Thread: Aem stand alone or Nismotronic for my Sr20ve build

@BenFenner - We have had these features released for well over a year now.

The old RT version which was the first one had a limited set of features, but that product is no longer offered.

If you go through and compare the main ECU features that NismoTronicSA has to offer and compare it to just about any standalone system out there you will find very few things that we don't have implemented.

AEM literally just released flex fuel support and engine protection last August! They have actually been the ones playing catch up for the most part, at least for the V1 and V2 boxes.

The infinity system is on a completely different level hardware wise and is certainly the future of their product line .. but when comparing NismoTronicSA to AEM V1 or V2 you will find very few "critical" differences between them.

BUT as far as the original post is concerned, both the AEM and NismoTronicSA systems will work for your ITB setup.

They both have alphaN and map sensor tuning support, so go with whatever fits your budget and your tuner is capable of handling. I know Jamie can handle tuning either one!

Is the NEMU limited to the stock coolant temp sensor?

Nope, you have access to the ECT calibration table which you can change to suit whatever sensor you are running.

My Nemu saved my engine the other day!!! I am so grateful for it

Thanks for all the great info guys. Its been a huge help.

Can you make adjustments on the fly now with nismotronic? or do you still have to save it 1st before the changes take effect?

How about you tell us how for the thread!

Well, I had been having issues with my newly installed slim fans not comin on even though they were wired into the stock fan harness.So we rigged up one fan to run all the time, we tried everything to figure out what was wrong;so we thought. Btw, I have no gauges except the factory stuff witch all read normal reading. So, I brought the car to my friend and nemu tuner....he hooked up his laptop to my car and noticed that the engine temp reading seemed off. He then popped the hood to check the sensor and noticed that the sensor probe had broken off into the port. Luckily he was able to get it out, replace it, and everything worked out jus perfectly!!!!!!

You have never had to save changes first for the changes to take affect .. you have always been able to tune in real time!

Maybe you are mistaking changing a parameter like the rev limit, and not clicking away from that item or hitting TAB/ENTER for the item to be marked as changed so it would upload.

Even in AEM when you change a parameter like that it will only update after you physically hit the enter key, that is because you don't want it to make any updates while you are typing the number or that would lead to all kinds of issues.

Plus .. the update changes and calibration loading is a TON faster than a V1 AEM box and very similar to the USB V2 boxes.

Thank you John for clearing up alot of the misinformation and misconceptions regarding the NEMU setup
