I hope thats the case :)

I don't really understand the diagram, which bit is existing and which bit needs to be done?

Yes

Essentially you build this device, plug it into your lappy, run some software, which can be gotten for free, just google it, and start monitoring / logging data ..

tbh, I have ordered one of the consult port boxes impakt is selling over at this thread :

http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/sh...ghlight=consult

as i want to be able to view diag info on the fly, not have to look down at the laptop for info while driving. This device also does have the serial port as part of it.

But this serial device would be VERY cheap to build ...

if anyone is interesed I'd be happy to knock a few of them up, I have all the pcb etching stuff to hand, and most of the components ...

email me to : [email protected] if you would like one, and i'll work out some costs.

Cheers

Yes

If anyone would like me to build this, I can... for a small cost of course ...

Impakt has something similar for sale but its the whole package, built in display etc, this would be a nice cheap way of reading / logging data from your std ecu with your lappy ...

if anyone is interested, mail me at [email protected] and i'll start building one in the mean time

cheers

Rough price will be around the $100 ish mark ...

Still am in the process of moving house and doing lots of rennovation, so cant spend as much time on it as I want, but am working on it all the spare time I get.

Just waiting for some components to arrive at the moment, as soon as they arrive I'll be cutting the pcb, I have the design mostly done ...

As soon as I have a working prototype i'll make a post into the for sale section, until then, if anyone wants to contact me directly, i'll be happy to chat about them.

cheers

I have no clue about holdens, I only just moved to Aus from the UK at the end of last year, and over there, a 3.8 v6 is a HUGE engine capacity, we do have similar cars (vauxhall omega), but they only come with a 2.0 4 cyl std, a 2.5 v6, with the real high top spec ones being 3.0 v6

anyway, i'm still waiting for some components to arrive, will post results as and when I have them

  • 2 weeks later...

ive got mine, its tops. im using nissandatascan from tomasz k(something)

$25 australian, works well. heaps of diags and tests and real time monitoring and logging

i can do screen captures if you wanna see it

Yes I would. Free Conzult is mostly for 300zx and to buy it is a few hundred. My interface is slightly different, using a different clock generator but the frequency is the same, so should be sweet. I like their idea for Rx / Tx LED's ;)

What do you use to connect it to the consult socket?

    • They see me rollin' they hatin'....... Took me most of the day to make the necessary mods to the mounts to make them fit the car.  Fortunately I was able to just use the mounts that came with the rotisserie. The rear ones are really secure, the front I feel i might reinforce a bit more as it doesn't seem like enough attachment to the vehicle. I'm sure it's fine but better to be safe than (extremely...) sorry.  I drilled and tapped thread into additional M12 holes to each car mount where it attaches to the rotisserie as an extra fail-safe. Without them the side to side movement is just restricted by the allen head pinch bolts, nothing actually goes though the beam. Does now! I still need to adjust the rotisserie to get the car centred in terms of centre of gravity. If it's too high or too low relative to the rotational centre line of the car, it will be like a turtle and roll onto its back or as it currently sits, I dont think I'd be able to rotate it as it sits as it needs to lift the whole car up as it rotates. Ain't happening... I'm going to be nervous as hell the first time I go to spin it on its side...    
    • Oh yes done this when the window started flopping around.  Turns out the guides that run along the rail chanel had crumbed way. Took off the door card and pulled out the window mech, then the window, which you have to pull out through the top. As said unbolt the guide rail and don't spend 30 minutes getting frustrated trying to find a way to slide it out upwards cause that don't frigging work. Drop it down and out through the door hole. All I did to repair it was slice some 10mm clear plastic tube, vertically, then screw it to the guide rail both sides. This tubing rolls inward on both sides and leaves a gap wide enough to hold the window. To finish all I did was lube the plastic tube with olive oil and Bob's your uncle . . . well if he has the operation he can be your Aunt ! !  10 bucks in plastic tube and another 5 minute job done again . . . . YEH BULLSH#T ! My love for Skylines knows no bounds !
    • So was there a solution to this problem? I’m having this issue now. 
    • not expensive, just irreplaceable if you don't go sub 60 at wakie in that thing people will start talking
    • I haven't replaced that, but I have had the doors apart on the r32 a couple of times The door skin will be held on by a combination of clips and bolts, just take it slowly and make sure all the sneaky hidden bolts are out Once the skin is off you should be able to pop that piece off pretty easily, looks like there are only 2 bolts holding it on
