You got a dyno readout on that R34 Trent

also what supporting mods did it have im looking at trying for around 270 myself

and was it a standard auto ?

will get it up 2moro, yes std auto.

Trent, I still cant convert my car to run with the MAP sensor. it idles okay, but if i put my foot down it hesitates then revs. its also hard to start. i spent 2hrs getting the maps right, even used the inj map to adjust fuel but its still not good enough to drive around with.

any clues?

Hey guys, i've picked up an innovate LC-1 - have many ppl connected these to their emu?

any detailed setup/instructions for R34 GTT?

i was talking to a guy in perth that had everything setup, but the emanage forum is down and i've lost contact

Hey Pear,

Your lucky day - I'm the guy from Perth :P

I've attached my notes - An Excel Spreadsheet with 3 tabs. each tab shows a device (LC-1, Old Oxygen Sensor, EMU) and what the cables were connected to and should be changed to.

I made my own EMU front panel connector using a internal computer audio plug - worked better than I expected. The hardest bit was running the wiring between the engine bay and the cabin.

LC-1 is working great - I've used the EMU auto tune function to help home in on my desired AFR. On to Knock and ignition timing now, but I've hit some sort of turbo pressure issue I've got to sort.

I'm also spewing the emanageforums site is down - what's going on there!

Hope this helps,

Scags

LC1_Skyline_ER34.zip

you are pretty sort after guy at the moment Scags LOL

Im also chasing that info

And on the emanage forums I believe it had something to do with the stockmarket crash

Pear knows more

Id like to say this is probably the best info on the EMU i've seen on the net and I've been pouring a ton of hours in searching, much thanks to URAS and all others who know what they are doing with the EMU,Anyway..

Had a few questions, Ive got a series 2 Rb25det ive stuffed into an S14, all S14 wiring gutted and nothing but R33 wiring in it. (yeah I live in the states)

Ive got an EMU that I'm about to wire in and plan on doing the AFM elimination.

So after I log the greddy pressure sensor vs. RPM and get as much data as possible and put that into the airflow output map and interpolate the rows and such, get the numbers looking and working good... Im guessing im going to max those numbers somewhere in that layout and hit boost cut.

Ok so I clamp the voltage rite before that happens...now the ECU never sees the voltage but i still need fuel and timing correction beyond that point, soooo.....

Do I go to the injector and ignition maps and put in the values i need there? or do I use the aux. map or something else?

Also what if some of the values inputted into the airflow output map overlap something you've put in these other maps? which one wins?

Hi guys. I've just installed EMU to my car and have 2 problems. The ignition timing in the datalog show that it currently running on 110degree btdc when idling and it doesn't change when the rpm change. And also the EMU didn't sensing any knock when the engine under full load and show 0 knock on the datalog. What did I do wrong? Is it the wiring or setup in the jumper or software? Anyone can help? Thanks.

Edited by bnr32_700ps
for starter your knock should be set to resonant 7.02

and as for the 111 deg problem its a wiring prob i believe or jumper setting

Hey Haines,

How certain are you we should have our kncock set to "resonant" and 7.02? I ask because I want to be sure I can trust the signal I am getting before I advance my timing much more. Isn't the frequency dependent on the bore and stroke of the engine? Does that mean it wouldn't be the same for different models of skylines? I had a good thread going on this before emanageforums went down :( So much information lost in a matter of senconds. I hope someone is able to revive the information that had been gathered at that site...

You said I'm sort after? Who else is looking for me? :(

Ive found that it works best when you do a voltage clamp vs. throttle position. nothing else has worked properly for me.

What you can do is do a map trace and when you feel 'boost cut' change your values in the Airflow Output Map (where you're putting your voltage clamp data) to a lower value to bypass it.

the map trace will tell you which values you're reaching 'boost cut' on so all you need to do is change the values in the highlighted boxes.

the WORST issue i had was cold start with the MAP sensor running. it would run like an absolute pig. i ended up buying an EEE PC just to have in the car with only the emanage software installed so i can adjust the cold start voltage when i turn it on in the mornings!

The problem is on cold start the AFM voltage is around 1.70 on idle, then when it gets to operating temp it sits at ~ 1.06. the 1.06v on cold start makes it run like crap and VERY lean. I even tried playing with the temp adjustment map to add fuel but it only worked to a maximum of +20%, i needed at least 40% adjustment for the afr's to be anywhere near the right value to idle properly.

Trent, do you have a fix for this?

So you're still keeping the airflow output map on greddy sensor when doing all this right? and doing all the clamping there and not even using the boost limiter map?

Hmm not had this issue, i would try juggling the afm voltage in the output map to mid way between the two, bit on the rich side at idle say 12.5-13 instead of 14 ish and see if you can get enough cold start in there. without playing with it here it is a bit hard sorry.

    • As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year. 
    • I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
    • Hi,  Just joined the forum so I could share my "fix" of this problem. Might be of use to someone. Had the same hunting at idle issue on my V36 with VQ35HR engine after swapping the engine because the original one got overheated.  While changing the engine I made the mistake of cleaning the throttle bodies and tried all the tricks i could find to do a throttle relearn with no luck. Gave in and took it to a shop and they couldn't sort it. Then took it to my local Nissan dealership and they couldn't get it to idle properly. They said I'd need to replace the throttle bodies and the ecu probably costing more than the car is worth. So I had the idea of replacing the carbon I cleaned out with a thin layer of super glue and it's back to normal idle now. Bit rough but saved the car from the wreckers 🤣
    • After my last update, I went ahead with cleaning and restoring the entire fuel system. This included removing the tank and cleaning it with the Beyond Balistics solution, power washing it multiple times, drying it thoroughly, rinsing with IPA, drying again with heat gun and compressed air. Also, cleaning out the lines, fuel rail, and replacing the fuel pump with an OEM-style one. During the cleaning process, I replaced several hoses - including the breather hose on the fuel tank, which turned out to be the cause of the earlier fuel leak. This is what the old fuel filter looked like: Fuel tank before cleaning: Dirty Fuel Tank.mp4   Fuel tank after cleaning (some staining remains): Clean Fuel Tank.mp4 Both the OEM 270cc and new DeatschWerks 550cc injectors were cleaned professionally by a shop. Before reassembling everything, I tested the fuel flow by running the pump output into a container at the fuel filter location - flow looked good. I then fitted the new fuel filter and reassembled the rest of the system. Fuel Flow Test.mp4 Test 1 - 550cc injectors Ran the new fuel pump with its supplied diagonal strainer (different from OEM’s flat strainer) and my 550cc injectors using the same resized-injector map I had successfully used before. At first, it idled roughly and stalled when I applied throttle. Checked the spark plugs and found that they were fouled with carbon (likely from the earlier overly rich running when the injectors were clogged). After cleaning the plugs, the car started fine. However, it would only idle for 30–60 seconds before stalling, and while driving it would feel like a “fuel cut” after a few seconds - though it wouldn’t fully stall. Test 2 – Strainer swap Suspecting the diagonal strainer might not be reaching the tank bottom, I swapped it for the original flat strainer and filled the tank with ~45L of fuel. The issue persisted exactly the same. Test 3 – OEM injectors To eliminate tuning variables, I reinstalled the OEM 270cc injectors and reverted to the original map. Cleaned the spark plugs again just in-case. The stalling and “fuel cut” still remained.   At this stage, I suspect an intermittent power or connection fault at the fuel pump hanger, caused during the cleaning process. This has led me to look into getting Frenchy’s fuel hanger and replacing the unit entirely. TL;DR: Cleaned and restored the fuel system (tank, lines, rail, pump). Tested 550cc injectors with the same resized-injector map as before, but the car stalls at idle and experiences what feels like “fuel cut” after a few seconds of driving. Swapped back to OEM injectors with original map to rule out tuning, but the issue persists. Now suspecting an intermittent power or connection fault at the fuel pump hanger, possibly cause by the cleaning process.
