Ok here we go.. trying to do a bit of research on the ecu's.. am tossing up EMS, Power Fc, Haltech

ok now the power fc has 400 total fuel points and 400 ignition points for tuning.. now the EMS dual sport only has 48 and 48 points for tuning.. and the haltech has even more than power fc up to 704 points to be tuned..

now my question is .. how important are the amount of point available for tuning?? ive looked into the ems and its got some nifty features, eg NO AFM.. No more coil Packs data logging and tuning with laptop.

i really got no idea which direction to head with for this one.. also does anyone know if the new model power fc's do away with the AFM??

is there any reason you wan to get rid of the afm?

I would get a power fc cause the cops can tell if its aftermarket that way you have a much great chance of not being caught and if you are caught you can just wind down the boost and plug in the stockie.

the z32 afm will handel at least 250 rwkw and then you can step up to the q45 one.

megs, yeah i been through that site thats were my original data has been coming from..

i dont really know how important all those tuning points are or are thye just a wank?.. a couple ppl on sdu are saying go the haltech e6k..

though what u said about the power fc cop wise is a very good point.. and will most prob make me choose that option:(.. though that means ill still have mr afm :)

mario made 800 hp using afms so don't stress.

it can actually give you better resoution with the afm than using map sensors.

250 rwkw is very doable check out zapf's car on sdu he made 240 on stock internals and 14 psi. the key is getting a turbo bigenough and using a plenium if you get a plenium get the trust one I know more dollars but they are worth it. he is using a 3037 or 40 not sure

If you can find space in the budget get the n1 pstions from a gtr and lower the comp ratio abit and use good rod bolts the key is to make the power with out stressing the motor if you have to ring out using 20psi or more your motor wont last. and you must do injectors

yeah megs i was looking at a 3035 with 550cc injectors z32 and computer of some sort .. and maybe a metal headgasket to run a slightly lower compression.. that should get me the 250.. thats realisticly enough i believe.. traction is already a problem imagine what it will be with 250 at wheels..

    • But it's much better to use a freedom unit that has four different possible meanings...
    • I would try messing with friction modifier to see if it smooths it out.  Just keep adding more until it stops chattering or grabbing quite so much. If you haven't changed the gear oil in a long time you may as well start there too in case that has anything to do with it. You might want to also verify the initial torque is set to the lowest setting too. Requires popping out one of the CV axles first but that's not too bad. Once you're sure the preload is set to the lowest you can try adding an ounce at a time of friction modifier until it feels right to you.
    • It is possibly 55 degrees for the Nismo version. I had a look through the manual and the stocker has a breakaway torque of 2.5 to 3.5kgm. Supposedly the Nismo LSD goes down to 5kgm when worn in but it is pretty grabby even with very little throttle. Worse when cold. So I guess you have three things. 1. Shims. 2 Friction plates 3. Cams Would think shims would be the easiest but Ive no clue how many tenths of a mm shim thickness change equals how many kgm torque. Also not sure if the Nismo friction plates are similar/different to stock or if they are the most of the source of the diff being angry. Think I can write off the Nismo rebuild kit for the standard diff as not being what I want.  
    • Yeah, it was a bit of confusion with me, I rang and asked if they had a boot for a soft top, and then the paint shop when they rang and were asked if it had a hard top on it, which it does, just not a PRHT....LOL Meh, whilst frustrating for all concerned it isn't a war stopper and should be a thing of the past in a week or two In other N/A related news, car is booked in at the end of the month for the cams, springs, retainers, harmonic balancer and retune  I might even pull the lazy arse card and get them to do a full service on it whilst it is there
