fair enough, I cant comment on how the adpatronic works, but the closed look wideband o2 on the EMU I had was rubbish lol, was all over the place, was handy to get a ballpark figure though.

Maybe set it up for the cruise cells and go for a gentle run down the highway see how it goes

i got this one kasko...looks nice ,Bosch sensor..

Ok fellas cause im self confessed wiring retard, can some one gimma a clue to wire this thing up..

Got sensor all plugged in and all, just wondering about power, stereo power work or should I look elsewhere..also engine ground..can i ground this anywhere as well or does it have to be engine??

I am about to bite the bullet and buy one of these:

http://www.plxdevices.com/wideband.php

Can someone please confirm that this will work with:

1) 0-5V wideband input for my FC Datalogit.

2) 0-1V narrowband input to my PowerFC to completely replace my 02 sensor with the wideband Bosch sensor.

I think I will also buy an oil pressure sensor too:

Where would be the best place to tap this sensor into the system? I would like to keep the stock oil pressure sender in the oil cooler/warmer if possible.

Thanks!!!

I own a lot of PLX gear/sensors and they a great!

The wide band kit is extremely accurate and I have benched it against a dyno and other AFR sensors.

It will all work as expected and interface great with a FC Data Logit and apexi power FC.

hmmm I should probably get one of those too!

You could splice into the red ACC wire around your stereo, Ideally it should be supplied from a switched ignition source. Ground can be any part of the chassis just needs to be bare metal so sand back the paint first...

As far as i know you need to make sure the sensor always has supply because they become contaminated very quickly if they are disconnected...

yeah its a nice little unit..

..

^^^thats what i was thinking of doing..just wanted to make sure i wasnt going to get interferance through stereo or anything but should be Ok

It was that or just splice into wires going by the ecu pinout..

the sensor just powers off the gauge...really need to get hold of a wiring diagram I could just hook into the headlights if I knew which bloody wire or fuse it was... :unsure:

    • It's impossible to convey what it will feel like to get the right torque. But you can develop a feel for it. A 900mm breaker bar is.....f**king huge. I only use a normal ~400mm one. But with 900mm being very nearly a metre, and the right torque being in the order of 100Nm, then you're going to need a bit over 100N of force, which is about 10 kg. So if you practice using the bar pulling up, instead of pushing down, then it will be about the same effort as lifting a 10kg bucket of water. That's what the pressure against your fingers should feel like. Ish. If you use a more typical length breaker, then it's about twice that. So a good 20 litre bucket, or a little bit more.
    • Also, if anyone has a torque wrench around Williams Landing area and can lend it to me for like 5 mins - I got 4 bottles of Furphy left and I’ll throw that in with a Happy meal 😂
    • So today I decided to bleed my brake fluid, which meant to the wheels came off the car at my garage for the first time. I only had a 90cm breaker bar with me and I noticed that some 1 or 2 lug nuts were a bit hard to get loose (from when the shop did the coilovers) Now.... when it came to putting them back on, I didn't want to put all my weight and overtighten them. So I hand tightened as much as possible and then put normal pressure on the edge of the breaker bar and tightened it until I couldn't turn it anymore without putting in an effort. Do you think that is tight enough? Or is that still too tight?  They are tighter than finger tight. Last thing I want is to have them strip or warp sh*t. But hard times mean I can't just go down to Supercheap and get a torque wrench 🥺
    • Dunno what to tell you, when I look at it on Consult I can see this warmup timing map kicking in around 40C coolant temp and it sticks around for a while:  At part throttle on the normal base timing map it peaks around ~43 degrees of timing or something like that, this warmup timing map drops it to like 12-15 degrees. 
    • I don't think that's what you're seeing. Something else doing that. The only time I've seen it get so retarded is when it's trying to control idle (in which case we're not talking about mapped timing tagets anyway) and when there is an extreme coolant temperature sensor fault. The RB26 ECU is essentially the same as the 20 ECU and I knew that ging inside out. There is no facility for it to retard that heavily on cold start. The OEMs never used to do it back then. I mean, shit, the catalyst is abotu 3 miles down the exhaust anyway. Early light-off was just a twinkle in some EPA arsehole's eye back then, not a regular engine control strategy.
