[gt-t_r34]

hey guys i want to upgrade the ecu on my r32 gtst but i dont wana spend the 1500 odd on a power fc AP Engineered one stuff that.

but i think i might go 4 a Greddy emanage am i better of getting just the standard blue emanage with the extra harnesses or the emanage ultimate.

im not going to go hardcore on mods ive herd that the emanage can support up2 300kw, i want be going near that 250 max is my goal.

things i wana do

Intercooler --Hybrid Gt Spec

Split Front and Dump Pipe -- BATMBL one (already have cat back)

Cams--- HKS or GREDDY ??? which is better??

Turbo --- HKS GTRS KIT

Fuel Pump--- TOMEI?? ive herd WALBRO arnt that good> any ideas which 1>?

Z32 AFM

ECU --EMANAGE

EBC-- PRofect B

Injectors-- GTR?? will they flow enough??

that seems about it what do you guys reckon will the emanage b ok 4 that??

thanks heaps simon.

This will no doubt change your plans.

RB20DET AP PFC $1040 delivered.

There's no real need for a hand controller, if it knocks it flashes your dash light, you then know to get it checked out and find out exactly why it is knocking.

* The PowerFC runs the rb20det's really nice, like factory if not better, strange enough it felt smoother through acceleration. The stock ECU I had a little bit of an iffy slightly hunting idle, the pfc has got rid of that idle.

* The PFC boost control kit works well, an AVCR would be nicer as it allows rpm and gear boost control (Good to aid traction in lower gears). The AVCR being a closed loop boost controller monitors boost level and adjusts the duty cycle in real time to achieve the boost level you have set.

This helps prevent the horrid boost drop/tailing off at high rpm when running a turbo near its limits.

* Tomei and HKS cams are known to work well. I prefer Tomei.

* Fuel pump - Bosch 044, mount it internally. If done correctly they are quiet.

* Z32 afm will work fine.

* GTR Injectors will be fine, but do remember that you will be up for the cost ($250-$300) + cleaning ($150 + resistor pack ($100 S/H - $190 New)

The EManage is a piggy back solution, there is no comparison to a Power FC (FC =Full Computer). I wouldn't bother with an EManage on an R32, if I only wanted to spend $700, then I would get the R32 ECU chipped and tuned live on the dyno.

cheers

All the reputable places I talked to about tuning an AP Engineering PFC said that they don't need the hand controller, and that using a laptop and the software they have allows for better tuning anyway. So I wouldn't bother with it if you're not gonna touch it yourself, cause they don't wanna touch it either

[gt-t_r34]

i was lookin at those 1050 pfc but its closed now?

[Lithius]

If you can wait 4 weeks or however long they take try www.greenline.jp ? I got quoted roughly $1050 to my door for an ap engineering pfc for my rb20det.

ahha gold thanks buddy

The group buy is $1040 delivered to your door.

It should be closed, the closing date is the 26th of august.

No doubt it will extend due to lack of interest?

Slap the link in your sig and become a post whore, a lot of ppls don't look in the group buy section.

If you buy through greenline or the likes there is a chance you will get done for GST.

oh i thought mods closed it bcoz of that guy the butted in and changed the prices bcoz he wasnt a trader

thanks simon

[Cubes]

That it is.. Sorry buddy didn't realise.

Maybe drop the ppls concerned a pvt message.

[gt-t_r34]

dnt stress .. this has come along so crazy for me because i had my heart set out on buying a emanage i have all the emanage and support tools on my shopping list on nengun!!

[Cubes]

Emanage would work well with an auto setup.

nice 3000-3500rpm stall convertor with a tricked up auto would launch damn hard, nice street weapon.

Thats when the rb20det box gives way and your left thinking about spending $1500 on an rb25 gearbox + $800 worth of clutch (not inc. labour). For the same money you can get a nice auto setup, depends what you want the car for.

I've considered an auto as its a daily driver and I enjoy small squirts fromt he traffic lights up to the speed limit but I have my heart set on the local track.

[gt-t_r34]

manual the way!! gota have a manual!! the rb20 box will hold 250rwkw thou want it? wen i bought my car it had just had a new box put in!

[gt-t_r34]

also just outa of curiousity what does the emanage ultimate have over the standard blue one?? hmmmm confusion what to do!!!

[gt-t_r34]

Fuel pump - Bosch 044, mount it internally. If done correctly they are quiet.

you say about that fuel pump my pump now is rather loud on start up like a whining noise whilst turned to on u can hear it until it ahhh loads some fuel in the system

is that normal or is it shagged neways??

[Cubes]

All fuel pumps have a nice little buz.

When the bosch pumps are mounted badly they tend to vibrate and create a surge grrrrrrrrrrr bad really lound annoying noise.

Mine is mounted externally and makes the horrible noise on hot days.

As said the horrible noise isn't the usual bzzzzzz, its the grrrrrr rrr r r r rrrr rr

ahh ok is it easy to install/mount them properly yourself??

do i have to get that 044 one or can i get the 040 because its a bit cheaper?? will it do the job ok?

[Cubes]

Do it your self and it will get done right.

I know Shaun @ Boostworx does a good job that doesn't make any noise, he's in sa though.

There's a DIY guide how to mount a bosch pump intank in the guide section, predator I think did the guide.

040 will do the job BUT they don't mount as low down in to the tank. Grab what suits your needs.

A GTR pump may very well supply enough fuel. Chances are it will.

[gt-t_r34]

hmm what suits my needs... so the o44sits lower meaning it will be less noisy? sky180 sells them and it says the are "recommendly" installed exteraly

is this right or wrong so i should be able to do it ok thou hopefully bcoz everything i install in my car seems to be a mission.
