I feel like an idiot..The unit comes with a female connector for a computer. I have never seen a computer with a male connector on it so I bought a rs232 to usb adapter (2 actually) and both say it shouldn't need a driver above windows 98.

I am lost. There is a light on the unit..nope no lighty uppy.

Anyone written an idiots guide to Nissan Consult and software suitable. I can't even download any suitable software without errors.

Cheers

Don't despair mate it does run on Win7 you just gotta go through the right motions.

I'm confident you still need a driver for Win7. Look at the PLMS drivers page at http://www.plmsdevelopments.com/usb_drivers.htm and then download the second file ( http://www.plmsdevelopments.com/files/PLMS...in7_Drivers.zip ). If I remember correctly it's a two step installation process: when first plugged in the unit is recognised as USB-to-Serial adapter (with a generic driver I think), and only after this you can install the PLMS driver.

Once you've got the drivers sorted make sure you select the right COM port setting in Nissan DataScan.

Oh and one of the three leds should be on at all times when the cable is plugged into your computer.

Hope this helps.

    • Can u check this way it works for power supply?
    • These coils draw 10amps that what i read online
    • I appreciate the detailed explanation, think I understand now. I spent the better part of last night reading what I could about shuffle and potential solutions. I had replaced the OEM twin turbo pipe with an alternate Y pipe that is separated further away from the turbo. The current one is from HKS and I had a previous pipe that was separated even further away, both have shuffle. I had heard that a divider can be welded in to the OEM pipe to remove turbulence, and figure that aftermarket pipes that are more separated would achieve the same thing. From what I read, most people with -10 turbos get shuffle due to their size, though it's a bit less common with -5s on a standard RB26. I think Nismoid mentioned somewhere it's because OEM recirculation piping is common in Australia with -5 cars. It seems that the recommendation tends to vary between a few options, which I've ordered in what I think is most feasible for me:  1. Retune the MAP or boost controller to try to eliminate shuffle 2. Install OEM recirculation piping 3. Something called a 'balance pipe' welded onto the exhaust manifolds. I don't know if kits for this are available, seems like pure fabrication work 4. simply go single turbo My current layout is as follows: Garrett 2860 -5s HKS Racing Suction intake MAF delete pipes HKS racing chamber intake piping hard intercooler piping,  ARC intercooler HKS SSQV BOV and pipe Haltech 2500 elite ECU and boost solenoid/controller HPI dump pipes OEM exhaust manifolds HKS VCAM step 1 and supporting head modifications Built 2.6 bottom end All OEM recirculation piping was removed, relevant areas sealed off I'll keep an eye out for any alternative solutions but can get started with this.  Only other question is, does shuffle harm the turbo (or anything else)? It seems like some people say your turbo shafts will explode because of the opposing forces after a while and others say they just live with it and adjust their pedal foot accordingly. 
    • That worked out PERFECTLY! Thank you big time to JJ. He was able to swap me his stock diff. He drove all the way to me as well. Killer! Removal & install was pretty straightforward. The diff itself is HEAVY. So that’s a 2 man job.  Man does the car drive nice now! Couldn’t have worked out any better 👌
