Consult port PC interface

[paulr33]

haha sorry will get pics this wekeend

ive got new veriosn of software (nissan data scan also)

i had a friend with an r32 rb20det who said the cable did NOT work. unsure why

[GTRgeoff]

Does it work with PFC also ?

[paulr33]

no it wont as the consult protocol isnt part of the pfc and it doesnt emulate it to the consult diag port

[GTRgeoff]

have to get fcDatalogit then

[paulr33]

it depends on what you want to mointor and how if you have on dash tv (i do hehe) you can get hks camp which does engine monitoring tv video out rca lead so you can easily run it to a tv on the dash or lcd screen. the unt is about $400 and reads basic info rev speed fuel water temp etc its another $400 for addon to read extra stuff then about $80 for each extra item like exhaust temp boost pressure oil pressure as they dont come from the ecu

is it possible just to order the connector??? [email protected]

[paulr33]

yeah u can. the connector is the same as the connector used in the nissan pulsar n14.

it the plug used toi connect door wiring to the car wiring (somewhere internal) and its about $25 AUSD. You need to modify it a tiny bit but it works perfectly

Anyone know if these are plug and play for the R34?

[NewKleer]

the r34 might be using the later consult 2 protocol, so may be incompatible

ive ordered the parts to try this myself. have any of the guys who said they are giving it a go themselves, got one working? what did u do for the pcb? (is there like a prototype pcb like disck smith have that u can get it on easily (without need for custom pcb)?

[paulr33]

i got one from plms consulting, works fine, came prebuilt and tested fine

workes on r33 series 2 consult fine

[TomR33]

Yes it will work on R34 GTT and GT.

any idea if the components/layout match the schematic (http://www.plmsdevelopments.com/images_if/...ult_if_rev3.pdf) or if theyve changed at all?

particularly whether the voltage reg, 78L05 (rated for 100ma) holds its cool or not (theres 7805 rated at 1A which is an alternative)

was asking moreso about those who made it themselves (as theyd know the answers to most of the questions by others making them themselves...) for things like what pcb they used

Yes it will work on R34 GTT and GT.

after more reading, the earlier versions of the interface dont work due to too low a resistor value (r1) which is now gone to 6.8k from 4.7k in the latest schematic from plms
