I've got the same error - but I'm sure my wires are OK. :)

swap a few wires.... you were getting Ign error on ALL 6 channels, yes?

did a few wrong wires cause ALL 6 to error?

my wiring seems to match up with the install instructions.

Trent: Thanks for the reply.

What I did:

Got N-4 harness for RB26.

I swapped knock2 and Air temp to read water and knock.

I also switched the inj. in/out #4 and #6. So it would work properly on RB20.

I left Ne/G as greddy. This way I got EMU to read timing properly, not 111.deg.

What I got:

Poorly running engine. Consult comes up with 43 and 21 error. TPS circuit and Ignition circuit.

EMU has troubles to calibrate the throttle position correctly. TPS error goes away after I start the engine.

Ignition circuit error is always there.

Poor idle/lumpy.

Still got missfires at 150-160km/h.Like before.

Need some help. Where to look for the problem ?

================================================

Ok, I've swapped the Inj In#4 and #6 . And totally forgot to swap the 4# and 6# on the out side. Damn. I reset the EMU, but still get errors in my factory ecu. Still TPS error and still ignition circuit error. I've tried to recalibrate the TPS so it reads the same Volts on factory ecu and EMU. Factory ecu closed throttle was 0.46 and EMU read 0.44. Don't know why.

I just entered the TPS values manually. Factory ECU still came up with that problem. Don't know why. Will switch the inj. out #4 and #6 tomorrow and finally see how it goes.

U guys don't want to know ((((

I first swapped them near connector. But I only did the injector in#4 and #6. And totally forgot about the inj. out. Anyway, car behaved same. I still got TPS errors in Nissan consult and Ignition circuit errors. I also couldn't make EMU get to adjust the TPS normally. It would always change itself a bit and be a bit different to factory ecu. Like factory ecu min - 0.46v and EMU reads 0.44. Factory ecu reads 100% wot at 3.96 and EMU at 3.94. Something like that. Sometimes its only the 0% setting, sometimes the 100%.

Car started to behave strangely. It didn't drive as good as with factory ECU. Idle became a bit erratic.

Then today I finally got time to swap the inj. out wires. And the car didn't want to idle at all. I crank the engine, it started and died in a couple of secs. Hooked up my notebook, and emu software came up with a series of ignition circuit errors, like ign. channel 2.4 or something. But I didn't even touch the ign. wires, cause they are all spot on.

Hooked up factory ecu diagnostic software, same TPS and Ignition circuit error. Car didn't idle at all, smelled fuel(running rich probably didn't hook up my wideband). Idle didn't stabilize at all.

I was pissed off after that. Just ripped out the EMU plug&play N-4 harness, hooked up my factory ECU straight into the engine harness back and started the engine. Everything got back to normal in a couple of minutes. I hooked up the diagnostic software and it read no errors, no matter how many times I cranked the engine and reset the ECU.

I don't know what to do now. Did I get faulty EMU or what ?

The worst thing is it should be plug&play and working properly and it doesn't. Got no idea why. My engine harness is not in its virgin state, but its ok for factory ecu.

================================================

Any ideas ?

Here are the pics.

From left to right, top to bottom.

First is the harness when it arrived. And then goes the pics where I changed a few wires and changed the #4 and #6 inj. wiring. As you can see right now I got Input.Inj#4 swapped. I used my universal harness wires to do that.

And Inj. Out is still the same as greddy N-4harness.

hey robots.

i see you are running this on a rb20 with the n-4 plug . now i thought u only had to change around inj 4 and 6 if you were running the rb25 ecu cuz i think the rb20 and the rb26 have the same 4 and 6 so no need to swap ???????

You haven't got the plug upside down in comparsion to the pin out diagram by any chance?

Or are you looking at the front of the plug when the pin out diagram is for the back of the plug?

I do it all the time, so you aren't alone.

Cheers

Gary

I got n-4 harness also. Check my posts above. Modded to suit rb20.

Need to swap inj in/out #4and#6 in the emanage harness, not the factory ecu harness.

And just work your way with Ne/G and Ar/A. I think my Ne/G stayed the same and EMU has no problem of picking up ign. timing.

Ar/A just swap them with the wires of identical color. You should get your 1 det sensor and water temp sensor working to activate auto-tune later.

Right then... Sorry if I'm messing this excellent thread up.

First of all, I'm Swedish, so I'd appreciate it if you would all be somewhat indulgent towards my poor English.

On to the business then.

About one year and a half ago, I managed to crash my R34 GTR during a track racing event, front first into a wall at about 75 km/h. Most of the front end was busted in one way or another, but the engine seemed to come out on top. The only thing I could see on it was that the steering pump pulley was slightly damaged.

Seeing as I would have to replace a lot of parts and take the engine out of the car, I figured I'd spend some hard earned money on improving the performance, not that my insufficient driving skills was really in need of it.

Prior to the crash the car was completely stock apart from downpipe, catback exhaust and higher boost. The specification now looks like this:

Since the rebuild was completed the car has failed to start. To be honest, I've no experience in tuning cars or even working on them. I've taken advice from others among my acquaintances that have suggested solutions to the problem.

I have spark.

I have fuel.

But the car will not start.

I’ve checked all earth wires.

I’ve replaced the battery.

I’ve used start assistance from another car.

But the car still will not start.

I first tried to start it using only the standard ECU, needless to say without any success. I suspected it would not start under those conditions, since the injectors are now twice the size and the AFM’s are also upgraded.

Today I plugged in the GReddy e-Manage Ultimate. I managed to get it working, communicating with my laptop and updated it to the latest version (2.13 if I’m not mistaken).

I brought up the parameter setting and selected the RB26DETT. I thought I’d be able to set the “Airflow change to” to Nismo AFM’s, but it seems all the options listed are standard engine components.

On the “I/J” tab I put in data for the new injectors at the bottom, 800cc injectors and 1.1 milliseconds latency. I made no other changes whatsoever.

Thereafter I saved and exported the data to the main unit. In spite of all this, however, it made no difference to how it was earlier. The engine turns over, it even “coughs” a few times, but it will not start.

I’m just about one step short of losing heart. I’ve been trying for two months by now to get it fired up. The whole restoration project has already cost me my marriage. If the problem isn’t solved soon, I’d gladly take a sledgehammer to the car and smash it.

Before anyone suggests it, taking the car to a professional mechanic or a tuner shop is not an option, neither for practical nor economical purposes.

Please also take due notice, my mission is not to map the car, just getting it started so that I can drive it to the tuner shop that will map it.

Basically, what I want to know, is if there’s any more changes I need or should do in the EMU setup programme that would get it to start or at least improve the chances?

Hello, noobie from the UK here.

First, just like to say what an excellent forum this is, excellent resource of information.

Hopefully you can help with an EMU issue, as there is little in the UK on the EMU.

Following on from this thread, I have bought an EMU for my spec 1 R33 GTS-T, which I have fitted today. I had some help from a guy in the UK on this, but having fitted it the car is running like crap, struggling to start, misfiring, erratic idle, etc.

The car is almost standard (at the moment), with just a Blitz front pipe, cat back, and sonic induction kit.

I have used the N4 specific harness. I have made the wire swap for the cam/crank angle and also swapped the purple/yellow knock sensor wire to the redundant purple/yellow connector as I have been advised.

The car has been set-up on the initial parameter settings below:

Vehicle.gif

Can anyone see what I have made a complete balls of or have any suggestions? Put the car back to stock and it runs fine, so must be something within the EMU setup

    • I replaced the whole clutch line with the chase bays braided hose, I think it removes that loop, is it the short hose that comes immediately off the slave or is there a drawing in the manual to find what you’re referring to? It was just re-bled when I upgraded to the nismo slave, old slave worked fine but I thought that might help, didn’t change a thing. It’s like the first half of the pedal is pushing air and then when it finally actuates the master the friction zone is tiny. Makes it practically impossible to launch the car
    • Yep, that was one of the things we learned fast in the past with our MX5. When you drive with the top down, you are effectively standing out in the sun, 100% of the time, and not getting in any shade (because roads aren't shaded generally!). Just like standing out in the middle of a field on a sunny 27C day is a bit of a bad plan, so is sitting in a MX5 without sun protection.
    • I also just ordered some Frankenstein bolts and side mounts to fit a hard top Just in case I do find one, basically so it doesn't need to be fixed to the car with only the front latch.......and then gaffa tape to keep it in place for the RTN journey from wherever I get it
    • If your temps are fine now, you probably won't have any issues with where your vents are as they don't look right up at the windscreens high pressure area, so any differences when giving it the beans for extended happy laps would be minimal, but, they should vent heaps when stuck in traffic  Much like how that reverse cowl on my SS let "visible" heat out when stationary, but, because it was basically at the windscreen my coolant temps on the Hwy actually raised because air was being fed into it at speed (110kph), to only come back down to around 90° when I got off the Hwy And your 100% correct about the NC currently not needing vents, but, if I was to add a turbo, and a oil cooler and intercooler in front of the condenserand radiator, and then take it to the track???? It is apparently a recommend requirement if I don't want to worry about coolant or oil temp issues, but, any of the above are possible scenarios, over time As it sits now, with the triple pass radiator and stock air conditioning system, I have absolutely no issues with either temps or air conditioning efficiency, I've been basically daily driving thie car for the last month, both on the Hwy, and peak hour, bumper to bumper traffic, but, that's pretty much expected from basically a standard engine  Talking about no issues daily driving, it was 39° the other day and I was sitting in bumper to bumper traffic on the M5 and then M7, with the top down, and with the air conditioning blowing nice cold air on my feet, balls, and face, well, there was one issue, my head and arms got pretty sun burnt Note to self: leave a hat and sunscreen in the car for such days 🤣
    • I would agree, unless you need something specific to the HV motor/battery side repaired or investigated, any mechanic will be able to perform normal services, but if you prefer, maybe look for a mechanic who regularly services/repairs Nissans, the VQ engines are pretty common in the Nissan lineup.  Sorry, I can't make any suggestions, I don't live in Vic.
