FINAL CALL ON ECU'S! DEADLINE FRIDAY!

[elwesso]

Got an email from robert today, and we are terminating ECU for further research on 94 ECU's and Y33s...... That being said, we cant get anythingd one if we are constantly doing ECUs...

So this is the Friday (1/13) will be the last day for 90-93 ECU reprogramming until further notice.. If your ready to pay, but you cannot pay just yet we will work with you, like a deposit to secure your place or something... However we will not be taking orders after this Friday until further notice.....

Feel free to contact me for info...

Hey Wes, Id like to get one but short on cash, let me know whats needed,go ahead and shoot me an email.thanks

[squeefoo]

Gee Whiz! Glad to hear something out of someone on this whole thing.

WTF on the whole bait-and-switch while in transit thing. RSVP means nothing I guess?I would post my E-Mail to you, but that wouldn't be nice would it? (reciprocity)

I wouldn't bring this up in public, if I would have gotten an answer.

I send my ECU off with not even an answer, and now my car sits there sans ECU.

I just don't understand... I sent a Money order, and my ECU, (before Christmas) ...and don't hear shyte from shinola from anyone or anything since. WTF

[Q45Racing]

hey wes

I'm interested, and I can send you out my ecu I have a 91 send me an email for shipping address and details.

[Jeff Williams]

I sent my cash, then had an ECU sent, but the ECU was DOA. Now I need another ECU.

If anybody has a spare one, send me a note.

Chill out dude, your ECU was sent out yesterday, that was partially my fault, i thought I emailed you back but I guess I didnt..... If you have a problem, please email me next time, because your post will be deleted next time...

[PoorManQ45]

I'd be interested if I actually drove my Q45.

What was the price again? Might be able to resell it after you stop making them

[elwesso]

we're not stopping production, we are just pausing it for further research...

[PoorManQ45]

Ok, Thanks for clearing that up.

What is your next project? If there's a thread just link me to it.

Thanks

[elwesso]

I said it eariler... first we're going to finalize the 94 ECUs and then do more research on the Y33 ECU... Then if business is lucrative enough, we may start doing other nissans.

[DougQ45]

Wes, just as soon as you have it figured out for the 94, I am in!! Doug

[Q_SHIP]

Might be the only performance upgrade I want for the Y33. Can't wait to see the final product.

[RobertsnewQ]

Me too

The Y33 is VERY challenging. I'll give a more detailed update in a few weeks, but basically there are a number of hurdles that will make it difficult. In the end, the modifications may end up being too expensive for some people.

[Flagship-Q]

Hey Wes, I was wanting in on this in the springtime figuring that it would give you guys more time to refine the programming. When you say further research, do you think that there is a considerable improvement that could be still made to it (G50) in the future? I'd love to have it but don't want to miss out on something big if it's down the pipeline. Does this get rid of the timing retard on take-off (thus improving throttle response)? Are you still selling the chip only (that I can have soldered in myself) for less or do I need to send you my ECU? Thanks a lot.

[RobertsnewQ]

We do sell the chip only, but I much prefer that you send your ECU to me for installation. That way, I can check your ECU and I KNOW the installation is correct. If you do it yourself, you're on your own.

As for the program itself, it won't get much (if any) changed later. I've got a good fuel and ignition map.

Yes, the tip-in timing has been improved (as much as 10 more degrees timing in some spots).

If I change anything major in the tuning I will be sure and let everyone know so they can get an updated chip if they want.

[Flagship-Q]

Sorry, I just reread the initial post about sending you the ECU and you install a connector that allows for chip swaps later. I want in on it. I always use 93 octane so I'd like the best programming available. Thanks!

[Q45tech]

Since the published pump octane is the average of two different octane tests, just because the pump say a number you cannot be sure how each tankful will react.

Motor octane numbers are 2-3 times more expensive than research octane to increase.

"Sensitivity – The difference in octane numbers between RON and MON. A high sensitivity fuel would have an MON much lower than it’s RON. This is a general indicator of the sensitivity of the fuel to changes in severity of the engine operating conditions. Standard US pump fuel usually has a sensitivity of 10, so a 92 octane US unleaded pump fuel will usually have an RON of 97 but an MON of only 87.

"In the motor protocol (ASTM D2700-92), the input air temp is maintained at 38C, the ignition timing varies with compression ratio between 14 and 26 degrees BTDC, and the motor is run at 900 RPM. In the research protocol (ASTM D2699-92) the input air temperature varies between 20C and 52C (depending on barometric pressure), timing is fixed at 13 degrees BTDC, and the motor is run at 600RPM.

The motor method, developed in the 1920s, was the first octane rating method devised. After its introduction, many more methods were introduced. During the 1940s through the 1960s one of those methods, the research method, was found to more closely correlate with the fuels and vehicles then available. However, in the early 1970s automobiles running on high-speed roads, such as the German Autobahn, started destroying themselves from high-speed knock. It was found that the difference in ratings between the research and motor method, known as the fuel's sensitivity was important as well. The greater the fuel's sensitivity, the worse it performed from a knock point of view in demanding, real-world, applications.

A MON of 87 may be insufficient for extra ignition advance depending on air inlet temperature.

Could I do a drive by being that I live in the LA area?

[RobertsnewQ]

Yep - send me an email and I'll give you my cell number.
