Yes i do. Lol. But i also have lots of cars. This is for my gts4 that i just brought back from the dead. Im running small 550 injectors and using a power fc. I know to make about 500hp using no dyno, but on my other gtrs im aiming for way more than 500hp. But on this car (gts4) i just was wondering if i need to use z32 afm for 22 psi. Thats my goal. Ive done 25 psi on rb25 wit z32 afm and the motor still going to this day. Just need to know if the twin stock r32 afm will handle 22 psi.

Max psi? 10000000000

Air FLOW meters measure flow not pressure. They can read 'x' amount of flow. Need to know what turbos are being used

This is why AFM's are usually talked about in terms of how much power they will handle as air flow is pretty much directly proportional to power. The more air you get in the engine, the more power you can achieve etc etc

The motor is freshly built. All stock other than oil mods and acl race bearings, mls head gasket. I did it all with spare parts around the yard. Doesnt mean i just want to just blow it up. Lol. I will tho. Kml. Im sure ill figure it all out tho mate. Worst case is ill just run twin z32. But was wondering as i have like 12 oem afm for gtr's. Oh internal parts are all new. Not old. :D

Courtesy Paulr33's website:

Rule of thumb for Air Flow meters RWKW (you will note a single RB25 AFM will measure more than a single GTR AFM)

AFM Max Power at 5v Single RB25 AFM 225rwkw

Single Z32 AFM 350rwkw

Single Q45 AFM 300rwkw

Twin RB26 AFMs 300rwkw

Twin RB25 AFMs 450rwkw

Twin Z32 AFMs 511rwkw

Twin Q45 AFMs 600rwkw

Thanks for that mate. These are in rwkw. Simple conversation. Looks like twin r32 afm will max out but could work, but at there limit. Hmmm. Funny to see that a singal z32 is at 350 figure twin would be at 700 but its at 511 in twin set up. And twin q45 is at 600. Is this wright????

twin rb25 is great for resolution.

twin z32 are generally over kill (unless needed) and in many setups you end up using only 1/2 to 3/4 of the scale and lose tune resolution.

i would much rather the AFM scale be @ 90% max than at 50% max

I started to look at the flow charts for the holset and a gtx35r. Looks like there will be about 15 to 20 LB/Minute difference from about 22 psi.

Im trying to compare it to my r33 gtr thats running twin z32 afm with gtx3582r turbo.

Damn i wish i had a better turbo laying around. :(

Yeah there is actually.

Series one is a 4 pin while series 2 is a 3 pin pink label.

I think Nistune has it listed for an extra 20 HP or so

So the R33GTST S2 has the pink label, and the S1 has the green label, which is also used by the RB20DET and RB25De, just for clarity.

    • Ok i will get those 310mm. I found one but on a different site. This is the description on those...is it ok? Technical parameters: - Axle: front. - Disc type: ventilated. - Number of holes: 5. - Disc diameter: 310mm. - Total height with center: 54mm. - Thickness (new/min.): 30/28mm. - Designed for brake calipers manufacturer: Sumitomo.
    • You Gregged a whole racetrack!?
    • Look for broken wire or bad connector at the motor. Might not be it, but is worth starting there, as it is easy.
    • Hi everyone, I’m having an issue with my R32 GT-R. Sometimes, when the car goes over a bump or experiences some vibration, the 4WD warning light comes on the dashboard. When I check the code from the control unit in the trunk, it shows Code 19 – ETS Motor. However, everything seems to be working fine — if I turn off the engine and restart the car, the light goes away and everything functions normally. Has anyone experienced this before? Where should I start troubleshooting this issue? Thanks in advance!
    • I'm back from the dyno - again! I went looking for someone who knew LS's and had a roller dyno, to see how it shaped up compared to everything else and confirm the powerband really is peaking where Mr Mamo says it should. TLDR: The dyno result I got this time definitely had the shape of how it feels on the road and finally 'makes sense'. Also we had a bit more time to play with timing on the dyno, it turns out the common practice in LS is to lower the timing around peak torque and restore it to max after. So given a car was on the dyno and mostly dialled in already, it was time for tweaking. Luis at APS is definitely knowledgable when it came to this and had overlays ready to go and was happy to share. If you map out your cylinder airmass you start seeing graphs that look a LOT like the engine's torque curve. The good thing also is if you map out your timing curve when you're avoiding knock... this curve very much looks like the inverse of the airmass curve. The result? Well it's another 10.7kw/14hp kw from where I drove it in at. Pretty much everywhere, too. As to how much this car actually makes in Hub Dyno numbers, American Dyno numbers, or Mainline dyno numbers, I say I don't know and it's gone up ~25kw since I started tinkering lol. It IS interesting how the shorter ratio gears I have aren't scaled right on this dyno - 6840RPM is 199KMH, not 175KMH. I have also seen other printouts here with cars with less mods at much higher "kmh" for their RPM due Commodores having 3.45's or longer (!) rear diff ratios maxing out 4th gear which is the 1:1 gear on the T56. Does this matter? No, not really. The real answer is go to the strip and see what it traps, but: I guess I should have gone last Sunday...
