Hei guys, i finally got some time and cash to finalize my tune and after replacing stock with high-flown turbo 3 months ago finally get this car back on the road properly. So far apart from turbo i got shift kit and full exhaust sorted, i gotta get Injectors,intercooler with transmission cooler and ECU... So gotta ask what are the best options for the ECU and intercooler these days. The idea was to get to 300kw with ethanol conversion, so whatever works best.

thanks

Hi shone, where are you located?and who will be tuning it? That will make a bit of a difference towards ecu options. There is only a few options either way though. Emanage ultimate is still the most supported and cheapest option, but 300 killawasps is a fair bit for a piggyback. F-con is a great option if you can be lucky enough to find a harness for it. I use Adaptronic which I am very happy with but still working on getting it perfect. Will be going back in in late January to hopefully get it all finalized.

As far as front mount just get the Hdi unit. Straight bolt on and flows more then enough for what you want and plenty more.

Thanks Brick, Im in Melbourne so Scotty is doing all the work. Not sure who exactly is doing the tune as we are not that close to it yet. Just spoke to him and seems like Emanage is pretty much the only option and as i understood 300kw has been done on it and it shouldn't be a problem :0. Fcon's are impossible to get as ive heard, or? And with haltech im looking at 3x the money, so i guess theres only 1 option right?...

with HDI kit i would need slim fan? Can anyone help with this, what exectly am i looking for and where to get, any links would be great.

Also for that Emanage, where is the best to get it from and also what exactly should i be searching for as i found more than few of Emanage ECU's but which one is for m35...

Its just that i need to order these so they arrive by the time im ready to get it all done...

thanks

EBay for all of above. Yes 300kw has been done on Emanage. You need and Emanage ultimate with a universal wiring harness.

Slim line fan is just a generic slim 12" thermo from eBay

is that the one or, coz theres a few different ones at different prices.

thanks

ok thanks for the replies.. i sorted out the ECU http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Greddy-E-Manage-emanage-Ultimate-ECU-ONLY-with-software-and-laptop-cable-/131164002218?pt=AU_Car_Parts_Accessories&hash=item1e89fbd7aa

scotty has the harness ..

The only thing i need to get is MAP sensor and i found these 2 on ebay they are not genuine but is there any potential issues with these and is there difference between these two apart from the price...

And the only thing left is the transmission cooler.

any advice

thanks

I have a genuine GM MAP sensor but I would be tempted top try one of the Hong Kong sourced MAP sensors advertised on US Ebay for about $12 post free! I would think they would be very similar to the ones you have linked.

If there is genuine listed id get it but i would have to wait a week to hear from that Japan guy plus by the time it arrives it will take a month, and the plan was to get the car done by the new years so.. Want to sort everything out by mid january hopefully... its just those things i mentioned that i cant find or not sure what to get

Have you looked into adaptronic's e420d? They have an inbuilt map sensor and base maps to get the car running. Target afr, closed loop tuning, aux outputs for boost soleniod etc. and great customer service and trouble shooting. Hypergear on here sell them

thanks ill check it but think scotty said emanage is pretty much the best option as fcon is not available...

Can someone help with transmission cooler, what do i need, where to get?

"Yeah why?" Because you have already asked the question before and someone (Dale) has gone to the trouble of answering it already so the fact that you ask the same question again suggests that you haven't bothered to read the reply.

I actually thought he was talking about the fan for HDI kit not the trans cooler... sorry and thanks

Do some reading in 'what you have done to your stagea' thread and other associate threads as there is alot of information in there. Also look at m35 parts pinned thread. These will be helpful to you and will stop the repost issues where people get shitty with.

@kiwirs4t.......... what kind of cooler was it again??? ;)

    • Look for broken wire or bad connector at the motor. Might not be it, but is worth starting there, as it is easy.
    • Hi everyone, I’m having an issue with my R32 GT-R. Sometimes, when the car goes over a bump or experiences some vibration, the 4WD warning light comes on the dashboard. When I check the code from the control unit in the trunk, it shows Code 19 – ETS Motor. However, everything seems to be working fine — if I turn off the engine and restart the car, the light goes away and everything functions normally. Has anyone experienced this before? Where should I start troubleshooting this issue? Thanks in advance!
    • I'm back from the dyno - again! I went looking for someone who knew LS's and had a roller dyno, to see how it shaped up compared to everything else and confirm the powerband really is peaking where Mr Mamo says it should. TLDR: The dyno result I got this time definitely had the shape of how it feels on the road and finally 'makes sense'. Also we had a bit more time to play with timing on the dyno, it turns out the common practice in LS is to lower the timing around peak torque and restore it to max after. So given a car was on the dyno and mostly dialled in already, it was time for tweaking. Luis at APS is definitely knowledgable when it came to this and had overlays ready to go and was happy to share. If you map out your cylinder airmass you start seeing graphs that look a LOT like the engine's torque curve. The good thing also is if you map out your timing curve when you're avoiding knock... this curve very much looks like the inverse of the airmass curve. The result? Well it's another 10.7kw/14hp kw from where I drove it in at. Pretty much everywhere, too. As to how much this car actually makes in Hub Dyno numbers, American Dyno numbers, or Mainline dyno numbers, I say I don't know and it's gone up ~25kw since I started tinkering lol. It IS interesting how the shorter ratio gears I have aren't scaled right on this dyno - 6840RPM is 199KMH, not 175KMH. I have also seen other printouts here with cars with less mods at much higher "kmh" for their RPM due Commodores having 3.45's or longer (!) rear diff ratios maxing out 4th gear which is the 1:1 gear on the T56. Does this matter? No, not really. The real answer is go to the strip and see what it traps, but: I guess I should have gone last Sunday...
    • 310mm rotors will be avilable from Australia, Japan, and probably a few other places. Nothing for the front can be put on the back.
    • The filter only filters down to a specific size. Add to that, the filter is AFTER the pump. So it means everything starts breaking your pump even if its being filtered out.
