    ECUTalk Consult LCD V2 Display

    Is anyone using one of these displays they apparently plug into the ecu, petrol EFI only I think?. They can display info like temps, fuel lph, and a lot of other things. The display looks a bit small and crowded need good eyes I think....but it could be a useful tool............

    I have the ecu consult unit that plugs into the laptop, but considered one of these at the time also - as you say, a bit hard on the eyes but of definite value.

    Nice to see all the info but you have to worry about runnin off the road while you purroozing your purramitters. Still there might be something better out there. I have done the roadmiles and worked out what speed to sit on to get the best mileage/economy ..............this gadget can tell you at a glance, Ill ask the passenger to read it for me......too small for me

    Hearing you mate ... with a decent sized touch screen and ability to make changes on the fly (as it were), they would be awesome ... the only thing I don't like about my unit is (for example) I can make changes to the timing curve under a test mode, but can't save them on the ecu once the best compromise is done ... maybe newer ecu's let that happen (mines 1992).

    I run the same as Scottie, I would not buy one of those, nothing wrong with them just personal choice.....yes they are small and a bit crowded.

    When money permits I will be running my software through a small laptop or touchscreen that is permanently mounted in the vehicle.

    Matt ( Nissan Kid ) has a good setup in his GQ, if you trol through his members ride thread you will eventually find it *L* not sure if he runs the ECU software.

    Chaz, also has done a excellent job on a customized computer http://www.chaz.yellowfoot.org/My%20In%20Car%20PC.htm

    he runs NISTune for OBD monitoring but he has a GU, I'm a GQ man but I would love 2 have a GU dash as the display is setup higher.

    I got my ECU consult lead from DinoDirect http://www.dinodirect.com/nissan-con...rency-AUD.html

    You may also need 2 buy a RS232 to USB Converter Adapter Cable http://www.dinodirect.com/RS232-to-U...e.html?cur=AUD

    I bought a more expensive one elsewhere but I'm sure there cable will be fine

    More info on ECU diagnostics can be found here

    Hi Todd, I checked out Matts GQ settup hes done a top job, overhead con as well.............excellent.
    Now Chaz in the GU that dash looks like the bees knees......like you I have a GQ so I have to work with what I have.
    There are slide out screens for car dvd players but not touch screen unless I missed that. I am often window shopping on EBAY I shall have a look.
