Does anyone know if you can buy the wiring kit for the AEM wideband? I have installed one in my Patrol but wouldn't mind using it in the skyline at times and i don't want to have to keep passing it through the firewall!

For $185 delivered i think the AEM is great! Helped me sort out some issues already.

Does anyone know if you can buy the wiring kit for the AEM wideband? I have installed one in my Patrol but wouldn't mind using it in the skyline at times and i don't want to have to keep passing it through the firewall!

For $185 delivered i think the AEM is great! Helped me sort out some issues already.

Where did you get it for $185 delivered?

I'm either going to get the Innovate piece: http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/NEW-Innovate-Motorsports-3844-MTX-L-52mm-Wideband-Air-Fuel-Ratio-AFR-Gauge-/120776925486?pt=AU_Car_Parts_Accessories&hash=item1c1edda12e

Or the AEM piece: http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/AEM-DIGITAL-WIDEBAND-UEGO-CONTROLLER-FREE-SHIP-AUS-/290497232176?pt=AU_Car_Parts_Accessories&hash=item43a2fbfd30

But if you can show me the AEM unit for $185(Digital with analog outputs etc) that would be great.

If you had to choose one of these units, which would you get?

There's a few sellers on eBay and with the changing exchange rate they can range from mid 180 to about 200ish. Mine was 192 for example.

As for which it depends on personal preference, both use the same sensor but the Innovate can be re-calibrated where as the AEM cannot. The Innovate has reportedly suffered from a few quality issues and issues with requiring re-calibration more regularly than might be considered normal, dunno if that's still the case though.

The Innovate is a touch more expensive but also appears to have better output options, the AEM is simpler but appears to have less issues.

I havent googled it , but my wiseband gauge is stuck on 14.8

once i start the car it goes thru the motions and the numbers change but once its going it just stays there (14.8)

dont tell me ive burnt the sensor out as some big mountain runs the turbo was glowing red , its about 12 inces before the cat

seems like my sensor is stuffed , great bit of gear as its only 3 weeks old......

i recieved my aem wide band yesterday , post was extremly fast looks like the real deal

going to throw it in over the weekend , dump pipe already has a second bung welded in although knowing my luck the thread will be wrong ..... hahaha

AEM by the looks of it

Ahh, I wonder if this is the same issue the Innovates have and the problem lies with the Bosch sensor itself and not the control units?

I'd imagine you'd have no issues with warranty.

It isnt the sensor that was the problem with the :LC1's it was the control unit.

I had my 1st one let go within a week. They replaced the unit straight away but didnt send a new sensor as it isnt an issue. Been great ever since.

Anyone running the new Innovate MTX-L widebands? http://www.innovatemotorsports.com/products/MTXL.php

According to Innovate these are a much better device than the LC-1, and everything is built into the gauge. Plus as far as I can tell 2 programmable outputs allows one to be set as narrowband into the stock ECU, and I can use the second as a wideband input to my Fcon (although if I have to calibrate it I might put a bung in somewhere easier to access :whistling: ). Also looks like you can change the scale, which will be handy because I'm looking at mapping for 98 and E85.

Cheap too, under $200 delivered on ebay.

PLX devices are selling their new DM6 mutli-guage and wide band AFR sensor for $199!

http://www.plxdevices.com/wideband.php

The DM6 can handle multiple inputs so you are not limited to a single funtion it can also manage oil, coolant, temps, pressures etc with the right modules i.e. very versatile!

P.S. It is accurate to <0.01AFR

This is the best bang-for-buck deal I have seen and I am eyeing one up for Xmas :cheers:

damn... that looks nice!!! And I was just about to buy one of the current ones!

Depends how much you buy into that comparison a couple of pages back.

PLX was one of the most inaccurate widebands in that comparison. Kit looks sexy though, I'll admit.

Still looking at the MTX-L. Haven't been able to find anything bad about the new range, seems all the negatives are written about the older Innovate gear.

Hi guys,

This is something I've been thinking about for putting in my car for a while now, does anyone have any experience with the AEM wifi based wideband and egt sensor?

X-WiFi Wideband UEGO and EGT Wireless Gauge Controller

Apparently this works with all wifi enabled devices.

http://www.aemelectronics.com/x-wifi-wideband-uego-and-egt-wireless-gauge-controller-1158

I'm quite interested in this particular one, can anyone comment on it, pros & cons?

Anyone using the 14point7 wideband?

I've been conyemplating one for ages but that plx one has a much nicer display and would be easier to mount

    • Dear folks My family members have 4 different cars : Triton 2015 and Corolla 2011 and Mazda3 2012 and Hyundai Elantra 2014 Looking to buy engine oil funnel spill free What I found are are below  https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0BBTTJNKX?ref=ppx_pt2_mob_b_prod_image&th=1 https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/145553221359?srsltid=AfmBOoqYBU6Ptw0LU_bAp_k67U3qkF97HHvePkA7iHZw8vUmiwoIRaRr https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B09X23TCS5?th=1 Is there a funnel with attachment that fits most cars ? Don't mind to spend for a decent quality  Thx  
    • Stock ECU (or more accurately stock tune) absolutely refuses to go over 10psi and behaves like you have seen. The Nistune is the same if it is the stock tune. If the Nistune chip has been tuned, the resulting tune could be literally anything for any combination of parts. The Nistune just makes the stock ECU Tunable.
    • So stock ECU does not like anything above 10 psi?  That Nistune one is just for "try" if it will be any different, I know it need to be tune for that. I know but YOU may know about these problem but i/we dont. They few little Skylines here let alone people who know anything about tham so that is why iam asking here  
    • So now we have a radiator with no attachments whatsoever. It lifts up with a particularly tight spot between the drivers side air box mount and the lower radiator outlet, but if you've got this far you will sort that too. This is the lower mounts with the rad out so you can see where the rubber bushes go, it is a straight shot upwards Done! Assembly is the reverse of disassembly, with blood less likely to be shed.
    • Right, onto the second last trick. The Air Con condenser is mounted to the front of the radiator and stays in the car when the radiator is removed. There are 2x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the condenser to the radiator, remove those The bottom of the condenser is attached to the radiator with clips. You need to lift the condenser out of those clips and clear (up, then forward). f**ked if  could work out how to do that last bit with the front bumper on. I hope you can, and you share the trick.  Bumper removal probably deserves its own thread one day once I've recovered the will to live, but basically you need to remove the wheels, front inner guard liners (clips and 10mm headed bolts), the self tapper between the guard and the bumper at the rearmost point of the bumper (same as an R32 that bit), any remaining clips at the top/front of the grill, an absolute bastard design with a plate that holds the top of the bumper above the headlight each side (only 1 bolt which is tricky to get to, but the plate catches 2 places on the bumper and must be removed....carefully!) and push clips between the bumper and guard under the headlight. If you've done all that you will be faced with wiring for the fog lights on both sides and in ADM Q50 RS at least, 4 nasty tight plugs on the driver's side for the ADAS stuff. So, the clips at the bottom look like this on drivers side (looking from the front) And on the passenger side (also from the front), you can see this one is already out Clearance on both of these are super tight; the condenser needs to move up but the upper rad support mount prevents that, and the radiator can't move down far because it is (rubber) mounted. Once you achieve the impossible and drop the condenser off those mounts so it does not stop the rad moving, you are good to go
