Hey guys, anyone wishing to try some new software to interface with the consult port on your vehicle?

look here..

http://www.tangentrix.com/forums/viewforum.php?f=5

Software is called TECU, and will work with the same interface as used by CalumSult, ConZult etc...

Check it out and let me know if it works on your vehicle. :headspin:

the pga forums (pulsar.org.au) had some guys in WA selling them. ive made a few for the interested on silviansw forums. you can find most of the stuff you need from jaycar and make it yourself if your good with electronics, have a lot of spare time and can track down a consult connector (or hard wire it)

as for the software in the original post, ill check it out soon, more free alternatives the better!

okay got a converter and tried it out last night, i felt so Fast&Furious driving around with the laptop in my car :) but some comments (please note this is the only software i've used so far):

* The user interface is rubbish and confusing.

* The ROM dump most certainly doesn't take 11 mins, after 11 mins i wasn't even 10% complete.

* The auto ECU detect worked fine for my RB20DET.

* The logging does its job, i was supprised at how often it sampled but many consecutive readings were the same at ALL variables so i kinda question if it was an update or a copy of teh previous.

* The application doesn't exit properly, after you close it it leaves a process called "Consult" running which muck you up if you open TECU again.

On the whole i think it's a promising product and above all it's free but it has a way to go yet, simple things like using check-boxes when it should be radio buttons, the UI REALLY let it down and is so important.

i also have some settings.dat error message on startup.

always happens until you run it and save-settings.

also you need to download the 1.7Mb zip at the top of the thread THEN replace the default exe with f revision exe (~400kb). I got the f by itslef and it confused teh crap outta me.

How hard will it be to make the cable to hook up your laptop?

Would any body have a parts list?

Ive installed a RB20 into another car with only the Engine wiring loom will i find the Consult conneter on the ECU wiring loom? if not how to you hard wire 1 in?

Thanks Damo!!!

I have a tutorial online to make the consult interface (with genuine consult connector) - based on the PLMS design.

Also have another one on how to make the connector from ATX plug (The tutorial on tangentrix is a little confusing in some parts)

DIY Connector : HERE

Consult Interface : HERE

I have the genuine (and rare) consult port connectors for sale as well if you're not confident enough that the DIY connector will do the job

    • The 296mm rotors are the R33 turbo brakes. The 310mm rotors are the R34 turbo brakes. The calipers are nearly the same, but not. They're the same caliper but the R34 caliper has longer legs so that it sits out far enough to go over the rotor. The pads are the same for both. When you say, "I bough tsome EBC"....did you just mean pads? Or rotors? 310mm rotors fit under 17" wheels. There may be some wheels without enough clearance though. I can't fit my fingers between the barrel of my wheel and the "corners" of my R34 calipers, but there is plenty of room behind the spokes. This is on Enkei RPF1. You can fit 324mm rotors inside a 17" wheel, but I'd be willing to bet that it would be close to impossible with the Nissan/Sumitomo caliper (using an adapter, of course), because the Sumitomo caliper is fatter than the Brembo caliper that is supposed to go on the 324mm rotors.
    • Hi. Can someone tell me what brakes(and mainly WHERE) can i buy brakes on R34 GTT? I bought some EBC which SHOULD go on my car(i have GT but it has GTT brakes) but it does not fit, Brakes are "too" small(296mm) Are 310mm be good or? I have 17 inch wheel so no "big boys" but for me driving i just need one that fits and i can get here in EU/Czech.
    • Since winter isn't that harsh anymore in Poland, i will definetely drive it 365 days a year 😉. But if the snow hits i will try it for sure and let U know. Only swap i am planning to do is of course R34 GTR front 😍.
    • Hey. Very valuable information about pitwork, I will pay attention when buying any consumable parts 🙏 As for the carpets - I got a handful of information from nengun, from which it appears that indeed the carpets for the driver's side are OEM. They are not able to show me any pictures due to the long chain of different sales entities but after I place the order, as soon as the goods arrive at the nengun warehouse from which they will send the shipment to me they can send me photos and if my purchase differs from OEM I can immediately return it / cancel the purchase. I think I will give it a try 😉. Of course i'll let you know what's what as soon as i get them P.s. I know the topic is not relevant to the thread, but both nengun and amayama have these SICK 😍 trunk room lamps available. Do you know anyone who ordered them? I need to have one in my car
