nope... wont work. get an apexi SAFC 1 or 2, easiest way to run z32 afm.

can you explain to me what it exactly does? air flow converter? how much does it cost, how easily available is it?

so, your basically telling me i need to change the computer in my car to the z32 to work? how effective are the piggyback ecu's?

Get your ECU remapped. Will do a much better job than an SAFC

can you get a stock r32 ecu remapped? shouldnt i just buy a aftermarket ecu?

sorry if im asking stupid/obvious questions, but i have moved from N/A to Turbocharged, and boy, there is so much stuff to learn that its overwhelming.

safc might not be the greatest way... but i did that because i couldnt afford to have my ecu missing for a week. i bought a safc on ebay, installed it on the weekend, got it set up and road tuned by myself with an a/f gauge before i had to drive to work on the monday.. and any changes i made after could be retuned in.. not have to send the ecu away again. now that im selling the car.. i have removed the bits and pieces and the safc and everything is as normal.

aftermarket ECU or remap is the best option though.

Nistune will cost you $200 and probably $100 to get some one to adjust the afm setting or you can tell me what ecu model you are using and i could send you a stock tune adjusted to suit the Z32

woah, you can connect your ecu to your computer and change the ecu settings through your computer? the r32 ecu just sits on the bottom left of the passenger seats just right next to the feet right...?

Buy the Nistune chip software and cable and you have a real time tunable ecu

id rather not tune it myself, as im still new to the tuning scene. Besides, im not going to fork out $400+ just to get my z32 working. How much does it cost to get your car tuned at a workshop?

Tunning the car just to take the Z32 will require it to be chipped and that will probably cost a couple of $100 to start with you are better off paying the $400 and adjusting this single setting your self very easy to do 1 drop down menu involved and it will at least mean when you do want the car tuned properly you are just paying for dyno time

i got my nistune supplied and fitted at status tuning, and they did the plug for the z32, i think it came to $700 or $750.

couldnt be happier.

      Its also very clearly made to take business away from https://theskylineshed.com/ which is legitimate and even has a physical address.

      The 'About Us' got me ..  I added something to the cart and clicked 'check out' and none of the payment options in the footer (ie those with buyer protection) were available. Stay the hell away from this one.

      No. Not true for any non-GTR R32. I think even the GTS4 has the GTSt knuckles with eye type lower shock mounts (as opposed to GTR fork lower shock mounts). The only R chassis in which something like the quote claim is true is the R34, on which the turbos have the fork type and the NAs have the eye type. **Edit: Actually I reserve the right to be wrong about the above statement. It might also be true on R33s. My memory on those shitboxen has faded too much.

      It's a scam. It has all the telltale signs: - The "business" doesn't have a physical address or really any kind of information listed - It's using a generic online store website template - The prices are ridiculously reduced. To good to be true cheap - Everything is in stock and can be ordered in any possible combination   I've seen a few of these for other products as well. Things like sunglasses for example. I'd say stay away from it! And maybe reach out to the real theskylineshed and let them know this exists. I doubt there is much they can do about it, but still.   I don't know if they would actually take your money if you ordered something. Or whether it is just for collecting credit card details to scam otherwise. I'm not game or stupid enough to try it.
