Hi,

I'm looking for an Apexi Air Flow Converter, to suit a R33 Skyline RB25DET.

I hear the SAFC II or NEO is what I should be looking for, correct me if I'm wrong though.

New or used, as long as it works and has the wiring to splice into the ECU.

Basically I'm looking for anything $300-400 or under that will allow me to adjust the AIR/FUEL ratio as my Skyline is running rich and has some flat spots in the engine between 3,000-4,000rpm and sometimes 5,000-6,000rpm. This will be a temp fix to obtain a road worthy until I can afford a replacement ECU.

I'm located in Melbourne S.E Suburbs. Send me a PM or email [email protected]

Hey mate,

You won't pass a RWC (or a decent one) with an SAFC or any re-mappable ECU as it effects emissions.

Why does it need tuning for a RWC?

Hi there,

I have chased down the problem to be a dodgy O2 sensor. The main problem is that the car runs rich, blows a lot of black smoke & drinks more fuel than should. Also for the road worthy it had surges/flat spots between 3,000-4,000rpm. Which were fixed with the new O2 sensor.

Basically I wanted it for a road worthy to remove the flat spots as I thought it would make the car drive a little more "normally" with the mods done to it, but as said, the O2 sensor did the trick.

I'm still chasing an Air Flow Controller, but I'm battling through the Road Worthy and an oil leak before I'll have the money to buy one. So thanks to everyone who PM'd me. I'll be in touch once I have everything sorted. :)

    • Before you blow your car up, have you checked you've made all the correct modifications to the wiring if you're still using the RB20DE loom?   Some things to look at: The pin used for the map sensor on the RB25DET, is the same pin used on the RB20DE for the Ring Gear Crankshaft Position Sensor, no idea what you've got it plugged into now. The turbo pressure control valve solenoid you're talking about on the RB25DET, the same pin is used for the Variable Air Intake Control Valve on the RB20DE.   The factory manual has the wiring pinouts in it for you to check everything. It also has the diagnostics process to read codes out. In addition, there's a great table that shows what sensors and what actuators not functioning will relate to which signals. And Nissan confirm the as everyone else has from experience, the Solenoid being disconnected won't cause a fuel cut. However, the turbo pressure sensor being missing / wrong, WILL cause a fuel cut. https://www.nicoclub.com/service-manual?fsm=Skyline%2FR34-Workshop-Manual-English.pdf
    • I've been hunting info on the G Series II - this is best I have found so far(Link below). Still waiting on the G35-1150 comp map, kind of very keen   So how do we go about getting precision on that little table of yours ?   https://turbosbytm.com/sites/default/files/product/technical-info/Garrett-G-Series-II-Product_Flyer 25 30 35_1.pdf  
    • yeah I get ~0.6L per session into the catch can. very ethanoly. It ends up overflowing out the breather of the catch can on circuit days too even with a 2.3L capacity catch can and I only drain out ~0.6L max. So every session I have to come in and drain the catch can, which is a hassle. So this is me cracking the shits and doing everything I can without removing the motor (back of head sump drain/breather and oil restrictors off the table). plans short term are: full length splash plates remove oem cam cover baffle add foam and reinstall at -10 or -12 AN fittings to the side of the cam covers down to the sump (luckily I already have fittings in the sump) Yes the ~340,000km unopened motor is probably not helping things
    • I'd use any fuel safe foam....mine went in 15 years and 15 rebuilds ago, still getting reused I'd have to say I don't understand swapping to studs to fit a particular baffle unless you are having a massive blowby issue, and even if you are addressing crankcase not head breathing is probably the next step.
    • BTW, the reason I came in here to "update" this list was that the Garrett G Series II range have been released and I've updated the list with their flow details if you're curious to check how they fit with previous Garretts and other brands The G-Series II G35 990 looks like a banger...
