I have a AEM Wideband and afc neo

chat to him via pm, he mailed me a chipped ecu, which we then setup on the dyno with safc-2,

got 206kw then changed the turbo to a GT3076 now 240kw same remap chip

Ok thanks I will do that

hey Toshi quick Q for ya ... you remapped my GTT about a year ago, pretty happy with it but I've always (even before your remap) had crappy fuel economy. So I just got a new Nissan o2 sensor installed but I've been told I need to reset the ECU for it to learn everything again and send correct air in etc.

If I reset my ECU, will I lose the tune that you've set up for me ie. AFRs and timing ??

Reset means take off battery terminal?

ECU data is never change.

How did you check lean fuel?

Did you check on dyno?

If fuel is getting lean I think AFM dirty or fuel pump problem.

If you worry about fuel , please come to me.

I will check AFM volt and A/F.

There are 2 methods of resetting the ECU apparently ..disconnecting the battery and pressing brakes for a couple of mins or shorting the fusebox with a wire (according to Nissan workshop manual) .. I'm assuming both methods do the same thing.

What do you mean by lean fuel? AFRs ? I don't think I'm running lean .. I believe my AFRs are about 11.5:1 which is what you tuned it at. I checked the AFRs again about 6 months ago on the dyno and they were still the same.

But as I said, I was getting the crap fuel economy even BEFORE you remapped the ecu ..and remapping didn't change the fuel economy.

Anyway, my question is .. will resetting the ECU erase the AFRs/ignition timing that you tuned ? ie. will I lose my remap tune by resetting the ECU ?

Excuse me for butting in but I think his answer will be NO.

He must be using a daughterboard to tune and program a chip which he then swaps with your original.

It then cannot be written to or erased.

Toshi you seem to do such a great job but I live in Perth.

If you read this can you pls let me know if you know of anyone in Perth who does similar work.

The Nullabor is a long road!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Delta Force sorry I miss under standed.

Remap data is never change.(if you reset etc)

fletch63 I do not know remap shop in WA.

Im using H8 plcc.

Its never change data.

I am able to send remap ecu.

Im remaping for many WA skylines.

Some auto skyline got 200kw at wheel.

Also hiflow turbo got 220kw.

I always disconnect the battery after tinkering, service etc.

get all power out of the cars system, leave for a while.

reset battery and drive

wont lose Toshi tune, or safc / sitc settings etc.

about to change my 02 sensor too. no issue to it. :laugh: +1 to Toshi !

thanks toshi,

I am definately 100% interested

How does it work?

Do we do exchange or do I have to send you mine (which means my car is off the road)

How much ???

How long does it take?

Are you Japanese?

If so konichiwa (my wife is Japanese)

If not sorry Im an idiot

How much is boosting?

How much is A/F now?

Currently I am on 10 lbs of boost and my Wideband is reading 10's by the time I hit 4 lbs of boost. I am running 40 psi on my nismo fuel regulator and my AFC is zeroed out.

Yes, I am Japanese.

Just swap my remap ecu and your std ecu.

its exchange.(if you want to use your ecu I can mod your ecu)

Cost $450

take under 1week.

when you reset the ECU its likely to do a standard idle adjustment and check standard sensors

thats about it, theres no magical self, auto AFR adjust etc, its just a quick power on self test

from memory it throws in 2 deg of extra timing until it see's detonation and then backs off the timing

wether this is via the dropping to the penis fuel map or just using quick ign shift, but yeah 2 deg shift, then wait for detonation

i have no known evidence or possible reasoning behind

- auto adjustment of AFRs

- self tuning for fuel economy

- any other assumptions from an ECU reset

    • Update: Tunehouse looked into the problem and identified a wiring issue between the camera unit and the connector. They managed to get it working , but did warn me at some point it will stop working again. From their perspective it is unserviceable and will need replacement. They did some research and found that the new replacement camera would be Approx $1400 supply only (their fitting cost would be $190) . They did provide the part number (28442-JL05B) and a quick google of the part number shows that these are rather expensive brand new (seemingly no longer in manufacture) for the places that still have them in stock, with the used option potentially presenting  the same issue down the track at some unknown point. They are happy for me to supply the part so that they can fit it. Decisions, decisions... I can definitely recommend Tunehouse (thankyou Vee37!). Cost for the diagnosis was as quoted  ($190) , car was ready on time and communication was top notch. Their workshop is super clean and modern, and there was plenty of car candy parked out the front on the day I went.   Would definitely go back.   
    • to fix the voltage drop issue I swapped out the old 150amp alternator which turns out is a brand known for having issues and replaced it with the black 180amp alternator beside it 
    • For anyone interested, the Way Back Machine has that Japanese website archived with pictures, etc: https://web.archive.org/web/20051023225805fw_/http://www.a31cefiro.com/air_con.htm "Simply swapping the wiring of the harness will not allow it to function properly. For the outdoor air sensor and sunlight sensor, disconnect the wiring connected to CN1-11 of the air conditioning harness from the harness and connect the sensor side wiring to earth. For the indoor air sensor, disconnect the wiring connected to CN2-3 of the air conditioning harness from the harness and connect the sensor side wiring to earth. The connector PIN numbers listed here are the genuine A31 PIN numbers. To avoid incorrect wiring, check with a tester before wiring. Also, disconnect the wiring in a location close to the sensor. The disconnected harness side wiring will not be used, so be sure to insulate it." Wish someone sold a conversion harness to just plug-and-play a Kouki 180sx digital climate control into C33/A31. I'm decent with wiring but feeling kinda lazy about taking this on. Edit: Did some more digging and found a helpful Minkara blog post about the conversion as well: https://minkara.carview.co.jp/userid/1831116/car/1360568/2284209/note.aspx "After installation is complete or the battery is replaced, you need to go into self-diagnosis mode and set the internal air recirculation. The way to do it is to "hold OFF with the key on for more than 5 seconds, set the number to 5, then press 卍→C." ↑↑↑It probably won't make sense unless you actually try it (・∀・)." Lol wtf
