Feel like you shouldn't have to do that lol 😂

And yeah the R32 is my buddy Brads, he just got it straight from Japan. It's really nice

The two R35s were nice too; both making upwards of 600-1000 HP respectively.

And im not a Lambo guy but damn that thing sounded sick
The pro are much more aggressive im sure it plays alot into it.
If I understand correct its like getting the GSC "R" series cam instead of the S

Check base timing with a timing light. Lock the timing map into 5* advanced and check timing. Improperly made cams can throw off base timing. Which will make the car run poorly.


Not sure what is meant by an "old" version of SD. SD is largely unchanged since it came out on Tephra V5.

Another thing is how the shift points have completely switched.

Another shop in the area states that the Rom is tuned on old, outdated speed density. They seem to think that might be part of the issue.

Again, rather than have a bunch of people pick apart the car with what they think is wrong, I'm taking it back to stock.
Just have to find the time and patience to do it, I'm concerned that timing might be messed up so I may just do the whole timing belt change (about 20,000 miles too early) when removing the cams.
I think you need to goto an actual shop that will help you rather than go through all this headache

Im leaning toward a bad tps sensor or one that isnt adjusted ptoperly. What does the tps read at idle? Also the fuel trims are -12.5 which is tune related. There is probably morr then 1 issue here.

It doesnt matter if it is tuned on Newer 3D VE or older version. There are several evos which were running SD and ran great before 2011 when 3D VE was introduced.
IMO 3D is buggy ..
