I really can't say - nothing to compare it to other than the stock ECU - It just sits there and works - (no hand controller).

The car idles, no flat spots, seems easy to tune (I don't touch it though cause I have NFI)

I don't know too many other people using the Stinger on their Skylines - JulianGST from these forums does and he is happy -

One thing I did notice with both our cars (saw this happen to Julian at EC), is that when you dump it - lots of black smoke from the exhaust. I understand this indicates richness, which is a good thing, but the cars behind me may not appreciate it...... he he

I might think about changing the EMS after the engine rebuild, but I want to speak to a few more people & do a bit more research first,

have you got a blow off valve that vents to the atmosphere? cos if you are still running airflow meters then you'll get a plume of black smoke on gear changes as you get a rich injection of fuel as it delivers fuel based on the air the AFM has measured and half of it has been released through the bov. Another reason could be that the air/fuel ratio's get richer as you go up the rev range... a good tune to even it all out will fix that.

yeah, thought about that Joel and is a good option - but for some strange reason - I feel compelled to keep the original engine number ?? Dunno why maybe cause i don't want to go through blue slip process again (after the one it went though at time of import) - I will think about this some more though....

Can you link to the RB30E guide you mentioned ??

Cheers,

GiJOr33,

The EMS doesn't use AFM - THe BOV used to vent to atmosphere, but I got it change to plumback now cause I hated the noise (drew too much attention) and I wanted it be legal.

INASNT,

They are stock injectors high flowed to 610cc - I understand that the flow tests were documented, but I never saw the paperwork - So that's why I wanna get them tested again - to be sure, to be sure.

Also I have heard good and bad things about High Flowing injectors (retrespective to my mods being done) - If I get the results back and the flow and spray pattern (don't know if they can test this) are OK, I will re-use them - If not, I'll be up for new injectors & prolly rail with the rebuild. I'm hoping they will be OK. If not, then It may be one explanation for my little problem.

I wanna get it 200% right

Cheers,

I have an EMS (not the stinger though) in my skyline and it runs well. I have only had a few problems with it stalling on back off with the aircon on, but that is cause it doesn't currently have a separate tune for the a/c. It is also a bit to do with my large throttle body.

i am most probably getting sard 500cc side feeds for mine. They are around $125 each from greenline at the moment. How much did the high flowing cost u?

Not sure about cost as I got a package deal.

I understand the sard ones will need a new fuel rail and maybe some sort of adapter for them to fit ??? Not sure tho.

    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
    • Place the new daughterboard in the case and mount it using the 3 small black rivets provided, and reconnect the 3 factory ribbon cables to the new board Then, use the 3 piggyback cables from the daughterboard into the factory board on top (there are stand offs in the case to keep them apart. and remember to reconnect the antenna and rear cover fan wires. 1 screw to hold the motherboard in place. Before closing the case, make a hole in the sticker covering a hole in the case and run the cable for the android unit into the plug there. The video forgot this step, so did I, so will you probably. Then redo the 4 screws on back, 2 each top and bottom, 3 each side and put the 2 brackets back on.....all ready to go and not that tricky really.      
    • Onto the android unit. You need to remove the top screen because there is a daughterboard to put inside the case. Each side vent pops out from clips; start at the bottom and carefully remove upwards (use a trim remover tool to avoid breaking anything). Then the lower screen and controls come out, 4 screws, a couple of clips (including 3 flimsy ones at the top) and 3 plugs on the rear. Then the upper screen, 4 screws and a bunch of plugs and she is out. From there, remove the mounting brackets (2 screws each), 4 screws on the rear, 2 screws top and bottom and 3 screws holding in the small plates on each side. When you remove the back cover (tight fit), watch out for the power cable for the fan, I removed it so I could put the back aside. The mainboard is held in by 1 screw in the middle, 1 aerial at the top and 3 ribbon cables. If you've ever done any laptop stuff the ribbon cables are OK to work with, just pop up the retainer and they slide out. If you are not familiar just grab a 12 year old from an iphone factory, they will know how it works The case should now look like this:
    • Switching the console was tricky. First there were 6 screws to remove, and also the little adapter loom and its screws had to come out. Also don't forget to remove the 2 screws holding the central locking receiver. Then there are 4 clips on either side....these were very tight in this case and needed careful persuading with a long flat screw driver....some force required but not enough to break them...this was probably the fiddliest part of the whole job. In my case I needed both the wiring loom and the central locking receiver module to swap across to the new one. That was it for the console, so "assembly is the reverse of disassembly"
