hey gary

can you get us the serial # from this 400rwkw Q45

and also a photo if the label?

i think there could be two types of Q45's going around, one is poo and maxes around 250rwkw and the other is OK and goes past 400kw

I don't have that particular Q45 AFM any more, but the current one (just about to go on) is supposed to be the same;

The label is yellow

22680 6IU00 A36-000 P60

1903F

JECS Made in Japan

The R33GTST's rebuilt RB25DET is going in tomorrow, then next week we start on the RB31DET into R32GTST, that's where this Q45 AFM is going. So I will have definitive results for this particular AFM in a few weeks.

There is another variable I have found, that maybe has an effect. It would appear that the R33GTST S2 (and onwards) alternator/voltage regulator runs at 14.2 volts, compared to 13.8 volts for the R33GTST S1, R33GTR S1 and all R32's. I need to test the output/input voltage from the ECU to see if that 0.4 volt difference has an effect on the AFM voltage.

Cheers

thanks - let us know

ive had a few guys come to me using the q45 on mid size gt30+ setups and they max around 260kw

it hits the ceiling pretty quickly in the rpm range, like around 4500rpm so its not a std Q45 ceiling that i would expect

Thanks for the confirmation of serial numbers on the Q45 AFM, They've been sitting here for ages, and I have maxed out Z32, so these will go in knowingly they will produce the goods.

I'm abit happier today than yesterday now.

im going through the Q45 AFM debarcle as well at the moment. Mine goes down to line 16 on 9psi!!! on 24psi its well and truley on the last load point :P

Is there anything i can do to help sort this crap out ?

I got 363rwkw but it was well and truley maxed out, does the Q45 go to 5.2 volts or 5 volt?

Cheers

Ive been threw this, Z32 maxed at 330wkw, Q45 maxed at 350wkw odd (used every Q45 part number as i had access to, use a lot of them), went round and round on what to do, including taking a Z32 or Q45 and cutting the sensor out of it and mounting it into my 100mm intake with a 45mm lexan tube around the bar to stop turbulance and cross flow, a few people are in the proccess of doing this.,

Eventualy I sold my used RB25 PFC on ebay and got a new R33 GTR D-jetro with sensors and everything and it cost me all of $60us difference (got to love how discontinued items rocket in value),

I had to upgrade my fuel system for the new motor so I just got low imp 1000cc top feed injectors with a greddy rail while I was at it.

MAF problems sorted/aborted and no more idle stall with the dual atmospheric bov's YAY

is that possible with the R34 GTT? i alwyas wanted to get rid of the stupid afms but was under the impression i coudlnt unless i got a haltec or some other ecu.....can i use a R34 GTR D Jetro?!??!?!?

At what RPM?

What AFM ramp table are you using?

I can get to 20 on zero boost by changing the ramp table

5.2 volts

I dont know about yours, but Rb25 swap to GTR is fairly simple, injectors, a few wires to add on and obviously the apexi map/temp harness bits and your in business,

The reason I didnt go haltec or autronic was the shear simplicity to do small corrections on the fly with the pfc as well as being able to monitor knock, voltages ectr, here in South Africa our fuel is unpredictable, one can see imidiatly if the knock increases and i can just temp remove a deg or 2 of timing out if need be,

yeah you can use BNR34 djetro PFC if you like

but youll have to adapt it to the 25t NEO - it will need a few changes and some custom mods to make it work

ask a workshop how much to make it suit 25t NEO

Think about it..........set your boost at say 1.5 bar and the MAP sensor is useless, it ALWAYS reads 1.5 bar. So you are tuning off RPM and throttle position. But what if you are at 100% throttle and 1.5 bar? Quite a common occurance wouldn't you say? Then you are tuning against RPM only, that's one dimensional tuning. Compare that to AFM tuning, you have 2 dimensions (AFM voltage and RPM) to tune against. When the AFM voltage maxes out, then you still have RPM to tune against. Which is exactly the same as MAP sensor driven ECU. So tell me where the advantage in going MAP sensor ECU is?

Cheers

Gary

Wouldnt it be fair to say though, that when your doing 5650rpm at WOT, 1.5bar boost, that the engine is using the same amount of air, as all the other times, that those attributes were present? ... ish :teehee:

answer to this is you want bigger get a 90mm ford lightning maf from the states, there is a guy doing 490hp at the treads at only 4.7v, even if it is american hp (not sure on what dyno was used) its still larger and has more resolution then its nissan counterparts.

if Map was so bad aftermarket and oem would not use them.Yes maf is marginally more accurate, but a correctly tunned map setup will work just as well, usually never even noticible.How many manufactures are moving away from maf and going to map due to reliabitly, packaging ectr, working for an oem and I can't see us moving to map especially with euro 4 emissions if there were not clear advantages that outweigh the tiny bit of accuracy seen on a perfectly clean maf.My biggest love of map vs maf is IAT temps, a most maf cars can not compensate for intercooler efficiency due to most not using iat sensors due to the nature of the maf, map systems have to use iat sensors so it can.

airflow always increase - look at someone's ljetro AFM logs and check the AFM value - it always increses to redline - map will run to the ceiling value of "boost" and stay there

just found this from the apexi documentation;

Source: Apexi Documentation

80m RB25 airflow meter can measure up to approx. 300ps (221kW)

80mm VG30 airflow meter can measure up to approx. 500ps (368kW)

90mm VH41 airflow meter can measure up to approx. 400ps (294kW)

*Output is calculated off of measurable air volume

    • For these last 7 years of ownership, I've always had to use a small scissor jack under one of the front tow hooks to raise the front just enough so my low-profile jack fits under to reach my subframe jack point. I'm beginning to get annoyed of always having to do this. Are there any lower low-profile jacks that fit under the gtr lip on a dropped car?
    • Seat of the pants assessment of the new intake: The car is way less "doughy" when hitting the loud pedal, especially off idle when stopped or in traffic, I did use a cheapo lazer thermal thingo to measure the temp around where the pod filter got its air, it was between 55 - 60°C, in saying this the car was shut off and not moving, so the OEM intake pipe was not supplying any fresh air to where the pod was when the car was at least moving A weird bonus was induction noise on the throttle in the cabin increased a bit,  I was worried that I was actually going to lose some of that induction noise I love so much, outside though, when I got the daughter to do a WOT drive by pass for me, the induction noise has increased alot when on the throttle, not quite ITB doort, but well up there I'm extremely happy with the results and have been exploring the country roads in the region  As for house mods: 1.New front fence is up and is awesome, it really upgraded how the joint looks from the street, and the added security is nice 2. Electricians have replace some interior lights, and with more lighting in the garage, a few new motion detecting lights out the front above the garage, front room, and at the front door, which I have already found heaps helpful coming and going, also now has fancy pants CCTV all round the house The only hold point for power though is the solar and batteries due to supply issues, although this will happen over the next few weeks 3. I have done a heap of landscaping out the front and I'm almost ready to do a new small retaining wall with some nice blocks to replace the brick and cemented in rocks around the raised garden beds cemented in river stone "was the fashion at the time" the house was built. I currently have a pallet of retaining wall blocks and 2 bulka bags of 20mm blue metal to replace the wood chip that is in the raised garden beds around the house 4. I now have 3 big raised garden beds for out the back to grow some vegetables, about 70cm high, 200cm long and 100cm wide 5. My 2 compost bins are already pretty full with brown, green and kitchen waste from the landscaping I'vedone so far, but they will probably take a few months to break down, so anything else that gets chopped, trimmed, and kitchen waste will just start filling the base of the raised garden beds to about 30cm before I start throwing 40cm of good compost, and stuff, for the vegetables to grow in, I'll need a few ton of compost and soil, but the local supplier can sent me bulka bags of the stuff Basically the logs, wood chips and a few strategically placed rocks for drainage, will give the beds some good organic materials down low to break down over time, and they will hold moisture during the warmer months to save the water in my big arse water tank if we don't get alot of rain So, all in all, the car and house mods are going well, and I'm really enjoying being retired, I sleep in too 0700 and slowly plod around inside until I feel like actually doing anything, and only work in the yard for as long as want, which has actually been alot over the last few weeks,  although when you look at it, it seems that not a huge amount of work has been done,  until I look at the before I started the work pics Happy days and good times indeed 
    • hahaha yeah. Plan is to get side skirts and probably just rear pods. But going to do them one-by-one. I've got a set that I really like from RHDJapen, but that one isn't shipped to AU. So need to find someone who can get it for me
    • Here's an idea, answer the questions I asked you as they are trying to work out WHY the LSD will be binding up in a straight line.
