Torque (the app)

Jsolo · 07-03-2015, 11:50 PM

Sorry to bump an old thread, how are you getting the cooling fan activation to work?

sungear · 04-10-2016, 12:49 AM

Just got the OBDLink MX, Torque, and the Nissan plugin for torque and I'm loving it! Thanks to all the previous posters for the great tips and info!

flashgordon · 05-07-2016, 11:11 AM

I just installed Torque pro with Nissan Advanced EX with the OBDLink Interface.

My ECU was e-tuned with UPrev with target and logged values about 12.6 - 14.7 AFR

Torque is logging 8.0 - 9.5 AFR !

What's happens?

Just started getting into this. Have an OBDLink MX and Torque. Is the Advanced EX plugin useful on the Z?

^you get engine oil temp reading.

Uxi · 08-30-2016, 11:55 AM

Hmm... and we already have a gauge for that. Not sure that's worth another $5... No 'camshaft angle' or 'cruise control speed?"

Was hoping tire pressure would be in there, somewhere at least.

I took a quick look at the Torque web site. If you know the address/PID of the variable, it looks like Torque will let you look at just about anything. https://torque-bhp.com/forums/?wpfor...topic&t=4532.0 shows how to convert from ECUese to human-readable form.

I have the paid version and the exnissan feature it is amazing have it on my tablet on the cubby box for constant readings recently did my ecutek tunning and it is extremely accurate

Whats better out of using kiwi 3 or torque pro?

Need to be able to display engine and trans oil temp, pressure, and boost gauge?

I don't know if there is a trans oil temp sensor that you can access.

The OBDLink MX made my car trip out. All the lights on the dash were on, warnings, etc until I shut off and then pulled the MX and restarted. Crazy. Like getting the data on the phone, etc but that no other effect but made me a bit paranoid.

I would be interested if anyone is using one of the phone HUD things. Many look cheap but seems a good way to get some of this data without a crazy setup (though sort of interested in that, too).

Mine makes the car trip out like 10% of the time. Glad I'm not alone lol

I am running the LX and have had no issues =)

Im thinking of going to torque app route to save on costs from new gauges/sensors, but not sure if it is critical to use standalone gauges instead.

Things I am looking at reading:
Boost
Oil Temp/pressure
Trans oil temp
Wideband

I would save alot of cash if I can safely rely on these apps instead.

You can get Wideband for each bank, and, based on above posts, oil temp. I suppose it might be possible if you upgrade the MAP sensor to do speed density tuning to get Boost through it, though no one has reported that bonus feature. Oil pressure is impossible because the car lacks the proper sensor so the data doesn't exist. No idea on trans temp.

If you do decide to get some of your data through this method, buy a nice high speed adapter and not a cheap one. I had a cheap one at first.. worked great for clearing codes, etc... but for datalogging it was WAY too slow. My current OBDLink LX feels fast enough for this type of usage.

.

But if we add a oil pressure sensor to the car, can Torque app pick that up and display it, even though the car doesnt originally have an oil pressure sensor?

Not to my knowledge... unless it has some way to interface with external sensors.
