Hi guys

i was driving my R32 the other day and was giving it abit and hit a small bump in the road which lifted the car abit which made the RPM's spike over 9000rpm. then i heard a puff sound and looked back and saw lots of black/grey smoke. then the car stalled.

i pulled over at that stage and tired starting it. which it idle at 2rpm and then stalled seconds later. so im thinking i blew the engine.

got the car towed home and did comp test which came up good. range of 135-145psi which i had at start of the year.

recently i been having problem with my Z32 afm. would the cause the problem of the car stalling and ideling high?

cheers

check you diddnt also blow a cooler pipe or similar..... sometimes an easy way to check is to unplug your afm then try and start it

checked all the piping all good. how would the car run without the afm pluged in?

Did you solder the Z32 wiring plug yourself or do something dodgy like only twist the wires together? The non-standard idling could be the AAC needs cleaning

the Z32 wiring was done by a auto elec...

would the ACC stall the car?

it may not be the afm wiring but the actual internal pins of the afm which need soldering.

your car lifted off the ground then landed?

that would be enough of a jolt to crack solder joints on an old AFM.

search these forums for SOLDER+AFM to see the DIY on how to fix it.

when mine started playing up, the symptoms were.

1.) idle go from 300 to 2000, then back, then up, then back etc.

2.) and when I get it to drive, it would not boost or go over 2000rpm.

    • You can’t see much on the other side as the lcd is there I don’t think it’s the same as the m33 beside it as the markings on top is not the same was hoping someone had a good quality photo or if they just happened to have the unit in hand, quickly take the cover off and take a photo to clearly show the marking on top to identify the diode   the unit is currently with an electronics repair shop so I can’t take another photo at the moment hopefully they are smart enough to know if it’s a zener diode or not
    • I'd be very surprised if you can buy new OEM mats. But if you can, I want some too!  Do you have links to the variations you found? Also, where are you located? I found that Nengun is happy to list items to purchase but when you do buy them you'll get an email that it's actually discontinued. As far as I know the variations in floor mats are different colour schemes as well as automatic and manual having a slightly different shape. The automatic ones fit into a manual car without issues, but I think you'd have trouble fitting the other way around. I have photos that show the shape difference if you care. FWIW I bought sets of used floor mats in decent condition at yahoo auctions.
    • Hi 🙋‍♂️. Just bought my Unicorn but the interior need some minor work so it would match my expectations ;). I noticed it is hard to get used oem floor mats in good condition so i started to dig if there's any chance to buy set of new ones. I found two websites - nengun and amayama and it looks like one can still buy factory new floor mats in Japan, but thers a small issue. Some mats (i assume genuine, oem ones) are marked as G4900 and these are "discontinued". The ones you can buy are marked as G4911 but i have no idea if these are also oem, made by other producer or some lower quality replacements that looks entirely different. Can anyone help? 😃  P.s. there is also some strange indication - 0V005, 0V015 and 0V505. Any idea what does it mean? Would appreciate any help with this 🙏
    • Hi, Marek here 🙋‍♂️. I finally fulfilled my longtime dream - recently bought Stagea and now waiting for it to arrive in Poland. There's only few of these in my country, and one of the owners  recommended mi this forum as a source of all the info i'd need since now i own one  so here i am.  
    • Version 1 aluminium airbox is.......not acceptable No pics as I "didn't like the look.....alot" Even after all my "CAD", and measurements, the leg near the fusebox just didn't sit right as it ended up about 10mm long and made the angle of the dangle look wrong, the height was a little short as well, meh, I wasn't that confident that Version 1 was going to be an instant winner I might give Version 2 another go, there's plenty of aluminium at work, but, after having in on and off a few times, and laying in the old OEM airbox without the new pod filter and MAF, there may be an option to modify the OEM air box and still use the Autoexe front cover and filter.... maybe This >  Needs to fit in here, but using the panel, and not the pod, the MAF will need to fit in the airbox though> I'm thinking as the old OEM box and Autoexe cover that is sitting in the shed is just sitting around doing nothing, and they are relatively abundant and cheap to replace if I mess it up and need another, it may well fit with some modifications to how the Autoexe brackets mounts to the rad support, and some dremiling to move it get in there, should give me some more room for activities, as I don't want to move the MAF and affect the tune Sealing the hole it requires to stick it in the air box is simple, a tight fit and some pinch weld will seal it up tight  I am calling this a later problem though
