No luck for me on torque. I was already using the init string valf posted. Not convinced my 327 is working. I've heard a great deal of the cheap Chinese 327's have faulty J1850 PWM capability. I've ordered a v-gate from Sydney.

It's kinda awesome, the more I look the more data I find. Even has stuff I didn't see on my consult 3. Updated with more pics in previous post. Update rate is fine. Best thing is it is stable. No crashes. Let's see if we can log. That would seal the deal.

Update rate is reported as 201ms if I'm reading it correctly

I have another Chinese consult 3 on the way which they promise will be stable. Be interesting to find out if the replacement is. Although I think Scotty has a stable consult 3 with a different version of software.

BoostdR, is that with the same elm adapter you tried Torque with?

I've finally received my usb elm adapter, will start trying out things on my side but it's really cool to know HobDrive supports our cars :)

Will use it as a reference to make sure my adapter isn't faulty.

Pretty busy lately so I won't do much coding soon but I'm definitely still keen to get something cool to read sensors and read/reset DTC codes.

Thanks again BoostdR ;)

No worries Valf. I tried torque today with the new adaptor but had no luck getting it to connect to the adaptor or ecu, I'm sure it's possible for the adaptor anyway. May need to remove all my previous setting and start again.

HobDrive have kindly given me a 50% off coupon code for the app which I am allowed to give to SAU members. I just can't publicly post it. PM me if you would like the code. :D

I might dig out my OBDLink and see if I can get it to work with the HobDrive demo. I never had any luck with their scan tool app, but it'd be a nice win if it works with an alternative app! Im not going to hold my breath though :P

I have the full version up and running, haven't noticed any major difference from the demo version, but it's early days.

I did learn the mini Bluetooth Chinese ELM327's in a version 2.1 don't work as they are a clone chip. The v1.4 and 1.5 are better apparently. Also most android based double din stereos have a non standard cut down Bluetooth stack so most Bluetooth ELM327's don't work anyway.

Anyway the main screen really needs to have the sensors customized to be of value to us. This can be done, but at simple coding level. I'll look at it when I'm at work next.

I haven't had a chance to clear any CEL's as I don't have any atm.

There is some level of graphing/logging for fuel trims and lambda but nothing like torque or Nissan Data Scan offer with selected sensor X-Y axis logging.

There is a fast scan option which looks to double the update rate.

I'll have a read through the manual prob on Sat as I have a couple of cars to dyno tomorrow.

My replacement consult 3 arrived. It's just as unstable as my original. Seems to be the norm.

I asked hobdrive to customize the general screen to our sensors. Will see how it goes. Been nice and stable for me so far.

    • GTSBoy on your suggestion on another thread I had a look at those injectors and ended up getting them because of the quality.  Got the expensive ones.  
    • Hey guys been looking everywhere to try and find the correct gtr hood latch support part number but only found the first half and when I search with that number it sends me to an r34. The first part I found was 62515. If anyone could help me with the rest then I’d really appreciate it. Or if there’s some alternative hood latch support that would work even better cause I can’t find any for sale. (Searched on upgarage, partsouq,buyee,rhdjapan) 
    • If you've only done the upper control arms on the rear, AND you have changed their length (by more than about 1mm) to set the camber you want, then you will definitely need/want to install traction arms also. Adjusting the camber arms on their own WILL introduce bump steer and make the car unpleasant to drive. Most owners have no idea that their car could behave infinitely better than what they put up with. I'm not entirely sure what the Stageas need, but I am thinking that unless you have massive front spring rates and pretty soft rear springs, you have waaaay too much rear bar. Oversteer city, in my estimation. Combined with possible excessive bump steer from maladjusted arms, that could be a recipe for nastiness. ATR43SS2 is not a highflow. It is an outright replacement turbo. It's a little bit bigger than the largest highflow profile that Tao does. Probably a solid 300rwkW turbo where the bigger highflows will be about 30-40rwkW less. Nevertheless, we're only talking about ~300 rwkW, which is well within the abilities of the stock ECu to run with a Nistune on board. I would do so without hesitation - and I will be doing so when I get my finger out and actually get the injectors and AFM installed. But, if you would prefer to drop a whole lot more money on the ECU side, then I suspect you're looking at Haltech. The Haltech fanbois here will all spout on about all the available engine protection you can have, that you can't have with the Nistune option. And they're right. But it doesn't really come for free either. You will spend more money on extra sensors and the like, plus the work to install them. If the engine was built and therefore represented a big investment to protect, then I'd say definitely do it. If you view the current (and forever into the future) shortage of replacement engines as something to prompt similar protection, then also, do it. If you see a destroyed RB25 as an opportunity to put in a Mercedes or other V12 (like I kinda do)... then your perception of the risk/reward might differ. These are good injectors. You can also get a "better" set of the same with more flow matching, for more $$. 1000cc is where you will want to be. You will need an R35 AFM and adapter tube if you want to stay with Nistuned stock ECU. Otherwise, if going Haltech, you can ignore. As for intercooler. Just about anything will do. You're only talking about ~300rwkW. Just put a big core in there. Be aware that return flows do add significant pressure drop and will cost power and will make the turbo work harder to achieve the same goals. If you can manage a proper crossflow, do it. I'm keeping my very good return flow because I'm only expecting to be in the ~250rwkW range, and will live with whatever outcome I get.
    • I have a heap that i have collected if you want some authentic ones still. Pm me if your interested!
