im looking into gettin a wideband 02 and safc to start the turbo fun.
its pretty much between the zietronix zt-2 and plx m300. anyone have any experience with these units? the zt-2 seems to have a good amount of features for a reasonable amount of money, but im not sure if all the features will work on a nissan. the guy seems pretty devoted to dsm's, and i dont know if the tach and tps signals are the same. thanks for any help or info you have

anyone know what size the o2 bung in the hotshot header is?
i think the bosch sensors are 18mm x 1.5 pitch

thanks

ooh nice display

thats kinda hot. good price too. dont forgett he innovative LM-1 though. lots of good reviews out there. sorry I dunno the thread pitch. I'd assume stock fits it but im not sure

i think a normal o2 is a bit smaller than that, but on my bung there is a threaded sleeve screwed into a larger one. im hoping that the larger one will fit. i like the display as well, and if i can eaily datalog tps, rpm, and afr it seems like tuning would be relatively simple.

i looked at the lm1 but i would prefer one with a mountable display for changes on the fly. those arent due out for a little while still for the lm1.

I have been using the PLX-m300 for months and love it. It's very compact and has a nice display, no data-logging functions but that was a reason I chose it. Plus it uses the bosch 02's so replacements don't cost an arm and a leg. I've used it to tune several nissan's and honda's and I'd recommend it to anyone, you can find them for as low as $280 at some places now that the new 500 series came out...

yeah but its got some really nice output features too

tough call. I'll eventually have a disply for my standalone that'll showw all of that so I dont know what I'll do just yet. soo many options especially with the prices non these things falling so much its a tough choice

if i can figure out if the tach signal would work i think im gonna go with the zt-2. i wish the guy had a number i could get him at to find out. i know units like the safc have adjustable signal inputs for the tach input, and this makes no mention of it. i cant see much use to datalog without an rpm to correspond. if it doesnt match up i think im gonna go with the lm-1. thanks for the replies...

anyone know someone running the zt-2 with a ka?
