hey guys..

so my afm is shitting itself.. have 2 options, get a new bosch z32 one for $300 + the cable or a new one for the rb20 for $1000 (unless someone knows of one cheaper) thats a genuine nissan one.

i dont want to get a second hand one as it may just as shite as mine, i want to elimnate the afm as the problem.

just wondering if you can run a z32 afm on the standard ecu for a bit, until i get a safc atleast, without detrimental problems, doesnt need to make killer power, just needs to run and eliminate the afm as the problem.

stupid question im sure, but anywho.

cheers

Send your AFM to me and ill repair it...easy

ive already pulled it apart and checked, cleaned, and re soldered the connections.. if thats what you mean by you fixing it. im not sure if it is definatly the afm.. could be shite in the tank/lines that is stopping full flow for a sec... could be afm.. so i really wanna knock it out and write the afm off.. so even if its consistently running rough becuase it has a z32 afm atleast i know the cause and its consistent. if it it still does what it does... then i know its not the afm.

paul, if you can assure me that your "fixing" will make it as good as new, then i will consider it, i can have it there today but i'd need it back asap..

cheers

z32 with no tuning will make it run lean, so lean it may not even run well at all, so that is not option, unless you retune to suit.

another afm for rb20/25 should only be $50 or so, what i sold my last one on here for.

thanks, thats all i needed to know. ill leave the z32 idea alone.. i know i can get another afm for anywhere from $50 to $220... but noone can guarantee the condition.. it may be just as faulty as mine. the only way to take the afm out of the question is to get a brand new one.

To eliminate the AFM just get it onto a scan tool. Injectronics do change over AFM's for around the price of a new Z32 item.

You make your payment and they will send you a new one and if that fixes the problem you send your old one back. If not you get your money back. They also have good warranty/guarantee. http://www.injectronics.com.au/

    • So I'll put filler past the repair area a bit to make sure I don't miss anything. Then I'll block it until it's almost level, put the guidecoat, then keep blocking until it's gone. Then it's still wavy.  In regards to hitting the panel, I saw this video might give more context - Skip to 0:47 he knocks it down. But yeah I'm sanding until the guidecoat is gone then checking because otherwise my filler is still well above the bodyline. Unless what you're saying is I should put guidecoat around it early, surrounding the filler then stip once it's gone?
    • I refreshed the OEM injectors with the kit and connected it up. It now ideals okay even with the IACV removed. Driving still has the same cutoff issue like the 550cc injectors so the issue is somewhere else. I bought FPG's Fuel Pump Hanger. I will be installing it next, but it is not as straightforward as I thought it was with my limited wiring knowledge and no instruction on the specific model I purchased (FPG-089). I also got the incorrect billet clamp as I could not find info on the OEM sizing.
    • Stop looking at the garage floor, and turn the radio up a bit louder if there's any strange noises...
    • No. Turbo shuffle and surge/flutter are not the same thing. Specifically, on a GTR, turbo shuffle has a definite meaning. On a GTR, the twin turbos are assumed to be the same thing and to operate the same way, exactly. In reality, they do not. Their exhaust sides are fed and exhaust a little differently, to each other. Their inlet sides are fed and exhausted a little differently, to each other. Consequently, when they are "working" they are often at slightly different points on the compressor map compared to each other. What this means, particularly when coming on boost, is that one of them will spool up and start producing extra flow compared to the other, which will put back pressure on that other compressor, which will push the operating point on that other compressor up (vertically). This will generally result in it bumping up against the surge line on the map, but even if it doesn't, it upsets the compressor and you get this surging shuffle back and forth between them That is "turbo shuffle" on a GTR. It is related to other flutter effects heard on other turbo systems, but it is a particular feature of the somewhat crappy outlet piping arrangement on RB26s. There are plenty of mods that have been attempted with varying levels of success. People have ground out and/or welded more material into the twin turbo pipe to try to prevent it. Extending the divider inside it works, removing material doesn't. There are aftermarket replacement twin turbo pipes available, and these exist pretty mush purely because of this shuffle problem.
    • You can temporarily* use lock collars to keep it in place until you can do the bushes, back the nuts off, slide them in, snug back up. *temporarily is often for ever
