Hey Guys,

As most of you know there is a GB going for Z32 AFM`s pretty decent price i might add, and then i noticed someone asked the question wether you need a full stand alone ecu. The person running the GB then answered saying yes you will need a stand alon ecu.

I was under the imppression that you could use piggy back system.

So my question is will i need a Full Stand Alone ECU to run a Z32 AFM on my car?

Now im pretty sure that Tangles has a Z32 afm on his stag so if you could please help me out that would be great.

Cheers Simon

Z32 afm all wired up - running a SAFCII.

Yes, I do believe you'll need an "aftermarket ecu" such as a piggyback unit, however this *may not be the case and you may be able to use a z32afm with the standard ecu (probably hit R&R tho)..... Im sure more experienced pro's in the forced inductiuon section might be able to shed some further light on this, tho.

flysly, if you are using the standard turbo, i doubt you will run out of resolution on the standard AFM. also i noticed you have a sard FPR which also shouldn't be necessary until you upgrade the turbo and need to squeeze a little extra flow out of the standard injectors.

you can probably save a few $$'s there alone with no loss in performance.

Im using the high flow turbo, and im wanting around 220awkw,

I figure there is no point me passing up good products for good prices when im going to need them in the end anyway.

But thanks for the advice.

Im not running the sard fpr yet but i will be

I did - was maxxing the afm at the 140awkw tune, although that was when I only had a catback system so that might have ahd something to do with it. changed to a z32 afm when I had the full zaust put on, fmic, fuelpump, and the sitc tuned.

I recieved my Z32 during the week, i will be hitting the dyno just for fun next sat to see what she will pull with the: Hi-Flow Turbo, FMIC, 3" Turbo back exhaust and High Flow Apexi Panel Filter, standard boost.

After that i will start bolting everything else on i have, but im finding it very bloody hard to find an SITC.

Damn that is cheap, oh well still sounds like a got it at a reasonable price.

And considering that they are near impossible to get, ive been searching ebay ever since i got my stag and have only seen one other on there for sale.

    • I am being real ocd and do not want to make amy mistakes so appreciate all help provided. I am overly cautious so asking for opinion even if i know the answer   few questions,   1.re tensioner, should spring be greased lightly?    2.tensioner has two washers , one pressure washer and other has recessed/ seat. I am going to put the recessed one facing tensioner where edges are cut out and pressure washer on top   3. my car has custom triger kit sold few years ago by guy who initially built the engine. I moved the crank gear and it moved in and out easy, only way to remove belt is to slide the crankshaft gear forward which I did. I have seen these being very tough to move , anything to do with my woodruff key?   it has a crank sensor shown in purple which I assume reads from the 12 teeth position mounted to the crankcase gear   4. timing belt doesn’t have arrow stating front or back just a arrow which I think is direction of rotation . Do you agree?   5.i figured out why my crankcase cover was worn as there was no washer installed over the crankcase cover before the harmonic balancer was put in place. It is missing, anyone knows the part number? It looks like this https://justjap.com/products/genuine-nissan-crankshaft-timing-gear-rear-plate-washer-nissan-s13-ca18-a31-r32-rb20-r33-r34-c33-c34-c35-rb25?currency=USD   https://tinypic.host/image/IMG-4535.382Zy2 https://tinypic.host/image/IMG-4537.382dSz https://tinypic.host/image/IMG-4534.382q4U  
    • CTIS (Central Tire Inflation System) has existed since the 80's. I'm looking into buying a Hummer H1 and they generally included it. 
    • My idle is set at 950rpm though - Moving the timing around 20 degrees is not really what I'd call a calm idle. That said... neither is chop, by definition. The LS ECU likes to adjust timing to hold idle as opposed to air. It'd work, but generally speaking there'd be a discrepancy in the base idle and the IACV would want to move the timing around anyway to maintain said idle. I think I'm just going to keep the timing steady anyway. Preserve my engine mounts.  My aircon is now officially regassed. As the guy was reversing I noticed my reverse lights do not operate, along with my reverse cam. This is a bit distressing, because 100% of guides talk about which wire to connect to backup cams as "the goes with the [other color] wire". Often when doing conversions. Unfortunately the R34 colour wires aren't documented Unfortunately I had a T56 Magnum gearbox with it's reverse switch, which also isn't documented. Unfortunately there's definitely not documentation for people with both of these in the one car. Unfortunately I forgot. After many hours of this, I have a reverse cam and reverse lights again. The wire going through the trans tunnel to the reverse switch had broken. Upon inspection, it looks like this one wire had about 7 spade terminals and extensions in it.. for reasons I cannot possibly comprehend. I also spent the 750 hours required to clean up the wiring behind my head unit which now looks like this: This is a monumental improvement relative to what used to be there WRT triple gauges, head unit, traction control, wideband controller, and whatever the f**k OEM stuff still exists there in various states of connectivity/needed. Next step is to check in at the Exhaust shop to see/confirm how much clearance I have, to decide what mid mufflers or 'resonators' (which are just straight through, narrower mufflers) I can add and hopefully cut out a lot of exhaust leaks, pinhole, v-band or otherwise. But first step will be to 'take a look' before the next step.
    • Fark the AFM card and Nistune, Haltech Nexus S3, DBW, cruise control, flex fuel, dis dat.  
    • It's most likely the bolt/bush where the cover bolts back wore and allowed cover to move forward.
