Z32 Afm With Hcr32 Airbox

[abu]

Hey

I will be getting my car tuned hopefully in a few weeks once I get my turbo kit on along with the GTR injectors and Z32 AFM.

Anyways my question is, how can I run a Z32 AFM with my standard HCR32 air box?

Will it bolt straight up like the standard one or how do I go about it?

Has anyone done it before?

Turbo kit comes with a new intake pipe so thats not a problem but I just wait to retain the standard air box.

You need an adaptor.

Then its bolt on.

What adaptor, where from? How much!?

Don't giveaway too much details

If your turbo kit comes with a new intake pipe then thats where your problem could potentially be...other than that like nismoid said...it can be made to work...i wouldn't worry about the adaptor first...get everything together then see what needs to be done...its nothing abit of backyard ingenuity can't fix...

Yeah I am thinking the intake pipe won't line up with the air box either. Thats a minor set back though, as long as the Z32 AFM sits on the air box I can get the intake pipe from the turbo to AFM made up.

Why would u need an adaptor the z32 replaces the rb20 afm perfectly. Its only the physically bigger Q45 that would require some work.

Hey your exactly right!

I just went on to Paulr33s website and found some information.

The z32 usually needs a custom plug made up to fit (see documents section). The unit size is the same and bolt holes are the same so your standard pod or airbox still match up. You'll need a remapped ECU or SAFC or Aftermarket ECU to support the z32. They can be brought second hand for about $250. Usually recommend at about 250rwkw in an R33

Thanks for that man, thats all the information I needed.

Thats the 2nd time I have been told it wouldn't fit standard intake setup from RB20.

Now I can use my stock intake pipe as well as the air box.

Also taken from Paulr33's website.

Z32 AFM: Same size as RB20/RB25 but has higher calibration. Should be good for around 350rwkw. Perfect swap into Rb20/Rb25 as bolt pattern is identical and no change is required. RB30 AFM plug fits which can be had very cheaply from any nissan/holden wrecker

All RB20/25/Z32 AFMs are 80mm in diameter so your right 2630GTS, Z32 will bolt straight up.
