GReddy E-Manage and Dow Low Spring
hey guys does anyone know what E-manage does? it works for the JZS161 so maybe it would work with our cars
also has anyone heard of the Dow Low springs by GReddy?

e-manage
Hey Sasha,
The GReddy e-Manage is a piggyback stand alone (to a certain extent) ECU. Though GReddy is marketing applications for the Aristo V300, the harness is still in developmental stages in Japan. They (GReddy Japan) is trying to create an early market. Benefit on the Aristo is that it has the ability to control up to 880cc injectors, control RPM up to 16 points, ignition, timing, etc given you have the tuning software. The unit, however, is an ideal Honda's because it comes with V-Tec controls standard. Unless you are trying to build a rocket car... this unit should be all you need. The e-Manage supposedly will give HKS's F-Con S the run for their money. The unit will be at $400 or less and harness should be under $200... however, it's no F-Con V Pro.

oh so this is a very advanced ECU system.. only for turbo cars
so it would fit your car right? you have the 161 ECU right? well that is when GRedddy realeases the harness.
whats the difference betweenn the Fcon and the e-managae?

Noticable differences:
e-Manage has built-in +/- RPM points on the unit directly whereas, the F-Con S needs the GCC-II (another $450-$500) to fine tune w/o the software. the e-Manage is more cost efficient in Japan. Not too familiar with the physical units yet... but can tell you the difference will be in the software and how the units can manipulate the stock ECU.
Its not only for turbo cars... its for any car that has a harness application for (namely gasoline cars Sasha). I definitely want to play with either of the units to start using larger injectors to raise the boost level.

Sasha:
remember, if somethings says it's JZS-161 specified, then MOST LIKELY it won't be able to bolt onto the GS300/400/430. Electronics in particular.
v300,
A while back you said the S-AFC harness for the JZS-160 won't work on US spec GS300s. Is that the same for ALL harnesses or just S-AFC? I need a harness for the APEXi RSM-GP but again I'm not sure if it'll work on a GS300 (even tho it's 160 specified). The number of pins are different for the US and Japanese GS300/Aristo S300s right? So that means ALL S300 harnesses won't work?
btw do you know which wire in the ECU sends out the gear position signal?
thanks in advance!

In terms of wiring harness the number of pin connectors between the JDM and US models are off by 40 pins (the US has more because of additional emissions features and theft control. In terms of the S-AFC you don't need to use particular harness kit. All you have to do is cut essential lines on the original factory wiring harness and solder in about 10 lines (+/-) from the S-AFC. I have the 1999 US electric wiring diagram at my office, but not on me right now. I think there are two lines and is supposedly engine RPM sensitive.

and do you see anything about gear position signal on the diagram? thanks!

It doesn't work like that. You have to treat an engine swap sensitive to given production car's clip, i.e., Aristo ECU requires Aristo harness - 97.8+ 2JZ-GTE - aristo tranny (model number different from 97.8+SupraTT). You can't do Aristo ECU - US GS300 harness - 97.8+ 2JZ-GTE - aristo tranny. You'll get check engine code and car won't crank... this is one of my Toysport lawsuit arguments (idiot).
BTW, I think your current signiture is a bit too "vertical."
