"adaptronic" Engine Management Systems ?

[STATUS]

Yep, I agree the New ECU they are releasing will have both of the above thankfully.

any idea how far off?

[Factory 5]

its out now... and im impressed.

more details to follow

[murrayis]

It's not due out until September or so I thought last time I spoke to Andy.

does anyone have any idea how much the new one will cost, I was hearing word or it almost two years ago from mark at dat who sold me mine

[murrayis]

I think andy mentioned it would be around the $1500 - $1600 mark.

[Factory 5]

i think i was witnessing the tuning of a trial version, so i assumed it was out, but possible incorrect.

hopefully i can get my hands on one, as the ol L24 is begging to be boosted

[murrayis]

yea from what I know there is a couple of problems they are fixing with the interface so i guess its still very beta.

[Factory 5]

spoke to jason, its gonna me a real winner i think, its still getting finalised, but gee it will have some serious features

[murrayis]

It certinaly does!

[Factory 5]

im thinking of getting a 420c with my k rudd money.... anyone else?

I am looking into getting that same version for my 34 GTT have you got yours already and if so what do you think of it?

Also is anyone else running one of these new units on there skyline and what do you think of it?

dragging up a oldish thread...

next to no one is running the new system (E1280S) besides a few test cars down south as its only just been officially released onto the market.... price wired in is something between 2 and 3 grand...

Shit i heard around $1600 from some forum, i think boostcruising.

I'm waiting on its release and testing till i put it on my motor. Just think no point in running a big motor with 1000cc inj with e85 on a batch fire system. Plus i hope it has features like water pump and fan control and hopefully boost and the like. I just want one thing to run the whole car!! If not might go to ViPec or haltech.

Its $1600 for a pre-order, normal price is in line with haltech, vipec etc

[Beer Baron]

I can't believe all the guys using old ones were sitting with their eyes shut and their hands over their eyes shouting that batch fire injection and wasted spark ignition is acceptable from a $1500 ecu in this day and age, and with no temp compensation as andriano pointed out you are risking massive changes in acutal AFR as air density changes so much with temp changes. in this day an age why you would use an ecu with only 4 ign and inj drivers on a six cylinder car is beyond me. there are plenty of good choices for fair money that can PROPERLY run a 6 cylinder engine without having to resort to batch fire and wasted spark. like trent says that pretty much limits their use as a decent entry level ecu for 4 cylinder cars only.

their new model if it has at least 6 drivers for inj and ign will be more useful but at $3,000 it has some pretty stiff competition....

[zebra]

yeah the new one does Beer-man,

the very things you mentioned is why I didnt get one, considering that e85 is around the corner, I didnt want to atempt to run 1200+ cc injectors in batch fire mode

Richard - You will recognise this username from GTIROZ...

E1280S can run 12 ignition outputs and 12 injectors or so (would have to confirm both figures) hence the 12 part of the model.... According to one of my best mates who is the NQ adaptronic installer/tuner/reseller it can be completely customized to the point, yuo can write a macro system for it that say at 49ºC it wont let the car reach 5000rpm but at 50ºc it can to go to limiter etc....

This is all being reproduced by me but thats how it was explained to me by Jason.

Oh and this time instead of hte shitty connectors it has a moulded plug (much like a factory unit).

they are branding it as a "Supercomputer" since it can have functions written into it!

The entry level ecu from them has fan control, boost control.... i know this as i have actually had to use the software interface to set a fair bit of that!

oh and it actually has different modes of firing its just relative to which one goes to each motor for them...

that price might have been unit alone..... the price i said was wired in and everything done and dusted

No offense, but my shitty wolf 3dv4 has rev limit based on water temp, so does my 10 year old autronic. For $3000 i would want some pretty fancy bells and whistles inc plug and play.

Just to clarify, the e1280s is less than 2k.
