30mins on a relative stocky to 1.5hrs on a modded example depending on mods.

times are based on comprehensive tune including cruise etc not just the power curve.

I think I read somewhere that the EMU can also remove speed limit cut, boost cut and whatever other fun cut Nissan built into the stock ecu, is this correct and easy to setup? This would be good, eliminating the need for 5 different tiny computers to overcome each issue.

All made the same power or within 1rwkw so it is never a case of whether or not the EMU is capable. These results were the first few shreds of evidence that initially sparked my interest in the product. Mt tuning has shifted from 95% PFC to about 50% PFC 40% EMU and 10% various.

Ill second that. My tunning has varried greatly as well lattely. Used to do Power FC after Power FC. Tunned a blue in an R32 today and the difference is fairly great between the two. The slight lack of fine injector control does make a difference with the blue model but still a good thing.

its prob stated somewhere and missed it so sorry if i have but pretty much what use are saying is if i had both the pfc and EMU they would produce pretty much the same performance and overall tune? by sounds of it can handle bigger turbo/injectors which i thought it couldnt..

iv been looking for 2nd hand pfc and didnt think about these due to didnt know anything but this thread is changing my mind..

has anyone had one tuned at mercury motorsport? as thats where id get it done

thanks for a great thread to open some eyes and get rid of the doubt !!

100% correct in fact i am actually doing a back to back test atm with cats car. D-Jetro pfc versus the Ultimate mafless. results 2mororo night i hope..

This ecu sounds like it shall be very popular soon with the pfc gone, trent would you know when/if they will be producing a harness for GT-T?

unfortunately never as there is not enough demand in japan. The R34 GTT plug is unique. Wire in for GTT only.... it aint hard i did a GT to GTT conversion for a autobarn customer not long ago and it was a piece of piss.

NOTE: WGNC34, GTT and series 2 R33 need jumper 8 set to 12v not 5v as they have internal ignitors. GTT also needs ignition adapter 15921500

Trent I was thinking what would really be helpfull

well from noobs point of view is step by step parameter setting for different model skylines

Stuff like the knock sensor etc kinda threw me and still have me scratching my head as to what they should be set to

Hi Trent,

The voltage measured at the coils is 5v for GTT - when setting it at 12v, why wont this fry the coils?

My car completed installation and tuned with ultimate this week and in the process 3 coils were burnt on the top part just below the connectors - with the setting at 5v. Saw your advice too late and only this morning got my tuner to change and he is apprehensive abt setting to 12v so wud like to know the reasoning behind the change to 12v.

Thanks in advance!

does it have the adapter fitted inside the emanage? part number 1521500. i have done about 6 personally and never burnt coils. if you dont fit the adpater it wll burn coils in a matter of 20-30mins.

I tried to take a pic last night of the adapter installed (the one Trent is talking about)

but my ghetto phone camera sucks on close ups

also changed the jumper on #8 to the 12v system

ill reinstall again today and see if my missfire is gone

i hope it is

*cross fingers

Adapter was fitted(but need to check if is 1521500) and in addition my tuner also put in resistors for the coils. Originally splitfire coils were on and when tuned initially 3 were burnt and suspect the silicon covers on them were not so tough.

Still on 5v setting coils were changed to stock ones and these have not yet succumbed to heat. All the while intermittent misfirings at idle and low-mid end. So this morning change to 12v and after that no issues with misfiring yet. Wl go drive and monitor this aftern.

Pls adv the mechanics for setting the jumper to 12v when the coils are rated at 5v.

Thanks!

    • I certainly fall into the annoyed camp, but glad to hear that if it's happening at low boost then I'm not likely going to blow a turbo and end up with metal shards in my oil. Just feels like it prevents me from really driving it without hesitation and "peak" performance. Wonder if it's the VCAM, it did an impressive job of shifting the torque curve and faster spool, but maybe now it's "too fast" and there's too much air for how open the throttle is.  Based on some other threads, will also do some reading on synchronizing the actuators. They are the default actuators that come on the Garrett's and I would think they would be set the same coming from the factory, but if the turbos don't actually work exactly the same way at the same time as previously mentioned, it would be worth making sure the actuators are actuating together properly
    • I went down this rabbit hole before, ended up sourcing a motor from the UK (I'm in Japan) which also didn't function correctly. With the original motor, I disassembled it and reassembled it and it works somewhat, sometimes. What I could deduce from all my screwing around is that there is calibration of the gears on the inside of the motor and two ramps on the main gear which activate switches that operate the motor and move the sunroof either to retract into the roof or tilt. Where I got stuck was that, it seemed in my case that one or both of the switches that are activated by the ramp on the gear did not always activate and thus the motor did not move, causing it to sometimes not retract or tilt (apologies, I've forgotten which way it didn't work.).  Of course this part is discontinued at Nissan now, it's the same part in the S15 but no other models. I also contacted the manufacturer of the component for schematics - forgot the name, they're based in Gifu - but they declined to share the information due to being bound by an NDA, sadly. Looking through my pictures now, it seems I last had a crack at this in 2022. See, I so kindly wrote "open" and "close" next to the switches. If you figure it out, please do tell me. Those little switches, with the red buttons may need to be replaced.
    • It says 300ZX, does that make it an Aus delivered car? Funny how back in the day I just couldn't care less about Z32's and these days I am just in love with them. Back when Nissan was into pushing the envelope. 🤣
    • Hi guys, just after some guidance with an R34 sunroof that has stopped working correctly. It still opens and closes perfectly fine, but it no longer tilts/vents up or down. As a result, the rear of the glass now sags a bit as it drops down slightly in order to retract into the roof, but now it can't pop upwards into a flush position. I’ve probed the pins on the back of the switch connector with a multimeter and it seems like both switches (for open/close and tilt/vent) still work correctly. Any ideas on what it could be, or where I should even start in terms of diagnosing? I'm sure someone's had this issue before but I haven't been able to find anything online relating to this specific issue, most of the issues are with the seals leaking or the motor failing entirely. Thanks in advance!
