[dan the man]

Hi guys i need to buy a z32 afm for my r33 with power fc. im looking on ebay and there are a few different brands, i can get a new one for $129 or the bosch and jecs for about $330. Is there any difference and is it worth spending the extra?

[The Dan]

There is a difference.

One is original. One is a flea-bay copy.

You want an original - Google to find out why the copies are so bad if you want to know more.

I'll link you to where I got mine

Wait for my pm

[Kane_R32]

can you pm me also

[AngryRB]

such an important part, just get one from a reputable place or you'll end up paying twice....

[The Dan]

Yes, the chinese copies of the chinese afm can be problematic. You should buy your chinese made genuine Bosch afm from an Australian supplier so at least you have some sort of recourse. There are a few traders on this forum who sell them I am fairly sure

[AngryRB]

dont be a tight arse.. get the real deal .. and be proud that you dont have a piece of shit in your engine bay..lol

Why ebay?

There are over 20 Trusted SAU Traders that could source the product, for a decent price. Probably even have them in stock ready to go. Best thing is they are all Australian and you KNOW it will be legitimate.

If R31 gives me the okay ill post up the seller in here.

He has a very good rep on ebay and I purchased one off him for $130.

Jez had no trouble tuning with it and it was NOT a copy.

I read the "how to spot a fake Z32" on the nistune website as well.

Why would you pay $300 off a trader when you can get one for $130?

I understand there are fakes out there but fark look at kando...

You guys need to understand ebay has reputable sellers

[AngryRB]

hmm you getting these z32's off faulty towers manuel??? haha

[Manuel Kasko]

Haha ain't nothing faulty about these.

And no the eBay account isn't a mate it mine or anything before anyone says that shit

[Manuel Kasko]

I'm posting it up because in getting pm's about it.

I used this guy and had no trouble

I am not held accountable if you have trouble.

The z32 I got was a genuine z32

[Hanaldo]

You might have mentioned he's a second-hand parts dealer... lol.

[Manuel Kasko]

[AngryRB]

[Manuel Kasko]

The guy pretty much always has Z32's in stock.

I might buy 50 of them and sell them to you noobs with a southern cross sticker on them

Under a trader name of "Everything Manuel"

How is a 2nd hand AFM - the same as a brand new one?

Buying a 10yo+ AFM is no more purposeful than buying a ebay copy. Everyone knows the AFM's shit themselves, yes you can attempt repairs, sometimes it works and sometimes it does not.

So you spend $130 ($155 posted) on a repaired AFM, 6 months later it's dead. All of sudden you've spend $300 (to get another)... When you could've just spend $300 to begin with and it would be fine for the next 10 years.

The poor man pays twice.

You wouldn't use a 2nd hand fuel pump, AFM isn't much difference.

Ask anyone that's had to diagnose a intermittent fault with an AFM. It's a ripe pain in the ass. For $150 difference it's just not worth the arse ache.
