In need of a new AFM soon (upgrading cefiro loom, ecu etc with r32 components, long story.....) and curious if the Z32 AFM will work with a standard r32 rb20det ecu? i'm guessing it may run a little more rich but other then that should it idle, run just like normal? (would prefer upgrading now to the z32 while i need a AFM rather then later buying another one when i upgrade ecu)

Btw i've done a few searches but with no luck...

purple one is the standard cefiro AFM, and due to me soon using a r32 cpu, ignition module etc (which are different) i'd prefer to use the green label one over the purple one. If that makes sense. And don't ask why i'm changing ecu's, its a long story.

no point going z32 afm. it's more expensive than rb20det afm.. I didn't know cefiro's had different ones. anyway, stock afm from an r32 gtst or an r33 gtst should be around $100 from wreckers (green label)

z32 are same size as rb20det but have more resolution. If you actually *need* the extra resolution, ie u have enough power that u are running out of res. you would probably already have an aftermarket ecu and aftermarket injectors anyway...

I have an rb20det afm if you need one to test it. It works fine, just occasionally (like maybe every 10 times I drive the car) the idle plays up a bit. U can have it for $30 if you just need something to test with. PM me if interested in in bentleigh, vic.

$100? HAH I just got quoted $330 for a stock afm from TNH pfft

Maybe thats just caus I'm a chick and they think I don't know better? I don't know but I hope noone would be stupid enough to pay $330.

Merlin you don't happen to have a working one do you?

no, this one works fine, just this intermittant problem every now and then. But for testing purposes it's fine. Though, I replace it because it was causing that problem.

Kaz, i'd recommend going to a different wreckers from now on <_<

    • Look for broken wire or bad connector at the motor. Might not be it, but is worth starting there, as it is easy.
    • Hi everyone, I’m having an issue with my R32 GT-R. Sometimes, when the car goes over a bump or experiences some vibration, the 4WD warning light comes on the dashboard. When I check the code from the control unit in the trunk, it shows Code 19 – ETS Motor. However, everything seems to be working fine — if I turn off the engine and restart the car, the light goes away and everything functions normally. Has anyone experienced this before? Where should I start troubleshooting this issue? Thanks in advance!
    • I'm back from the dyno - again! I went looking for someone who knew LS's and had a roller dyno, to see how it shaped up compared to everything else and confirm the powerband really is peaking where Mr Mamo says it should. TLDR: The dyno result I got this time definitely had the shape of how it feels on the road and finally 'makes sense'. Also we had a bit more time to play with timing on the dyno, it turns out the common practice in LS is to lower the timing around peak torque and restore it to max after. So given a car was on the dyno and mostly dialled in already, it was time for tweaking. Luis at APS is definitely knowledgable when it came to this and had overlays ready to go and was happy to share. If you map out your cylinder airmass you start seeing graphs that look a LOT like the engine's torque curve. The good thing also is if you map out your timing curve when you're avoiding knock... this curve very much looks like the inverse of the airmass curve. The result? Well it's another 10.7kw/14hp kw from where I drove it in at. Pretty much everywhere, too. As to how much this car actually makes in Hub Dyno numbers, American Dyno numbers, or Mainline dyno numbers, I say I don't know and it's gone up ~25kw since I started tinkering lol. It IS interesting how the shorter ratio gears I have aren't scaled right on this dyno - 6840RPM is 199KMH, not 175KMH. I have also seen other printouts here with cars with less mods at much higher "kmh" for their RPM due Commodores having 3.45's or longer (!) rear diff ratios maxing out 4th gear which is the 1:1 gear on the T56. Does this matter? No, not really. The real answer is go to the strip and see what it traps, but: I guess I should have gone last Sunday...
    • 310mm rotors will be avilable from Australia, Japan, and probably a few other places. Nothing for the front can be put on the back.
    • The filter only filters down to a specific size. Add to that, the filter is AFTER the pump. So it means everything starts breaking your pump even if its being filtered out.
