just to verify... it will work with stock ecu'd R32GTST?

does it come with PC software? or is that still in development? and will we get the software when u are done? OR can u supply RS232 interface spec as I can then write my own interface (we interface to patient monitors at work we've written about 20 serial interfaces)

yes it will work with r32 gtst, it says so in the manual!

im not writing any pc software, there are already programs out there (srtalk, conzult free) that do everything you need anyway.

RS232 interface spec is available online too, to help you write your own pc programs.

Just thought I'd let you know that I took a few pics of device working in my car and posted a quick review. I'll add some more once I finalize my laptop-logging configuration.

Find it at:

Just got mine in the mail today. Top marks to Daren on this piece of gear.

For those of you who were wanting a prettier looking version (I was one) I have to say that the pictures do not do the unit justice. It looks bloody nice in real life. If only it was 2mm narrower and would fit in the ashtray cutout I would be 100% happy. Guess I will have to be satisfied with 99.5%

Don't think about it... BUY ONE.

Even if the ecu is piggybacked this will still work. The brand of the LCD is displaytech from memory.

tang0: I havent received any mail from you yet!

PTR33: Thanks for the feedback :) Many people are happier with it once they actually see the unit.

AGHH !

I sent you a mail back with my address etc on it ...

I'mm Pm you with my address now

thanks

Yeah all LCD manufacturers make 20x4 lcd screens with similar (if not the same) size PCBs, so a screen from any manufacturer will work.

You have to remember though that places like matrixorbital and crystalfontz add their own serial interfaces to the screens, which you will need to remove to work with my module.

Also, those places like to sell their screens at $100+ AUD. Do you want a different backlight that bad?

Hey any idea wether this will work on a r34 gtt? The manual indicated that it may work..... If it works with a R34 GTT Triptronic I would get one also.. :) I'm located on gold coast so if anyone has one on gold coast or in brisbane and willing to let me try it out.. PM me.. :(

Almost forgot.. this devices is definitely read-only right? :rofl:

    • The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.
    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.
