Is the pfc software set to the z32 afm make sure the plug gap is .8mm and check if the wiring to the z32 afm is right you can read the plug wrong from left to right had a car in the

other day with same problem all it was was the afm wiring was wrong if ths is all ok check fuel pressure and the tune

def woulnt be a melted piston it wouldnt go do_a_skid

andogtr z32 air flow meter has always been in the car and tuned to the power fc. it only started this problem a few months ago it just got worse. i regaped the old plugs and cleaned them and put them back in and now goes hard. but it did that with the new plugs for a few days then went back to how it was. so might be fowling the plugs ? the new ones i pulled back out are really black and sooty .

Well Curtis you are getting some were sounds now like the tune and fuel pressure need checking i actually dyno tune and fault find for a living done alot with pfc s if you need to run it on our dyno we are in ulverstone at southside on 64259320 your only in burnie arnt you so wouldnt be much of a hassle to look at your car for you Cheers and good luck

Yea post up if tune fixes it. My stagea is doing the exact same thing. Hand controller says it leaning out on output (-12). Valves have been opened to maximum when previous owner had it tuned by fuel tech in Launnie.

    • Nice one, I'd argue that the white S1 RS260 is certainly the best looking of the Stageas. And yes, fully agree on the forum situation. It's a bit of a shame, but at least SAU is a good place to be. I found the facebook groups to give me FOMO because people were trying to one-up each other and show off in some way. Feels much more natural here. There are people with seriously nice builds, but I can appreciate it rather than it making me question my life choices. Might be that people are more open with sharing how much work/money/suffering it takes to actually get there. 
    • Evening, wanted to pop in and finally register to say hi to everyone here on SAU!   It's been a while since I've been active on a forum, but back in the day I used to be relatively active on ClubLexus and other hobby-related forums. I'm glad to see SAU is still around, since with the advent of Facebook and Discord it seems forums aren't what they once were. As a recent new owner of an S1 260RS Stagea, I've found so many older guides and helpful tips from SAU that I figured I needed to join and say a grave thank you. My recent acquisition has only become legal in the US for the past year, and knowing that similar car enthusiasts from across the pond have already figured out the kinks and tricks to get these 25+ year old cars running well. I look forward to diving into more of the SAU forums as well as hopefully contribute some info myself for future posterity.   As a pic tax, here is one of the few good photos I have of my Stagea. I hope to get way more in the future!    
    • Is this where I say "Hey man my airbox cost me horsepower in my Naturally Aspirated Engine"? (I know you need them for legality in NSW)
    • 1.5mm alloy folded up, it will need a tweek, as the angled bend only got to around 45° as that was the max that the break press would get with the other bends, and I needed a fair bit more, but and the alloy is easy to bend too my will by hand once I trim the lower section out I'll Dremel out and form the angle and mounting point on the lower section when time permits  As for the lid, I'm looking at going a "cap", instead of a flat lid to hide the fixtures a bit
