I would love to know how those Consult 4 CS300 scanners work as well, I have found a supplier that sells them direct from china for a fairly reasonable price. Has anyone on here used one? I have emailed them a few questions. If it does what is says on the tin it would be an awesome tool to have but I guess one of us will have to put their money on the line.........It may well be me.

I would be game to throw some cash on the line, what was the estimated price direct? I noticed most have wireless dongles included but some of the cheaper ones don't.

If we can prove one works, it may even be worth trying the remap card they also offer.

I looking at about $300 delivered but have asked whether it works on our cars, if i can get money back if it doesn't etc so will have to see what they say first.

I am also in the process of "acquiring" some related software to play with. I'm having no luck getting my nm35 repaired so am looking to go fully self sufficient if I can get set-up at home. I already got one of those memoscan N607 things

which is good but not fully functioned like this consult 4 thing is meant to be.

    • I'll chime in here with my experience. Motec is great if you have the money and know a good person to support you. They don't really offer retail support and the dealers make SFA margin on the product, so the business model is setup for you to be supported by a dealer. I'm lucky enough to know a guy who's ex Motec and very generous with his time and is a total boffin. In addition to that, I also use Brad Sherriff who's an absolute legend to work with. The downside to Motec is the software isn't very intuitive, pay to play, poor/limited online support and costly upgrades.  I've not owned an Emtron myself but a good friend runs a performance workshop in Melbourne who is an Emtron dealer. They won't be fitting any more to customer cars because of the poor level of knowledge within the Emtron support team and lack of ability to solve issues with the platform. Not to mention the circumstances around the establishment of the product and company in the first place. I've run Motec's since the old M8's back in the early 2000's so I'm certainly not without a bias but I look at it like this. Everyone acknowledges Motec as the best consumer grade product without spending mega dollars on Bosch Motorsport / Life Racing and so on. When you consider the real cost of your car (not what you tell your mrs) the cost difference between an Emtron and a Motec is tiny, why would you compromise over a few hundred dollars?
    • Closer to getting the shit box back on the road. That long hose, took 2 months to acquire. However the rest were all already to go same week I ordered them. For those playing at home, that long hose is for a RB25DE N/A motor, as they don't run a water/oil heat exchanger, the hoses underneath the plenum are much more elegant and not a maze of shit.
    • One thing you may be able to leverage is the fact that the R34 N/A has the same setup as a S15. The S15 also is a car that gets 350Z diff swapped, so they will also likely have this problem. The caveat of course is it's possible the dash is different between the R34 NA and the S15, but the subframe/sensors/axles/diff setup are the same. I can't remember now as it's been too long, but I don't generally think people need to swap dashes between the N/A dash and the turbo dash when they do things like change the gearbox out, turbo their car, manual swap it, it's just not something I've seen mentioned so this could be compatible.
