So of course my stagea has to give me the shits while my other car is getting work done >.<

driving home today stopped at a light and when i took off again the car went about 10m then lost all revs so i pulled over, i have gathered its gone into limp mode and narrowed it down to a dead MAF!

The big question does anyone know where i can get a replacement in the northern suburbs melbourne? any help greatly appreciated.

I used to sell them but ran out of stock. Try the part number in Ebay, there are heaps of aftermarket ones available that won't bugger up like the Nissan ones commonly do.

I am trying to find the reason the AFM faults, it's likely caused by low voltage I suspect. Have you popped the bung out of the battery compartment by any chance? That's where I would start. The large 2 inch bung gets blocked flooding the relay box causing all sorts of issues. Not sure if the AFM is related to this as yet, but it looks like it may be, at least you will have fixed a source of many other electrically related failures.

What's your factory part number? It may well fit but they don't know so they say it doesn't to cover themselves.

Here's another one I found - does the factory number it quotes match yours?

Maybe the high voltage? I saw the voltage reach over 5v if run in height boost.

the part number on the one i linked matches but that trademe one is different. I found one on ebay just before that someone else used in an m35 so ordered it :) hopefully it works

I bought 2 from eBay but all shit! One is dead after ran 10km. another one is still alive but the voltage is not same as stock one...so I can't use it. Finally I bought genuine one from Nissan with bloody price...so far so good for about 1000km

Sorry to hear Yang, it did take me a while to find a suitable supplier for the aftermarket AFM's I used to sell. Amayama would have been a better option for genuine, but the shipping times from UAE aren't as good as the local Nissan dealership.

You are looking at the output voltage, not the input which is 12v. The AFM's have a processor inside which would likely fault if the voltage dropped too much, and the water in the battery compartment would be the obvious cause. A lot of us have had AFM's fail after or during rain too. Not saying it's definitely the cause of AFM issues, but it most certainly creates many other electrical issues. Pop that bung out before it leaves you stranded, it serves no purpose other than to keep dust out of there.

Mines been playing up and im about to grab a new one. If after genuine amayama have australian stock 22680-6n21a for $110 + postage.. if you look up the original number the price is 5x that for some reason.. the replacement number above looks to have been used by people on here with sucess by searching the forum. if in more of a rush justjap have genuine stock for a few dollars more but still cheaper than half of the ones on fleabay...

Not really, the new Nissan PN just fails constantly, some of my customers went through 7 or more before fitting my aftermarket ones. Mine were lasting fine.

The original PN works very well, 15 years nearly in my case.

    • Yeah i found that alot of parts can be wrong or "very" hard to get the real right one. I already bought some brakes years ago on me "old" GT calipers and they were wrong too 😄  I told them too. Even send them pictures...but they said "EBC catalogue has them on my car... So i dont know what their answer will be. I call monday them and let them know that they are really not on my car. If they were they would be already on a car...
    • Welcome to Skyline ownership. Yes, it is entirely possible parts websites get things wrong. There's a whole world of inaccuracies out there when it comes to R34 stuff (and probably 33 and 32). Lots of things that are 'just bolt on, entirely interchangable' aren't. Even between S1 and S2 R34's. Yes they have a GTT item supposedly being 296mm. This is incorrect. I would call whoever you got them from and return them and let them know the GTT actually uses 310mm rotors. Depending on where you got them from your experience and success will obviously vary.
    • Hi...a bit a "development" on the brakes. I spoke to the guys where i get brakes from...and they are saying that 296mm EBC are for R34 GT-T. I then went to their site: https://www.ebcbrakes.com/vehicle/uk-row/NISSAN/Skyline (R34)/ and search for my car(R34 GT 1998 - it has GTT brakes) and it show me this USR1229 number and they are rly 296mm rotors... So now iam rly confused... The rotors i have now on the car are 310mm asi shown... So where is the problem? Does the whole EBC got it wrong or my calipers are just...idk know what?  
    • Oh What the hell, I used to get a "are you sure you want to reply, this thread is XX months old" message. Maybe a software update remove that. My bad.
    • This is a recipe for disaster* Note: Disaster is relative. The thing that often gets lost in threads like this is what is considered acceptable poke and compromise between what one person considers 'good' looks and what someone else does. The quoted specs would sit absurdly outside the guards with the spacers mentioned and need  REALLY thin tyres and a LOT of camber AND rolling the guards to fit. Some people love this. Some people consider this a ruined car. One thing is for certain though, rolling the guards is pretty much mandatory for any 'good' fitment (of either variety). It is often the difference between any fitment remotely close to the guards. "Not to mention the rears were like a mm from hitting the coilovers." I have a question though - This spec is VERY close to what I was planning to buy relative to the inboard suspension - I have an offset measuring tool on the way to confirm it. When you say "like a mm" do you mean literally 1mm? Or 2mm? Cause that's enough clearance for me in the rear :p I actually found the more limiting factor ISNT the coilover but the actual suspension arms. Did you take a look at how close those were?
