Hey Guys,

I am looking at getting an emanage in a couple of days but just before i went ahead and bought it i have a question. From what ive read the power fc allows for the car to run efficiently when cruizing returning very good economy. Does the emanage have this capability or will a good power tune make the car considerably more inefficient compared to similiar tune with a powerfc.

I realise that the powerfc has more capabilites and is tunable however im only after around 200rwkw, so an emanage can achieve those results powerwise. But am more concerned with how this will efect my fuel consumption.

Regards,

Daniel

Hi Daniel, power wise you may get a little more out of the Power FC for not much more cost. Fuel economy wise there is no comparison, the Power FC is miles ahead. This is due to its ability to tune functions that a piggy back simply can not access, such as the lambda aim table, fuel shut off on overrun and acceleration enrichment. Plus there is more load point flexibility in the areas of partial throttle openings.

What does it mean? Well based on my experiences with the Stagea (tuned with piggy backs) and the R33GTST (tuned via a PFC) it’s around 2.0 to 2.5 litres per 100 k’s. That’s saves me a $1K a year in fuel, so it’s worth it.

:laugh: cheers :)

Thankyou for your help sydneykid im prepared to pay the extra money if that was the case for the powerfc. It will quickly pay for itself considering the fuel savings. Is there or will there be any more group buys for the fc on here?

      R34 Gtt Wheel Offset Advice

      What can't be done with a little bit of decking board or similar timber bolted to a hub flange via 2 wheel nuts is not worth talking about.

      R34 GTT idle problem

      By silviaz · Posted

      I noticed something. On the tps sensor and the sensor behind the adjustment screw is adjusted towards the far left. Are these screws supposed to be centered? (this sensor was in the same position before the tune as well)  Also attached a photo of where my car usually idles at when warm (sometimes a tiny bit above that). I think I might have screwed up the calculation and it might have better than I thought lol at 750rpm still not 650rpm though.

      So for both general interest of engine health, and to rule out any coolant/oil issues, I organised an oil analysis done on the 125,000klm oil Results below, all good, just a bit of fuel dilution which I'm not too worried about

      This is actually a really good way of measuring what wheels fit. If only there was a similar measurement between hub face and suspension :p That said, it's probably pretty simple to actually measure it all with the wheel off the car for the rear. The front is a bit more complex but..

      Being the top Google search result for R34 wheel-related inquiries, lemme throw down my experience. I calculated that 100mm from hub face to wheel face is about the perfect fitment for my ENR34 sedan.  I've been running 18x8.5s, ET35, with a 1" spacer. So, 8.5in to mm = 216mm. 216/2 = 108mm. 108-35 = 73mm. 73+ 25 (1" to mm) = 98mm.  If you wanna get close to this on dif widths, here are the offsets you'll want: 9" - ET around 15mm 9.5" - ET around 20mm 10" - you're crazy, but ET around 30mm All these should fit perfectly on a non-widebody, non-GTR Skyline. Note that it's probably the absolute max, and you're probably better off running a couple degrees of camber in this config, but it looks great, super flush.
