[SOLVED] Vehicle list help

Post by rscliofan »

ok so i'm struggling, mainly as i have a car that only 50 were produced.

do can someone tell me what "shift flash %" is?

also in power transmission

i can only find the following info on my drive

Vehicle speeds mph @
1,000 rpm (ratio)

1st

13/40

2nd

19/37

3rd

31/43

4th

38/39

5th

38/31

6th

46/31

Final Drive

17/67 = 0.2388

how does that translate into HLT?

That's the threshold of RPM you want LapTimer to start showing the shift flash. So if your car's max RPM is 10000 (easy to calculate) and shift flash is 90%, LT will start flashing at 9000. Please note all of this makes sense with an OBD sensor connected only.

Ok i'm still having issues in that OBD Data isn't showing the right gear but i'm also unable to get the right settings?

if you look at the image bellow you will see V15 and V16 beta. you will see the gear ratios are EXACTLY the same as the rest of the car settings are but the speeds are different????

Neither show me in the same gear as i am in most of the time though? no biggie just would like to sort it out if i can?

I should ass that V16 is almost spot on just a few mph out but V15 is way, way, way out with the same settings :?

v15 shows the speed at max power rpm (5500), v16 shows the speed at max rpm the engine can make (limit = limiter). The later has a certain meaning, the first one is a good approximation for the vehicle's max speed IN CASE IT HAS NO FUEL SAVING LAST GEAR OR IS A DIESEL ENGINE. As there are too many cars that do not fulfill this criteria and generated lots of questions here on the forum and in my mailbox, I decided to change it.
