E-manage Ultimate (emu) 56k Beware (screen Shots)

[STATUS]

Hey guys,

I am keen to get a new ecu for my r34 GT-T Skyline, I was thinking of getting a Haltech Platnium Sport 1000, but I have also been looking at the cheaper option of Nistune and maybe a piggyback ecu. My maximum power figure that I would be aiming for would be 300kw eventualy. I have done a fair bit of work with standalone ecu's before, so I am tending that way. I am just looking for something that may be simpler and cheaper but will still do what i need it too, the Greddy Emanage seems to be a good option.

Thanks Joel

Nistune

Why Nistune over other options?

yeah, kinda pointless on alot of cars, the evos get good gains though.

Trent - by any chance has you tried E85 on a 1jz with the EMU? looking at doing it on my soarer cause we get 2 E85 servos here in the ACT this month and I have the Emanage lying around.

I still want to be able to run 98 so trying to figure out the best compromise of injectors that are big enough for upto the 300rwkw mark on E85 yet still be able to control the injectors with the EMU, The car is Auto so no chance of being able to use a real ECU

yeah its fine but you MUST wire up the coolant temp sensor as its needs lots on temp comp for cold start.

Thanks, was going to use the plug in loom to save hacking up the factory loom.

Im guessing it needs a bucket load more fuel when cold over factory.

yup.

Reckon factory 2jz 440's will be enough for the standard turbo's there is a set going cheap I can get my hands on.

Thinking I really should get some big ones straight up to make sure I have enought fuel for the future.

While Im thinking of it, would rb25 injectors fit the 1jz fuel rail, the plugs are different but thats an easy fix, asking cause I have set of high flowed 25det squirters sitting in the garage.

440's will be fine on petrol, they will see more power than your stock turbos can muster up. no chance on e85 though

and how cheap is cheap? they can be had regularly for $150...

[zebra]

aboot $100 bucks, I was more thinking just for the mean time, but the effort involved in swapping them over and then havng to go it all over again when I up the boost means I doubt Ill grab them.

just worked it out, the 2jz 440's are only 19% larger so no go for e85 even now, need 550s minimum

oh well.

Wolf do a plug in for an auto soarer.

[Wheezy]

He said real ECU

Lol yeah I know they do, But not for the auto trans models, I also dont like Wolf ECU's

[O2 Autosports]

they do auto trans models.

[zebra]

I was just on the wolf site, nothing there about a 1jz soarer.

And why would I go out an buy a new ECU when I already have the EMU here.

[STATUS]

they do auto trans models.

are they preset will all the correct shift pressures and what not? if not the are no different to all other ecus.... all ecu's can run an auto if you know the solenoid switching and relevant input /outputs.

If it does thats pretty sweet, but i still wont touch them

[zebra]

Says on the site that I need to take it to a Wolf specialist to have the auto shift done.

So no they arnt preset by the sounds of it.

[O2 Autosports]

They've done a fair few soarer auto's and most people are happy with how it comes pre-set. I like to take customers for a drive and customise the shifts to there driving style.

[zebra]

at what cost though, It wouldnt be free, and CBF spending 2K on a ECU plus 1500 to tune, then have to f**k around if the auto flares badly or shifts to early etc etc and at the cost per hour for workshop rates isnt cheap.

Cause there is no way you can program and auto box in a hour of cruising round the back streets.
