Yes I have one fitted to the 34.

It's good timing actually because Lumpy finished tuning it today.

We still have a problem of the emanage not comunicating with the ECU on the ignition side and are waiting for advice from Trust.

So it's basically only working as a "AFC" unit but is far superior to the Apexi. As a result we just recorded 302 rear wheel hp up from the previous best of 275 with the AFC.

Best news is it's making a heap more down low revs which is important.

Only running 0.85 bar as to run more need the 300zx AFM.

So there is obviously more to come for the next owner.

The problem I have should not be an issue with the 33 as the 34's computer is much more complex.

Hi Shaun

As it so happens I have 2 emanage units.

When I had the problem Trust sent me a second unit but that wasn't the problem.

I have to return it but I'll ask if I can sell it and just send the money which is easier.

They are closed for a week so can you wait?

I have the basic unit only left over.

If you fit that it works as a AFC unit like the Apexi

If you buy the injector harness it works almost like a programmable unit for fuel (which is how I'm using it at present)

Then you can buy the ignition harness to control timing (which I have but doesn't work yet)

Unless you have access to a dyno and know what you're doing don't bother with buying the software as Lumpy has it and can install and tune it for you.

Heya Chris,

So are you saying that it made 25 more rwhp than the Apex SAFC? is it only about $500 between the 2?

Oh one more question, each time you get a mod done does that mean that you have to take it back to Lumpy to get it retuned and put on the dyno again? Does that have to happen with Apex Power FC aswell? What would you recommend between The PFC and the Emanage?

simple answer yes. with after market ecu u need to retune after engine related mods.

just doesn't take as long

$500 for the com as well as fit and tune right? not just the work?

Usually around 410 from nengun and lumpy should so it for 150 or so so yeh thats a good price. Put me down for it if u can

No the $500 is as I said for the fit and tune only.

The unit is extra.

The base unit maybe $410 from Nengun but can he get the injector and ignition harnesses as well?

Takes a while to wire them up as they are not as basic as the AFC where you only cut one wire.

There are about 20 odd wires to cut into.

Plus dyno time is about $150 per hour.

In basic form it would work like a S-AFC

There is so much more potential there it would be a shame not to use it.

Plus even in basic form you'd have to put it on the dyno then again once you buy the additional harnesses.

Talk to Lumpy he'd be the best to get advice on what to do.

      R33 Fuel Pump & Brakes after alarm swap

      Who did you have do the installation? I actually know someone who is VERY familiar with the AVS gear. The main point of contact though would be your installer.   Where are you based in NZ?

      Look, realistically, those are some fairly chunky connectors and wires so it is a reasonably fair bet that that loom was involved in the redirection of the fuel pump and/or ECU/ignition power for the immobiliser. It's also fair to be that the new immobiliser is essentially the same thing as the old one, and so it probably needs the same stuff done to make it do what it has to do. Given that you are talking about a car that no-one else here is familiar with (I mean your exact car) and an alarm that I've never heard of before and so probably not many others are familiar with, and that some wire monkey has been messing with it out of our sight, it seems reasonable that the wire monkey should be fixing this.

      After market rear camber arm adjustment

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Wheel alignment immediately. Not "when I get around to it". And further to what Duncan said - you cannot just put camber arms on and shorten them. You will introduce bump steer far in excess of what the car had with stock arms. You need adjustable tension arms and they need to be shortened also. The simplest approach is to shorten them the same % as the stock ones. This will not be correct or optimal, but it will be better than any other guess. The correct way to set the lengths of both arms is to use a properly built/set up bump steer gauge and trial and error the adjustments until you hit the camber you need and want and have minimum bump steer in the range of motion that the wheel is expected to travel. And what Duncan said about toe is also very true. And you cannot change the camber arm without also affecting toe. So when you have adjustable arms on the back of a Skyline, the car either needs to go to a talented wheel aligner (not your local tyre shop dropout), or you need to be able to do this stuff yourself at home. Guess which approach I have taken? I have built my own gear for camber, toe and bump steer measurement and I do all this on the flattest bit of concrete I have, with some shims under the tyres on one side to level the car.

      R33 Fuel Pump & Brakes after alarm swap

      By Jarsky · Posted

      Thought I would get some advice from others on this situation.    Relevant info: R33 GTS25t Link G4x ECU Walbro 255LPH w/ OEM FP Relay (No relay mod) Scenario: I accidentally messed up my old AVS S5 (rev.1) at the start of the year and the cars been immobilised. Also the siren BBU has completely failed; so I decided to upgrade it.  I got a newer AVS S5 (rev.2?) installed on Friday. The guy removed the old one and its immobilisers. Tried to start it; the car cranks but doesnt start.  The new one was installed and all the alarm functions seem to be working as they should; still wouldn't start Went to bed; got up on Friday morning and decided to have a look into the no start problem. Found the car completely dead.  Charged the battery; plugged it back in and found the brake lights were stuck on.  Unplugging the brake pedal switch the lights turn off. Plug it back in and theyre stuck on again. I tested the switch (continuity test and resistance); all looks good (0-1kohm).  On talking to AVS; found its because of the rubber stopper on the brake pedal; sure enough the middle of it is missing so have ordered a new one. One of those wear items; which was confusing what was going on However when I try unplugging the STOP Light fuses (under the dash and under the hood) the brake light still stays on. Should those fuses not cut the brake light circuit?  I then checked the ECU; FP Speed Error.  Testing the pump again; I can hear the relay clicking every time I switch it to ON. I unplugged the pump and put the multimeter across the plug. No continuity; im seeing 0.6V (ECU signal?) and when it switches the relay I think its like 20mA or 200mA). Not seeing 12.4V / 7-9A. As far as I know; the Fuel Pump was wired through one of the immobiliser relays on the old alarm.  He pulled some thick gauged harness out with the old alarm wiring; which looks to me like it was to bridge connections into the immobilisers? Before it got immobilised it was running just fine.  Im at a loss to why the FP is getting no voltage; I thought maybe the FP was faulty (even though I havent even done 50km on the new pump) but no voltage at the harness plug.  Questions: Could it be he didnt reconnect the fuel pump when testing it after the old alarm removal (before installing the new alarm)?  Is this a case of bridging to the brake lights instead of the fuel pump circuit? It's a bit beyond me as I dont do a lot with electrical; so have tried my best to diagnose what I think seems to make sense.  Seeking advice if theres for sure an issue with the alarm install to get him back here; or if I do infact, need an auto electrician to diagnose it.

      Then, shorten them by 1cm, drop the car back down and have a visual look (or even better, use a spirit level across the wheel to see if you have less camber than before. You still want something like 1.5 for road use. Alternatively, if you have adjustable rear ride height (I assume you do if you have extreme camber wear), raise the suspension back to standard height until you can get it all aligned properly. Finally, keep in mind that wear on the inside of the tyre can be for incorrect toe, not just camber
