Has anyone wired one of these into a CA? I'm reading the install guide and I can see it says if you're using low impedance injectors, which CAs and R32 GT-Rs are by default, that you will need a dropping resistor, is that right? I thought the dropping resister was only needed if you were putting high impendance injectors into a low impedance car?

Or is the resistor needed for the Emanage's benefit?

I don't have the emu, was looking at a cheap one.

A remap isn't available locally and if I'm driving 6hrs return to get a tune I'd rather it be on something that allows me to adjust it later or at least do data logging.

I know I can buy a Nistune but the emu was much cheaper (yes I realise they are two different devices).

Trying to avoid forking out $440 for a new nistune and software. I have an SAFC2 and just need some timing control (yes I realise everything is better than an SAFC) but as it's a track car it only needs to perform properly at WOT, which at the moment it more or less does.

I know it looks like this thread is dead, but I was hoping there might be someone on here that can give me some feedback, well here goes, if anybody is out there.

I've read through this thread searching for a possible solution for a problem I'm having. Car ran fine before installation. Issues I'm having at the moment are, 1st since installing emu, car is hard to start, wants to flood. I have to open the throttle to get it to start. I have since then cut 20% fuel in the lower coolant temp enrichment tables to get it to start without throttle input, but it is still momentarily rich for about 20 seconds, then leans out to be normal. 2nd, when I try to advance igniton timing, it goes all wacky in the areas I add timing. In the logs, it is really fuzzy, with crazy spikes anywhere from 10 to 40 degrees advance, when in the map I have .5 degree advance. 3rd, I can't seem to get the engine anti stall to work for nothing, maybe the other problems I'm having are associated to this also though. I have double checked the ignition firing order and it is wired up according to the top of this thread. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

    • Diagnosing with and without is mostly the same. You need to know, as Duncan asked, and what conditions. Car hot, cold, idling, driving, if while driving what rpms, is when you're varying, or is it when held constant.   From there it's understanding what can be causing it. Starting with pretending all of the sensors are correct. Which means if it's going rich, why would it be thinking more air is going in than it is, and under what conditions. So things like if only when under boost, it could be be a loose intake piping joint. It's just understanding the system, and understanding when/how the problem occurs, and then if it's only occuring in specific scenarios, what can be causing it.   ECU specifically, if it's aftermarket, it'll have software you can use, for the Skylines on factory ECU, there is Nissan Consult you can use. Most ECUs have a way to get data from them.
    • How do you go about diagnosing ecu's that don't have data logging, is it more experience at that point and just trying out things that you think will fix the issue?
    • Stock O2 are basically useless beyond anything at stoich. Any misfire will also be seen as lean. The stock O2 also read a collective exhaust gas volume, not each cylinder. Sputtering and missing means not each cycle is firing, and some are. Which means even if rich, as shit, on cylinders as they miss, they'll read lean, but the cylinders that did fire will read rich, and combined, well, they can read anything from rich to lean.   Start with the basics before even going looking at sensor values.   Edit: I say the above, and that's coming from the guy with a few thousand dollars worth of scan tools sitting right beside me right now that I use frequently for my job.
    • I just finished up a manual swap and I have a 1999 S2 AWD automatic in my garage, depending on where you are located. I'm in the the midwest of the US.
    • I’ve heard it can be done, you need to redrill the holes where they bolt to the chassis and apart from that they are the same. I’ve never done it or know anyone personally that has, it’s just something I’ve heard
