ECUTalk USB Nissan Consult Cable Interface - Australian Made

This cable connects most Nissan cars with the 14 pin grey consult port to a laptop via the USB port (without the need for USB/Serial adaptors) for diagnostic and data logging purposes, to check sensors are operating correctly, to check/clear error codes, etc (more details below). This cable comes with a CD containing the USB drivers/install guides and consult software listed below (which includes the ECUTalk software). Now you can help diagnose problems with your car without a trip to a Nissan workshop.

This cable has a miniature (SMD) circuit (see pictures below) inside the USB plastic connector to interface with the Nissan Consult diagnostic port, and it uses the genuine Nissan Consult connector which fits perfectly and on most cars allows the fuse box cover to be closed with the cable connected which makes driving with it connected easier. These cables were designed by us in Australia (so there is no middle man). They use an FTDI chip for USB functionality.

ECUTalk USB Consult Cable

Once connected (and USB drivers from the CD are installed), and the car is on or running and your chosen software loaded, you can then (depending on which software you are using):

View sensor data (e.g. gauges, also ECUTalk software also has economy/fuel consumption/distance, etc 'sensors')

Sensors include (there are others depending on car model): RPM, Speed, O2, Throttle, Battery, Timing, Air Flow, Duty Cycle, Water Temperature, AAC, etc

Log sensor data (for later graphing in Excel, etc)

View error codes, and the number of times the car has started since the error code was logged

Clear error codes

Aid in adjusting idle by locking timing to allow comparison with a timing light

Allow other 'active tests' to be performed, such as shutting off cylinders (if one cylinder is misfiring, you can discover which by turning them off one at a time)

These tasks can be performed with software that will be provided on a CD with the cable:

ECUTalk (our own software, gauges pictured below left)

OBD Scantech 1.29 Nissan (gauges pictured below right)

Conzult (freeware version, picture furthest below)

Calumsult

Suitable for most Nissan car models from 1989-2000 that have the 14 pin grey consult port, which is typically found near or attached to the in-cabin fuse box. It will not work for newer vehicles with the OBDII plug (e.g. 350Z). It wont work if you have replaced your ECU with any aftermarket one like PowerFC, Autronic, EMS, etc (but remaps or daughterboards like Nistune with the original ECU are OK). The popular Nissans in Australia that are supported includes (but is not limited to - just check for the consult port if your car isnt listed):

R32 Skyline (9/89+ only, first few months from launch in 6/89 did not support consult)

R33 Skyline

R34 Skyline

S13 Silvia / 180SX / 200SX (SR20 engines only, not CA18)

S14 Silvia / 180SX / 200SX

S15 Silvia / 180SX / 200SX (check for consult connector)

Z32 300ZX (except for 96 model which might not work with all software)

N14 Pulsar (including GTiR)

N15 Pulsar

B13 NX Coupe

K11 Micra (check for plug, some late model may have an OBDII plug instead)

U12 Pintara (KA24 only)

U13 Bluebird

A32 Maxima

GQ Patrol (TB42E only)

GU Patrol (TB45E, RD28ETi, TD42Ti - check plug, some TB45E have an OBDII plug instead, as do all ZD30)

R50 Pathfinder (VG33E, 95-05, check your port as some later models have an OBDII plug instead)

Been used once but then upgraded ECU to a power fc and have no use for it anymore. .

cheers guys!

$80 including postage to 2777?

I'll have a Nistune on my Bnr32 - so I presume that interface will reflect accurate readings?

If so to these two questions I'll take it.Ta

    • The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.
    • Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.
    • Hello , im new here and i have A31 home build  RB25det neo stock eng / turbo  aem ems 2 blue connector  aem 3.5 map aem cas disk aem wideband connected to ecu  355 lph pump 550 nismo yellow injectors side feed aftermarket regulator  and won’t start with base aem tuner basic tune eventually flipped cas 180 degree so it triggers on correct stroke not in exhaust cycle  Now it won’t start Wideband reads 10 and 11 at lowest fuel setting  and will share calibrations soon for aem tuner i think something is wrong in aem tuner    please if you have any information, am very grateful         
    • Legend. I ended up finding the facebook account of the owner of the first car i sent but sadly he deactivated the account. I think you’re right in saying it’s some sort of well done custom job. Really appreciate your help anyways.
    • Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.
