Should take 10 mins to hook a computer up and read the current dtc that is giving u a engine light, I'm sure you could do some ot at work to give you some cash for labour. U are wasting you time when the current code could help you out

Highly recommend cleaning the maf, air filter and changing the fuel filter.

Have you given us a list of modifications yet?

I am guessing you have an aftermarket ecu if you are using a Z32 afm?!?!

There is a DIY tutorial for fixing afm's which requires a soldering iron, a stanley knife and a small amount of common sense.

Correct me if i'm wrong but i'm going to make a few assumptions.

If your car is backfiring, and your running an aftermarket ECU - the logical thing in my opinion is you need to have it tuned instead of running whatever base map you have on it.

Car backfiring as a result of fuel overrun governed by an aftermarket ECU - sticking a z32 on it won't help unless your going to have it tuned.

At a stretch, if you haven't yet tuned it, you could try resetting the PFC via the commander to factory setting?

pull your plugs out a check if there fouled, and inspect your coil packs for cracks, coil pack are extremely common to be faulty. if you have shit spark it will over fuel and backfire. but if you think its the maf you should check TPS & CPS as well

    • It is a kunfine Android screen . Does anyone know the wirering diagram of the fuga ??
    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
