I am still having trouble with something to do with my AFM.

I thought it was the wiring to begin with, but have rewired it and the same problem persists.

Does someone have an AFM hanging around that I can borrow or buy?

Would be much appreciated

:P

edit: And I think it needs to be from a series 1 (green sticker), cause series 1 and series 2 are different from what I've been told.....anyone who knows better, feel free to enlighten me...

no problemo.....thanks anyway, but I have solved the problem.

Figured the AFM was farked anyway so bit the bullet this arvo and pulled it apart.

Turns out the soldered connection from one of the pins (which the plug connects to) to the PCB had broken. Gave them all a dab of solder just to be sure and then siliconed the cover back on and she's as good as gold.

Previously if I moved the AFM at all the car would splutter and eventually stall. Now I can shake the farker like a screaming child (:D ....j/k) and it doesn't miss a beat.

Whacked it all back together and took it for a spin over the bumpiest road I could find and it's all good :D

It's taken a week and a half to finally track down the source of the problem, so I'm pretty stoked atm....just wish I hadn't bastardised the wiring in the first place, cause that could have saved me a lot of heartache to begin with. :D

      RB20DE NEO smallbox clutch.

      So either way it is gearbox out and look what is wrong?  I know about the input shaft bearing. Even before swap/new clutch the it sounded exactly like this: So is that inout shaft bearing or the other was installed backwards?  And can some please tell me the part number for that input shaft bearing? The gearbox is small box from R34 N/A and number is FS5W71C. Thank you

      I am yet to see anyone ever regret a quaife or helical. ...other than drifting/skidpan duties. I kind of want to upgrade my factory helical with a Quaife (but really it's not ultimately that different, and is a MASSIVE UNDERTAKING), that's how good the hype is about them, that I want to try them 'just to see'

      D2 and Ksport are essentially the same thing and basically just generic Taiwanese manufacture. Better than ChinaBay crap, but... not top shelf. Öhlins have got to be some of the best dampers around, so likely to be a good option. It's going to get to the point though where I suggest you buy from Oz. We have at least 2x excellent options here. If I were you though, I'd be talking to KW about doing something for the R33. There's bugger all difference between that and the 32. In GTR land, anyway.

      KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.

      Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.
