In Reply To AEM has a new programable system that is aparently >>>>>>>>> posted by YellowZXTT (Bak 'N' Blak) on January 22, 2002 at 10:20 AM
     
Message 1)Is that the wiring harness is different on the '96s. If it were the same as previous year 300Z's then owners of '96s could simply plug in a previous year ecu with a JWT chip and run with that. They can't. So that means the AEM ecu for the 90-95 ZTT's won't work with a '96.

2)It doesn't exist yet. JWT has been "working" on a '96 ecu for the last 6 years. In the mean time the '96 owners had the joy of watching everyone else mod their cars. The Technosports ecu upgrade exists now :-)

3) With the very small number of '96s in circulation, AEM would have to develope an ecu just for 1 model year of a very rare car. For the very same reason JWT doesn't sell an upgrade for the '96. In Japan, however, the Z was made until '99. Not only that but Nissan changed all their ecu's to the OBD2 style (Skyline, Silvia) around '96. This isn't a recent breakthrough in Japan, they have been modding these ecu's for years.

: plug and play. Its like a standalone setup but it plugs into the current wiring harness and uses existing sensors. It comes with a base program to get you running and you can start modifying from there. You do have the option to add in more sensors if you wish. As of now they don't have a plug and play for the Z but i talked with them and they said to expect it soon. They have a race version which the customer can program for any FI car if you want but it requires starting from scratch (very hard).

: The going price will be between 1200 and 1300. If you concider the cost of JWT + AFC + AVC-r you reach about 1200. I'd rather have a stand alone for that price. I plan on experimenting with it on my DSM and if things look good do the RACE system for the Z. Here is a link [ http://www.aempower.com/ems.htm ]
: Check out the demo program - it rocks
