z32s are 80mm and GTR afm's are 65mm

so they are larger and can physically measure more airflow

there is zero gain to fitting z32s other than being able to run more air through them

ie if your at 300awkw you wont gain power going to twin z32s

it will cost you a bomb however doing it

for GTR keep the 65mm shell and go for twin nismo afm's

these are 65mms and direct swap and it's a Z32 sensor inside the shell

so you get higher resolution in same shell and direct swap

yeah there is a changeover point where you peak 5v on the stock GTR afms and need to upgrade

the problem is it's a costly exercise so a lot of tuners have been able to strech the curve a bit

when you max them there is no harm done, it just means it cant show any more resolution

this means you dont use anymore load cells on the tune

if you max them at 6000rpm not a big deal

if you max them at 3200rpm a big deal and it ends up being a map sensor tune

when i say a map sensor tune, i mean the load axis never changes once you reach target boost

as map sensor is on pressure and boost is fixed by wastegate / boost controller

The modifications to the car are -5 turbos, tomie cams, power fc ,injectors,dumps ect.. the engine has just had a fresh build with forged internals.. i just want to get it all sorted before taking it in to be tuned.. what is your opinion? do them before it gets tuned?

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
