What do you guys think of running a innovate wideband into the a V44 on closed loop? The innovates sampling rate is only 12hz so I'm a little worried it isn't ideal for closed loop/WOT corrections.

I'm running an innovate LC-1 with V44 and using closed loop (Wideband V2 setting). To be honest, I'm not sure how much of a difference closed loop works. I think I could see it making corrections to get to the target previously, but now I've retuned all of the light load area using the Mixture Map mode and now it pretty much sits bang on the target even when closed loop is off. I haven't had any experience with WOT tuning though. One beauty of using wideband closed loop is that you can change your target away from 14.7:1. Mine runs a tiny bit leaner at cruise to improve economy.

and you can set far more hysteresis for closed loop operation.... skys the limit

whats the price right now for an r33 gtst?

1650$ is RRP for a link gtst/gtr plug in board . they are pretty strict on it so it should be no more no less . The vipec pricing can be a little wobbly as you have to factor in the state/regional distros and how much markup/discount they are giving to the next supplier in the chain.

link/vipec is still the best ecu in price range by far IMO

so who out there knows if a v88 or link will run a vq35hr? intake and exhaust vct. (hydro int and e,magnetic exh) manual throttles or the twin electric ones..

i dont reckon there would be an issue... happy to ask the question from the horses mouth if you want?

Interesting, how do u compare out of interest

we dont supply anymore, we just send guys to whoever has the best price on what ever ecu best suits their needs (no matter the brand) other wise we need to hold too much stock... having to hold ecus from each brand used to tie up around 15k in stock..... they sell for around $1650 and our tuning charge is between $650 and $850 regardless of ecu, everyone is different.

get a Link G4, the original and cheaper :D

plus you're supporting a Christchurch company... struggling city at the moment :(

from the link website:

History:

Link was one of the very early market entrants twenty years ago. 2010 witnessed a turn-around in the market perception of the Link name thanks to the technical excellence of its product. The launch of the ViPEC brand has seen a new product pitched against high end competitors with outstanding results. Continued clear and unambiguous differentiation is further required to propel the ViPEC name higher

    • Thanks for that, I'll check it all out. I can always do the brakes last anyway if its a problem.  The 16's are super cool, if they do fit I'll cruise around with them for a bit.  
    • Well, that's kinda the point. The calipers might interfere with the inside of the barrels 16" rims are only about 14" inside the barrels, which is ~350mm, and 334mm rotors only leave about 8mm outboard for the caliper before you get to 350, And.... that;s not gunna be enough. If the rims have a larger ID than that, you might sneak it in. I'd be putting a measuring stick inside the wheel and eyeballing the extra required for the caliper outboard of the rotor before committing to bolting it all on.
    • OK, so again it has been a bit of a break but it was around researching what had been done since I didn't have access to Neil's records and not everything is obvious without pulling stuff apart. Happily the guy who assembled the engine had kept reasonable records, so we now know the final spec is: Bottom end: Standard block and crank Ross 86.5mm forgies, 9:1 compression Spool forged rods Standard main bolts Oil pump Spool billet gears in standard housing Aeroflow extended and baffled sump Head Freshly rebuilt standard head with new 80lb valve springs Mild porting/port match Head oil feed restrictor VCT disabled Tighe 805C reground cams (255 duration, 8.93 lift)  Adjustable cam gears on inlet/exhaust Standard head bolts, gasket not confirmed but assumed MLS External 555cc Nismo injectors Z32 AFM Bosch 023 Intank fuel pump Garret 2871 (factory housings and manifold) Hypertune FFP plenum with standard throttle   Time to book in a trip to Unigroup
    • I forgot about my shiny new plates!
    • Well, apparently they do fit, however this wont be a problem if not because the car will be stationary while i do the suspension work. I was just going to use the 16's to roll the old girl around if I needed to. I just need to get the E90 back on the road first. Yes! I'm a believer! 🙌 So, I contacted them because the site kinda sucks and I was really confused about what I'd need. They put together a package for me and because I was spraying all the seat surfaces and not doing spot fixes I decided not to send them a headrest to colour match, I just used their colour on file (and it was spot on).  I got some heavy duty cleaner, 1L of colour, a small bottle of dye hardener and a small bottle of the dye top coat. I also got a spray gun as I needed a larger nozzle than the gun I had and it was only $40 extra. From memory the total was ~$450 ish. Its not cheap but the result is awesome. They did add repair bits and pieces to the quote originally and the cost came down significantly when I said I didn't need any repair products. I did it over a weekend. The only issues I had were my own; I forgot to mix the hardener into the dye two coats but I had enough dye for 2 more coats with the hardener. I also just used up all the dye because why not and i rushed the last coat which gave me some runs. Thankfully the runs are under the headrests. The gun pattern wasn't great, very round and would have been better if it was a line. It made it a little tricky to get consistent coverage and I think having done the extra coats probably helped conceal any coverage issues. I contacted them again a few months later so I could get our X5 done (who the f**k thought white leather was a good idea for a family car?!) and they said they had some training to do in Sydney and I could get a reduced rate on the leather fix in the X5 if I let them demo their product on our car. So I agreed. When I took Bec in the E39 to pick it up, I showed them the job I'd done in my car and they were all (students included) really impressed. Note that they said the runs I created could be fixed easily at the time with a brush or an air compressor gun. So, now with the two cars done I can absolutely recommend Colourlock.  I'll take pics of both interiors and create a new thread.
