I searched around without success.

I've reached about 95% on my AFMs and I'm looking to upgrade. I have a PFC about to go in.

Z32 appears to be the standard upgrade, but that's larger then I need. I was wondering if RB25DET AFMs would be a good upgrade. I gather two 25DET AFMs will flow more then the R32 GTR items????

Anyone done this change? Or any other suggestions.

Just get twin Nismo AFM's.

The are a Z32 sensor, in a stock AFM housing.

Therefore they bolt up to the factory piping. This is a key factor as it saves $$$ having to redo all the cooler piping and a lot of dicking around.

The Nismo AFM's are the next step up from the stock RB26 AFM's

Re-doing the afm piping isn't an issue as I was looking at reolacing the lot with stainless, just interested in if the rb20/25 afm was a workable upgrade or not.

Considering that I will only be paying for the materials, not the fabricating, the rb20/25's might work out cheaper than buying a pair of nismo afm's.

james.

rb20 and rb25 afm are same size and same calibration.

Rule of thumb for Air Flow meters RWKW & Engine BHP

added nismo afm onto paulr33's table

------ ---- OD ---- RWKW ---- RWKW ---- BHP ------ BHP

No of AFM's ---- ------- 1 -------- 2 -------- 1 -------- 2

RB26 ------ 65 ------ 149 ------ 299 ------ 271 ------ 474

RB20/25 --- 80 ------ 226 ------ 453 ------ 376 ------ 683

Z32 ------- 80 ------ 255 ------ 511 ------ 415 ------ 763

Nismo----65------------------570

Q45 ------- 90 ------ 302 ------ 605 ------ 479 ------ 890

Yes,

I have put 2 RB25afm's on my gtr...bought for $200 dollars...second hand off a member of this forum...got them fitted...modified old intake.

Had to buy 2 adaptors from Just Jap Sydney $80.....total...

So was in for cams and retune anyway...so fitting was $200(That is cutting the Tomie pipes that were there...installation of some adaptors as mentioned and

some silicone hose and clamps....it all looks good...total cost..

$480.....

If I knew this before...would have bought the Nismo items.......direct bolt on...lol...I did not need new plugs.....

Z32's require...plug adaptors.

If I find my post I will give you a link.

Nismo/Z32 are identical. So not sure what your getting at there.

And that above table is wrong.

I made 270rwkw on PULP with a Z32 and it was nowhere near maxing out. Same as a lot of other peoples.

    • Nah that is not actually a lot. Just painting my GTR frontend and the little bits to make sideskirts/nismo flare pieces work correctly/fit on the sedan/mount up correctly came to about $7000. Is it a lot? Sure. None of this is economical. Economy would be shelling the car and buying a 2010 Corolla to commute in. The perspective of all of this is different.
    • I have the 2025 build re003s’ on my 06 XT Forester Turbo and I quite rate them for street wet and dry
    • I don't see any issues here. I've been saying all along this is a big job, the price reflects that.  When the car comes back perfect I'm sure it will feel like money well spent. 
    • Remember, take original quote. Double it. Then add a bit more. It's how any project goes.
    • So, I started this repair and got as far as "fixing" the holes with some fibreglass. God all those years working on boats came back quickly. I decided I'd reach out to some rust guys just to see what they would say about it. I came across a guy about 40 mins away and went to see him. He said the windscreen needs to come out, that there might be some more bits around the windscreen and he'd quote them at the time. But his quote was $300 to remove and replace windscreen and $3k for the damage he can see. He said he could respray the roof for $1200 and the bonnet for another $800 (somebody has previously rattle canned it, its horrendous). This is $5300 + any small additional bits. It's a lot, I get that and the name of one of my fave youtube channels 'Not Economically Viable' comes to mind.  I'm not being financially rational, but I've taken him up on the quote. He's opening a new shop in November with more room, so we're waiting for that. I'll leave the currently missing headliner out until then. I'm looking forward to it being fixed and having the paint looking nice again (lots of clear coat issues on the roof too). / flame suit on.
