I've just done a full engine rebuild on my R32 GTR (almost run in now) and I'm planning on taking it to the next level. I have the following bits ready to install

PCF + HC

Tomei Adj CAM gears in/out

HKS 550cc injectors

I've just picked up a pair of RB25 AFMs (herd they were a cheap upgrade) and I was wondering if ....

the PFC has a setting for these

can I swap them for the std AFMs before fitting the PFC

Anyone know where I can get a piping kit for these to suit my GTR - I have pods (Ms I think) can I keep those and just swap the pipe between the pod filter and the AFM

will I also need to swap out the hose between the AFM and the turbo (flexible ?)

Yes the power fc has a setting for the rb25 afm's. i highly doubt that you would be able to buy a bolt on intake kit to suit though, you will probably have to get something made up and there is no reason why you couldnt use your current pods but due to the larger diameter of the afm's they probably wouldnt be big enough. As for fitting them before the power fc, i dont think it would be overly wise due to the standard computer not being tuned to suit, i personally would wait untill i got the ecu in. Ive heard that the rb25 afm isnt all that good on a rb26 due to the fact that they cant hanlde as much air up in the higher revs and the calibration is slightly different. I personally would (and have) opt for a pair of z32 afm's. I hope that helps you out a little.

I dont believe the stock ecu will support them. If you have the new powerfc, then option 4 under airflow setting lets you use twin rb25 afms. Im not sure what the value is for the older powerfc (as in the one that came seperate with the hand controller).

The newer powerfc supports:

Option 1: BNR33 Normal

Option 2: BNR32 Normal

Option 3: Power Intake

Option 4: 80(squiggle O) RB25 Air-F (twin rb25 afms)

Option 5: 80(squiggle O) VG30 Air-F (twin z32s afms)

Rule of thumb for Air Flow meters RWKW & Engine BHP

------ ---- OD ---- RWKW ---- RWKW ---- BHP ------ BHP

No of AFM's ---- ------- 1 -------- 2 -------- 1 -------- 2

RB26 ------ 65 ------ 149 ------ 299 ------ 271 ------ 474

RB20/25 --- 80 ------ 226 ------ 453 ------ 376 ------ 683

Z32 ------- 80 ------ 255 ------ 511 ------ 415 ------ 763

Q45 ------- 90 ------ 302 ------ 605 ------ 479 ------ 890

rb25 afm's on mine with the PFC and 2530's . Car did run with rb25 afm's straight up but not well and was tilt trayed to the tuner . If your only looking for 300rwkw then they will have plently of headroom . pnblight on these forums only maxed his out at close to 500rwhp on his 33 GTR .

very good work - RB25's will be fine for me - target is only 280-300rwkw

Mate, I managed to get 297rwkw with my standard GT-R a/f meters, I have RB25 a/f as well but could not put them on yet because of the same reason you do i.e. piping and pods do not fit.

    • I thought I'd come back and add something I JUST learned. A Toyota LandCruiser with a 1HZ, mates perfectly with a bottle of Nulon brake fluid. As in, it perfectly screws in. Great make shift funnel when you cut the bottom of it off. This may work for your Corolla.   Unfortunately, tipping a 10L drum is much harder than a 4 to 6L bottle, and they no longer include the easy pour tap which was just perfection to use previously.  
    • Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?
    • You can use your VIN to look up the factory part number somewhere like amayama, and then look to order new if necessary. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/nissan Depending on price you might want to rebuild instead. @GTSBoy I had an interesting insight into US market parts when the Titan rear calipers were sticking. New calipers were dirt cheap, about 20% more than a rebuild kit....they are just considered throw away maintenance items
    • Funny, but really not funny. Thank god (most) f the world has moved on since then
    • Lots of votes for driving onto a plank first; that is the quickest way I've found, 25mm is enough for my case but that will vary by car It also depends where you are going for. On the 32 I can get to the rear diff with my floor jack if I do that end first, and get it up on stands. Then I lift the front from either front tow hook as high as needed, also onto stands. Sometimes I need a small lift on the other tow hook to get it level enough If I do the front first I can't get to the rear diff because of the angle of the car Other options are getting to the front mount of the rear subframe from in front of the wheel (if only lifting one side, or just do both which is a bit of a pain compared to one lift from the diff), or also the gearbox cross member mount on the driver's side if you are  just trying to lift the driver's side. I This is the jack I use; it says 75mm clearance but of course that is only on the lower section so if you have to reach too far in like the diff you still get stuck. https://www.snapon-bluepoint.com.sg/category/Floor-Jacks/product/Floor-Jack,-2-Ton-Low-Profile
