Hey guys, I drive a 2003 touring, and I've been wanting to get something going with one of those Bluetooth obd adapters, but nothing I've found works. As far as I can tell there isn't any that will work with it, But I figured id do a post just to be certain.

Alternatively, is there some way to get around it? Anything shy of actually replacing the computer anyway haha.

Cheers guys

I managed to find something that works!

nissandatascan(dot)com (I don't have enough posts for links yet haha

The user interface is a little clunky, but it works pretty well so I'm happy! With my model, the second type is the one that works. I imagine most 350z's will use that one too

Enjoy your car. Its great that these cars are so affordable. They are really good value for the money

If it's an NZ new model then there isn't anything you can do but if it is a Jap import then you should be ok.
In that you haven't found one that works suggests that it is an NZ model - NZ did not require OBDII compliance until 2006 - see post ZClub post on OBDII not reporting

Ive just bought one on trademe, I’ll let you know how it goes

Years ago I bought a Bluetooth ELM 327 OBDII interface.
It didn't work on 2002 Japanese import 350Z Track (Fairlady)
But it worked fine in a 2010 Suzuki Swift.
My limited research indicated the Japanese used a different code/interface, which was almost impossible to find and/or expensive.
I started looking into JOBD2 but didn't get anywhere.
I just gave up.
