Emanage Ultimate

[scotty nm35]

I usually got 400 to 500 before the light came on, depending how I drove.

Iain, he had to set it up as a 3 litre as there was no setup for the 2.5, Greddy didn't have it listed.

so look at the fuel gauge instead of KM left in the tank

it will only go down with the fuel you use till you fill it back up

[zei20l]

ok thanks for that scott! ill remember it, and yeah there was no M35 listed in the emanage book

[iamhe77]

this question is kinda void tho..

Not really, yes we can all drive these things hard, but usually (ie during the work week) we would drive the same/similar routes at similar speeds.

Also, I would assume that you know what you "usually"get, yes?

yeah Cihan does a Fantastic job i think i broke his stagea cherrie

Yes this is true, 500km on average around town driving..

tho i still dislike the way the gauge works. often when i do fill up 60L is all that goes in..

[zei20l]

i agree, ive never put more than 71L in and that was below empty..........

[Angus Smart]

i'm still yet to settle down driving it... doesnt look like its going to happen anytime soon tho..

Now as for this emanage ultimate.. how much do they cost, are they easy to find second hand.. are there any certain models you need to look for. and loom for which model is the go?

[zei20l]

you can get them new or 2nd hand, there are no moving parts so they are very reliable. there are 3 looms, main, injector and ignition. im not sure how they are sold these days since i got my ultimate 2nd hand. and the looms are all universal, however you can get plug and play things so you dont have to chop up the factory loom, you cut up the 'extension'. then comes the tuning

but the best thing is if you plug it in and zero all the settings, you can drive it like normal till you can afford to get it to the tuners........

[Angus Smart]

Ah nice, i'll keep looking for one i guess. sounds pretty easy!

[zei20l]

yeah it sounds easy (it sorta is) the hard part is finding the pin outs of the ECU. i have a sheet but when i metered the 12v out, it wasnt there! so i didnt want to risk it....

anyway we have 1 successful install anyway!

[[[d a n n y]]]

sounds like a good plan..

since im going highflow i might be looking into getting a E-manage and tuning it

[scotty nm35]

Dont count your chickens...

The auto doesnt seem to handle the torque. Its like the clutches are slipping, mainly in 4th and 5th. Has anyone done a shift kit install?

[zei20l]

i dont think so on an M35, does it have that same feeling in 'manual' mode? or only in full auto?

[scotty nm35]

Drives fine with the converter locked but slips sometimes when unlocked. Is there a safe mode for the auto? only noticed it after the tune.

[zei20l]

mine slips when its not locked, i just assumed thats the way it was supposed to drive. it brings the torque on smoothly so things dont break or wear out

[scotty nm35]

Does it slip to full revs in 5th tho?

[zei20l]

nope i dont think so! only to about 3-3.2k then its locked all the way to........i guess 180 lol

[andy65b]

MV Automatics in Adelaide have said they can do the shift kit.

Apparently they don't do quite as aggressively as the 2WD cars.

Speak to Mike.

Cheers

Oh, thats right, you still have a speed limiter...

Thanks Andy, its a bit far to take it, but I will call if the local specialist has trouble.
