First, JWT is probably the best choice compared to Superchips. I don't want to hear about Superchips, they are useless.

 

In the post , the guy stated JW got some source code from Nissan and modified it. Hmmm, probably not true, very difficult to believe if you know how car manufacturers work.

JWT90.bin is not a modified source code, the code is not modified to get a better throttle response, the maps are, which is not source code, you should know what is source code.

 

Have a look into JWT90.bin and you will find some modified maps (fuel and ign), that's true, based on 47P10 and you will find that also :

CUSTOM PROGRAMED BY C. STEPPLER J. WOLF P.O.P. JIM WOLF RACING EL CAJON,CA.

 

No other modification than the maps and rev limit, boost limit (...) which is not source code again, but code constants ...

 

Have a look to the fuel map and you will notice the closed loop area shrank ... why ... better throttle response in mid rev range .... no ... but because many Z owners have some dead lambda sensors, or how to override potential problems ....

Owners of JWT chips reported better fuel consumption on cruise, logic with dead sensors and closed loop area shrunk.

 

I hope the 300zx bin provided by JWT is not this one or has changed over the years. I would have wait for deeper changes ... in source code ....

thanks for that. It was an enthralling read! :D

Im sure that makes sense to someone.

 

well done on bringing our attention to a post made in 2001.......

EH...what was all that about?

Ah come on guys, be nice, it'd be useful to know if you were considering a JWT chip, and people are bound to search the archive for information. If the information they find isn't accurate that obviously isn't good. Certainly, I wouldn't touch Superchips with a barge pole anyway, but after all the good things I've read about JWT from various sources I'd certainly consider one of their ECUs.

 

ahhhhhhhh a post from the dark ages, but good old days. some good old familiar faces there.

 

you kids don't realise how safe you all are now in this new age of sanitised 300zx.co.uk ;) back then we were typing under death threats and suicide bummers that happened every other night at least ;) :p

 

suicide bummers that happened every other night at least

 

 

Now that is scary shit....

 

suicide bummers........were there lots of them, or just one that wasnt too good at the suicide bit?

LMFAO!!!! Suicide bummers? my god thats truly scary!!

Had a JWT chip which was very good but get one off Andy P instead... Much better!!!! :D :dance:

suicide bummers lol...... it wasn't a typo ;)
