I want : "just to have to have, some diagnostics about the car."
yooh , and a thousands of others.
now that i know what you want and where you are......
ok, good.
There are no cheap scan tools for suzuki's that use ALDL. 89-95 usa. and all up to 2001 EU. (europe was slow to catch on to OBD2 , a standard) [ except used Tech1 factory scan tools selling used for $500]
facts:
1:cars that are OBD1 level , are all incompatible between each manufacture of car.
each car company designed an interface , diff, than an other. ( no standards in place at that time)
2: Suzuki never released the protocol for there cars (pre 96 usa/canada, pre 2001 EU)
i have taken the pains of calling every scan tool ww and asked for a tool for these old cars. (ignore the advertising hype, read the fine print) Each said, no suzuki support. , so does the books that come with.
on the old cars. (old = obd1)
you have only 2 choices.
1: read the blink codes.
2: wait for Rhinoman to finish a working software logger. ( most does work)
But.....
Rhinoman has the communications working, I do too, due to his genious.
but we only need to discover a few more parameters and then finish the software.
the hardware is less than $50 (Rs232 to TTL232 , bidirectional serial adaptor, ALDL)

last photo is the adaptor. Nothing fancy or expensive.
the baud (bit rate)
the baud is 15625 ( the first motorola processor ran at 1,000,000 hertz and the only divide choice (rational) was 64 in the scaler section, 1m div by 64 = 15625
all the facts on this are on my page. and rhinomans.
so bingo, your not the only on wanting to log data.
there is no guarantee that this protocol as discovered, will work from 89-2001 in EU zuzuki's but it does work on a 91 here and does on Rhinomans cars. ( no published spec. makes this hard ,huh?)
his web site is linked.

cheers.
Is this a ALDL connector?
