Is there any AEM EMS tuner in SA?

[9krpm]

Do you guys know of any tuner in SA that is familiar with this product?

I want to increase my boost, upgrade injectors and get a stand alone engine management system. I love to get the Power FC but it's not available for my car This toy has got a lot of potential though.

Many thanks in advance

[Martin Donnon]

Not the same company. AEM from the US isnt AEMS from Melbourne. Ive used earlier versions of the box, pretty good actually.

[9krpm]

[Martin Donnon]

Yes

Unfortunately its the demographic you are in. Most that get pulled over and defected richly deserve it. Some, like you, dont. The Police have a very clear mental picture of what they consider to be 'troublemakers' drive, and Skylines one of them. If you dont want the hassle, drive a Falcon. If you dont want to drive a Falcon, make sure your car is bone stock.

There is no easy answer

Bit of topic but since Martin has posted a few reply to differant questions.....

Have you had any experience with the new Tomei Reytec ECU's? I am deciding what to do about programable managment on mt 32GTSt, and was thinking about either this or the AP Engineering version of the PowerFC? Any input would be greatly appricieated, as I will be getting you to tune it

sorry to hijack the thread a bit

Thats a bit of a cop out isnt it? This 'demographic' you talk of is the readers of the magazines. WE pay THEIR wages, our money goes in YOUR pocket, through continued support. Why the hell cant they try and do something posistive in response. If we were all indigineous people would everyone just turn their backs on us and say 'you belong to xxx demographic - bad luck.

HPI and SPEED survive because people like to mod cars - why should people who like to mod cars be persecuted and singled out.

Also, didnt you say you would take regency to task if it was found that James cerfiro got defected because it appeared in an article in HPI? What happened there?

You advertise your illegal mods to the XR6 turbo you drive, page by page and step by step, as you did with your soarer. People read these magazines for inspiration and ideas on what mods to do, yet you can sit back and essentially say stiff shit, buy a falcon?????

No, actually I am way out of line, I appologise - hey everybody, drive falcons and buy Streetmachine - fark this skyline/import crap.

[Steve]

And if your opinion represents HPI and SPEED, guess which mags can smoke me?

[Bl4cK32]

I agree with Steve. Why dont the people in the tuning / import industry make a stand to support the ppl like us who support them?

Why?....cos when we get :shake: up the as$, who do we turn to, when our cars have to be brought back to std. Then when.....sorry, IF we make it through Regency who will happily mod our cars again???

[Martin Donnon]

Steve,

Point 1: The XR6 has been drive cycle tested for ADR3700 and 2800 and passed type compliance on both fronts. It costs money, but it can be done. Speak to a consulting engineer and pay the expenses if you want to do the same for your car. Have a considered approach when questioning the legalities of peoples products and actions, particularly when you represent a business on this forum. My Soarer, like your car, was in full contravention of these same ADRs, and, no, should never have been driven on the road.

Point 2: I do not agree with the way cars are being defected at the moment. It would appear that minorities are being singled out for persecution, rather than the whole lot being treated as a level, and equally accountable playing field. Every car on the road has to meet its original ADR type compliance, or have proven engineering documentation to show same, regardless of brand or manufacturer, to in part avoid potentially being defected. That is, and always has been the law. My point is, and was, while there is so much unnecessary 'bling' around, they will look past the local heaps, and like blue hatted Bower Birds go straight for the bright shinies.

As for Cefiro scenario? RTA refused to make a comment. Publishing companies also arent too interested in the potential scuffle with the Police Media Unit - a VERY powerful group of lawyers. All I can suggest, is that if you dont want to be defected, then adhere to the law. If you dont want a legal car - and theres nothing fun about that - then dont draw attention, be careful where you drive etc. etc. Thats why my Soarer did 1500km in a year...which is one reason I got rid of it.

Steve... steve.. steve,

why is it your post is always in such anger over Regency? I dont like what they do just as much as you do but you have to get a grip and get over it man. Ive been defected probably more times than you. Trust me. Yet I find myself being more upset towards SAPOL than the people at regency.

I understand your point but every single post you put up seems to eventually come to the regency subject. And you always end the post with words of anger! Anyway, good luck with your campaign.

[MattR]

Well said martin if you want a fast illigal car try to keep it a standard looking as possible, wheels, exhaust etc etc and let all the wankers with big crome rims on there commonwhores get pulled over, if you want a hot car get every thing engineered and cover your arse at every stage. Sorry just my point of view and that doesnt mean much

[TIMMMAYYY]

from what i gather, and what everyone else says, engineering means nothing anymore.

Steve im right behind you mate, couldn't agree with you anymore!!!!

NA, You're havin a go at steve, who's the only person that probably any of us know, whos trying to do something about the bullshit that goes on @ regency, and the cops picking on us on the road.... the only person with the balls, or the brains, to at least have a go and do something about this crap thats going on... yet you tell him to get a grip and get over it?? You're dreamn mate, you need to get the grip and realise that you're being walked all over when you get defected, and intend on letting it stay that way..

If 600PS was defected ,and it was fully engineered, and regency said nar and 2 go and get ****ed, Im sure you'd be complaining too.

NA, You're havin a go at steve, who's the only person that probably any of us know, whos havin a go at the idiots are regency... the only person with the balls, or the brains, to at least have a go and do something about this crap thats going on... yet you tell him to get a grip and get over it?? You're dreamn mate, you need to get the grip and realise that you're being walked all over when you get defected, and intend on letting it stay that way..

1. No im not having a go at Steve. As I said, he should cool it alittle.. Sometimes its no point being so upset at things that are out of our control. IF he can change it, great.

2.Im not as you put it dreaming. I dont think I am being walked all over. I know my cars are defectable. Do not Comply with the SA Road Traffic ACT and has items that are not ADR approved. So what? When I drive it, I have to be smart to know that there is a chance for me to get defected and I take the risk. at the end of the day, ITS MY DECISION to have such a car.

[TIMMMAYYY]

so basically.... you're more upset with SAPOL.... stop complaining, get a grip and live with it...
