Yes deNs is right only to diagnose......but with the right software can read & store ROM values . so one step closer to being able to reprogram blank ROMs one step at a time,,,,,maybe ? probably wont happen but hey a bit of fun could be useful for diagnosing a faulty AFM etc Ive got a stock K11E...

the little block box that goes between the consult plug & a laptop so the ECU can talk to the PC in a nutshell ;-) same as what nissan does when they "plug in " to the computer & charge you to read the codes Sorry I wasnt a bit clearer

LOL Child labour.........I cant even get my kids to pickup the towels they use in the bath room ! most of the parts are available from Jaycar , just the crystal seems to be an unusual value ? I might give it a go ( time permitting ) looks simple enough & " ECU talk " a free download should be...
