The serial no (If it is the small sticker on the back of the unit) is GSCII 05144 and the board is a D version

where was it purchased?

Good question

I bought it from another Skyline owner. It is brand new, box still sealed etc, but I don't know when he purchased it or from where. He sold it on because he went for an ecu remap instead.

Quick update Trent

Got sent a map from one of the guys on the SOC forum and tried it last night and the car ran perfectly. Came to the car this morning and running rough as hell again, with a definate smell of petrol until the engine died. Reconnected the stock ecu and ran fine. Drove the car 25 miles to work no problem. At work reconnected the emu and now the car won't even start. Is this starting to indicate a potential problem with the emu hardware? Harness should be OK, as it is a genuine Greddy N4 harness. Totally lost what to do next other than chuck the lot in the bloody bin and give up! :O

I've come across one annoying problem with the emanage, while stuffing around with the laptop when connected to the emanage with the car running somehow the map becomes corrupted and car runs megga rich on idle and can't rev past about 2 grand. However the problem is easily fixed, start a new map and then copy all the infomation across to the new map and car runs fine again....wierd.... its done this to me twice now.

Anyone know what a safe rev limit is on RB25 I want to push it up just a bit to say 7200, 6800 doesn't seem enough.

I've had that happen too, but not since the latest software upgrade. When it's happened I've looked at the datalog and the emu has stopped outputting an afm signal. Start a new map and it's all fine again.

The hydraulic lifters on mine started complaining at 7500 so I wouldn't go above 7200. Personally, I left it at 7000 as I really don't need any more revs. Especially with a 3.7:1 ratio diff :O

Yeah there was an old glitch in the software that did that on occasion but the new updates have cleared that up.

is the temp reading accurate i the EMU datalog? if not you need to swap jumpers. D board does not have the inbuilt temp vs inj adapter built in.

Seems to be reading OK. Did a datalog when it was running OK yesterday from warm and was reading between 79-81 degrees on the datalog. Jumpers are still set to factory default.

which software update is that? I'm running 2.16 downloaded from mohdparts.com

um, emu has the 2.16 firmware as well it seemed to of done it when the laptop shut down and had to be restarted, well I think

yeah check it updated, then load say rb20 into your EMU then start a complete new rb25 setup file and load that into the EMU and see if it fixes your issues.

ok will do I'm pretty sure it updated the first time I connected it after the update though. Your boost cut settings worked as well thanks for that, I just had to change one of the settings a bit lower and it was all good. I Think my rubber intake was sucking closed as well, I reinforced it after the boost cut settings didn't work at first.

Hi guys.... I plugged in and turned on my EMU yesterday. So many questions....

Firstly, I have a D board, is this a major issue???? Trent, if it is, can we do a deal re your spare E board?

Secondly, when I had it on the dyno (I got some free time from a place I used to work at), I couldnt make any changes stick.... I.e. whenever I changed the airflow adjustment map, the stock ECU brings the values back to lambda.... How do i get rid of this, as in turn on closed loop?

I'll think of some more no doubt

if you want to tune in closed loop areas disconect the o2 sensor. Also dont use the airflow adjustment map use the injector map.

happy tuning :thumbsup:

I have a question regarding the airflow adjustment map. I have been tuning the car using the injector map and have got the afr's pretty good but not quite perfect as the afr can change a little bit from within the same rpm tuning square. I think I read in this thread somewhere that you can use the airflow adjustment to fine tune the afr by changing the maps scale for finer adjustment. Is this still possible when my airflow meter is maxed out? I only really want to clean up my high rpm afr's

use injector map 2 and set your scale from where you want to clean up, for example you have a weird spot at 6250 you camn actually run the map scale from 6000 to 7000 (6000-6500 etc) and have the scale real specific around your problem (see attached pic)

you can do the same with timing. All secondary maps work on top of map 1 so any adjustments on map2 will be added to map1 ; so if you have plus 15% fuel in map1 at 6250 and 5% at 6250 in map2 you will have a total of 20% extra fuel at 6250.

hope it helps

    • From what I've seen and experienced first hand with those powder extinguishers, they're good to use to break a window and escape the car, and half the time then do f**k all to stop a fire. You just need much more than 1KG worth of powder. Not to mention, half the time it's an engine bay fire, and you can't easily, and do not want to completely open the bonnet, so you're left pretending to be an American Infantry... Spray and Pray baby!   And then 100% that shit is really destructive afterwards!   Realistically, those little ones at a race track might help you keep the fire from growing and give the fire marshal / truck a chance to actually get to you with their multiple large bottles.   For a road car, these days, prepare to deboard as quickly as humanly possible, and move to safety. Allow insurance to fix replace it (unless it's like a rare classic etc, then do nearly everything possible to save it!) Keep the little extinguisher with you to help protect other things around you from burning while you stand there singing "How can we sleep while our beds are burning?"   Secondly, powder extinguishers I freaking hate for indoor use, (this isn't really relevant to a car) as you will get a powder fog around you, and it can be disorientating.   When I did fire training when at BlueScope Steel, they have (had?) their own fire brigade on site. We did all the training, and at the end we were told, "If it's an indoor fire, and you need to use a powder extinguisher, we as the fire brigade would rather you just exit the building, you're more likely to get lost in the smoke and powder fog than do much help, so just GTFO" And pretty much that was what they said for most other fires too, grab extinguisher, if it's much more than paper in a bin fire, use extinguisher to get you and others out of the building to safety...   Part of me wishes when my Skyline caught alight many moons ago, I let insurance sort it out, instead of putting the fire out... part of me now says "But I've saved a classic before it was a classic!"
    • Hi all,  I have a older model of the Greddy Front facing intake on an RB25DET NEO Head. I've bought aeroflows fuel rail and injector kit (1000cc Bosche injectors) and I'm unsure if the fitment is correct. The injector o-rings fit in the intake hole but it's not snug. I can very easily rotate the injectors even when the fuel rail is mounted. The kit also came with multiple adaptors, they dont make it any more snug and using them raises the injectors up and i cant mount the fuel rail. I hope this makes sense I've asses a few photos.    Thanks so much guys. 
    • So, to run the 4g aerials to the booster, I had to get access to the rear bulkhead....bit of a mission. Hot tip, don't offer to help change the rear shocks for a mate with a v37.... Remove seat base, 2 clips that slide forward to release it the it lifts straight out Fold down rear seat (pull in from boot) The side bolster of the rear seat is not connected to the middle parts that fold. To remove unbolt at the bottom bolt then push it up off the top hook Then there is a plastic surround behind the seat back, 2 pop out clips, 2 bastard clips, some swearing at it is out Pop the rear seat latch surround off Remove door surround lower trim then side trim  Remove c pillar trim - 4 clips, pull inwards not forwards Remove metal brace - 5 bolts 1 nut Then you have got to the rear strut top...what a pain!
    • If you really want squish back, you can have it put on the piston (at least to some extent).
    • Impressive. He's very very smooth.
