with your usb/serial adaptor you should have drivers that come with it, that when installed will make a virtual com port (usually com4). is the issue that its not showing up as a com port at all? or that its showing up as somelike like com5+?

see attached image about how i can change my settings with my one via the control panel->system (device manager) thing, if thats what you're after

the com port dropdown (in calumsult) should list available com ports in it?

The usual painful com port problems, I never have any joy with them.

Have to restart the laptop every time I try something, so time consuming.

Plus the batery is now flat.

I can't get the Calumsult to see the ECU. Just to check that the interface is working OK, I have;

Solid red LED

Bright yellow LED until engine is running, then it goes dull, with an accasional flash

Green flashes at all times when the engine is running

:P cheers :D

once ive confirmed more are available (hopefully tonight or tomorrow), just pm me when ur sure about order - payment is as stated in the first post, either bank deposit or paypal - if u dont use internet banking then u can go into whichever bank is more convenient (stg/anz, let me know in pm) and ask to deposit money into the account (with details i give you).

then ill normally get the money by the next day (as long as its done before end of previous business day) and can normally send it out that day (or the next) and you should receive it the following day (if ur inside express post network). advantage of paypal is its instant and would mean if its done early enough in the day, that i can send it out that day

2 will be $94 (if sent to same address) or $97 with paypal

theoretically (and checking with a bench ecu):

red on, green/yellow off (doing yellow wire bypass in construction)

open calumsult, choose com4 and click open com port - yellow and green flash then go back off (getting ecu number)

switch to gauges screen, turn switch to on, and yellow flashes once, then green is on constantly

some more kits are available now, see the main post

my brothers gonna have a shot at constructing some, if that goes well then assembled ones will be available for those who dont wish to construct them themselves - no promises yet though (depends how long they take to construct etc). if that goes ahead, id guess around $70 for those

thanks! thats just what i always wanted :(

now if only i had a consult capable car! (im casually looking at the moment now for something cheap with a consult capable sr20det/rb20det so i can get some more exciting projects going)

I'd like a pre-constructed one ASAP please, when/if you can organise it. I am happy to pay a little extra if you can get it to me very soon :) Thanks.

Thanks for the extra bits, it now works perfectly.

:) cheers :D

ive got a new group buy thread for a limited number of assembled interfaces. at this stage i hope to have 10 available, but obviously demand for these vs kits will determine how many of the 20 (in which 10 are listed as up to number 32. here) will be available for each

ive added u to list in that thread, ill let u know when the first is available, should be sometime this week. if you want to make payment before its confirmed (one is ready, but needs cable done), then pm me with bank preference (if any) and ill pass on dd details.

my pre-made consult arrived today - not even 24 hours after ordering it. Amazing service, and an amazing product. Awesome work!!!! EVERYBODY NEEDS one of these!

sent a couple more out today, only a few left now.

note that after 33., there may be up to 2 more, but then thats it - ive got no plans at this stage of extending the group buy any further.

excellent to hear!

seems i underestimated everyone here, as i guessed that maybe 1/3 to 1/2 of the people who get a kit would have some issue with construction they wouldnt be able to figure out, but overall its gone quite well :D

    • It's funny, as Ive seen plenty of people use them in cheap builds on YT. And they actually go okay, even though a lot of other maxspeedingrods stuff is terrible. Those turbos seem reliable enough, the only part being, a good quality turbo that is "identical" to it, will out perform it day in and day out. In both a lower boost threshold, and the ability to flow more air at the same boost pressure. As a cheap cheap replacement, not a terrible choice. For cheap and shouldn't blow in a day, not terrible (like other eBay/Temu turbos) for low cost and still decent performance, that's where the question comes in to play from the results I've seen. I'd actually find it hilarious to buy one, and strap it to a paddock basher or some other cheap as POS originally NA car, and send it to the moon!
    • The maxpeedingrods turbo is cheap and bolts on to stock parts. I think you just need a bigger silicone coupler for the intake. Its a cheap china turbo, but it's been running on mine for almost 3 years at 16-19 psi.
    • What do they look like right after you've tried to start it with everything connected? Also post photos of what they actually look like.
    • Also wanted to say, my new spark plugs are blackened looks like it's very rich. I have splitfire coilpacks but stock coilpack loom and ignitor. I tried directly grounding the ignitor ground to body as well.
