Been a while since I created a thread.

I just wanted to get some information on people's experience with this ECU. I have read about them on their website and in various threads around here but there isn't much info about people using them for a full flex tune.

Someone commented a while back they these are not capable of a true flex tune due to some issue with blending of maps. Has anyone got any more information on this or has anyone used this for a pump 98-E85 flex tune before?

Any info would be appreciated.

Cheers guys :)

Jez has worked on Adaptronic ECUs before + the fact Dan that Adam from JEM can answer your Qs at the next SAU.NSW Tech Arvo in July.

JEZ is going to be the one tuning it but I hate bothering him with questions all the time.

I wish I could make it to the tech night but I'm still overseas for another month. I'll be back on the 26th of July hopefully unless work extends this trip. :(

For what it does it works well, in version 12 Andy has introduced load vs rpm for the flex table which gives it more control unlike previous versions which only blanket fixed amount of timing and blanket fuel amount depending on the ethanol content.

It's much better now however not as sexy as a Haltech but for what it is and what it's worth I'm pretty happy with the features it provides.

Just one small thing I dislike, the USB connector is flimsy I snapped mine and had to solder it back onto the PCB lol

ahh yeah I saw that in the hypergear thread, sorry to hear mate.

I found a thread by guilt toy as well with a lot of information about the adaptronic which is good.

Not many people are running them as full flex tunes though so it will be interesting to hear feedback around that subject.

    • Was there ever a model of the Stagea m35 that didnt have a badge on the grill? I thought I saw that somewhere, some aero edition or something? I cant find it again? davemoto
    • Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.
    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
