My new Wideband (JAW) what ya guys think? - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

MegasquirtCA · 09-11-2007, 09:50 PM

So I found out about this low cost wideband controller. Controller with Display comes out to about $65 plus $42 for the Bosch LSU 4.2 O2 sensor, than $16 for harness supplies or use the supplied terminals. Anyways I bought the cases for about $5. The kit offers datalogging as well and input to any standalone.

johngriff · 09-11-2007, 09:58 PM

Your DIY box looks alot better than i would have imagined!

Sweet!

MegasquirtCA · 09-11-2007, 10:04 PM

I went to radioshack and never knew they sold whats called "Project Enclosures" its cases made for PCB's and worked out perfectly for me.

Hopefully I'll be using it this week possibly thursday when I fix my downpipe.

I would like to know were I can get a this stuff

MegasquirtCA · 09-11-2007, 11:27 PM

http://www.14point7.com/JAW/JAW.htm

they sell unassembled and assembled, I can build them free of charge if people are interested.

bardabe · 09-11-2007, 11:39 PM

+1 for you, I'm going to try this sometime in a friend's car. ha ha

Radioshack Part#

Display Case
Part# 270-1802

Board Case
Part# 270-1805
http://www.radioshack.com/product/in...entPage=search

40mm Fan
Part# 273-240
http://www.radioshack.com/product/in...entPage=search

I recommend going with a 50mm fan or 60mm at the most and nothing bigger than 20mm width.

Something like this is perfect.

O3DigitalBath · 09-11-2007, 11:52 PM

seems cool, the DIY case would be nicer if the plug/wire was on the opposite side as the display instead of same side.

Well I'd only do it if we got 5 people. It would save money on shipping. I would be testing them before they left, and in the event if it doesnt work the dude is cool on doing refunds.

Just a little background on my electronic capabilities. I build Megasquirt ecu's.

jskateborders · 09-12-2007, 12:50 AM

How would you wire it up for an sr, since (or so ive heard) you have to have an sr o2 sensor, or do you just use an ecxess exhaust outlet, and get the bosch sensor. aslo what car did you do this for? What is the part number on the o2 sensor.
thanks

johngriff · 09-12-2007, 12:55 AM

If you put a wide band sensor in place of the OEM O2 you will just overheat it. The wideband needs to be mounted before the CAT, around under your knee to keep from overheating the sensor.

Welding Required for ANY wideband install.

Like John said your gonna overheat the sensor which will cause false readings. Innovate recommends on Turbocharged motors that the wideband be placed 36 inches after the turbo.

This isn't really for permanent installation, dont forget Wideband O2 sensors DO NOT LIKE being rich all the time, if you run like a 12:1 AFR you'll destroy your sensor in a few months, and leaving it in and not turned on will destroy it even sooner.

But if you truly want the JAW kit can output a narrowband signal which you can feed directly to the stock ecu.

As for part number
VW Part#021906262B
Bosch# 17014

More info on the harness parts

I tried to mimick the functionality of the Innovate LM-1 the only difference is mine is just smaller.

thejapino · 09-12-2007, 07:06 PM

Hey I pm'd you earlier about putting one together for me.

+1 for the idea for putting in a narrow band output as well

MegasquirtCA · 09-12-2007, 07:12 PM

Just to make it clear I'm not the one who designed the board, its a guy in Canada who did all the work, he sells kits and I in turn put them together for interested parties.

98koukile · 09-12-2007, 08:07 PM

So $107 total plus shipping?

chuy · 09-12-2007, 08:20 PM

Way dude 107 plus shipping Im in

Lucient · 09-12-2007, 09:14 PM

Some screen shots of the software and a better explanation of the features like data logging, sampling rate, and calibration would definitely sell me on this product. I didn't see any of the things I mentioned on your site. Your forum seemed pretty helpful also

MegasquirtCA · 09-12-2007, 09:22 PM

Let me do the price break down.

If 5 people are in and pay ahead it will cost

Board: $45
Display: $25

Harness Parts
Housing VW# 1J0-973-733 you need 1 $5.75
Terminals VW# 000-979-133-A you need 3 $3.59 Total $10.77
Grommet VW# 357-972-741-A you need 6 $0.29 Total $1.74
Total for harness $18.26

Display Case $2.69
Board Case $3.79
Total $6.48

Fan is about $3 from Newegg.

If I get 5 people knock off $5 so $70 turns to $65. knock off like another $5 because cost of shipping is saved since it all goes to me which is $10 I'll eat that cost.

$5 Priority Mail.

So total price is $102.74. Make it $110 you get everything what you see in the pic, also a harness thats not pictured. It connects to the O2 sensor. The Extra $8 is for tax, supplies, and extra shipping charges that may pop up.

O2 sensor is not included but can be easily purchased for about $44 shipped from Amazon.

Just to clear it up again, Im not the creator I'm just a consumer

I'm just offering assembly services because I know some people are uncomfortable soldering on PCB, it helps build up my portfolio.

Heres a video of the unit in use and it shows the software.

jskateborders · 09-12-2007, 09:35 PM

I will definitely do 110 for this thing

MegasquirtCA · 09-13-2007, 12:48 PM

Alright lets get a list going for the people that wanna get one for $110. I need 5 people for that price if not its gonna cost $125. This doesnt include sensor. I might pick up another set for a friend.

So far:
thejapino
jskateborders
Chuy
98koukile (unknown)
punxva

I'll start collecting money friday the 21, I'll either PM you guys or post on here where to send payment.

punxva · 09-13-2007, 03:41 PM

i'll most def. take one too, add me to that list man

MegasquirtCA · 09-14-2007, 01:11 PM

thejapino · 09-14-2007, 03:55 PM

Looking forward!!

but can it data log

sorry if i missed that

MegasquirtCA · 09-21-2007, 01:10 PM

It can datalog, it has 3 inputs for datalogging. Its primitive as in no graphic display but it gets the job done. If you look at the first pic in my post you'll see at the bottom middle of the board it says Datalog with 3 tiny holes. You solder 1 wire for each hole, I believe the one with the number 1 to the left of it is for RPM.

I'll be more than glad to still do the assembly even if we dont get enough people.
