    There are some basic guides for other cars but nothing for the Nissan stuff yet. I have the files and have looked thru them. If you've tuned a car before it should be pretty obvious where to start

    I've tuned by 2015 Corvette and have a good understanding of tuning. I've read somewhere the Nissan 350Z was different in several ways from GM Gen V tuning.

    Yes, the timing tables appear to be VERY different than GM stuff. But there isnt much to the Z's tune file vs how much is in a LS/LT tune

    Im new to this, I own a Q50 2014 3.7 and I would love to learn more.
    FIRST GOAL: Loud Crack & pops while downshifting etc
    I heard its pretty simple once you know which parameters to edit, but theres not much information about VQ engines with HP tuner.
    Any input is welcome or useful links
