hey everyone.. thought maybe someone on here could shed some light on this for me since theres not much info on the net... trying to connect to computer but it keeps saying " no connection to ecu" .. on the website it says win 95 , 98 and 2000.... is this problem because im using windows 7?? thankyou

comm port uses usb cable

u mean it uses usb drivers? if so ok ill try and update.. if not im confused...

getting drivers form the asus website would be better then using microsoft ones hey??

seems i am up to date... wat a pos...

u need the usb driver that came with the microsoft software, windows 7 is a pain in the butt and if you connected the ecu and tried to connect without the correct usb driver than your up shit creek and gonna have a hard time getting it to work, sorry to be the bearer of bad news but i had the same issue with the Vi-pec software, i had to use the older usb driver that Vi-pec had.

im not sure with mi-corrects but do they have a serial cable coming out then the microsoft adaptor converts it to usb so that you can connect it to the commport of the laptop???

hmmm thanks for ur help jez... im just gunna give up on this laptop idea and go buy a handcontroller... only wanted to take some fuel out of it so i could let it idle and bleed the coolent system... thankyou anyway mate

and yeah it has a serial cable 9 pin.. then u have to buy the microtech laptop dongle thing then plug it in the a serial port... well thats the way i had it set up

    • If that's the wiring from the factory, I'd be inspecting the loom everywhere.   Any signs of that anywhere else, and seriously, I'd get rid of the car ASAP before the electrical gremlins make it worthless, or it goes up in flames on its own. That is scary how that insulation is failing!
    • I should note too as I have all 4 wheel speed inputs to the emtron I now have the emtron controlling the attessa solenoid for 4wd/traction and launch control strategies. 
    • It works quite well with the adjustibility within each of the programs of the turbolamik. Essentially p1 is drive and lockup comes on like a normal driver.  But in program 7 I have customised it to not request the lockup clutch to engage until something like 6500/7 when slip was the lowest. 
    • Yep, I like that. The tags are only on the first post of a thread and we don't get huge numbers of new threads. Also, I plan to add some more report types and we could have a member report type like 'review tags' then members could flag if they thought a topic wasn't tagged correctly.  No way man, I dig the input. Thanks! 
    • It's a valid thought. There's not exactly that functionality already (when creating a thread) - that's where the OP can use/create any tag they want. We'd have to come up with a way for the user to request their tags get reviewed or something. Otherwise the mods would have to review every new post's tags (for those that have them, anyway). There's kind of that functionality already exists to some extent, post facto of starting the thread, where the OP or any other user could report the post to admins, and request that tags get reviewed. We could do this already, and any user could already have made such a request. To make it a part of the forum proper, it would require an initial and an ongoing education programme, so that people know that it's a thing. OP based tagging/request for review would also require at least some (probably most) of the user base to be told that it's a thing they can do. Both of these things probably wouldn't spread too far and/or get used very much. If it was the standard approach on a lot of different sites, then it might do, because people would be used to it. Prank's approach to this differs from my original thought, by leaning into tagging. Which is fine - it's possibly better than what I originally suggested. In fact, I just went to the R32 GTR wiring diagram thread and added tags, including "Library". That's probably a good way to use tags and the idea of a library. We just have to drag together an (organised!) index of threads or posts that have that tag. I have yet to do any of my own follow up by pursuing worthy threads and posts and reporting/marking/tagging them for the library, such as the @Sydneykid stuff I was talking about, and possibly any amount of @Lithium 's and others' posts. At least if I tag them Library, we'll have a start.   Back to @Wazmond's idea as it relates to @PranK's, we might have some sort of a list of tags that are already used to scrape for this library. I'm not entirely sure how that would be presented or used, particularly if it got long. But it's yet another idea!   cheers
