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.

    • Price seems pretty good to me. Also seems a hell of a lot cheaper then buying another vehicle that only ever gets used for towing.  I'm a long way from you mate, I'm a couple of hours out of Brizzy. 
    • New [400]Z, they're available in manual and you don't have to worry about parts scarcity. 
    • Just planning to have the wiring neat and hide as much as possible.
    • The sodium acetate, mixed with citric acid, doesn't actually buffer each other. Interestingly though, if you used Sodium Acetate, and acetic acid, THAT becomes a buffer solution. Additionally, a weak acid that can attack a metal, is still a weak acid that can attack a metal. If you don't neutralise it, and wash it off, it's going to be able to keep attacking. It works the same way when battery acid dries, get that stuff somewhere, and then it gets wet, and off it goes again breaking things down. There's a reason why people prefer a weak acid, and it's because they want TIME to be able to be on their side. IE, DIY guys are happy to leave some mild steel in vinegar for 24 hours to get mill scale off. However, if you want to do it chemically in industry, you grab the muriatic acid. If you want to do it quicker at home, go for the acetic acid if you don't want muriatic around. At the end of the day, look at the above thumbnail, as it proves what I said in the earlier post, you can clean that fuel tank up all you want with the solution, but the rust that has now been removed was once the metal of the fuel tank. So how thin in spots is your fuel tank getting? If the magazine on the left, is the actual same magazine as on the right, you'll notice it even introduces more holes... Well, rust removal in general actually does that. The fuel tank isn't very thick. So, I'll state again, look to replace the tank, replace the fuel hanger, and pump, work out how the rust and shit is making it past the fuel filter, and getting into the injectors. That is the real problem. If the fuel filter were doing its job, the injectors wouldn't be blocked.
    • Despite having minimal clothing because of the hot weather right now, I did have rubber gloves and safety glasses on just in-case for most of the time. Yes, I was scrubbing with my gloves on before, but brushing with a brush removes the remaining rust. To neutralize, I was thinking distilled water and baking soda, or do you think that would be overkill?
