Hi, I had my GT-R in for its initial 2000km POS at the Dealer i purchased the car from, I asked them as part of the service if they check for any Software /Firmware updates on the Car's computers/ecu's etc.. The GT-R mechanic told me they have never done any Software updates since he has been servicing GT-R, which i thought sounded a little strange given updates applied on previous cars that i have owned in the last 10 years.

Does Nissan not release new SW Updates on the R35 ?

They don't even make Satnav map updates for the GTR since 2010, so there's no chance of this ever happening

+1 to Domino, grab a Cobb AP but kiss your Warranty good buy the moment you flash anything :(

Guys, thanks for the confirmation, given the amount of electronics in this car, amazing they havent updated the software / firmware as ongoing maintenance. Wardski, funny you mentioned about GPS updates, I asked the Dealer to check with Nissan Australia, answer back : " Nissan does not have any GPS updates available for my Car" . I asked two additional questions : 1. Does Nissan Aust. ever intend to provide GPS Map updates for the GT-R and 2. What is the level of the Map Updates for newly delivered 2013 GT-R's.. (are they using the same 2010 Maps?)

Mike..

A mate of mine with a 2012 has the exact same map version as my 2010... so.. All the ADM's have the same maps - I would even bet the 2013 as well. The last time that I asked my dealer which was September last year, the response was:

Hi Ward,

Regarding the Navteq maps, I have forwarded your request through to Nissan Customer Assistance as I have no current information available at present. At last enquiry NMC were trying to put a package together with there suppliers.

Regards,

Guys, a coupe of updates on the question of GPS MAP updates on our GT-R's. Dealer confirmed 1. Nissan Aust has told them they are soon to announce a MAP update for previous GT-R Models (Post April), 2. The Dealer confirmed the MAP version of their MY13 GT-R on their Showroom Floor is Map Version 11-12.. (My Sept 11 Build GT-R is Map Version 10-11) Lets hope that Nissan Delivers on this.. Mike..

      Hello! I'm new here, I have an R33 GTST that is currently being finished up! Last year was pretty rough, blew two stock turbos so I decided to build the car. Has been down since November, but I get it back next weekend!

      Hello, I believe my car was imported to America in the 2000s by Kaizo Industries. Would anyone be able to help me find more info on them? I've only found all the basic stuff like that paul walker bnr34, them being shutdown by feds, just stuff like that. Any help would be much appreciated, thanks!

      HKS Vcam Step Pro Issues

      By believer · Posted

      I am using Motec M150.  I am not working on the car myself actually.  My workshop is giving all these info, they are quite reputable in the industry and are very familiar with Motec and RBs and have done a few big setups with VCam and single turbo on RBs.  In fact, they built and tuned my engine from day one.  But they are stumped with my engine at the moment and cannot work out how come the compression is so low with the VCam. They told me that they have now swapped in some Kelford cams (without the VCam) and can achieve around 130psi compression and the low end torque is better, but now the engine is doughy as.  It boosts and peaks at more than 1000rpm slower, with twin HKS GTIII RS, it doesn't get full boost until over 5000rpm. I have always thought the VCam was a bit disappointing at the low rpm. To a point I had to ride the clutch a fair bit to get up a small hill from stand still.  That was when I had a clutch.  Now changing to a 8HP, I don't have that luxury and this problem has become a major issue. I am beginning to think the VCam never work since the day it was installed.  Maybe it was just sitting at the most advanced point, that is why it went good at top end but very ordinary at the bottom.  Therefore, with the help of the Holinger 6 speed and paddle shift, as long as it was moving, it drove pretty good.

      yeah, there's a country that recently started importing Skylines, I blame them.

      I don't have a printer, but could at least attempt to make a printable model.
