S1 Stagea rs4 auto.

OK so here's what I have so far laying around:

Intake plenum

80mm throttle body

top mount exhaust manifold

600x300 FMIC

cam gears

kkr430 (itll do for now, until I get a gt3540 and a wastegate)

splitfires

BOV

Mate's trying to talk me into some top feed injectors (550cc?)

ECU - Im looking at a Greddy emanage ultimate, the powerfc i think is just screaming 'overboard' to me.

Anything else I need? Looking at putting this on in July when we do the big roadtrip to C-red.

Thanks in advance, my knowledge is starting to lack at this stage

Fuel pump Bosch or Walbro. Either fpr or bigger injectors (why topfeed - you can get 550 side feed nothing wrong with stock rail). Greddy E-manage best bet for S1 auto. I haven't got anything on your list except for an adjustable exhaust cam gear - spent my money on a GCG highflow instead. Next 550 (sidefeed) injectors and Z32afm.

S1 requires ecu to run auto at all (even though there is another computer for the auto) let alone pull timing during changes etc. Pretty sure PFC won't work - haven't heard of anyone doing it on an S1 auto - hence the e-manage. Stock injectors OK for around 200AWKW - fpr may push that up a little - if your aim is big horsepower (240AWKW say) then forget the fpr and get the bigger injectors when needed.

PS 200AWKW makes for a pretty rapid wagon.

PFC will work, just no timing retard on changes, there are people running auto r33's with PFC's
but are they skylines or stageas? I am having this issue right now...Stagea with ov300 needs that ecu to make auto work at all - tuner is piggybacking R32 ecu to fit tunable chip but has to leave ov300 as well or I'm stuck in 3rd gear. Not an issue with R33 skylines or R34 S2 stageas.

Have you determined what signals the Auto ECU is having a sook about not receiving from the factory ECU?
Apparently there are six pins involved but tuner is the electronics expert not me. Strangely with the same auto (but different ecu and loom ) Stagea S2 can do without the stock ecu ( and therefore run Vipec/Link) although ironically the S2 stock ecu can be Nistuned while the S1 cannot.

skylines, as i said, auto r33's

i would just go an EM-U instead of all that f**king around :)

    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
    • Place the new daughterboard in the case and mount it using the 3 small black rivets provided, and reconnect the 3 factory ribbon cables to the new board Then, use the 3 piggyback cables from the daughterboard into the factory board on top (there are stand offs in the case to keep them apart. and remember to reconnect the antenna and rear cover fan wires. 1 screw to hold the motherboard in place. Before closing the case, make a hole in the sticker covering a hole in the case and run the cable for the android unit into the plug there. The video forgot this step, so did I, so will you probably. Then redo the 4 screws on back, 2 each top and bottom, 3 each side and put the 2 brackets back on.....all ready to go and not that tricky really.      
    • Onto the android unit. You need to remove the top screen because there is a daughterboard to put inside the case. Each side vent pops out from clips; start at the bottom and carefully remove upwards (use a trim remover tool to avoid breaking anything). Then the lower screen and controls come out, 4 screws, a couple of clips (including 3 flimsy ones at the top) and 3 plugs on the rear. Then the upper screen, 4 screws and a bunch of plugs and she is out. From there, remove the mounting brackets (2 screws each), 4 screws on the rear, 2 screws top and bottom and 3 screws holding in the small plates on each side. When you remove the back cover (tight fit), watch out for the power cable for the fan, I removed it so I could put the back aside. The mainboard is held in by 1 screw in the middle, 1 aerial at the top and 3 ribbon cables. If you've ever done any laptop stuff the ribbon cables are OK to work with, just pop up the retainer and they slide out. If you are not familiar just grab a 12 year old from an iphone factory, they will know how it works The case should now look like this:
    • Switching the console was tricky. First there were 6 screws to remove, and also the little adapter loom and its screws had to come out. Also don't forget to remove the 2 screws holding the central locking receiver. Then there are 4 clips on either side....these were very tight in this case and needed careful persuading with a long flat screw driver....some force required but not enough to break them...this was probably the fiddliest part of the whole job. In my case I needed both the wiring loom and the central locking receiver module to swap across to the new one. That was it for the console, so "assembly is the reverse of disassembly"
