I bought a Nissan Consult device to plug it in to the connectors and a serial db9 to USB wire to connect it to the laptop and I will be using the Nissan ConZult program. Does anyone know about this stuff, if it's good or is tehre something better. Is it accurate?

Well my laptop doesn't have serial port. I bought an adapter from ebay for a dollar. rs232 serial to usb2. I got the Nissan Consult from ebay as well. It was like 20 bucks. The Cable i got for a dollar needs drivers. The only drivers they have online (because it doesn't come with them for a dollar) are windows XP and my laptop is windows 7. I found drivers that match up but dont work for some reason. Any suggestions anyone...

I'm not sure where you can buy the true Nissan Consult, but the CONZULT is really good.

or this one is good as well

I use OBDScantech which is pretty close to BLAZT and it was free on the net but now the link is dead. It has lots of good active tests to check pretty much all components as well as change parameters momentarily.

I use a generic radioshack db9 to usb cable to connect to megasquirt, I had to install drivers on my oldl laptop but my new laptop with vista had a generic odriver that worked and my bud just did the same deal with windows 7, you might want to have a look at your computer

The db9 to usb is like 35 dollars that i dont have. I got the drivers from the seller on ebay. it works great now! I installed the driver and now i had to disable certificate something something... The Free version of ConZult only gives u a few things to work with? and the idle adjustment doesn't work. and the MPH days im going 70 when in reality im going 40

Nprobe (no longer available) Blazt next but the best is Nistune.. It has all the sensor checks plus injector balance, codes, etc. Click on my website if you want to see what it looks like
