This is my opinion from seeing a few done to other peoples cars, but I don't think that they are any good at the moment. I've seen them on a few different cars, including a 200SX and an R34GTR, both had serious problems.

The 200SX was an auto, and the E-manage says that it works with auto's, but it didn't, kept melting coil-packs. Upon quizzing TRUST about it they said that they had never actually tried it on an auto, they just assumed it would work.

I think that it is going through the teething problems that all EMS go through, and oneday it will be a very good product, but at the moment I don't think it is.

If anyone has another experiance then I'll be more than happy to hear it.

See'ya:burnout:

  • 2 weeks later...

the emange is a interceptor type ECU, tuning is done via a laptop which is linked with what seems to be a 9pin serial <-> USB cable.

software is not bundled with the unit and needs to be purchased seperately.

16 x 16 (load vs RPM) in the basic package, much like a SAFC except this is load vs RPM.

Easy/Hard to tune? Dude that depends how competent YOUR tuner is...

What else do you need to know?

ed,

This is correct. I have heard many a positive testimony to match the couple of negative ones. Try the e-manage forums (there are at least 3 that I know of). Most car owners are very satisfied.

After looking at the software it appears very intuitive.

rev210, yes....and you can hook it up to a profec e-01 for the wank factor scale of 10/10 :rolleyes:

rev, can you PM me the forums? I'm very interested in reading more on them :D

cs, what are you confused about? depends how much you want to spend....basic package of the emanage works just like a SAFC but much cheaper than a PowerFC. You can slowly upgrade the emanage with the ignition harness and then the injector harness (if upsized injectors) and also hook it up to the e-01 to tune via the e-01's screen.

One thing I did notice with the software was if you upgrade injectors and you already have a basic tune BEFORE the injector upsize, you simply enter in the % increase of the injectors and it automatically adjust your maps to suit. :D

Perhaps wander down to your local tuner and see if they have done any emanage units.

People's good exeriences and success are far more valuable than negative feedback, except where the negative feedback is all you can find. This is simply not the case with the e-manage. I know I'd rather speak to someone who made the e-manage work than someone who couldn't, the guy who couldn't can only tell you what not to do.

    • Welcome to Skyline ownership. Yes, it is entirely possible parts websites get things wrong. There's a whole world of inaccuracies out there when it comes to R34 stuff (and probably 33 and 32). Lots of things that are 'just bolt on, entirely interchangable' aren't. Even between S1 and S2 R34's. Yes they have a GTT item supposedly being 296mm. This is incorrect. I would call whoever you got them from and return them and let them know the GTT actually uses 310mm rotors. Depending on where you got them from your experience and success will obviously vary.
    • Hi...a bit a "development" on the brakes. I spoke to the guys where i get brakes from...and they are saying that 296mm EBC are for R34 GT-T. I then went to their site: https://www.ebcbrakes.com/vehicle/uk-row/NISSAN/Skyline (R34)/ and search for my car(R34 GT 1998 - it has GTT brakes) and it show me this USR1229 number and they are rly 296mm rotors... So now iam rly confused... The rotors i have now on the car are 310mm asi shown... So where is the problem? Does the whole EBC got it wrong or my calipers are just...idk know what?  
    • Oh What the hell, I used to get a "are you sure you want to reply, this thread is XX months old" message. Maybe a software update remove that. My bad.
    • This is a recipe for disaster* Note: Disaster is relative. The thing that often gets lost in threads like this is what is considered acceptable poke and compromise between what one person considers 'good' looks and what someone else does. The quoted specs would sit absurdly outside the guards with the spacers mentioned and need  REALLY thin tyres and a LOT of camber AND rolling the guards to fit. Some people love this. Some people consider this a ruined car. One thing is for certain though, rolling the guards is pretty much mandatory for any 'good' fitment (of either variety). It is often the difference between any fitment remotely close to the guards. "Not to mention the rears were like a mm from hitting the coilovers." I have a question though - This spec is VERY close to what I was planning to buy relative to the inboard suspension - I have an offset measuring tool on the way to confirm it. When you say "like a mm" do you mean literally 1mm? Or 2mm? Cause that's enough clearance for me in the rear :p I actually found the more limiting factor ISNT the coilover but the actual suspension arms. Did you take a look at how close those were?
    • @GTSBoy yeah sorry i know thery are known for colors bud those DBA are too in colors 🙂 Green will be good enough for me
