Hi Guys,

I know there is a BIG 'what is E manage' tread in this forum.

There is alot of helpful information in that thread, but I want to know if anyone here has one hooked up to a Skyline??

And what was the result and your experience??

Any issues with the firmware, software etc??

I know there is a newer version of the firmware (v1.36), but don't know exactly what is the difference from the old version.

Just want to know who has one running in their car and how it has perform.

Cheers

:P

I have a cousin who had just done that. Full E-manage suite. He's running .8 bar with a profec e01 which is part of the e-manage suite. Together with this he has the following mods:

trust fmic

hks dump pipe

hks 3" front pipe

high flow cat

3.5" hks hiper cat back

k&n panel filter (stock airbox)

tein ha adj coilovers

18" (235 at front, 265 at rear)

the car's gained an extra 30.5 kw at the wheels.

Any further details contact Peter from Advan at Silverwater.

Strutto, has anyone actually proved that the manual PFC is no good in an auto? I am running a modified manual ECU in my auto and am able to increase the boost to 1bar, although it wont hold until i fit an electronic boost controller. It also changes hard between gears and generally goes better with no real difference in fuel consumption. I have had no adverse effects except for occasional stalling but that was the case with the standard ECU.

Craz0 has tried it... Didn't work for him :(

4door_sleeper has it working :looney:

I haven't tried it... But if someone wants to lend me one I'll give it a go... :(

My theory is that the original Nissan ECUs "relay" information to the auto ecu whereas the powerfc's do not...

See that is why I went for piggy back instead of the PFC, car is auto. It is still not 100% certain that the PFC work with the auto ecu.

Craz0 mention it has worked but there is still some errors or bugs. Like the flashing of the power/snow switch.

Guys in the states has used an E-manage with a R34 (auto) and it was a success. More info can be found at the yahoo group - emanage. They got heaps of info there about the e-manage but not much on e-manage with skylines.

666DAN, you say the PFC can't be used in an auto can you tell me why?I just explained, I am running a Manual ECU in my auto and am having no problems, the auto has its own computer, the two talk to each other to limit the revs between gears and won"t allow any increase in boost over factory. Im sure that there is more to it than that, but no one i have talked to about it in a 12 month period has had anything more to say than put a 5 speed in it or you can't do it. ... There is no real difference between PFC and a standard manual ECU except the obvious ability to customise settings. Mind you my experience extends to 33's not 34's.

    • Check the injectors flow evenly, and are actually flowing what you and the ECU think they should be flowing. If it's starting up on starter fluid, you have a fuel issue. Is it possible under cranking your fuel pump is turning off?   The harness you replaced, is that the whole engine harness? Do yourself a test, and drop the old harness on and plug it into the Z32 ECU. It's possible they've wired things different. From memory S1 to S2 is different in RB25 and you may have a wrong loom
    • I haven’t pulled the injectors to watch them spray yet but they are clicking from the cas and all of the spark plugs are wet with fuel. I’ve thought the cylinders were being flooded from the beginning and was hoping fuel pressure would fix it. Tonight I am going to pull the rail and watch the injectors spray. Don’t know how to test/diagnose if the plugs are firing in correct sequence but that should be a timing thing and as far as timing goes my car still has the half moon for the cas can only install it 1 way. And my mechanical timing is 100% correct I posted photos above. Confirmed with the balancer on and off. 
    • I checked spark on all cylinders and they all visually have spark with the plug pulled and grounded, but plug 1 is the only one that fouled. This was a running swap that blew up and was rebuilt by a machine shop, put a new wiring specialties harness and did all gaskets, studs, and bolts while it was out.  compression is 135-150 across all cylinders. Aside from that from my understanding with the z32 ecu and maf the car should start regardless. The wiring for TPS and the dual 02 sensor/ dual knock sensor stuff shouldn’t actually stop the car from starting or even running well, (just slightly rich)  they just give fault codes. Car supposedly is supposed to start as long as you have z32 afm and ecu with the nistune base map and that’s info coming from a well known and trusted tuner who does a lot with SR/RB (Rsenthalpy). After more trouble shooting today where I’m at right now is that the cas is sending signal to the injectors they click while spinning the rotor, Fuel pressure is now set at 43psi, all cylinders have good compression and all of the plugs looked great (just wet with fuel) except for cylinder 1 which was very black (cylinder 1 has 150psi compression). all of the coils generate spark if pulled out and grounded out on the head. On the fuel pump car just pops into the exhaust. On starting fluid car will fire off. Hard to tell if all cylinders are firing off but definitley a couple. sounds like all of them but it’s only for 3-5 seconds hard to tell. 
    • Final update!!! Got the front bar fitted and sprayed and all sorted now. My cutouts worked great and the indicators aren’t just falling off. 😂
