For software have look here : ScanTool.net - Software - Browse scantools is a good free fault finding software.

The OBD cable has a different chipset for different cars, a basic OBD Cable for a Subaru will be able to give you most of the values and fault codes etc. The same cable should be able to cover other Jap manufactures between 2001-2006, check if you have particular manufactures in mind. The more expensive cables have adapter and types and so cover more cars. For a cable have a look on ebay or try here OBD2 | OBD | EOBD | Code Readers | PC interfaces | professional tools from Talk To My Car.
