Nick just suggested seeing what it would cost for one brand new. There is no way i'd go new for that price.

Have you been able to get a hold of a Z32 AFM yet for your build?

...talking about builds, at the workshop where I take my car there was a R33 gtst with high mount CGC turbo (600hp X?? range). started spooling at 4000rpm and hit full boost at 5500rpm.

He had what looked like a modified standard plenum that was forward facing, turbosmart external wastegate, and worked internals.

Where you going that extreme (basicly it was for drag racing and not that much for street).

i had the z32 afm ages ago, i just got the plug for it yesterday and its all installed. I got external gate and 3037 going on custom manifold! the internals are staying standard till it blows or when i decide to spend more dosh at once with headwork, 1.6mm head gasket, forged piston, short penned rods and nitrided crank!

Im not sure what brand it is, my mechanic had it and put it on the exhaust side. It wasn't touched when I got the tune as the guy tuning didn't believe it made any difference.

I heard cams can make a difference of 30kw in the lower power band, is that correct? might be worth investing in some.

Hi Mark25T,

You can buy Z32 AFM's from Petroject in sydney, in an as new condition go to http://www.petroject.com.au/ and look under EFI parts or call them on 1300 30 40 60, they won't cost you $850 thats for sure!

As for the plug that connects to the Z32 AFM yes you will need to get a new one. The plug that goes onto your existing AFM will not plug into the Z32AFM however all you need do is obtain a plug from a RB30 (out of a VL) as this plugs straight onto a Z32AFM..well it did when i installed Z32AFM's on my car! Just take your Z32AFM to any VL wrecker to make sure it plugs straight on.

cam gears make a huge difference in the tuneability of the car. My car was not making boost until around 4200rpm and full boost not being reached until after 5000rpm I then had it tuned with heaps of attention being paid to the cam timing via the cam gears...end result boost starts at 3000rpm and reaches peak boost at 4400rpm, thus much better street performance. Really just depends on what you want your car to do!

Cheers

      RB20DE NEO smallbox clutch.

      By Kapr · Posted

      Hi...so a "development" here aswell The swap is "done" and car went "test drive" BUT it seems the clutch(maybe gearbox?) is a little bit sad? I bought this clutch kit https://justjap.com/products/xtreme-heavy-duty-organic-clutch-flywheel-kit-nissan-skyline-r31-r32-r33-push-type "Problem" is that the first gear is hard to put into and it seems that the clutch is not disengaged. It was not the problem with the old clutch...(or like sometime the first gear would not get as easy specialy when the fluid was cold) So? Can it be like...bad "install" or is the clutch wrong ((it should not have been) i done research to get the right one) Or is this "normal" with new clutch and needs to be break in?

      R33 GTST Steering Rack (49001-19U05) Rebuild?

      R33 GTST Steering Rack (49001-19U05) Rebuild?

      By Gantai · Posted

      Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.

      I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
