hey my Z32 afm is maxing out at around 250rwhp. now i no this is a long way from what it shoulg be. i was told that a hole heap of Z32 afm where released faulty by some one and that i prolly have a faulty one.. if it is maxing out so early it does sound faulty in some way or is it just dirty... is this a possible reason my car is making fairly low power with its best a 247hp at 1bar with pfc ebc splitfires fuel pump full zorst fmic.

also how many tuning shops should it take to notice this as a problem.. ive been to 2 and no one said anything so far

What is the last number on the sticker on the MAF, is it J70, cos they are std ones?

Yeah also check the sticker to make sure its a Z32 AFM, that would get you off to an easy start.

Also Z32 is larger in diameter to standard, so a bit of alteration in the piping would have had to have occurred when installed?

Ok, ......

What Engine is it?

What mods have been done to the motor?

When they installed it, did they adjust the PFC to suit?

With the motor NOT running, what does the "Sensor" page on the PFC commander say it is reading?

What is the last number on the orange/red sticker read, it should start with a "J"?

You have to remember there is a WHOLE LOT of adjustments to be made to the PFC when you change from standard to the Z32. It isn't just a "Bolt-On instant power device".

    • I might have to shoot them an email. Pity the exchange rate is so bad at the moment. BTW, thanks for posting that table makes interesting reading. 
    • Add these Sensors -Wideband, Oil Pressure, Fuel pressure, Intake air temp Good inspection of ignition system of coils, plugs and loom (12v feed and good ground)- a r35 kit is best bang for buck upgrade. A decent tuner should be able to see any issues with the trigger system- a link has good filtering but a good simple upgrade is the nz wiring bolt in kit. Check and replace all the fuel filters- you would be surprised at intank filter after a few years. Also good to check for any leaks on vac hoses and pipe work as has been said. No need to go overboard and spend big $$$ to enjoy the car. A quality tuner is getting harder to find as anyone with a laptop thinks they are a tuner. A link has great features to check sensor voltages and frequency inputs and easy to see live by pressing f12. The link can do a TPS & RPM fuel/ignition mapping on ITB cars then add a 4D table with MAP and ability to add a 5D to it (can help with economy at cruise with wheel speed vs TPS) Where are you located as that will help narrow down a good tuner ?
    • Reviving an old thread, I reckon my stagea is starting to slip. Car usually gets parked on a hill, narrow driveway so cant go up the driveway smoothly, anyhows, lately first gear feels "sluggish"? Not responsive. Feels like I gotta run the engine more than usual to get off the line...  Any recommendations for transmission servicing in Sydney? Or possibly just an excuse to go manual ?
    • Well, moulded carpets should fit well if the buck they use is the right shape. The finish is then just a case of stiching the trim around the edges. Shuoldn't be too hard to get it right. Back in the day, replacement carpets were all "fitted", in that they were stitched together, with cuts and slices taken out to make them form the shapes. Many more opportunities to get it wrong, hence all the concern over good vendors and bad vendors.
