Perhaps a search would have been easier?

Yes, the Nissan replacement ones are shite, grab an aftermarket one as I don't sell them anymore.

Thanks man, just thinking is it ok to get aftermarket one which could directly replace the OEM one? It looks same as OEM one but is it more stronger??

Even if it is the same life they are about 1/4 the price and work fine.

That's true mate. But I want to know if they are stronger than OEM one. I found some AFM on eBay approx $60, but no idea about the quality. Actually I could get cheap 2nd hand OEM one from Japan. So if they is no difference between eBay aftermarket AFM and OEM AFM, I would like to grab OEM one. Any suggestion??

Why buy a second hand one? Search the forum and you will see they are terribly unreliable. As scotty said just buy the new after market ones. No they probably aren't any better, but they are newer and will have more chance of lasting then a crappy second hand one

just got brand new aftermarket 5PIN AFM from ebay. then I did throttle relearn. now the idle rev is 650-700rpm, AFM voltage is about 1.35v-1.37v at idle.

some question here:

1. I feel the car is harder to start engine compare with OEM AFM, whatever the car is cold or warm

2. there is long delay when rev up from idle. it means when you press acc pedal from idle, the OEM boost gauge will go up to about 0PSI first, then rev will go up. also this feeling is compared with OEM AFM.

any suggestion? thanks guys.

    • I'm selling my brand new, in the box, never used Hypergear ATR45 - and I had some additions I paid for a few yrs back when I purchased it. Never ended up having the rest of the money to add all the mods at once, so I just ended up slowly selling each part. I originally had it internally gated, with the dump pipe, however I found it was incompatible with what I was going to use it for, so I contacted (I think Ken) from Hypergear, and he and I messaged back and forth & he got me to ship the turbo back, where they modified it & made it externally gated, and gave me the 5 bolt dump pipe attachment for custom welding. (Photos below) This turbo like I said has never touched the inside of an engine bay, it's completely brand new, never used, been sitting in the same box it arrived in, covered in plastic & all. Below are the photos of it: And while the guys at Hypergear were making it in-shop, they sent me some photos of the process: I'm looking at selling this just because I'm in need of the money right now, and don't have plans on modifying the 34 anytime soon - and from reviews & peformance sheets, this turbo had amazing results back when I was researching. The turbo was purchased in 2018 for $1.9k, with the mods I got added on. Looking at the website now, for the same turbo they sell (ATR45SAT), with the current addons it adds up to $1830 for the turbo Current addons included: - Bolted dump adaptor - Ball bearing CHRA - Braided oil feeding line So I'm looking to possibly sell it for around $1800, with shipping included in that 1.8k, It cost me around $120 to ship - so yeah thought I'd throw it out there and see if anyone was interested in purchasing. Cheers!
