Message I tried two of the trackelectronic adapters, neither worked.

NikoZ had a setup to work with his Android App

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.grigon

He has an account on 3ZC, not sure about here. Haven't seen anything from him in some time.

Here is what I could find from his website, looks like he let it go...


What do I need to make it work?
You will need a Nissan Consult cable with a serial port and a bluetooth serial port adaptor.

Consult cable:
Cheap ones like the one pictured below costs about 15$ on ebay but you have to modify it.
Solder two wires according to this page: MOD

zcable

If you don't want to solder anything, buy this one. Choose "RS232 Nissan OBD (consult) data cable".

Bluetooth adaptor:
There are plenty of adaptors to choose from. Some are cheaper than others, just make sure that
it does not need an external power adaptor and that it can be powered from pin 9 on the serial port.
Also, it should handle up to 14-15V from the serial port, like the one below or you might fry your adaptor.
I highly recommend this one, because it is small and it has been tested by me :-)

- Will it work on my car?
This app has only been tested on 300ZX Z32, 200SX S13 and Skyline R32.
However, it should work on most Nissan vehicles from 1990 to 1998.

- Will it work on my Android device?
This app has only been tested on Samsung Galaxy S and HTC Desire.
However, it should work on most devices running Android 2.0 and above.

- Can I leave the bluetooth adaptor connected to the car, when I'm done?
Yes, you don't have to bring cables everytime you will use the app. Just leave it there, hidden behind the dash.
NikoZ remembers the adaptors address and reconnects when needed.

- Any updates scheduled?
It depends... If people show their support and buy my app, I will probably update it with more features.
