upon purchasing my car it came with a few goodies. one which is the older model APEXi AFC which can be seen in this picture below. The only issue with it was it wasn't plugged in and didn't even have the plug on the rear of it, it was just mounted there with the boost controller.

Ive spent ages looking on the net for the manual for it but can only find the new blue screen S-AFC and the generation 1 AFC which is like mine but has 5 knobs on it instead of one.

Does anyone out there have the same model as this and could offer me some assistance as to which wire out the back (4 in the plug ) is suppose to be which colour etc. the rest i should be able to figure out.

2 are for power and two are to go to the AFM.

any help would be greatly appreciated.

thanks.

Shaun

yeah, its something around the lines of +-23% from memory.

I've searched the web pretty hard and could only come across the other models. The Gen1 tells you where each colour wire is suppose to go and i plan on wiring it up how that says, but it doesn't have a diagram explaining what colour pin 1 -> 4 actually are as im lacking the actual plug. :cool:

im thinking about prying it open and seeing which wires are power etc. id assume pin1 and 2 are power, but I had better check first before sending 12v through it.

Let me give you a big tip mate. Remove it from the car and sell / trade it in on something else at a wrecker.

I had that exact same one in my car when I got it and it is vey bad to tune with. That knob only adjusts fuel over the entire rev range at a preset level.

When I had mine tuned as best as possible i made 117rwkw (few other mods) then I removed it and made 119rwkw.

Basically this is the very first afc made by APEXi and was fine if you need lots of fuel all the time or less fuel all the time but generally it will cause more problems than its worth.

      Cleaning my wheels 😍

      By PranK · Posted

      A little follow up here on the ceramic coating.  We've had storms galore here and I've done a few ks, enough to gross them up  Consensus is that they didn't get as dirty as usual, the coating definitely repelled a little of the dirt and I think they kinda snowball. They get a little dirty and then they get dirty faster which makes sense. Cleaning them regularly would allow them to protect better.  Cleaning was a breeze. I tried first to just hose them off which, unsurprisingly, did nothing. But, making the wheels wet and then just wiping them over with a used but clean microfibre cloth was all that was required. I didn't need any cleaner at all, just water and a cloth. The wheels look amazing again.

      Gave her a nice wash today and took extra time to clean off the tree sap and tar and crap. We have a usable garage now so she'll stay cleaner longer. Took a few snaps in some nice light afterwards.

      OK, solid mount Z1 diff brace is in, pretty straightforward, it picks up 3 diff hat bolts and ties them to 2 support bolts on the subframe. Pretty sure someone else on here said they had reduced axle tramp with this but mine was already pretty good for smooth wheelspin, and still is....will see you this goes over time and whether I end up with a broken rear diff hat

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      Ah yes, but the part in my hand was actually painted and fitted by me! I knew any front lip was likely to be sacrificial but I've had to fix it twice already... by the time I buy a fibreglass fixing kit, sort out sandpaper blocks, buy some fibreglass filler, body bog, spend the time and effort for a 'Greg' result... a new one being $290 seems like it's the better way to go and spray that with bedliner/raptor coat and we're all pretty again.. Would have preferred it last more than a month though. Them's the breaks I suppose.

      I find it funny that the USA is finding out all this really really weird stuff, and people from the USA are coming here treating it like gospel, yet, all the info on solving those issues is here on these forums for the last 15 odd years... Also, I know how much heat it takes to ignite the hood lining of an R33 skyline. I worked it out myself... It also took a LOT of time, and heat for it to do it... Big single, and I needed to drive the car, so retarded the timing off to "protect it". Yeah, that was a bad move for cruising on a freeway with only 15 degrees of timing on it. That was a lesson I learned around 2009. So that's over 15 odd years ago. Aligning water and oil, that's identical for any turbo engine, it's not Japanese specific. If a shop doesn't know how to make sure the core is rotated the right way, then they shouldn't be touching any turbo engine. That's not a matter of "We haven't had Skylines for that long here"...
