hey guys,

today i started up the 1992 r32 gts-t, its stock with boost gauge and boost controller cat back exhaust, anyways, the car idles erratically and rev limits at around 2500rpm? how do i fix this asap? i've read elsewhere it could be the AFM or soemthing? any advice or a how to fix would be much appreciated.

also before this issue began my RPM gauge would go mental and turn completely past the redline, the revs don't change just the actual gauge itself, r these issues related??

Thanks

posted a video on youtube of the problem so so you can exactly what im talking about.

Definitely sounds like AFM. Unplug it and see if the car runs the same.

Try this:

car wont run without the afm matey but yeh it definetely sounds like it they do weird things depending on how low the voltage in them has gone just get a replacement one they are pretty cheap second hand for around 100 u should find one under. u havent tinkered with anything while the car has been laying there idle?

ok so heres an update, i started it up this morning and it was fine again? wtf, it first happened while i was going through a round about in 3rd gear, got out from the round about and the gear started limiting at 2500rpm so i pulled over and while the car was rolling (still running) i gave it a rev and it fixed itself, drove it home with no issue, then the next day went to start it and it was limiting as i drove up the block it hit 2.5k rpm and started like bunny hopping so took it home, left it, started it up in the arvo was fine, no issues. then as of now, this morning, is all good again??? could the wiring be short circuiting or is my afm dying?? as of right now i just drove it and its fine...only reason i ask about the wiring is because in the 1 - 2 weeks that ive owned the car, the window reg died (replaced it), the rpm gauge goes mental and last time i touched the heater i couldn't turn it off >< lol so i had to bash it then it turned off lol...any thoughts?

There is probably a bad solder joint inside the AFM. If you have a soldering iron you can crack it open and repair it using the How To on here somewhere. If not you will have to replace it.

?? Mine starts with the AFM unpluged, but it idles at like 1300rpm and limited to 2500rpm. Have I got a vacumm leak or something?

if it won't run without the afm then you have another problem

r32's definitely will run without one, i drove about 5kms without one when my cooler pipe let go (exploded out of the car and into the bush, never saw that one again

    • Hey. Very valuable information about pitwork, I will pay attention when buying any consumable parts 🙏 As for the carpets - I got a handful of information from nengun, from which it appears that indeed the carpets for the driver's side are OEM. They are not able to show me any pictures due to the long chain of different sales entities but after I place the order, as soon as the goods arrive at the nengun warehouse from which they will send the shipment to me they can send me photos and if my purchase differs from OEM I can immediately return it / cancel the purchase. I think I will give it a try 😉. Of course i'll let you know what's what as soon as i get them P.s. I know the topic is not relevant to the thread, but both nengun and amayama have these SICK 😍 trunk room lamps available. Do you know anyone who ordered them? I need to have one in my car

    • I believe @Duncan has given it a crack at Mt Buller before (in actual race conditions)
    • All my Polish car culture insight comes from watching Nightride. So I half expect this to get 1UZ swapped eventually?! Are you going to drive it in winter? I'm always curious how ATTESA would hold up in the snow. There isn't that much opportunity to try it in Australia.
