I have installed my nismo AFM's, an d now, unfortunately I cannot drive (or start) the car, because the AFM's are a fair bit different compared to the stock afm's

Does anyone know the values I need to enter into the pfc to adjust the afm settings so that i can at least drive it to the workshop ?

Cheers

Tommy

I cannot choose that option ?

I have 5 options on the screen, but I cannot individually select one of them. Perhaps I am doing something wrong? How do I choose the vg30 option?

I'm guessing that the reason for this is that is because my tuner has completely locked out my screens. Thats why im very shitty. The only thing I can do, is edit the voltage %'s. But I dont really know what to add

Its a strange way the pfc uses to select the afm you want.

Simply enter the Airflow menu and highlight the one you want using the up/down keys.

Then simply press back to return to the main menu and that afm will be selected.

Just to note though I am able to start and drive my car on any of the afm selections, allthough they don't run it that well but it still runs. :D

Yep..your tuner locked the handcontroller.

I can however edit the %'s next to them

BUT i dont know exactly what to add ?

read what cubes posted again. go in to the AFM option screen. highlight the VG30 option then hit back. you will now have selected that option. Like a said in the first post the car will run and drive but it will need to be tuned as it won't be safe (or any fun) to thrash it.

I dont think so

I mean i can move the cursor over it, and then back out

But when i go to start the car, it starts idles for a bit and then dies

I think i am going to have to install the old afm's

in that case have the AFMs been installed correctly? do the nismo ones use a stock plug or do they need to be wired up like a Z32? this was a problem on a friends car the other day we had. installed Z32, selected VG30 option car idled, then died. turned out it was a wiring problem.

Nismo afm's are bolt ons

I dont think I did anything wrong ?

I just think that the display is locked out and its using the right option.

I am going to reinstall the old afm's and go from there :)

The engine won't run with the NISMO AFMs on the VG30 setting. You need to add a bit of fuel at idle.

ok.

Go in to the airflow menu select option 5 or the very bottom option.

Press back.

Now go back in to the airflow menu and if the option 5 is still highlighted then the menu is definitely not locked out.

It was my understanding if the airflow menu is locked you can't even get in there. :)

    • Even more fun, leave all the ADAS stuff plugged in, but in different locations, hopefully avoid any codes!   And honestly, all these new cars with their weird electronics. Pull all the electronics out Duncan, and just shove an aftermarket ECU and if needed a trans controller in, along with a PDM. Make it run basic but race car styled!
    • To follow up a question from earlier too since I had the front bar off again (fking!) This is what is between the bumper and the drivers side wheel And this is the navigator side, only one thing but its a biggy! So basically....no putting coolers in the wheel arches without a lot of moving other stuff. Assuming I move to properly race prepping this car I'll take that job on and see how the computers respond to removing a whole bunch of ADAS modules
    • So I prepped the car for another track day on Wednesday (will be interesting to see coolant temps post flushing out and the larger reservoir, with a forecast of 3-14 being 20o cooler than last time I took it out). Couple of things to mention; since I am just driving the car and not taking a support vehicle, I took the rear seats out and just loaded the back up Team Trackday style. Look at all that space! To cover off removing the rear seat....it is weird (note the hybrid is probably different because it wouldn't have folding rear seats) Basically, you remove the lower seat base, very similar to a r series but it is a clip that pulls forward to release the base rather than it being bolted down. Easy Then, you need to remove the side section of the rear seat on each side. There is a 14mm head nut at the bottom of the side piece, the it slides upwards off a hook at the top to release; you also need to unhook the seatbelt from the loop at the top. Then the centre piece is weird. You need to release/fold the seats forward with the tab in the boot on each side From there, there are 2,x12mm headed bolts holding the rear of each seat to the folding bracket, under the trim between the rear seat and the boot (4x christmas tree clips there, they suck). The seat is out but you can see where the bolts attach to the bracket
    • As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year. 
    • I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
