Hey guys as topic states I'm looking at buying either one and using it to tune my s2 R33 GTST.

Just curious to know if anyone is Using any of the above piggyback ECU's.

I dont know much about the Greddy Emanage, Can someone please explain whats the deal with all these harnesses? I have No idea whats they on about?

And if anyone is currently using any of the systems a product review would be grat. How they rate it how easy was it to tune?

Anyone know good tuners form Emanage in Melbourne?

Thanks, Any help would be great =]

harness is something that allows you to literally 'plug' the emanage / safc into your car. without this, you have to manually splice a million wires into your ecu's wiring. this may or may not involve headaches. it did for me on my turbo starlet as there was little info about the wiring available, and there was no slack in the ecu wiring and it was right on the transmission hump and firewall

emanage has ability to tune fuel and ignition timing, you just need the ignition timing harness (this is autmoatically includedif you purchase the wire in harness for your car). it uses a very user friendly tuning program. i've had 2 emanages tuned by tuners who had never touched an emanage before, one actually tried to talk me out of it, but then decided he loved it and has since then been reccomending it to others. the other tuner loved it too.

i'm unsure if the safc2 does ignition timing too?

no safc2 doesn't do ignition timing, none of the safc's do. emanage would be the better option as it has way more features, but it all depends on if you can find someone to tune it. you need the link cable and software to tune an emanage. safc is an easy install, like 7 wires. emanage, unless you get the plug in harness, is like 30.

Anybody know a good tuner in Melb for Emanage Blue?

And with an Emanage blue...

What harnesses do i need to get with it?

To What i been told.. u need a different harness to run certain components? Or am i totally wrong?

Definitely give Chasers a call (03) 9687 7118 for tuning service.

Trent at Status tuning is the god in melbourne when it comes to tuning the emanage, both the blue and the ultimate.

you need the ecu itself, the main harness and the ignition and injecter harness. so three (3) harness's.

if your unsure speak to trent. hes on this forum under the username URAS

the ultimate is much better than the blue allowing you to remove AFM along with plenty of extra options doing a quick search will find you the thread about the ultimate.

also you cant compare the blue and SAFC, although rather basic compared to other ecu's the blue is far more advanced than the SAFC

    • Have you done the Ignition Sync Wizard in the AEM software?
    • Find out what RPM it was idling at with the IACV unplugged. It's very weird that the rpm didn't change at all, and then it stalled. When it stalls is it nearly like a switch off, like you've turned the engine off? Or is it more stutters and sputters and coughs to death over a few seconds? Or does the RPM just slowly keep going down and down? Have you done a test of trying to start it with the AFM unplugged? Does it still die?     If you Follow Josh's advice on using Nistune to check the voltages (which is a perfect method!) if you see anything out of wack voltage wise, THEN get the multimeter out and read the voltage directly at the sensor. If the two vary, then you're now looking for a wiring issue vs a sensor issue. So be aware, what the ECU sees, may not be what the sensor is actually saying too...
    • You very likely need to get it on a dyno and tune it. My assumption is, you've got an RB25DET tune in it, which has a different manifold, different injectors, and different cams as a minimum. What O2 sensor are you running?   When you say it runs extremely rich from idle all the way to redline, is this just free revving it you see that?
    • I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.
