Time for Hondata + GE8 Cams... so that you can get the High-low VTEC valves. Make sure you change the intake manifold to the GE8 one as well and use Hondata to tune it together, as apparently it can help with a torque dip at about 3000rpm when the high cams switch over.

i tot the FL CRZ is using hi-low vtec as opposed to pre-FL which uses 12v-16v vtec ... changing the GE8 Cams will yield decent improvement for FL CRZs ?

I believe Naka7a is having a pre-FL CRZ.... pls correct me if I am wrong. But you are correct, the FL CRZ is using the hi-low cams already, so no change in FL CRZ. Only pre-FL CRZ have this problem.

They expecting to get a powerful sport car instead of a sporty hybrid ... expectation not on par hence sell off ... plus this car not that practical ... only 2 seater .. even a Satria has better practicality with its seat-able rear seats ... rclxm9.gif

was travelling on the NSH last friday evening and there was a heavy downpour. I was travelling at 110kph on the overtaking lane and i hit some running water on the road. VSC light was blinking for about 5 secs but the car remained straight. question is, did my car aquaplaned due to the lousy bridgestone tires or because the car is too light? never had that problem in my nose heavy V6 running on michelins...

i think the cargo space for crz is pretty decent, and u can fold the seats. But they dont have to know that..lol

aquaplaned i think cuz VSC will activate when at least one wheel is out of place not in sync with the ground ... running to the water would render the ECU thinks that the wheel is not touching the ground. Possible for VSC to activate ..

plus ur V6 is heavier, the Z is lighter ... ground clearance is higher during aquaplanning i think ..
