Another very good one on the market is the AEM, im selling them around $100us cheaper than the innovate or PLX, sure there must be somone in Ausi selling them?

VEMS is also pretty good, not sure if you guys have VEMS agents there though, currently the AEM is slightly cheaper though.

yeah ive been using a aem gauge for nearly a year now, been perfect from day 1.

got it from quantum racing in qld

its got two..... and has full POWERFC support.

i use the LM1 for street tuning and in the race car and the LC1 for other things.

I use the LM1 connected directly to emanage or FC-datalogits for accurate wide band logging.

sorry must have been mistaken with another one.

whats the LC-1/LM-1 worth anyway?

Innovate LC1 is the best option if you want to leave the sensor hard wired into your dump pipe. If you are just using it here and there, the LM1 (or its successor, the LM2), is the better option. The LC1 can be had for $260 - http://www.ausperformance.com.au/store/ind...mp;productId=21

The LM2 is a fair bit more expensive, at $620. Whilst I recommend this unit for people who only want to tune their cars every now and then, it isn't worth the money unless you are tuning other people's car's as well.

This isnt an area id be taking chances on over a few hundred $, esp if your going to be tuning with it. The innovative gear is proven many times over.

for ACCURATE tuning i wouldnt go past the autronic. there is a reason why its 2k.

but i use the ngk one. good for cleaning up the map on the road. if you do get one, make sure it has a 9-20:1 resolution with a linear 0-1v and a 0-5v aux output. as most ecus require this for exact afr targeting.

the ngk one does 9-16:1 :s found that out after i got it lol. but does the job i need it to do :D big red digits and a simple air cal. has never dropped cal once. and is .1afr away from the autronic one. :down:

    • Hmm... From my experience you get about 0.25° camber change per mm of RUCA length change. So, to correct from -2.5 up to less than -1° (or, more than -1° if you look at the world as a mathematician does) then you'd be making 6-8mm of length change on the RUCA. From a stock length of 308mm, that's 2-2.5% difference in RUCA length. My RUCAs are currently very close to stock length - certainly only 2-3mm different from stock. I had to adjust my tension arms by 6mm to minimise the bump steer. That's 6mm out of 210, which is 2.8%. That's a 2.8% change on those, compared to a <1% change on the RUCAs. So the stock geometry already has worse bump steer than is possible - you can improve it even if you don't change the RUCA length. If you lengthen the RUCAs at all, then you will definitely be adding bump steer. Again, with my car, I recently had an unpleasant amount of bump steer, stemming from a number of things that happened one after another without me having an opportunity to correct for them. I only had to change the tension arm lengths by 1mm to minimise the resulting bump steer. (Granted, I also had to dial out a lot of extra toe-in in the rear, and excessive rear toe-in will make bump steer behaviour worse). Relatively tiny little adjustments having been made - the car is now completely different. Was horrifying how much it wanted to steer from the rear on any significant single wheel bump/dip. And it was even bad on expansion joints on long sweepers on freeway entry/exits, which are notionally hitting both rear wheels at the same time. My point is, the crappy Nissan multilink is quite sensitive to these things (unlike the very nice Toyota suspension!). And I think 99.75% of Skyline owners are blissfully ignorant of what they are driving around on. Sadly, it is a non-trivial exercise to set up to measure and correct bump steer. I am happy to show my rig, which involves nasty chunks of wood bolted to the hub, mirrors, lasers, graph paper targets and other horrors. Just in case anyone wants to see how it is done. I'll just have to set it up to take the photos.
    • What do you have in that bad boy ? Ill go with the 725cc since I'll be going with Nistune ( would definitely like more engine protection but Haltech is too far out of reach at the moment... plus, Ill probably have a pretty safe tune as its a daily, not gonna be chasing peak power 24/7 ahahah ). Are Xspurt a safe choice?  Pete's great. He didnt mention anything about traction arm length so I reckon it may be good. When I get some new wheels/tire later down the road I'll ask him about it and get his opinion on em. I heard from Gary that you've got the bilsteins too, are you running the sway bars too? and what other suspension goodies do you have installed or would recommend?
