ahh ok and ill get the part number and check it that way

it isnt brand new its 2nd hand

Why risk it with a 2nd hand AFM? It simply is a waste of money.

But a new one, from a respected workshop - you won't get a fake, or one that could break in 6 months.

Don't know what all the fret is over second hand genuine units are... Most of these are run with good filters. What if someone bought a brand new unit for their car, used it for 6 months, and then upgrades to map and sells the afm for half the price? Its a good saving on a unit which hasn't much age and will probably last you the life of the car...

I bought my genuine piece over from the US a while back. Never had any issues with it(touch wood). I wouldn't buy an "z32 alternative". Often, the fake ones are listed as alternatives or aftermarket parts.

How do you know someone only used it for 6 months?

You don't.

AFM's are so cheap that it's just not worth the risk. They seem to only last 10yrs anyway so almost a consumable like a timing belt really. They certainly don't last the life of the car at all. AFM's are known to fail regularly.

A 2nd hand Z32 could be 5 years old for all you know, and belted around a bit. For the sake of a couple $$, just get a new one.

Exactly anyone can say part x has done 10000km, but in reality it has probally done close to 100000km. That's the problem with buying second hand parts. Seeing as the afm is a critical part of keeping everything running sweet i don't see why people don't fork out the extra say $100 for a new one. I got my bosch one bran new for $310 from bursons.

    • Anyone want to make me an offer to take my v36/g37 3.7l manual coupe in full? Off memory it was low 100k km but the battery is flat so can't tell right now. What's wrong. I had engine problem's that led to a nice clunk. It made it home but it wasn't pretty for the last few kms. Happened under revs. Sounds like bottom end.. never got around to fully checking or fixing it so the car has sat still and unregistered for a few years. Minor bump in front end set the pedestrian protection under bonnet airbag off and that was meant to be repaired, but while waiting for the repair (parts to come) I got the engine problem. The rest of the car is in decent condition. All drive line is good. All interior is good. Leather interior. Wheels in good condition and decent tyres although the ps4s are likely a little too old now it's sat still. Colour of the car is pewter off memory, the dark grey colour. In Camden NSW. Would need a tray back pickup.

    • I started with the above in my head too, and I might be reading / thinking about what they want wrong, which is why I complicated it a bit further. Purpose I'm seeing is for the corner indicator to be on with headlights, and then if the indicator turns on it can still flash. The relay part above I can see working as required, except in the case of headlight is on, and indicator is on. The change over relay you've wired in would get signal from the indicator, and as it flashes would give power to the globe from the indicator, but as it flashes off, power comes from the headlight, which would cause the indicator to be constantly on when headlight is on, even while indicator change over is flashing. That is unless we don't care if it flashes or not if the headlight is on? I guess that's an OP clarification.
    • HI, Ive got an r34 gtt sedan A/T. The instrument cluster went out and I replaced it with another A/T everything visually looks the same and all the gauges work now with the exception of the speedometer and odometer. The speedo will stay pinned at zero until I'm going about 55kmh and then it'll say Im going about 5kmh. my odometer seems to be tracking at about a 1/10 of what it should. If I go 1km it'll say I've only gone 0.01. Appreciate any and all help. Ive tried searching through the forums reddit and a local fb group. The only info I think I've found is that some cars didnt come equipped with TCS (mind is) and the clusters may be different between those? I've also installed a brand new VSS and no joy obviously. TIA. 
    • what speedo healer did you use?
