Yes you can but you will need to have it followed up with a quick check up on the dyno...

It should not change much but it will though the current tune out a little bit and its always best to visit the dyno after you touch anything as important as a AFM.

I bought a z32 with the tomei adapter plug and it looks a bit different.

I have 4 wires

Black with white trace

black

White

Brown

I have a series II R33, would be good to have colours to match from and to.

The car is in the workshop so i cant look at the stock one atm.

But i was going to be charged $300 to fit the AFM and new injectors which I think is a bit steep.

Plus more $ for the tune

If you put the plug into the afm and look at it the same as the picture below, you will have the same outputs from the Z32 just the wire colours will be different...

So if the black with white trace is in position (2) then sustitue it for orange with black trace for this installation...

Does this make sence??? If not put the plug into the AFM and take a close up photo and post it here...

Yep thanks... I just noticed the little letters on the plug and the little letters, ABCD etc in your pic.

My plug is different to the one in your tute, but the wires wil be in the same order, I think i got the Tomei plug, its "squarer" with different wires.

R34 GTT uses the 3 wire AFM same as Series 2 R33 and the guide is the same...

(Please correct me if im wrong, but thats what ive seen on the R34's ive worked on)

and yeah you need to buy the plug with the AMF as the stock plugs are as usless as a cardboard wetsuit...

Umm I assume the R34 is similar to the S2 R33? As my AFM is kaput, its practically undrivable atm I need to replace the AFM

If I attach a new z32 and do the soldering will the car be drivable at least?, or that the remap would be a critical factor to make it work.

Ive got a PFC btw.

Acoustik,

if you need an AFM for a R34 RD25DET, try looking for the Maxima VQ30DE AFM. It's the same. I found this out the hard way! :D

edit: just found the tute by cubes (maybe add it to the members list of tute threads?)

im searching for a install of a z32 into a r32.

is it right that r32 wiring will be the same as the r33s1 wiring in this tute, cause i believe r33s1 afm is the same as a r32???

:)

Hi Paul, how confident are you in the plug wiring for the RB20DET AFM on your web site?

RB20 AFM Nissan Skyline R32

Wire A - Not Connected

Wire B - Signal

Wire C - 12v Ground

Wire D - Signal Ground

Wire E - 12v Power

Mine, a 1990 R32GTST, seems to be;

Wire A - Not Connected

Wire B - Signal Ground = black

Wire C - 12v Ground = black

Wire D - Signal = white

Wire E - 12v Power = black with white stripe

Cheers

Gary

I have this issue, my R34 has 3 wires, but apparantly the adapter plugs for the Z32 (which i was told by the person i bought it from on the SAU forums that it was suited for the R34 RE25DET Neo engine, which is what i have), but his AFM didn't come with a plug because his tuner lost it, so i went to an auto elec and they said the plug for my Z32 AFM is 6 pin with 4 wires.

Have i got the wrong AFM?

Is there a different plug?

Is there a work around?

Cheers,

Matt

In reply to the above, i had an auto elec fit mine, he just earthed the 4th wire :D

I have a PFC, even with the self learn process it still does not allow the car to run properly, when you install one of these, make sure you just splice off the existing wire and leave the existing plug intact incase you need to go back to stock.

I gaurantee you will need to get the car tuned afterwards, it simply doesn't run properly unless it gets the tune :blink:

Thanks mate, might get the tuner to fit and map my pfc at the same time.

      Stagea Front CV Axle Question

      By soviet_merlin · Posted

      Man, different parts but the same numbers is terrible @dbm7! And it doesn't help that most online shops don't list the part numbers at all. They just give a list of compatible models...

      Slow when hot could also be because its getting more dynamic compression, OR things are getting a bit tighter once it is all expanded. If it were an earthing issue, typically I'd expect you to have it have issues all the time. Unless it's really a combination of both things. Where the higher compression, and things being a bit tighter, is giving that bit of extra load and you do need a slight clean up on the cables/connections.

      Stagea Front CV Axle Question

      By dbm7 · Posted

      Yeah, this is one of the most annoying things about nissan part numbers... I've got an unrelated example... Image is of the AT output shaft ~ they have the same part#, but clearly the shaft on the left is beefier design to that on the right ...the difference (essentially) is the 'lighter' shaft on the right, is for engines up to RB25DE (this includes RB20 variants) : the shaft on the left is for RB25/26DET(T)....are they interchangeable? Yes...but obviously one shaft is going to be stronger than the other...and, the lighter shaft is around USD115, but the heavier shaft closer to USD150...same part#... ...epc-data usually tells a tale ~ the amayama listing for 39100-23U60 has a note "Longest side is between 60 and 105 cm" ; no such info is there for 39100-23U70 ...and given the great disparity in price between the 2 parts, it makes me at least curious (to the point of caution) where the 'extra money' went? ...ie; these 2 parts have a cost difference that (to myself at least) isn't explained by 'plastic boot'...ie; with amayama there's AUD700 price difference ...plastic versus rubber?...I'm not seeing it like that...and 60cm ~ 105cm...??...that's a huge disparity....something hinky going on here... I'd try searching by VIN, not model... /2cents

      Stagea Front CV Axle Question

      By Duncan · Posted

      I don't know for sure, but I'd expect them all to be interchangeable given the diff end and hub end don't move/change between any C34 series. Often Nissan will change part numbers and the aftermarket follows those year ranges; but the original part number change doesn't mean other parts won't fit. The change could be a change in material, internal parts or even just supplier. For example, all the RB gearbox to engine bolts are no longer available and there is a new part number instead. The only change is they went from cadmium plated bolts to zinc plated due to the issues manufacturing with Cadmium. They look different but work the same.

      One year is a bit concerning. Did you try contacting GSP? It says 5 year warranty on the box if I remember correctly. I'm also running their driveshafts on my S2 Stagea.   You could check the part numbers on Amayama for your year. Here's the link for my 1998 which gives the 39100-23U60 part number. Well, that and 39100-23U70. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/epc/nissan-japan/stagea/wgnc34/6649-rb25det/trans/391 What does it say for yours?
