HR-32 Posted February 17, 2006 Share Posted February 17, 2006 Hey guys My car has been playing up for a couple of days now, took it for a service to Adam's Auto Centre at Woodcroft. Service and inspection $423, oil,filters,plugs and tune. Scantool says its the afm Just wondering if there is still a group buy for this? I know Cubes you were doing 1? Anyone got a spare 1 lying around so I could buy/borrow it for the cruise? Cant get a hold of 1 until next week??

Tangles Posted February 17, 2006 Share Posted February 17, 2006 Does the rb25 slot straight into rb20 type?if so, how much you want for it? i'm in woodcroft! <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Thats something Im not sure about, at all... sorry. To be honest, Id rather not 'sell' the unit in case I ever get defected for my Z32 unit. Im hoarding my spare parts for "just in case". But more than welcome to 'borrow' it mate, to help you out for a few weeks, no problems there. If the RB25 unit fits, then so would a Z32 afm? That being said, the Z32 is obviously the best choice for further tuning mods, I was near maxing out my RB25afm at only 140Awkw (was 4.95V, max is 5.15V?). The Z32 afm lets you tune the beast just that little bit more lol! Now Im safely at 160Awkw with plenty of scope for more tuning when I (can afford to!) add on the hiflow turb'. Maybe send an email about RB20's running a Rb25/Z32 afm, to Sydneykid, Cubes, Paul33, or R31Nismoid, or someone who knows their stuff?

Tangles Posted February 17, 2006 Share Posted February 17, 2006 Checked out the RB20 turbo sticky thread (ie dynographs etc) in the forced induction area - to get good power they're all using Z32 AFMs, or a VQ45 afm. So if you want to borrow my RB25 unit, no worries, but better off purchasing a Z32 unit in the future....... plus a massive twin turbo setup, etc etc lol!

9krpm Posted February 17, 2006 Share Posted February 17, 2006 hey how much do you want for the Z32's and clips im very keen <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I've been told that I probably can sell them for $300 each as these comes with harness and flanges for easy bolt on. For you I can do $250 each pickup. Let me know, they just came off the car yesterday. Car had 380rwkw and idled well with these on so there is defitely no problem at all ....or money back. They are at Willall racing atm. I'll be there after 1pm today. So let me know before they collect dust.

Tangles Posted February 17, 2006 Share Posted February 17, 2006 I paid $250 for my Z32 afm, so thats definately the going rate.... well worth the dollars, unless youve got ~$450 to spend on a new item.

savage GTR Posted February 19, 2006 Share Posted February 19, 2006 hey adam, my r32gtr was playing up since last sat[11 feb] and i took it in to steve at manta racing on thursday[16feb] he and peter worked on it {retune} cleaned the sensor in the afm which unfortunately didnt work {might for you} and found that he could only get one from sydney. It got here friday and after another quick tune had me on the road again by firday afternoon. great guy{steve} and doesnt cost the earth in labour. look him up in the pages. what better than having a guy{steve} that tunes bently turbos etc and peter hall {had a lambo and gt3 porshe waiting for service} working on your car for a good price! lots of other workshops charge the earth when they hear GTR!!

savage GTR Posted February 19, 2006 Share Posted February 19, 2006 o by the way somehow they {sydney} sent down a brand new one and only charged for a second hand one. finally some luck going my way Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/106235-afm-is-on-the-blink/#findComment-1963208 Share on other sites More sharing options...
HR-32 Posted February 19, 2006 Author Share Posted February 19, 2006 Yeah thanks bwilkeson for the lend of your afm! Greatly appreciated, mine didn't start playing up until I was 2 streets away from home after the cruise. I think I will try to hook yours up until I can get (afford) one. I cleaned mine about 3 days ago and no problems until today, I guess its a short term solution.

He paid extra for the adaptors/flanges. I could not throw in the harness because Peter Hall left that on my car. The first $450 offer will have both my Z32 and 2 adaptors.

GTSTD1 Posted March 3, 2006 Share Posted March 3, 2006 (edited) Tangles. There is no obvious way you'd be defected for a Z32 AFM. Most coppers wouldn't know what an AFM is.

Tangles Posted March 6, 2006 Share Posted March 6, 2006 (edited) Tangles. There is no obvious way you'd be defected for a Z32 AFM. Most coppers wouldn't know what an AFM is. The colours are different.... Z32 is 'pink' and Rb25 is 'green', if theyve defected ppl before, then they'll know what they are looking for. But it aint just the afm, its all the ecu add-ons etc Ive got that are pretty easy to spot, so if I ever need to go to Regency I might as well hoard my spares. Not all oinkers are dumbarses.

Tangles Posted March 7, 2006 Share Posted March 7, 2006 My Z32 has a Orange Sticker! I think thats right - I was guessing.. pink/orange, just a matter of interpretation really (plus I'll just say I was clourblinded the last time I looked at it - must have been the wife mucking around again) Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/106235-afm-is-on-the-blink/#findComment-2000408 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cubes Posted March 7, 2006 Share Posted March 7, 2006 R33 S1 afm's (green sticker 4pin) are the same as the r32 rb20det afm. R33 S1 afm's (pink sticker 3pin) obviously don't plug in. Z32's as stated are orange, I'm waiting for bosch, they said they will have the numbers I require by may due to an problems they had with manufacturing that threw backorders through the roof.
