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

    • I don't know how this is even possible. I removed the strut to do some work (it came out fine, and keeping in mind that I didn't put things back in the same order, but did this on purpose because I was supposed to remove the strut originally instead I tried to remove other shit first which made things a head ache) but now the problem is that it won't go back in. The alignment between where the bolt hole for the strut is and the j arm where the strut slides onto is way off, about a 10cm difference or more. In order to make it fit I'd somehow need to push it up. I tried to compress it with a spring compressor and install it but the compressor was getting in the way and there was no working room. On the photo you can see the difference between the shock and the thread that it's supposed to go on. The only things I removed in total were - the top bolts for the j arm but I didn't remove the actual j arm - the 3 bolts that hold the plate for the brake lines - the sway bar link (this bolted on back fine) - the strut/shock absorber
    • LOL that sounds pretty conclusive! Yeah if it doesn't work on a tight nut, it doesn't work.
    • Been a while since I've heard anyone mention Kumho tyres. It's like they've fallen off the radar in terms of street/track tyres. I still want to get below 1m50s on the RS-4 tyres at SMSP, just because lol. Even doing a 1m52s lap, going into T1 was sketchy af.
    • I've run most of the semis which are available and sadly you can pretty much rank them by price.  Fast and spendy = Z221, A050, DZ03G Ok and mid range price = R888, V70A, A052 I don't really rate the AR-1 because it's not cheap enough for the performance level offered. Yes, they're much cheaper than A050 but V70A can be had just as cheap and is a much faster and more predictable tyre.
    • There's no current law that stipulates that you cannot eat dessert with a soup spoon, although, it is socially unacceptable of course, shame on you But, there are emissions laws, which is sort of on topic to the OP's questions Things like emissions are, if anything, going to get stricter in the future for road registered cars I believe, 'Merica has yearly emisions testing in some states, the UK has it's yearly MOT testing as well which includes emissions Building, and purchasing modified vehicles may become alot more problematic if you want to keep them registered, how, if, and when each state handles this is anyone's guess  More food for thought really
