Oh.

While I do have access to the files for use, I do not own them and cannot release them.

Sorry.

I own the cfd files and we will not release them. Too much money tied into it.

My diffuser is near identical(had to make one because of exhaust and trd bumper). It helped having access to a metal shop with everything i needed. I picked up 7kph on average on the strait at fuji speedway. I also took the 100r 10kph faster consistently. This resulted in a 3 second time drop. Only part of that that is realy scientifc is the strait, as i could of just drove better everywhere else.

Oh well i guess i was wrong lol. I have j2 quad tip exhaust that comes in from the side so that would have had to been modified. By looking at the pics the side mounting screws have no where to attach to. Maybe they cut off more material when mounting my trd kit?

Hmmm who knows. Shipping to Japan would've been expensive though, so it's not necessarily a bad move.

Cool, can't wait for the update.

On a related note, do you expect the original strand design to be better than the alternate version?
