I was all set to purchase and build a TechEdge unit, but decided against it.

Innovative are very popular and must sell 10's of 1000's of units. I have mates that use em with only others that cost $1000+ being faster and more solid (read: output stability with altitude change)

Reading the output from something I made myself and then making ignition / fuel changes seemed a little risky to me :P

WB Shootout Test

Paid for by Innovative maybe, but Bosch's spec sheet shows the LSU to move around with age... so having a unit that you can free air calibrate seems to make sense to me (unlike the PLX)

Although some people have had issues with the LC1 (RF noise, heat sensitive etc) they still seem like best option to me. Ordering mine next week to push into Datalogit. XD16 and AuxBox should come in handy too.

My thinking is, many of the units out there are good, and are a god send when they work... not so when they dont - so support was a big + for me.

okay I think they gave replaced it or are sending me back the broken one so I can bury it in my garden somewhere

I like the first option better

So when it gets here Ill reinstall and let you guys know

From what ive been reading on the Innovate sites forum a few ppl have had theres just die on them

Maybe a bad batch

But for the price of the unit $220 landed in oz I think these would be the best buy

I'm using the xd-16 kit with no complaints, logging to the laptop in logworks as well as watching live on the guage, only complaint is I dont think you are able to log ecu parameters (tps, rpm, temps etc) in the logworks program or vice versa- Logging in two seperate programs is a bit of a pain in the arse. Innovative do have modules to take rpm etc but it just gets very messy with three seperate innovative boxes under the dash (plus a fourth for rpm etc) as well as an ecu and cdi unit (Note two of these are tc-4 for egt).

A mate has road tuned using the lm-1 with good results also.

Repost bruv, 8 posts up :wub:

The loggin issue through separate apps is stressing me out too. Using some of Innovative's gear you can log so much stuff... but its still separate from Datalogit

    • Forgot to include this but this is the mid section of my steering rack that looks like it has a thread/can be turned with that notch mentioned in the post:
    • Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.
    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
    • Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention
    • So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34
