Just curious about AFM options for an RB30-DET. Leaning towards running a GT30 turbs, on about 18-20psi, using a PowerFC to tune it all. Just wondering if I would be better off runing a Q45 AFM, or twin Z32 or RB20's?

Can the PowerFC run two AFM's at once?

BEFORE YOU BUY THE Q45.......

Interesting thread guys. I am just about to tune my freshly built RB25/30 and am going to find out how much my z32 afm will support with the current set-up! Matt Loweth, an owner of an rb25/30 (for sale at the mo) on this forum has made around 340ish rwkw with a z32 afm. Correct me if I’m wrong, but its limits can differ depending on how "efficient" the engine is if you get my meaning. Matt does have gtr cams, which may help with this efficiency....food for thought..

You can use either the z32 or the Q45. The Q45 just has more resolution to tune with if you start talking big numbers....ie over 350rwkw i would use it.

They both cost around the same, just one has more head room for later on. I bought the Q45 because it cost the same as the z32's at the time, and i knew id be going for around 350rwkw....

      S15 Spec R

      By RP1421 · Posted

      It's been a little over a decade since I bought the S15. As I did on my socials, I'll share some of my favorite pictures from over the years further below. If you haven't realised, pretty much all the pictures in my posts are ones I've taken.  In terms of updates, I don't have pictures, but I acquired a near-perfect pair of fog lights from a friend of mine, so those got swapped in for the pair I already had. As for the JZX110, I just got it back from being fixed. A few weeks back, I was on the highway when I suddenly drove over something with very little time to react. It was probably the size of a soccer ball, but it went under the car and banged into the underside pretty loudly. I pulled over and realized the fluid leaking was fuel, and of course, it was right near my exhaust. This required replacing the fuel tank. If you happen to be in the same predicament, thankfully this car shares a fuel tank with the JZS171, IS200, and IS300, so it wasn't too painful to replace. Enjoy some pictures as mentioned above, including the carnage from the fuel tank and a bonus picture I came across which shows how ridiculously shiny the Bugels are on the 110. So many more pictures I could share of the S15 but this will do for today, enjoy.
