hi there, i was wondering if anyone knows whats the correct afm for the rb25det, the reason i am asking this is the car is running very rich and stutters when you try to move off from a standstill, when moving of, there is alot of black smoke coming out of the exhaust and there is alot of popping during the rpm range.

any info will be appreciated thanx

i would say the correct afm for an rb25det is an rb25det afm. :D

could be a few reasons for your probs. i dont know what ecu you are running, if you have a aftermarket one you prob just need tuning. Your BOV could be really loose and/or leaking at idle.

popping can be caused by the afm maxing out, you didnt say what boost you are running, but try to lower it. When the afm maxes out i believe the ecu chucks heaps of fuel in to avoid leaning out.

thanx for the reply turbo tits first of all,, the engine is one i bought from a guy and it was installed in my a31 cefiro the ecu is stock,, the boost is stock,and the bov is a blitz (i havent checked yet to see if its leaking) thats the reason i asked if anyone knows whats the correct afm,, would it be too much trouble if you could give me the numbers on one that you know for sure is an rb25det?

oh and according to the information that i got, the safc2 and the field controller does the same thing by means of intercepting the afm signals and altering them b4 going to the ecu,,they both can make the mixture leaner or richer and both have adjustments for the whole rpm range i believe it might work. whats your opinion? do you know of this type of controller?

    • I mean it's a bit late to say "This won't have any tangible effect and it is not worth spending more than about three seconds on it, please just enjoy the car" But I said it anyway. Does the pod actually get any airflow in that position behind a bumper like that?
    • Hey guys - apologies for digging this up. Has this website been shutdown or is the outage temporary?
    • So, went shopping at Just Jap for things that might work for the intake  After some trial fitting there I ended up with a 3" x 45° silicone bend, a 3" x 300mm alloy straight, and a humped joiner, some minor trimming will be required to shorten some of the stuff, but nothing that is beyond my "ham fisted" skills The guy at Just Jap was most helpful as we had all sorts of joiners,  bends and stuff out trial fitting  Laying it out above the stuff in there it seems everything will fit nicely, and looking at it, it is probably the way I should have been looking at doing it from the beginning, probably..... In the end it is a front bar off job anyway to remove the original stuff behind the front bar that is taking up the required realestate needed, so maybe a Thursday or Friday job And because I'm a hopeless consumer, I grabbed some new steel wheel nuts, the current ones are a spline drive type with a "security" socket, that somehow someone keeps misplacing, the new ones are a basic black steel 17mm hex socket In other news: I just did my "final" tax return, I am now officially a old retired veteran pensioner, and I'm milking the system for all it's worth,  life is good
    • I hadn't thought about the variable power steering assist. Presumably, it will always be the same level of assist as you get in an S14. The R32/3/4 are either helliishly heavy (at low speeds) if the solenoid is not powered at all, or hellishly too light (at high speed) if it is powered all the time. I presume that it is PWM controlled on those cars. I hadn't thought about the S cars not having variable assist. ugh. What crappy plebby cars they must be!  
    • Hmm yeah that is a good point. It looks like it'll just bolt in with no real issue besides maybe the bushings being different. My other concern was that 2 pin plug that I assume is used in some way to control the rack solenoid depending on the speed signal from the ecu. The DMAX rack doesn't even have that plug though so, don't think it'll matter. Might just order the rack and see how it goes. Will update this when I figure something out
