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

yah got your pm in dec saying that a new version would be out jan/feb... tis all good...

will do.

i have a few prototype displays available. these are functionally the same as the normal displays, and will be firmware upgradable etc like the others, main difference is they come without the black box/enclosure (which may suit people as the LCD alone is much slimmer to mount somewhere.

$175 + post (express 7, registered 10). If you dont want the integrated consult interface, then you can minus $10 off that. add $6 if paying by paypal. i can also supply display with leads for you to hook up your own buttons (rather than using the ones on board). cable lengths can be whatever you want.

see http://www.ecutalk.com latest news post for more info, and a couple more pics

Peter,

is it true that this consult/LCD and your previous consult box dont work with a powerfc? They only work on the stock nissan ECU?

Any ideas on what you can use to get data from a powerfc -> carputer (via serial), which wont cost an arm + a leg?

thats right, consult is a nissan thing, if apexi implemented it then they might have visits from nissan lawyers :D

look into fc datalogit (or something to that effect). i think paulr33? has compiled some form of powerfc faq somewhere which might have info on it, not sure.

i can actually make 1-2 prototype ones, with the normal black enclosure, except it will just need a bit of black tape on ends to ensure it doesnt pop open (shouldnt anyway, but just to be sure).

you can see how theres a bit of a gap where the bits join. it would be $190+post for that

the next batch, im considering changing straight away to a 20x4 setup (rather than doing another lot of 40x2 characters setup same as this one) which isnt as long, has buttons on front, and would fit in a DIN slot (<50mm high) if required. eg 125x45mm (rather than 188x39mm like current one). price of next lot would be determined by how much the plastic enclosures cost, maybe around $220 mark? theyll be as cheap as i can make them, cause everyone should have one!

the next batch will be, at this stage, around september mark.

Love your work man. Put me down as a definite for your September run. A 20x4 screen sounds good too.

I reckon this thing is a good reason to go piggyback - i'm gonna love having one to go with my e-manage ultimate.

Actually..... PM sent.

september, october, november maybe...these things always take longer than you want them too :cheers:

just about to start redesign of PCB for version 2. enclosure design is part way there too.

  • 1 month later...

the main part needed to run the display wont be available till ~12 dec (at current estimates by supplier). so i guess thats a rough aim for me to have all the hardware done and ready by.

then its just a matter of how many features can be put in before a limited (or full) release.

if i can get the firmware updating working fine (ie you can update firmware on unit yourself like you would with a adsl modem or computer bios) then ill be able to get them out sooner than later.

ive already bought 30 lcd modules, and probably have half the parts needed for the boards already. need to finish off design of PCB and get some prototypes made, hopefully by start of next month. then need enclosures done...once enclosures are ready, final pcb to be manufactured/assembled (hopefully wont need to do most of assembly myself), and then a lot of work on the firmware (the stuff that runs the display)

    • Hi guys . Can someone help me  I bought an Android screen for my Nissan fuga but it won't turn on   
    • 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.
