    Oh, so you want to display engine data?

    I am using the Greddy informeter touch, good little unit and works on our cars, but it doesn't output data afaik.

    Another option is the HKS Camp 2 which is the older reader, then the best option, HKS ob-link for android. It is a bluetooth dongle.

    The HKS OB-link looks perfect. Do you know where these can be purchased from? Is there a generic / Chinese version available?

    The Carscope Android app looks like the type of display I was after:

    Diagnostic Port Adapter - Display App

    I have been using the obdII cable and software from nissandatascan, it works fine for my V35 and my wife's J31 maxima.

    I don't care what the interface looks like. It's there to do a job, not look pretty.

    By OBDII cable, are you referring to the Blazt style cable (with an OBD style port)?

    Regarding the interface, in my opinion, I need it to look a certain way to be functional. When I look at the Nissandatascan software, I can't see what I require while I'm driving -so it's not suitable for me.

    Shame they don't read all the ecu's though. The Chinese knockoff Consult 3 is the best reader for diagnosing I have found. It is quite complicated to navigate the software though.

    By Chinese knockoff, are you referring to this?

    It communicates via an RS232 port, which is very limited. I might try to connect this to USB (emulating a COM port.)

    Launch for me. CE5 based so a port of it could be done to windows easily enough.

    Are you referring to Launch X431?

    I'm still confused as to what protocol the 2003 v35 is using. Hopefully we can work out a solution so that the data can be displayed in an app like Torque. :yes:

    I know this has been touched on in some threads before, but I thought I'd post because I couldn't find the details I was after.

    What protocol does the '03 350gt skyline coupe use? Some threads say to use Consult 2 (which I thought was a specific cable/software), whereas others say JOBD (Japanese OBD) which isn't a protocol either..

    One thread says "a variant of J1850", another "SAE J1979"...

    If that is the case, then this reader should work:

    http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Mini-OBD2-OBDII-Bluetooth-Auto-Diagnostic-Scanner-Adapter-TORQUE-ANDROID-/190898350248

    Another forum says that it's a "mixture of CANbus and K-line protocols".

    (The G35 seems to use the standard OBD2 adapter with ISO15765-4 CAN protocol (which has many adapters available, like the generic ELMscan.))

    The Blitz cable that was mentioned, no longer seems to be available. http://www.blazt.biz/information/cars.php (they appear to have shutdown.. http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/topic/391191-whats-happened-to-blazt/)

    I'm after something like this: http://www.z1motorsports.com/product_info.php?products_id=2647

    What readers do people use for JDM cars? Given the interest in the import scene, I would have thought that there would be readers available.

    The Torque app only appears to be for OBD2: http://torque-bhp.com/

    Nissan Data Scan has an adapter and display app, however the display looks about as old as the protocols they are using... It could use an update!

    http://www.nissandatascan.com/

    This scanner seems to cover the JOBD & has been in the UK:

    http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/OBDMATE-OM500-JOBD-OBDII-EOBD-Code-Reader-Scanner-/380503945578

    However, I'm looking for something that I can interface with a tablet (via bluetooth or USB.)

    Thanks :yes:

    This type of thread really makes me weep for the future.

    Restrictions are put in place for a reason. It's worth thinking about why that is, rather than trying to find a way around it.

    Nightcrawler has a good point -it's very easy to forget how much we don't know. At a young age, under 21, our brains just aren't developed enough to comprehend the risks that we take. That's why we have the phrase "young and stupid". We were all that way once -some of us still are. :-)

    After you've been driving for long enough, you'll be thankful for these restrictions that are in place.

    Also, if you know as much about driving as your previous post suggested, then I'm sure you'll know why other P-players shouldn't be driving this type of car.

    Good luck with your decision!

    I know of two examples (however I stopped watching the market in June.) Both cars were in excellent condition with decent upgrades on the rims, exhaust, intake etc.)


    While I was looking there were a few stock examples listed for $12k.

    Maybe these two people got amazing bargains :yes: as there seems to be a lot of variance in sales figures. I guess it comes down to who is negotiating.. :whistling:

    just went and checked my garage....I definitely do not have a 2004 70th anniversary black V35 coupe......apparently unlike the majority....lol

    (although I did have one, 115K klms, factory wheels, no bodykit, which I sold for $19500 no rego but RWC about 4 months back - so this does seem like a good price to me)

    You sold your coupe for ~$20k with high kms?

    DAMN! I've seen a few series 1 coupes (non-anniversary models), with premium interiors & BOSE sound systems, sell for < $10k with ave. kms (~70-80K kms.)

    V35 Questions

    and also what are the differances between the ones badge infinty and the ones badges skyline?

    These cars were sold as 'Infiniti' in North America, similar to how Honda rebadge as Acura.

    It's unlikely that someone has imported their car from there & converted it to RHD.

    Some people prefer to rebadge to the Infiniti logo. Many people don't see the point in this (as the v35 is already an exotic import) - however some people prefer this though & others like to debadge.This is off topic though.

    If you want to know the difference in parts between the Infiniti G35 & Skyline 350GT there are a few threads (either here or on G35 driver.)
