Looking for around 320 - 330rwhp, and currently have the standard RB25DET AFM. Just wondering whether I am going to need to upgrade to the Z32 afm. Don't want to waste $300+ if i don't need to.

So the Z32 afm is a 'higher resolution' meter. Does this just mean that it will be able to read at a higher airflow than the standard afm, or also allows for a more precise tune at all rpm?

Heard that the RB25 afm's are good for ~ 250rwkw / 340rwhp.

Any experiences, opinions, and advice is appreciated. :P

the rb25 afm begins maxing out around 190rwkw ish and keeps going until about 250rwkw. mine is maxing out around 6000rpm ish which is fine. its only a problem when it begins maxing out at like 3500rpm ish as from then onwards the load axis never increases any more so you loose some tuning accuracy.

note: this is how a map sensor car works so its OK and won't blow up or go bang. 250rwkw is fine on the stock airflow meter but it may feel a little better with a z32 as it will keep showing increasing airflow on the load axis

      Questions on potential new purchase

      By Murray_Calavera · Posted

      Am I correct in assuming that the R35's are getting the classic skyline haircut off the odometer?  Quick search on carsales, there are 33 08 and 09 GTR's for sale, only 2 of them have more then 100,000km's on them (116,075 and 110,000 respectively).  And somehow there are about 25 for sale with around 60,000kms? Looks like the classic skyline haircut to me =/

      Blue slip

      @Stringycheese  Have you only gone to the one blue slip workshop?  There will be a heap of them where ever you live, good odds that the next place you go to will pass the car.  Unfortunately (or fortunately?) every blue slip / engineering workshop will be different and will be happy passing or failing different things - despite working from the same set of rules. It's kinda like 2 lawyers arguing over a piece of legislation, each saying their interpretation is correct. Might seem strange that this happens when it comes to getting a modified car passed, but this is very much a thing. A big part of the game is finding an engineer / workshop that is on the same page as you.

      Bah. I daily mine. ~60km per work day, 10-12 thousand km per year. What's the point of having a dirty old Datto and leaving it in the shed. It needs to be driven and enjoyed while the govco allows us to do so. It will only be a few years before we're forbidden to even start up internal combustion engines.

      Judging by that spring perch and the normal looking spring on it - not a coilover. Well.... it is a coilover, just a stock format coilover, rather than what everyone calls a coilover.

      Yes it is. We get stock from Nismo directly. I'm happy to take photos/video of it as proof before I ship it with timestamps or whathaveyou.
