Has anyone wired one of these into a CA? I'm reading the install guide and I can see it says if you're using low impedance injectors, which CAs and R32 GT-Rs are by default, that you will need a dropping resistor, is that right? I thought the dropping resister was only needed if you were putting high impendance injectors into a low impedance car?

Or is the resistor needed for the Emanage's benefit?

I don't have the emu, was looking at a cheap one.

A remap isn't available locally and if I'm driving 6hrs return to get a tune I'd rather it be on something that allows me to adjust it later or at least do data logging.

I know I can buy a Nistune but the emu was much cheaper (yes I realise they are two different devices).

Trying to avoid forking out $440 for a new nistune and software. I have an SAFC2 and just need some timing control (yes I realise everything is better than an SAFC) but as it's a track car it only needs to perform properly at WOT, which at the moment it more or less does.

I know it looks like this thread is dead, but I was hoping there might be someone on here that can give me some feedback, well here goes, if anybody is out there.

I've read through this thread searching for a possible solution for a problem I'm having. Car ran fine before installation. Issues I'm having at the moment are, 1st since installing emu, car is hard to start, wants to flood. I have to open the throttle to get it to start. I have since then cut 20% fuel in the lower coolant temp enrichment tables to get it to start without throttle input, but it is still momentarily rich for about 20 seconds, then leans out to be normal. 2nd, when I try to advance igniton timing, it goes all wacky in the areas I add timing. In the logs, it is really fuzzy, with crazy spikes anywhere from 10 to 40 degrees advance, when in the map I have .5 degree advance. 3rd, I can't seem to get the engine anti stall to work for nothing, maybe the other problems I'm having are associated to this also though. I have double checked the ignition firing order and it is wired up according to the top of this thread. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

    • They're all horrible. X-Trails have had a nasty sounding 4cyl since forever, no matter what engine family it came from. The CVTs only made that worse. Then the whole Renault thing only made every Nissan that was contaminated by them even worse again. The only fun I've had in a X-Trail was having it blown sideways across a frozen Minnesota highway at 90 mph trying to make it to the airport to get out of the frozen hellhole of Hoth. Nearly died. Was great fun.
    • Alrighty, I'll have to grab a couple pics and type out something soon in another post. I haven't driven a modern X no, this would be the first one really. Yeah the rental boxes are always cheap as chips right? So I'd doubt that anyone was handing out GTs to go and abuse. But I s'pose I could be wrong for sure. New cars these days though? Pretty unimpressed with what I see now; 20 years and all that, like you said. It just kind of worked out to have these two cars now. I'm pretty pleased with that, don't need much else. I'm sure you lads are right about the temps and for sure, you wouldn't have much time to drive 'em down there if you all were like me. I do hate sweating all over the seats though😆
    • Let large companies that are making money off selling kits do the preliminary engineering for you. If they all do -10, then that is all you'll ever need. 
    • Hopefully it ends up being something manageable, like a hone, rather than a full bore—it would be a huge relief if it’s not as bad as it looks. Hang in there; these setbacks are annoying, but it sounds like you’re handling it as smartly as possible.
    • At the end of the day, it’s all about understanding the odds and being comfortable with the potential cost, whether it’s horsepower on a build or chips on a roulette table. And I have to say, the Laine example made me laugh—some people really do embrace that carefree, “roll and see” attitude!
