Z32 Air flow meters

I have Z32 Air Flow Meters. I have an orange sticker on each AFM with 22680-30P00 A36-000 N62 printed on it. A Bosch cross reference document (see the link below) shows that both Bosch part numbers F00E000202 and 2268063107 are replacements. I am also told that they are cheaper than the Nissan part. There's a Tutorial on the Skylines Australia forum (see my main page for the link) on how to connect the wiring.

Spot on Paul, the Bosch units are around half the price of the Genuine Nissan unit.

AVCR, Defi Gauge, and seperate external gauge all read 1.2 bar - no boost leaks evident.

Try conecting one of the gauges to the compressor outlet and comparing the readings with another gauge connected to the plenum. You should see a slight loss across the intercooler and the pipework, a couple of psi only.

:P cheers :(

Rang the sponsor today and they have no hesitation in me sending back the AFM for a warranty replacement. When i purchased this, it did not arrive in a bosch box, rather, just a brown generic box, but in a clear plastic bag. The sponsor stated that a few of these had been returned last year due to the exact same reason of maxing out to early, and some customers weren't happy that they were received one without the genuine box. There is a 12 month warranty on the AFM, but I guess i'm one of the odd few, that just never got around to installing it until now. I've been advised that the replacement AFM will also be another new genuine item, but will be delivered with the genuine bosch box.

For those that asked if the right selection was made in the Power FC, yes it is set for Z32. We put the stock afm back on, and it operated at around 4.7 approx same power output.

No, there are no "China copy" AFM's on the market - That really is a stupid rumour :santa:

As far as I can tell, there was an early batch of Bosch AFM's that had some problems. I bought a pair of them for my GTR and when I discovered that they were misbehaving during tuning I contacted the shop I purchased them from and they confirmed that the issue with their behaviour was a known problem and had been taken up with the company that supplies many dealers in Australia.

Both of them were promptly replaced under warranty without question :thumbsup:

HI MY NAME IS "IM WRONG"

The mesh was exactly like this when it arrived. Other than that it looks like all the rest I've seen on here. Sending it off for replacement tomorrow.

HI MY NAME IS "IM WRONG"

Rather than come off like a wanker, why don't you try adding something a little more constructive to this thread :action-smiley-069:

The AFM's that I picked up for my GTR, came from the same dealer that _8OO5TED_ and silman's AFM's came from and were in the same white box with the mesh section that didn't look 'brand new' as I would have expected. I know

I was suitably unimpressed when my two new Z32 AFM's maxed out at 300awkw :P

I just phoned the shop that I bought them from yet again and they confirmed that the supplier that provides the Bosch AFM's to a number of shops around the country is the biggest Bosch distributor in Australia and apparently one of the batches they received came in these white boxes like mine did. They tell me that since raising the issue with the supplier company, all future deliveries they have received have come in original Bosch boxes and packaging and apparently they have had no issues since.

As far as I can see there no solid proof as yet to suggest that these bad ones actually came from China so for everyones sake I think its best that we all stick to facts rather than assumptions.

I guess the main thing to be weary of is make sure you get full warranty when buying, and purchase from a reliable dealer so if something should go wrong you can have it addressed immediately

    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
    • Place the new daughterboard in the case and mount it using the 3 small black rivets provided, and reconnect the 3 factory ribbon cables to the new board Then, use the 3 piggyback cables from the daughterboard into the factory board on top (there are stand offs in the case to keep them apart. and remember to reconnect the antenna and rear cover fan wires. 1 screw to hold the motherboard in place. Before closing the case, make a hole in the sticker covering a hole in the case and run the cable for the android unit into the plug there. The video forgot this step, so did I, so will you probably. Then redo the 4 screws on back, 2 each top and bottom, 3 each side and put the 2 brackets back on.....all ready to go and not that tricky really.      
    • Onto the android unit. You need to remove the top screen because there is a daughterboard to put inside the case. Each side vent pops out from clips; start at the bottom and carefully remove upwards (use a trim remover tool to avoid breaking anything). Then the lower screen and controls come out, 4 screws, a couple of clips (including 3 flimsy ones at the top) and 3 plugs on the rear. Then the upper screen, 4 screws and a bunch of plugs and she is out. From there, remove the mounting brackets (2 screws each), 4 screws on the rear, 2 screws top and bottom and 3 screws holding in the small plates on each side. When you remove the back cover (tight fit), watch out for the power cable for the fan, I removed it so I could put the back aside. The mainboard is held in by 1 screw in the middle, 1 aerial at the top and 3 ribbon cables. If you've ever done any laptop stuff the ribbon cables are OK to work with, just pop up the retainer and they slide out. If you are not familiar just grab a 12 year old from an iphone factory, they will know how it works The case should now look like this:
    • Switching the console was tricky. First there were 6 screws to remove, and also the little adapter loom and its screws had to come out. Also don't forget to remove the 2 screws holding the central locking receiver. Then there are 4 clips on either side....these were very tight in this case and needed careful persuading with a long flat screw driver....some force required but not enough to break them...this was probably the fiddliest part of the whole job. In my case I needed both the wiring loom and the central locking receiver module to swap across to the new one. That was it for the console, so "assembly is the reverse of disassembly"
