Not the informeter, there is no input for it. I do all my logging with the Emanage Ultimate, wideband included, then I send the log to my tuner who rings me back and tells me if I need a re-tune after each mod. lol.

According to this link you spice the wideband in the pink wire on the infometer.

Very nice find, I haven't seen that before. Might be a better gauge than the innovative one I use...

Well I've got one on order and it would be a bonus if this works (no reason to believe it doesn't). Pink must be an analogue input but I am not sure it's left free if you run the sensor adaptor also. Though having looked thsi picture of the wiring set-up it looks like the pink is still available even with the three external sensors = possible win.

Yeh, I have the external sensors all plugged in, which means I cant run the serial connection to the Emanage. I cant remember offhand if the pink wire was free.

I wonder if there are any other sensors I can plug in...

i wish i could get it to dim at night time. or when my headlights are on.

anyone know that one?

Mine doesn't dim either, so I just reduced the backlight to around 30%. Still fine in the day, and much better at night.

Hey quick question to all. How hot water temp is to hot. Hit 99 today in traffic and got little worried as I set alarm at 97. Air intake was at 76 :S

Mine does this also, in fact; those are the exact same peak numbers as on my Informeter. It's not nice to look at, but before you had the Informeter it was exactly the same; you just didn't know it.:whistling:

You have to understand this isn't an HQ holden, these engines are designed to run in the mid 80's minimum.

Modern engines run tight tolerances and the running temperatures reflect that, higher engine running temperatures also promote better emissions (notwithstanding the rich/retard things cars do when the weather gets really hot).

My last Honda road bike (CBR 929RR) had a digital temp gauge; running temp was 89 deg, would routinely run out to 106 deg, fan would come on drop it to 98 deg. I once rode it on a 47 deg day with a pillion, with the temp gauge sitting on 102 deg for 5 hours. I did 75000km on this bike and when I sold it it went EXACTLY the same as the day I bought it. Most Honda road cars, the optimum running temp is 90 -95 deg, it's just a number.

The cooling system is under pressure (10- 15psi is normal), water does not boil at 100 deg if it is pressurised. (I think the rule of thumb is an extra degree for every psi of pressure)

As Cephas says; the thing to worry about, is if the car doesn't cool down once you're moving (more than 70km/h). This means the cooling system, or the volume of water in the system is inadequate for the purpose.

Of course, any amount of heat you can remove from the syatem is a good thing (i.e external oil or trans cooler ducted AWAY from the radiator) just gives more headroom for the system to operate in extreme conditions.

mines hit 107 before in hot weather with the AC on. this was stop start traffic

lately its been around 90-99 in stop start. once im moving at 60km it drops back to mid 80s. im not so worried anymore now other people are having similar numbers. i also have a nismo thermostat which i think was a stock one in a nismo box

Yeah. I average near 90 on hotter days. Hit 99 and got worried so took back roads where I wash sitting still and dropped to 94-95. Air temp was high 60's still though.

Need standard airbox! Any body know where I can get one without selling my liver?

Got to 101 in traffic....intake temp got up to 79!!!!

Talk to zei20l.....pretty sure he has a spare standard airbox!

Ok I thought it was just me with high intake temps. As when I opened the bonnet it dropped 5 degrees within seconds. Also driving with bonnet open shows marked improvement with my crappy pod. But cant drive with the bonnet open around streets.

Can anyone with a leaf screen AND an informeter comment on the fuel consumption readouts from the informeter? Mine seem to be so far wrong its comical (Im assuming the leaf screen is accurate - Ive never heard reports to the contrary)

Well it depends on how often you reset your informeter. My average is quite accurate with leaf but trip is a little off. Haven't really tested it though. I find the actual leave compared to the currant usage on inform to be the same.

But my throttle seems never to go below 10% lol dunno why

lol I purposly didnt set these up, and the leaf screen i shut off.

250k per FULL tank is not something you wanna see lmao

lol... that's 2 days to work and back for me!

I dunno how you put up with it mate

well everytime i try to get a tune onto it, i either get exited and find something else i wanna do first.

or my turbo blows lol

Because its stuck in my shed with no turbo. Cheap to run if you dont drive it. lol.

^^ and that.

Scott wish shayne for me!

    • Hi guys . Can someone help me  I bought an Android screen for my Nissan fuga but it won't turn on   
    • My guesstimate, with no real numbers to back it up, is it won't effect it greatly at all.its not a huge change in position, and I can't see the air flow changing from in turbulence that much based on distance, and what's in front of it. Johnny and Brad may have some more numbers to share from experience though.
    • Which solenoid? Why was it changed? Again, why was this done? ...well, these wear..but ultimately, why was it changed? Did you reset the idle voltage level after fitment? I'm just a tad confused ~ the flash code doesn't allude to these items being faulty, so in my mind the only reason to change these things, would be some drive-ability issue....and if that's the case, what was the problem? Those questions aside, check if the dropping resistor is OK ...should be 11~14 ohms (TCU doesn't throw a flash code for this) ~ also, these TCU designs have full time power (to keep fault code RAM alive), and I think that'll throw a logic code (as opposed to the 10 hardware codes), if that power is missing (or the ram has gone bad in the TCU, which you can check..but that's another story here perhaps).
    • Question for people who "know stuff" I am looking at doing the new intake like the one in the picture (the pictured is designed for the OEM TB and intake plenum), this design has the filter behind the front bar, but, the filter sits where the OEM duct heads into the front bar, and the standard aperture when the OEM ducting is removed allows the filter to pulled back out of the front bar into the engine bay for servicing, a simple blanking plate is used to seal the aperture behind the filter This will require a 45° silicone hose from the TB, like the alloy pipe that is currently there, to another 45° silicone hose to get a straight run to the aperture in the front bar Question: how will it effect the tune if I move the MAF about 100-150mm forward, the red is around where my MAF is currently, and the green would be where it would end up Like this This is the hole the filter goes through  Ends up like this LOL..Cheers    
    • Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.
