OK so a while back, i started playing around with the settings in Nissan Datascan

Then it stopped showing the sensors, despite everything else working.. wasn't sure what caused this so tried playing around with the settings

i accidentally changed to COM port to 4, and now when i tart it up, it says "runtime error 8002: wrong port"

and then it closes down so i can't change back to COM port 1 !!!

i tried uninstallingthe program, resetting, then re-installing, but it retains the old settings rather than reverting to default settings!

can anyone help me??

cheers,

Warren

The port selection might be stored in the registry of your computer. An uninstall should clear the setting but may not. You could try running regedit and have a look around for anything that resembles settings for the Datascan software, but be vary cafefull not to F*ck with anything not related with the nissan stuff or you could screw your computer.

Alternatively the port setting might be stored in a .INI file some where on your HD. I have never used the software so dont really know for sure, but I write software for a living and those two places are where I would store such a setting. maybe searching for Datascan.ini or nissan.ini might yeld some results. Also have a look in "program files" for the install directory, there might be a datafile in there with the setting.

just guessing though, as I said I dont know anything about the Datascan software...

i understand the Datascan is on your laptop mate! :) and was just trouble shooting a bit !

Logicly i was thinking you may have altered a bios setting in the Actual Nissan ECU if it was possible. Maybe its not? as i am just guessing like GunMetalR33 stated.

laptop....

GunmetalR33 gave good advice for program trace removal . I will add that sometimes it may be called another name in the program files other than Datascan, example "NISSAN" mo.

use search registry for "Datascan" and install files by date if you get what i mean

*.ini , *.bat "*" being datascan related.

If your on Xp system restore.

Is there a free download ,Support, FAQ of it somewhere so i can work out how to reset it for you ?

oh hang on here it is!

Read the SUPPORT SECTION it explains it perfectly

Update after install

Path to program files > C:\Program Files\Nissan Data Scan

registry serch > from commandline > run > regedit > Edit > Find > Datascan > remove values

FROM the WEBSITE

1. When I start the NDS software I get an error message and the application shuts down.

You have probably entered a wrong COM port number and ticked the "Auto connect to ECU" option. To fix the problem you will need to reset the registry settings.

* Go to start->Run and type regedit.

* Go to "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\VB and VBA Program Settings\NDataScan" and delete the whole NDataScan entry.

* Close the Registry Editor and try running the software again. It will save the default settings to the registry file.

Don't tick the "Auto connect to ECU" option until you successfully establish a connection.

Warning: Take note of your Activation Key, you will need to re-enter it to activate the software.

2. When I click the Connect button I get an error message and the application shuts down.

You have probably entered an invalid COM port number. Try changing the "Port" setting in "Communication" to a port that you know exists.

i cant get past the key at the moment so thats as far as i go :woot:

      Forced Performance Hta Turbos

      Yeah based on old XRC5964S specs, it looks to be roughly GTX3576R sized? But this 5964S compressor will flow 90lb airflow somewhat similar to the compressors in both the GTX3584RS or G35-1050.. I fully expected the 0.64 rear A/R to choke up top - seems way too small from typical convention - but these are seemingly beneficial over the prior 0.82 results.. Be interesting to see if he comments on the EFR question in that thread - he mentioned in a prior video that BW EFR's were the "cats pajamas 10 years ago", but by the sounds of things all his kits have been using Xona for quite a while now.

      Yeah it’s still got the oem manual gearbox and clutch, only kinda mods are a blow off valve, coil overs, and a aftermarket intercooler. Also had it for about 2 months now with a lovely midnight purple paint on it.

      Yeeeppp, been following a lot of the testing on the latest Xona stuff and there are some mental results.  He also went over 1000hp @ 4 hubs on his Mainline with a XRE6364S (63mm) which was also well into the 20psi range before 4000rpm on a 2.5. Crazy stuff. Fwiw the XRE5964S is basically the modern equivalent of their old HTA3582 - would drive nicely enough on an RB25 or 26, but proven capable of a huge amount of power if you want to spicy with rpm tho even at sane boost levels will make stout numbers

      R33 GTST Axles

      By tidi0x · Posted

      The axels in my R33 seem tired, and have a bit of play in them. I cannot find any new of course, not interested in buying used, but I am looking to see if anyone can identify some cross compatible axles. In the states I have seen suggested for S chassis the J30 axles, however for the skyline (as best I can tell) the lengths are about an inch off (2.5cm) on both sides. R33 my measure L 22" R 24.5" GPT L 22.5" 24.25" J30 L 23.5" 25.5"  so shaft length is probably an inch wider. Not sure if someone has another still remanufactured option besides the J30. I figured worst case I can buy a pair tear them down and swap the center shaft. My other option was reaching out to GSP to see if they cannot piece together a set, since the axle stubs are still manufactured, I wouldn't think it be that hard to find a shaft or make a shaft work.

      Potentially some interesting data for some of you here; Hank Iroz from Iroz Motorsport testing a new Xona Rotor 5964S on a Audi RS3 2.5L DAZA motor. https://facebook.com/share/p/14EU18MyDqZ/ Cliff Notes: Turbo has the new Xona XRE compressor aero with an X4C compressor cover, reportedly 0.64 rear housing. 900whp (670kw) @ 37psi, 170k shaft speed, motor is making 2bar (29psi) boost by roughly 3800rpm, 500lbft (670nm) torque by 3500rpm. They overlaid a stock RS3 on USA 91 fuel (red), and a "Stage 2" RS3 on E85 (yellow), and this 5964S (blue) - the 5964S isn't losing any ground to either. Apparently out-flowing their prior tests with a Xona 8264S (green), and this 5964S (white) also has a smaller A/R than that did.
