Mine is not a daily and i tend to drive hard 90% of the time so i doubt the O2 has much input. Its only had 1 tune on E85 so i'm not concerned (still uses less fuel than my patrol )

I don't see how you can have such little variation in fuel use considering how much extra fuel is needed with ethanol.

Edited by Bond

because mine is a daily/streeter. so it sees a lot of time at cruise.

and it doesn't seem to need all that much extra to give me a lambda of 1 on e-flex

but yes I haven't done a full tank driving it hard 90% of the time. Will find out when i finaly get it onto the track :verymad:

Edit : Also consider 11l/100Km > 14l/100Km as a percentage. My consumption went up 27% Which is crack on ball park for ethanol

techedge will set me back $478 or some shit after GST and freight tho :P

then I gotta get it installed....fark knows where I'll get that done, unless I can somehow just replace my factory o2 sensor with the techedge and plug that into the v44.

i can install it if you want.

Pat, it can do wideband closed loop or use the stock narrow band one.

this is the one I've got.

Looks cheap and nasty, but responds fast, is accurate compared to Ed's dyno one. and cheep cheep!

does it have a 0-5v output for the ECU?

this one is 411 + delivery if you get the 2j9 + 7200 sensor + LA1 52mm display

thats the updated version of mine and outputs to the ECU flawlessly.

Yeah man that's exactly what I wanted to get....BUT, it's $411 PLUS GST PLUS DELIVERY. They don't count GST in their original prices :) from memory, it came to like $478

Could you please define to me exactly what "closed loop" means in this sense? I keep getting the impression you tell it you want 12:1 AFR, and it will adjust fuel constantly to keep it there....if that's the case, you'd only need to adjust timing when swapping to E85...correct? that doesn't sounds quite right to me, hence my confusion...but it could be the case lol

Closed loop only gets used during idle and cruise, where the ecu looks at the narrowband voltage, which only fluctuates from 0-1v and can only measure between 14-15 AFR... so the ecu keeps the voltage in between 0 and 1 volt by adding and taking out fuel. thus keeping the AFR's at i nice 14.7/1

This is my understanding of it anyway...

narrow band closed loop aims for 0.5v which is 14.7:1 and is only used during light load/cruise, you can not use it to accurately aim for other ratios much beyond that, wideband closed loop aims for what ever afr you tell it to and can work even when you are using 100% throttle @ 7000rpm if you want.

if you want i can give you the map from my ECU Pat and you can take a look.

wideband closed loop would be awesome! is that what your gonna be running? I'm very much limited to what NIStune can do.

I'll be getting the software tomorrow when I'm "hard at work" and have my laptop there hehehe

so i'll grab it off ya then. cheers!

i have been running it for the past 2 years, you can get some excelent cruise econ running 15.5-16:1 with very low throttle

i just emailed the file to you as i dont have them at work.

    • So stock ECU does not like anything above 10 psi?  That Nistune one is just for "try" if it will be any different, I know it need to be tune for that. I know but YOU may know about these problem but i/we dont. They few little Skylines here let alone people who know anything about tham so that is why iam asking here  
    • So now we have a radiator with no attachments whatsoever. It lifts up with a particularly tight spot between the drivers side air box mount and the lower radiator outlet, but if you've got this far you will sort that too. This is the lower mounts with the rad out so you can see where the rubber bushes go, it is a straight shot upwards Done! Assembly is the reverse of disassembly, with blood less likely to be shed.
    • Right, onto the second last trick. The Air Con condenser is mounted to the front of the radiator and stays in the car when the radiator is removed. There are 2x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the condenser to the radiator, remove those The bottom of the condenser is attached to the radiator with clips. You need to lift the condenser out of those clips and clear (up, then forward). f**ked if  could work out how to do that last bit with the front bumper on. I hope you can, and you share the trick.  Bumper removal probably deserves its own thread one day once I've recovered the will to live, but basically you need to remove the wheels, front inner guard liners (clips and 10mm headed bolts), the self tapper between the guard and the bumper at the rearmost point of the bumper (same as an R32 that bit), any remaining clips at the top/front of the grill, an absolute bastard design with a plate that holds the top of the bumper above the headlight each side (only 1 bolt which is tricky to get to, but the plate catches 2 places on the bumper and must be removed....carefully!) and push clips between the bumper and guard under the headlight. If you've done all that you will be faced with wiring for the fog lights on both sides and in ADM Q50 RS at least, 4 nasty tight plugs on the driver's side for the ADAS stuff. So, the clips at the bottom look like this on drivers side (looking from the front) And on the passenger side (also from the front), you can see this one is already out Clearance on both of these are super tight; the condenser needs to move up but the upper rad support mount prevents that, and the radiator can't move down far because it is (rubber) mounted. Once you achieve the impossible and drop the condenser off those mounts so it does not stop the rad moving, you are good to go
    • OK, next the shroud needs to come off and there are a couple of tricks. Firstly, there is a loom from near the passenger side headlight to the fans, coolant temp sensor etc and there is no plug to undo.  In my case I was OK to leave the shroud on top of the engine so I just undid the passenger side fan plug and about 10 of the clips which gave enough free wire to put it aside. The fan plugs were super tight, the trick I used was a small falt screwdriver to push down on the release tab, then a larger flat screwdriver to lever the plug out of the fan unit....be careful with how much force you apply! If you need to remove the shroud altogether for some reason you will have to deal with all the plugs (tight) and clips (brittle)....good luck. I removed all of the clips and replaced them with cable ties that I will just cut next time. Also, in the Red Sport / 400R at least, the intake heat exchanger reservoir hose is bolted to the shroud in 2 places with 10mm headed bolts; so remove them (the hose stays in the car; no need to undo it at the t fittings down at the radiator lower mount. Once you've dealt with the HX hose and the wiring loom, there are 3x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the shroud to the radiator; remove those.   The shroud then lifts out of the bottom mounts where it sits on the radiator, up and onto the engine out of the way. Simples
    • Ok, disregard my “rate them” comment, sorry for my unrealistic input
