thats right, peak values are just since its been turned on

time trial times, option settings are stored when unit is off

hey pete looks like you've put a lot of time and effort in to this.I'm very interested in this,but wouldn't be able to get one till late jan early feb.is it necessary to have a laptop.

also would it be possible to put a dimmer on the display

if i do another lot the displays will be dimmer anyway (to reduce power and make them slightly less bright), but itd be too hard to put a dimmer on when it would serve little purpose and only add to the cost

thats right, peak values are just since its been turned on

time trial times, option settings are stored when unit is off

hmm, oh well no point me complaining now. Was surprised as the ones Impakt made store in memory peak values.

Also, how accurate are the km speed readings? cos it reads up to 10km slower than the speed shown on dash, and i stil have stock wheels/tyres so rolling diameter is stock.

itd wouldnt be hard to have them stored in memory permanently, but then you would have to reset them to know if the peak value u got was from this time or not - for me it was much more useful to have it only for the current session

i assume that the speed km readings would be more accurate than speedo (i think by law speedos cant read lower than actual, so most of them read too high). the fact odo trip/distance in time trials are so close means that speed read by consult must be as accurate as odo input, which means if there is still a difference, then its solely speedo gauge thats not correct.

thanks for clearing that up :laugh:

also, as a point of interest i was refering to the S15 being out by 10kmh at 130kmh reading 120kmh, so if anything it should be more accurate than the my 32 due to newer speedo calibration...?

u mean newer as in the car is newer?

will probably not make much diff, and what i said before also may not apply for imports.

without having a known correct standard to measure against, the real answer as to which is more accurate is "who knows?"

  • 3 weeks later...

ive decided to hold off on the next batch till after i finish uni (ie july this year). going to spend a bit of time on the ecutalk software and maybe do a batch of plain consult interfaces before then.

wont really have enough spare time to doing another lot before then (esp the risk of money issues if they dont sell quick enough and given im not at work full time while uni is on, dont want to risk anything)

im still hoping to get some time to add the trip meter screen ive mentioned randomly (so if i get that done existing users can upgrade to that version)

Just in regards to this..

Ive decided that because I have my track day coming up on the 26th and I want to keep the display in the car at the time im going to make up a bracket so the lcd wont move..

I'll let you guys know along with some pics..

Pete I was looking at mine and I dont think I would want it any dimmer?

I am OLD and all but it is just legible to my eyes now and any dimmer in daytime would be hard to read.

Just my 2c and maybe doesnt apply to younger guys with better eyesight. :laugh:

I dont honestly know how I would have been without this unit over the last month or so trying to yet unsuccesfully fix my ERROR 34 Knock Sensor.

I can defeat it when wiring in the old sensors with a known faulty loom on one sensor??

And replacing the entire wires from the ECU to the Loom Plug to Knock sensors with proven continuity to sensors still gives ERROR 34!! &^$%^#

The new annular SR type sensors with Fuel Injector type plug MUST NEED THE RHS PIN TO WORK!!

I was told its the LHS PIN if the socket is on the bottom looking face down on it which is how its wired!

Its the only thing it can be!

Sorry for rant.... &*%($#**%^#(*^

yeh theyre all gone now - the last 5 took 5 weeks to sell, so no one has any excuses for missing out :laugh:

in daylight, 95% of the light for viewing display comes from natural light - the LED is useless. making it twice as bright will only improve daytime viewing by about 5%...i think maybe you want to angle the display more towards the driver

  • 1 month later...

Pete, any chance of firmware updates promised a few months ago, id love to have my injector readings perfect before i put my new ones in and turbo on...... ?

yeh i can do that (i did pm u ages ago but i guess u dont check em!)

i assume ull do your injectors/turbo before say mid-year? (which is when ill likely have the trip meter stuff done around)

  • 2 weeks later...

yes:

1) a trip meter screen (fuel used, average economy, speed, av speed, trip time, distance, etc),

2) a MPG option for the yanks.

3) maybe a secondary sensor screen (to get anything thats not on main screen, like switches such as fuel pump on/off, TPS closed/open, lean/rich, ecu self-learn O2 alpha values, etc),

may be other improvements to current features, like continually monitoring fault codes when in fault code display, etc.

once i finish uni ill have a lot more time to spend on things like this.

    • My guesstimate, with no real numbers to back it up, is it won't effect it greatly at all.its not a huge change in position, and I can't see the air flow changing from in turbulence that much based on distance, and what's in front of it. Johnny and Brad may have some more numbers to share from experience though.
    • Which solenoid? Why was it changed? Again, why was this done? ...well, these wear..but ultimately, why was it changed? Did you reset the idle voltage level after fitment? I'm just a tad confused ~ the flash code doesn't allude to these items being faulty, so in my mind the only reason to change these things, would be some drive-ability issue....and if that's the case, what was the problem? Those questions aside, check if the dropping resistor is OK ...should be 11~14 ohms (TCU doesn't throw a flash code for this) ~ also, these TCU designs have full time power (to keep fault code RAM alive), and I think that'll throw a logic code (as opposed to the 10 hardware codes), if that power is missing (or the ram has gone bad in the TCU, which you can check..but that's another story here perhaps).
    • Question for people who "know stuff" I am looking at doing the new intake like the one in the picture (the pictured is designed for the OEM TB and intake plenum), this design has the filter behind the front bar, but, the filter sits where the OEM duct heads into the front bar, and the standard aperture when the OEM ducting is removed allows the filter to pulled back out of the front bar into the engine bay for servicing, a simple blanking plate is used to seal the aperture behind the filter This will require a 45° silicone hose from the TB, like the alloy pipe that is currently there, to another 45° silicone hose to get a straight run to the aperture in the front bar Question: how will it effect the tune if I move the MAF about 100-150mm forward, the red is around where my MAF is currently, and the green would be where it would end up Like this This is the hole the filter goes through  Ends up like this LOL..Cheers    
    • Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.
    • Pull codes via the self-diagnosis procedure. As far as I can tell this is just a sign of transmission issues but not a code unto itself.
