i was wondering if anyone could tell me how can i minimise this. only happens when im climbing hills at low revs.

alsogoing in for a dyno soon i was wondering is there a big difference between using z32 AFM compared to standard, is it just easier to tune using z32 or

do you get more power from it?

when you say chuffing? do you mean compressor surge? turbo may be too small for the motor. if you have an electronic boost controller, you may be able to bring the boost on later.

as for AFM's, its tuning resolution, air goes through the AFM, and voltage increases with more air going through, problem with the stock one is it reaches max voltage with not alot of air going through it, so when you start moving more air (with a GT30) the ECU wont know because the AFM tops out too early. clear as mud?

i had compressor surge with a highflow turbo i had, and it would only surge when coming underload (* going up hills, just comin onto boost)

i found out that the wheels (wheels were from an isuzu truck) that were in the turbo were way too big for it, and was pushing air back through the afm, or something to that effect.

i have a gt30r, and only issue i had with it was idle cause the air coming from it was affecting afm, so the afm was just moved further away from the turbo and is now fine.

i think the hks cast low mount manifolds with balance pipe would eliminate it

Balance pipe for a GTR, no balance pipe for a Gtst.

I opted for the 100mm intake with the reversion flutes for my GT3076 aka Gt30r, just in case, to be sure, to be sure [and I have the Hks cast low mount and hi temp coated + extrude honed]. I have nil problems with it, but I am running with Tomei 256/8.5's so it will be just a bit different to std there as well.

You'll need a Z32 with the Gt30r, std will not give enough.

lol a GT30R frame being too small for the motor, what a load of rubbish. It has nothing to do with that at all.

R33747 - When you say you don’t have a Z32 on there now, what is the state of the tune?

Fact you don’t have a Z32 makes me think your running a half-done setup as a GT30 is going to give you 270rwkw+…

A stocker AFM wont even come close

Now, the below is assuming you've setup the car and tuned it correctly etc, which I don’t think you have.

The GT30R is most likely the 600hp variant most likely...

They have a compressor wheel that’s classed as oversize... so at low RPM its going to surge, mine did just a little around 2000rpm.

Not a lot you can do unless you wanna start playing around with things.

The easiest way is to get the smaller 500hp wheel in the front, fixes all the problems and the car will be more responsive and virtually make the same peak power.

i had Z32 AFM on the car when i had the power fc but when i got an EPA i put the stock ecu back in but the car wouldnt run properly with the Z32. i was just wondering if i could get away with it ( running stock AFM ) because its a hassle changing it. Also what kind of boost would you consider as safe when going for a dyno tune. Ive blown 1 motor and i dont wat to did it again.. I was thinking around 1 Bar. What are peoples thoughts thanks or experiences?

      Update 3: Hi all It's been a while. Quite a lot of things happened in the meantime, among other things the car is (almost) back together and ready to be started again. Things that I fixed or changed: Full turbo removal, fitting back the OEM turbo oil hardlines. Had to do quite a bit of research and parts shopping to get every last piece that I need and make it work with the GT2860 turbos, but it does work and is not hard to do. Proves that the previous owner(s) just did not want to. While I was there I set the preload for the wastegates to 0,9bar to hopefully make it easier for the tuner to hit the 370hp I need for the legal inspections that will follow later on. Boost can always go up if necessary. Fitted a AN10 line from the catch can to the intake hose to make the catchcan and hopefully the cam covers a slight vacuum to have less restrictive oil returns from the head and not have mud build up as harshly in the lines and catch can. Removed the entire front interior just shy of the dashboard itself to clean up some of the absolutely horrendous wiring, (hopefully) fix the bumpy tacho and put in LED bulbs while I was there. Also put in bulbs where there was none before, like the airbag one. I also used that chance to remove the LED rpm gauge on the steering column, which was also wired in absolute horror show fashion. Moved the 4in1 Prosport gauge from sitting in front of the OEM oil pressure gauge to the center console vents, I used a 3D printed vent piece to hold that gauge there. The HKB steering wheel boss was likely on incorrectly as I sometimes noticed the indicator reset being uneven for left vs. right. In the meantime also installed an airbag delete resistor, as one should. Installed Cube Speed premium short shifter. Feels pretty nice, hope it'll work great too when I actually get to drive. Also put on a fancy Dragon Ball shift knob, cause why not. My buddy was kind enough to weld the rust hole in the back, it was basically rusted through in the lowermost corner of the passenger side trunk area where the wheel arch, trunk panel and rear quarter all meet. Obviously there is still a lot of crustiness in various areas but as long as it's not rusted out I'll just treat and isolate the corrosion and pretend it's not there. Also had to put down a new ground wire for the rear subframe as the original one was BARELY there. Probably a bit controversial depending on who you ask about this... but I ended up just covering the crack in the side of the engine block, the one above the oil feed, with JB Weld. I used a generous amount and roughed up the whole area with a Dremel before, so I hope this will hold the coolant where it should be for the foreseeable future. Did a cam cover gasket job as the half moons were a bit leaky, and there too one could see the people who worked on this car before me were absolute tools. The same half moons were probably used like 3 times without even cleaning the old RTV off. Dremeled out the inside of the flange where the turbine housing mates onto the exhaust manifolds so the diameter matches, as the OEM exhaust manifolds are even narrower than the turbine housings as we all know. Even if this doesn't do much, I had them out anyways, so can't harm. Ideally one would port-match both the turbo and the manifold to the gasket size but I really didn't feel up to disassembling the turbine housings. Wrapped turbo outlet dumps in heat wrap band. Will do the frontpipe again as well as now the oil leak which promted me to tear apart half the engine in the first place is hopefully fixed. Fitted an ATI super damper to get rid of the worn old harmonic balancer. Surely one of the easiest and most worth to do mods. But torquing that ARP bolt to spec was a bitch without being able to lock the flywheel. Did some minor adjustments in the ECU tables to change some things I didn't like, like the launch control that was ALWAYS active. Treated rusty spots and surface corrosion on places I could get to and on many spots under the car, not pretty or ideal but good enough for now. Removed the N1 rear spats and the carbon surrounding for the tailpipe to put them back on with new adhesive as the old one was lifting in many spots, not pretty. Took out the passenger rear lamp housing... what do you know. Amateur work screwed me again here as they were glued in hard and removing it took a lot of force, so I broke one of the housing bolts off. And when removing the adhesive from the chassis the paint came right off too. Thankfully all the damaged area won't be visible later, but whoever did the very limited bodywork on this car needs to have their limbs chopped off piece by piece.   Quite a list if I do say so myself, but a lot of time was spent just discovering new shit that is wrong with the car and finding a solution or parts to fix it. My last problem that I now have the headache of dealing with is that the exhaust studs on the turbo outlets are M10x1.25 threaded, but the previous owner already put on regular M10 nuts so the threads are... weird. I only found this out the hard way. So now I will just try if I can in any way fit the front pipe regardless, if not I'll have to redo the studs with the turbos installed. Lesson learned for the future: Redo ALL studs you put your hands on, especially if they are old and the previous owners were inept maniacs. Thanks for reading if you did, will update when the engine runs again. Hope nothing breaks or leaks and I can do a test drive.

      No those pads are DBA too  but they have colors too. I look at the and imo the green "street" are the best.

      Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
