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

      I've heard the Tomei USA head gaskets are decent if you want to o-ring the heads but otherwise not recommended.

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The 296mm rotors are the R33 turbo brakes. The 310mm rotors are the R34 turbo brakes. The calipers are nearly the same, but not. They're the same caliper but the R34 caliper has longer legs so that it sits out far enough to go over the rotor. The pads are the same for both. When you say, "I bough tsome EBC"....did you just mean pads? Or rotors? 310mm rotors fit under 17" wheels. There may be some wheels without enough clearance though. I can't fit my fingers between the barrel of my wheel and the "corners" of my R34 calipers, but there is plenty of room behind the spokes. This is on Enkei RPF1. You can fit 324mm rotors inside a 17" wheel, but I'd be willing to bet that it would be close to impossible with the Nissan/Sumitomo caliper (using an adapter, of course), because the Sumitomo caliper is fatter than the Brembo caliper that is supposed to go on the 324mm rotors.

      Hi. Can someone tell me what brakes(and mainly WHERE) can i buy brakes on R34 GTT? I bought some EBC which SHOULD go on my car(i have GT but it has GTT brakes) but it does not fit, Brakes are "too" small(296mm) Are 310mm be good or? I have 17 inch wheel so no "big boys" but for me driving i just need one that fits and i can get here in EU/Czech.

      WGNC34 - floor mats

      Hey. Very valuable information about pitwork, I will pay attention when buying any consumable parts 🙏 As for the carpets - I got a handful of information from nengun, from which it appears that indeed the carpets for the driver's side are OEM. They are not able to show me any pictures due to the long chain of different sales entities but after I place the order, as soon as the goods arrive at the nengun warehouse from which they will send the shipment to me they can send me photos and if my purchase differs from OEM I can immediately return it / cancel the purchase. I think I will give it a try 😉. Of course i'll let you know what's what as soon as i get them P.s. I know the topic is not relevant to the thread, but both nengun and amayama have these SICK 😍 trunk room lamps available. Do you know anyone who ordered them? I need to have one in my car
