Link G4 and RPC cable compatibility

WhiteAfrikanz · Post by **WhiteAfrikanz** » Thu Mar 02, 2017 6:38 pm

Hey guys I am looking to purchase RCP for my RB25 S13 that I am running Link G4 on. The cable from the ECU has a connector I am not familar with but goes to a USB, I am wondering the best way to connect to RCP. I am thinking a USB to RJ45 adapter then a male/male rj45 cable into the RCP. If anyone else has connected to LINKG4 please chime in. Thanks!

Ive attached a picture of the tuning cable that attaches to the female pigtail that is attached to the ECU.

Hi,

I don't know about that cable from Link, sorry. However, we do know the connection from the Link is via CAN bus; I would recommend checking their documentation where the CAN bus connections are and then you can connect those to the equivalent CAN High and CAN low of RaceCapture.

Thanks!

Hey Brent,

Thank you for your Help!

So I got this pinout and I know which pins are CAN

I can get a connector that attaches to the ecu and has flying leads. Would I be best off using that and wiring it into an RJ45 pigtail with corresponding flying leads?

Great! Yes, I would use that cable and splice it with a standard RJ45 ethernet cable as we suggest in our wiki.
