Perhaps a search would have been easier?

Yes, the Nissan replacement ones are shite, grab an aftermarket one as I don't sell them anymore.

Thanks man, just thinking is it ok to get aftermarket one which could directly replace the OEM one? It looks same as OEM one but is it more stronger??

Even if it is the same life they are about 1/4 the price and work fine.

That's true mate. But I want to know if they are stronger than OEM one. I found some AFM on eBay approx $60, but no idea about the quality. Actually I could get cheap 2nd hand OEM one from Japan. So if they is no difference between eBay aftermarket AFM and OEM AFM, I would like to grab OEM one. Any suggestion??

Why buy a second hand one? Search the forum and you will see they are terribly unreliable. As scotty said just buy the new after market ones. No they probably aren't any better, but they are newer and will have more chance of lasting then a crappy second hand one

just got brand new aftermarket 5PIN AFM from ebay. then I did throttle relearn. now the idle rev is 650-700rpm, AFM voltage is about 1.35v-1.37v at idle.

some question here:

1. I feel the car is harder to start engine compare with OEM AFM, whatever the car is cold or warm

2. there is long delay when rev up from idle. it means when you press acc pedal from idle, the OEM boost gauge will go up to about 0PSI first, then rev will go up. also this feeling is compared with OEM AFM.

any suggestion? thanks guys.

    • Maybe I used the wrong sandwich plate as well. Used one piece instead of two piece.  
    • Y'know what, after reading a topic on a 360kw build using a nistune (who ended up going LINK), im now considering a LINK over a nistune. The engine protection alone would probably be worth it. And id like to learn to tune so would be nice to have that safe guard. Which means i probably wont need a boost controller then, or the R35 MAF.  Becoming a bit of a blog now but oh wells. As mentioned previously, the goal is around 300kw, for a daily driver. Will be looking at fitting a highflow turbo or similar (something that doesnt require downpipes, manifolds etc to be changed out) when the current stock gives out or the money for it is there. 
    • Thanks guys. Are you meant to tighten the converter bolts through the starter motor hole? Think my plate between gearbox and engine is one piece. Im heading up there tomorrow.
    • Picked my tailshaft up yesterday arv!! Test fit it and because they've gone to a ford centre bearing and CV I had to modify the mounting bracket a little bit. 5mm of each side and she went up into position and fits well. It has a 1350 uni and flange on the gearbox end so it should be plenty strong!  Got stuck in this morning and started on the wiring mess. Cut out all the wires not required that go to the body connector and cut the engine harness out. Need to go through and work out which ones I need to keep and rewire into the new ecu. Should save a small amount of weight as well. I'd love to get in and rip the dash and everything out to completely remove wiring but cbf.  Next up was the power harness for alternator, starter etc. It has a few connectors from factory that run out of it. Cut it all apart and removed what was no longer required and put some new corro and taped it all back up and bolted it all back into place.  After that I worked out where I can mount the new flex sensor. Found a couple of factory bolt holes and drilled a new hole on the bracket to suit. Need to go get a few fittings and adapters tomorrow so I can keep going.   
    • Nah, im after the more newer looking, one with the OLED display
