Z32 afm, worth putting on?

[itsallgood]

just wanted to find out if this is worth putting on my R32 gtst. Have seen write ups about it in HPI saying its pretty good but do i need an SAFC or new computer to take full advantage of it?

Do a search for "Z32". this has been posted about many times before. Unless you're going for big, big power, (400hp+) spend your dosh elsewhere. IMHO you should check out rev210's sticky threads in the performance section if you want to get the most from your Skyline.

The Z32 is an excellent upgrade if you are maxxing out your standard air flow meter (ie: 5 volts)

I have done this upgrade on several R32 GTSt's that have had turbo upgrades. One car was maxxing the stock AFM at around 5000 rpm on low boost.

If you max out your AFM it means the ECU has no idea how much air it's getting, so as a precaution it just dumps in loads of fuel.

The factory ECU in R32's are easily modified, and I have some excellent maps for the z32 upgrade.

My old R32 is now running around 200 rwkw from the RB20 with a high flowed turbo, FMIC, 3" Exhaust and pod filter.

Feel free to call on 0411 878 961 if you'd like to discuss it further.

Yes. More than that you need one to use it. It still gives 0 - 5VDC, but the 5V is a high flow. Putting it in without something to rescale it would mean your ECU thinking there was lower flow that what you are getting. Bad
