Fitting Afm

[R3sp3ct]

Hey guys,

I've recently brought a Z32 AFM and i'm wondering if anyone has fitted one of these and if i should know anything before attempting it myself.

Cheers

You need to rewire the plug that connects it to the wiring loom, or buy a plug adaptor that some import joints sell

Yeah ive got the tomi plug or whatever it is.

Is just the AFM your replacing. As said there is the wiring change it appears you have caterd for that.

Do you have an after market ECU that caters for the AFM being changed? (Power FC etc..)

Are you changing from an air box to a POD. If so do you have the brackets and extension pipe also?

Relatively easy.

Yep i have the power fc, i thought i was replacing the standard afm wit hthe Z32, so whats this pipping i need?

[Sinista32]

Your Power FC caters for the change in AFM's as one of the menu options.

Small extension pipe is only required if your changing from a an air box to a pod filter. Some do this when changing AFM's. As the Z32 AFM is a different size to your existing AFM the plumbing needs to different.

I bought an Apexi kit so all I needed came in the box. POD's, ruber Plumbing including ext pipes, wiring, brackets.

I'd guess your pod wont fit if you insert the Z32 due to size difference. That applies to a GTR. Cant be absolutely cert for a 33.

As you say - suck it an see. 5 minutes max to get an answer.

Good name change too.

R33 series II and Z32 are the same size 80mm. You should be able to just throw the old one over the shoulder and insert the new one without even looking up...........too easy.

As far as I know they are pretty much a direct replacement. But you will need to hook the four wires up in correct sequence. Let me know if you need a wire code over each one and I'll look at mine.

[R3sp3ct]

Mate i think its best if you give me the code now, save me using trial and error ill be able to get it first time.

[tridentt150v]

I didn't read this till i got to work, I'll look and let you know.

My wires at the Z32 are all black, but across the top there is [from memory] 6 positions marked A,B,C,D,E,F and they join [from memory], black earth, a white/blue, a black/white, and another one I can't remember. Positions A and F are vacant. Please don't use this because none of it is in order, it IS NOT THE CODE. I'll check and get back to you as I've said.

[R3sp3ct]

No worries

[tridentt150v]

Try this:

B - Orange/Blue trace

C - Earth

D - White/Blue trace

E - Black/white trace

looking at back of the plug [so pod is on your left and trubo on your right] B is the first wire out, and E is the fourth wire out.

I will look into that when i get home thanks mate.

My bad - know mine were 65mm. 33's got it easy then.
