many thanks for helping out with the running of this event.

To the SAU-NSW Executive crew and support team - Neil, "Abo BOb" Adam, "Sl!m" Sam, "N1GTR" Steve-O, "DRD-00F" Steven, "Ando," Duncan and Kel, and "FloydWestwood" Dave, you all did amazing work to run this day!

Oh, and thanks also to Duncan for taking me out for a run in the Zed in the morning on Course 1 and the Go-to-Woah, and Zane for an afternoon run through the slaloms!

i was only a spectator on saturday so i would be super keen for a Motorkhana, anyone else interested in this one?

A big big thankyou to all the organisers and everyone who helped out on the day. It was soooo much fun and I can't wait to do it again. Only thing that broke on my car were two brake light globes which is pretty good (Thanks to everyone that let me know) Can't wait for the next one :) I'll try and get some pics up as soon as I can.

Looked like a great day! I was very disappointed when I couldn't get my car back together in time. I had two sets of tyres ready and a keen interest to destroy them.

Glad to see someone picked up my entry on the day, #34. Whoever it was, drop me a pm so we can chat.

yup i am, just gota try and re orgainise things so i have the day free.

also i had the PlatsX in the glove box the whole time but couldn't work out who you were lol

HAHAHAH yeah i was trying to find you too, i didnt arive until around 11am and only stayed for a few hours. i was trying to see who you were, but i didnt know what colour car you were driving, not to worry, thanks for bringing it anyway.

Sorry i couldnt talk for longer on the day!

The list is in a previous post :)

    • 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.
