Well i have been chasing air flow meters for about a month now with no luck at all.

I tried to buy green lable rb25 ones or nismo ones and found a seller on here who does not respond to his forsale post or private msg but he gets on every day."GTRholic"For a guy selling stuff but not responding to any one whos trying to buy stuff from him then whats the god damn point.

Also tried to buy new nismo ones but having no luck there aswell.

Perfect run are out of stock and they dont know when they will get some in.

I google nismo air flow meters and got a link to SAU to JDM concept.So i pmed the guy on sau and after 5 days no reply i made a post in his trader thred then got no reply after another few days so i went to his website and looked for a phone number and guess what they dont have one so i emailed there web site and got back this reply

Please do not spam, your email is in queue. There are other people who is before you and they wait patiently for the questions to be answered.

You have goto be kidding right? i work for my self and would never have any work if replyed to a customer after 8 days of waiting for a reply.

Im over it i just want to find some one who can sell me some god damn air flow meters.

Had to let my frustration out sorry for the rant but god damn

Can any one point me in the right direction to buy some AFM please im chasing nismo's as they are direct replacment.

its probably easier to find a pair of Z32s

have you thought of this?

but would mean a change in pipework ducting to suit the 80mm shell

if you have a PFC you can even use a pair of RB20/RB25 AFMs

My tuner does not want to use z32 afms if we can help it mate.

I always go by why my tuner recomends.

Jdm concept guy is a peice of work.

8 days to reply to my original email about buying the air flow meters from him.Heres his response

"Please do not spam, your email is in queue. There are other people who is before you and they wait patiently for the questions to be answered"

10 minutes to respond to my email when i told him to forget about it ill source my items some where else and i got this

"I am not interested in customer who gives attitude anyway. I am sorry customer is not king. Certainly I don’t need you either."

What a jackass really a internet company who does not give a rats ass about customers lol.

Im still trying to get in contact with GTRholic if any body knows him he has 2x green lable rb25 afms(will have to do for now.) hes from the gold coast and logs on every day but does not seem to check his forsale thread or his inbox is full.

If any one knows him give him a call and let him know there are a few people trying to get onto him to buy parts from him.

Guys this is not my cat to swing but it was suggested to me that whats different about these Nismo AFM's compared to the std ones is the sensor element and the electronics attached to them . Has anyone looked at original Nismo AFM's guts to see if they are std on a less performance oriented Nissan or whatever ?

Cheers A .

As far as im aware the nismo ones have a VG30 afm guts in them but are still std size and able to flow more hp then the stock ones.

Btw i have only had the car a about a month but in that time i have already bought

dba 4000 rotas all round + new pads

040 boche intank fuel pump

splitfire coil packs

700 denzo injectors

Im not messing around here or leaving it to the last minute and you can ask any one who knows me i do not cut corners i will spend the extra cash to make sure my car is legal and set up as safe as possible motor wise and tunning.AFM are the last part to the puzzel for my tune.

The problem is solved guys.

Thank you very much for your time and any help.

im a happy man now with a sly smile on my face.

Now just looking at the tuning side of things to go.

It does seem the search function has been sorely missed through all this by the OP

Posted about a week ago, with all the prices I found, and the supplier I used. New Nismo AFMS $920 delviered 1 week after I ordered.

Where is the smiley bashing his head on the wall gone???

    • You won't need to do that if your happy to learn to tune it yourself. You 100% do not need to do that. It is not part of the learning process. It's not like driving on track and 'finding the limit by stepping over the limit'. You should not ever accidently blow up an engine and you should have setup the ECU's engine protection to save you from yourself while you are learning anyway. Plenty of us have tuned their own cars, myself included. We still come here for advice/guidance/new ideas etc.  What have you been doing so far to learn how to tune?
    • Put the ECU's MAP line in your mouth. Blow as hard as you can. You should be able to see about 10 kPa, maybe 15 kPa positive pressure. Suck on it. You should be able to generate a decent vacuum to about the same level also. Note that this is only ~2 psi either way. If the MAP is reading -5 psi all the time, ignition on, engine running or not, driving around or not, then it is severely f**ked. Also, you SHOULD NOT BE DRIVING IT WITHOUT A LOAD REFERENCE. You will break the engine. Badly.
    • Could be correct. Meter might be that far out. Compare against a known 5 ohm 1% resistor.
    • @Murray_Calavera  If I were an expert I wouldn't be in here looking for assistance.  I am extremely computer literate, have above average understanding on how things should be working and how they should tie together.  If I need to go to a professional tuner so be it, but I'd much rather learn and do things myself even if it means looking for some guidance along the way and blowing up a few engines. @GTSBoy  I was hoping it would be as simple as a large vacuum leak somewhere but I'm unable to find anything, all lines seem to be well capped or going where they need to be, and when removed there is vacuum felt on the tube.  It would be odd for the Haltech built in MAP to be faulty, the GTT tune I imported had it enabled from the start, I incorrectly assumed it was reading a signal from the stock MAP, but that doesn't exist.  After running a vacuum hose to the ECU the signal doesn't change more than 0.2 in either direction.   I'll probably upload a video of my settings tomorrow, as it stands I'm able to daily drive, but getting stuttering when giving it gas from idle, so pulling away from lights is a slow process of revving it up and feathering the clutch until its moving, then it will accelerate fine.  It sounds like I need to get to the bottom of the manifold pressure issue, but the ignition timing section is most intimidating to me and will probably let a pro do that part.  Tomorrow I'll try a different vacuum line to T off of, with any luck I selected one that was already bypassed during the DBW swap.  (edit: I went out and did it right now, the line I had chosen did appear to have no vacuum on it, it used to go to the front of the intake, I've now completely blocked that one off at the bracket that holds several vacuum lines by the firewall.  I T'd into the vacuum line that goes from that bracket to the vacuum pump at the front of the car, but no change in the MAP readings).  Using the new vacuum line that has obvious vacuum on the hose, im still only getting readings between -6.0 and -5.2.  I'm wondering why the ECU was detecting -5.3 when nothing was connected to the MAP nipple and ECU MAP selected as the source. @feartherb26  I do have +T in the works but wanted to wait until Spring to start with that swap since this is my good winter AWD vehicle.  When removing the butterfly, did it leave a bunch of holes in the manifold that you needed to plug?  I thought about removing it but assumed it would be a mess.   I notice no difference when capping the vacuum line to it or letting it do its thing.  This whole thing has convinced me to just get a forward facing manifold when the time comes though.
    • Update: tested my spark plugs that are supposed to be 5ohms with a 10% deviation and one gave me a 0 ohms reading and the rest were 3.9ohm<, so one bad and the others on their way out.
