Selling a Tech Edge wide band meter.

Cheap and fun way to tune your own car or just to keep an eye on those A/F ratios.

Accuracy to within 0.1 which is plenty for street use.

See all the details here: http://wbo2.com/2j/2j1.htm

Connect to your laptop with the free software and monitor RPM, both knock sensors and A/F ratios. Only requires 3 wires to be connected to your ECU loom.

Cost me over $400 last year and has only done a few hundred kms. Im selling car and putting original ECU back in so this has to go.

Will sell for $250 firm. I will include registered postage to anywhere in Australia.

going off the picture there is no sensor and the rj45 plug has been cut off is this correct and its last years model which they no longer sell...

So I would need ot get a new bosch sensor, replace the rj45 connector and it should be right to go?

did you install this yourself, how hard is the install and do you need any software to hook it up to a laptop?

did you hook it up to your ecu at all? which ECU?

Sorry I should have mentioned that the sensor is still in the car. I need to jack it up to remove it and just havent got around to that yet. So YES the sensor is included. Can post a pic up as soon as I get it out.

I havent cut any plugs off. The grey wire you see with no end is the connections for the ECU. You just strip back the outer cover to get at the wires. There is another connector to attach your laptop with I havent included in the pic but here is a pic of it from the Tech Edge website. You either have the Display plugged in or the laptop into the grey wire with the black thingy on the end.

I installed it myself, was fairly straight forward. You need to find a wiring diagram for your ECU so you know which wires to tap into to. I was using it on a Power FC on my R33 GTSt. I tapped into the RPM, and both knock sensors, plus you get the A/F ratio from the sensor, so on the laptop I was graphing 4 inputs.

Software I used was free and available from the Tech Edge website. Have a look here: http://wbo2.com/sw/log.htm

      Best place to order Authetic R32 Parts in Japan

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I don't. I mean, mine's not a GTR, but it is a 32 with a lot of GTR stuff on it. But regardless, I typically buy from local suppliers. Getting stuff from Japan is seldom worth the pain. Buying from RHDJapan usually ends up in the final total of your basket being about double what you thought it would be, after all the bullshit fees and such are added on.

      Ethanol Content Sensor - Always at 11%?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The hydrocarbon component of E10 can be shittier, and is in fact, shittier, than that used in normal 91RON fuel. That's because the octane boost provided by the ethanol allows them to use stuff that doesn't make the grade without the help. The 1c/L saving typically available on E10 is going to be massively overridden by the increased consumption caused by the ethanol and the crappier HC (ie the HCs will be less dense, meaning that there will definitely be less energy per unit volume than for more dense HCs). That is one of the reasons why P98 will return better fuel consumption than 91 does, even with the ignition timing completely fixed. There is more energy per unit volume because the HCs used in 98 are higher density than in the lawnmower fuel.

      No, I'd suggest that that is the checklist for pneumatic/hydraulic adjustable systems. I would say, based on my years of reading and complying with Australian Standards and similar regulations, that the narrow interpretation of Clause 3.2 b would be the preferred/expected/intended one, by the author, and those using the standard. Wishful thinking need not apply.

      Yes they do. For some maybe. But for those used the most by abusers, ie Skylines, the numbers are known. The stock eyebrow height for R32/3 Skylines is about 365/375mm or thereabouts. The minimum such heights are recorded in adjacent columns in the database.

      Hmmm, interesting. Makes me wonder whether there is bias as well. It's the cheapest fuel, so it is used for all kinds of ill-maintained shitboxes which are bound to have issues regardless. Nicer cars tend to require higher octane rated fuel and can't use it anyway. FWIW, the official NSW E10 facts page is decent.
