i have been having problems with my z32afm for a while now. i remembered that i droped it from standing hieght before i got it installed. would this break it. it hits 5115v on the pfc hand controller putting out 250rwhp and on .8 bar. its been tuned twice with this afm on and niether shop have said anything. the car runs really rich and isnt making as much power as i would hope for with me supporting mods

which are

fmic

hks dump

nismo cat back

splitfire coils

fuel pump

pfc

avcr

stock turbo at a bar when being tuned

k&n pod

i thought for a bit i had a dodgy ebay afm. but i just checked the serial numbers which match ones that paulr33 has on one of his fact pages. i am willing to buy new one just want to check if its nessacary first. or should i ask a tuning shop as well. but that would mean dyno time which means $$

any opinions or help would be appreciated

thanks dan

If its running really rich, then its in the tune, not an AFM problem, although the rich tune can easily be reducing the power the car makes. I would have thought 250rwhp is about right for a stock turbo running .8 bar

yeh but would a bad tune explain why its maxing out??? thats what im asking coz isnt a z32 good for around 450hp or more and a stock turbo would be pulling in that much air to eplain the maxing out

    • Block bump. $400. As above cyl 6 needs bore or sleeve.
    • I would think making the argument that the travel is limited by a spring flexing against a spring perch as "the same method". Later on in the document they do state that the spring can't bind on full bump travel and cannot come loose in full rebound travel as well. (which is all very sensible). The laws are actually pretty sensible and reasonable. It's just that the people who enforce and check them don't actually read them or know them accurately. "Oh, coilovers? Instant fail mate. Don't even need to look at it." - Guy who will be instantly reported by me. There is probably merit to people who do get defected for height also get defected for the suspension in that state that allows it. I did never consider the people who are complaining about coilovers being picked on are also running around at 50mm off the floor.
    • I think given SAU's knowledge of E85 we can strongly conclude that 10% ethanol in almost any situation is entirely fine. Almost all of the myths against E85 were overblown, let alone E10.
    • From your link See bold text, is this referring to damper settings, if so that may a issue for "some" inspectors, I cannot see aftermarket coilovers having the evidence that "must be available that its functional performance is equivalent to the original" Maybe just remove the adjustment knows and hope for the best???? Meh 5.2 Suspension travel In all instances, modifications to a vehicle’s suspension must ensure the integrity of the system and not compromise the ride quality. At least two thirds of the original suspension travel should be maintained in both directions (rebound (i.e. extension) and bump (i.e. compression)), and rebound must be limited by the same method used by the vehicle manufacturer or if this is not practicable due to the nature of the modification, an equivalent method. If an alternative method is used, evidence must be available that its functional performance is equivalent to the original.
    • They actually don't - They adhere to VSB14 rules just like Victoria. The rules are against CABIN adjustable height, and it quite clearly states that the height has to be within parameters. I asked the VASS engineer to confirm this when I got my car engineered and they refused to engineer the coilovers because they didn't meet the requirements for requiring engineering. (mine are height adjustable.) People "Not wanting to bother" with "Actually reading/knowing/adhering to the rules" should result in fines and immediately losing the ability to issue blue slips and/or RWC's in Vic.
