Thats weird about the AFM, I was under the impression they flowed well and only really need changing when going for big power as the tuning resolution is a better with a Z32 item. Mine's only running about 180@wheels anyway, and I need to get the sus/chassis sorted before I need anymore :(

Mine was maxed a little over 180rwkw as well as another mates.

Perfectly normal. You can tune them up to around 220rwkw odd but its a fairly rough tune. Essentially when the afm max's out you push in enough fuel at that load point to handle the boost being run. So what occurs is say its tuned for 15psi but the afm max's out at 12psi when it hits 12psi it runs the ignition timing and enough fuel for 15psi so not optimal.

But really you never try (thats if you were good enough to be able to do it) to hold 12psi at part throttle with the afm only just maxing out so usually it goes unnoticed. :(

The Z32 allows for a fair bit more scope. Mine went from maxing the std afm out to ~4.2-4.3v on the Z32. Then ~268rwkw was ~4.7volts and now 302rwkw is high 4.9volts on occasions flat 5volts on those cold nights. So nearing its limits again. :S

    • Not specifically the revamp Toyos. In the past I've used Nitto NT01s, which were essentially the same compound as R888 with a different pattern (that's what the internetz said, so just be facts). I did like the NT01, progressive fade, didn't go from grip to 0 grip in a split second. If you look at the serious street/track guys, most are either on Cup 2, A052, A050, AD09, CR-S or AR-1.  
    • I have one of these! It is absolutely useless. It provides not nearly enough force on the bolt, it just slips over anything that is not finger tight. And if it's finger tight, you can use your fingers.
    • You have to take photos of the car in Victoria with a timestamp. So if you have big aftermarket turbo in your engine bay, your car is simply not getting a RWC and you'll be doing a lot of returning to stock, and re-modding after about 90 days (because cars that have had a RWC can be audited after the fact). The law I'm kinda ambivalent about. I can see the logic and the writing on the wall, Cobb etc would be well known for selling to 'wink wink off the street usage' but in the real world everyone knows what they do and where they end up. It'd be like someone selling guns in Australia but "only to people who have a proper licence" but selling them outside of Bunnings instead of sausages to anybody. Like RWC's, and VASS's and EPA, this is enforcement of the actual existing rules. I haven't looked into it but there (should) be a way for people to legally pass their tuned car to be within the rules if they can prove they pass emissions laws that are applicable. If there's not then that's another story.
    • Interesting post(haven't watched the vid). I'm surprised companies can be fined for selling products that are specifically meant for certain applications.  How can you force a customer to use or apply your products in 100% the way intended? People have been misusing products since they were invented. Heck, I ate dessert last night with a soup spoon. Does that mean the spoon manufacturer could be fined? And what of the customers who actually want to use the product for its intended use?   I'm sure we could discuss and debate this for a while, but this is an introduction thread and I dont mean to take over it.
