Hi all..

I'm after some help in tuning up my RB20det which is sitting in my 260z.. I've got a fully programable EMS computer with a Handset.

The car came with the ems but wasn't running due to some mechanical issues.. All of these issues are now sorted except the EMS. The car seems to be running fine but it doesn't produce ANY power... The turbo spools up and the hand set reads 10psi boost but there is no difference between on boost and off boost.

Was wondering if anyone on here was running an EMS that could give me an idea of the settings that you are using.

The only modification to this one is a larger VG30 Non ball bearing turbo + 2.5" exhaust.

Is it possible to copy maps and settings from one EMS to another?

I'm in Adelaide and any help would be appreciated!.

Have you got the ems cable to connect the ems to a laptop or pc and the ems software to setup using laptop or pc. If not their url is http://www.fuel-injection.com/. you can download it there.

Which ems have you got mine is the Duel Sport.

Skyrine-Dave,

thanks for that mate that will definatly be of help, what sort of power did you get out of it with those mods? did the EMS make much of a difference for you?

51Jay, the model number is QI-4 from around about 1999 so i'm not sure if that means its a dual sport or not.

R31-GTSX, thats a dual sport model. I have the QM4/QI4.

With that setup it ran 236hp@wheels. Which really isnt that great considering what is done to it.

When you go into setup it should have a 1, or 2 down the bottom right? i think. That indicates which map you are on. I havent used this before but i think you can have a tune for say outright HP or a tune for economy and switch between the two.

Dave

236hp isn't bad at all!

i'd be pretty happy with that, do you have a fuel pressure regulator on yours? if so what fuel pressure are you running on boost and off boost.?

A couple of other things i have to do first is install a surge tank and some larger diameter fuel lines then i'll hook it up to the lap top and punch in the numbers you gave me... then i'll go from there.. Its a good start!

I'm just not sure how different mine would be running a lower spec fuel pump than yours.. plus the zed's not intercooled as yet.

Thanks again.

Trav

i have another tune sheet i can send ya, but it was tuned for a GTR intercooler, and when i ran my setup on that tune with a stocko 32 cooler the car ran waaay to rich and managed to foul a set of plugs in 2 weeks.

I got the stocko reg on my car, as i have 460cc injectors going in soon. Dont know if i should get a rising rate reg or not.

as for fuel pump. I had the richer map tuned for a R33 GTS-t fuel pump. So whatever pump you have should be fine.

    • But seriously, can we ask for the results of the "tip a bottle of metho into a nearly empty tank" experiment?
    • Hang on. Let me get this straight. The desire is to have coilovers, BC in particular, to be MORE comfortable on Sydney roads than stock suspension? Well, that's obviously not right. BCs have crude damping design at the very best, and typically hard spring rates. BC stands for Billy Cart. And then, the desire is to put in some shitty old worn out stockers, to get it blue slipped and then put the BCs back in? And then.....what? Not worry about getting pulled up by the Plod? Because you seem to have raised a worry about paying for engineering (which actually does solve all your legality problems) and still getting pulled up.... but the only problem there is that if/when that happens you have to show your paperwork at the inspection station. Whereas, if you just swap in borrowed shitty old stockers to get it slipped now, and then you get defected in the future, you have to go find more shitty old stockers then too. You course of action looks like this set of options: Buy brand new stock type dampers, and springs. probably cost a bit more than $1k all up, but will last for the remaining life of the car. Put them in, pass inspection, drive on them forever more. Hell, they could even be really nice Bilsteins and Kings or other lower&stiffer springs if you wanted. Get the car engineered as is. ~$1k. Buy new Shockworks coilvers (or MCA) and also pay for engineering. You're spending a lot more here. But these will be the best things that you could drive around on.
    • Might be worthwhile hitting up Facebook's groups, I know most of them contain terrible people and scammers - however you might be able to find someone that's in Sydney with factory suspension you could purchase and/or hire. Just do not send any form of money anywhere, in person cash only.
    • Thanks @Duncan Ride height is fine. I think it's almost stock tbh. Happy to share a pic. I don't actually have a regular mechanic as haven't lived in Sydney too long. Could you or anyone recommend any shops in Sydney?
