First--thank you for letting me post here.

I have a 280z datsun project using RB26 single turbo R33- I'm from New england area USA.

I searched & read the single maf thread but a bit cloudy to me. At the end of the thread, seems the poster were not able to get the solution on how to setup powerfc l-jetro using single turbo and single maf. I can't PM the poster, his thread was 2007.

Anyway, can you help and lead me to a thread or a person successfully setup up a single turbo-single maf?

If single turbo setup is a bit tricky - I don't mind to go back using TT. I am open for suggestions.

Thank you!

Which MAF are you using? I would assume that a single r33 GTR MAF would restrict airflow into the turbo too much, and you'd be having an airflow constraint resulting in much less power.

Most people get a custom Y pipe that joins two MAFs into the turbo.

The Z32 AFM is the obvious upgrade from RB26 AFMs, but even then you're supposed to use 2 of them.

If you have the room, seriously just use 2 RB26 (or Z32 if you want to go for big power) AFMs in parallel, 2 into one as described above. Saves all that buggering around with trying to work out if you have to wire the single AFM to both inputs of the PFC or whatever other shenanigans have been suggested.

    • Hi. A little bit of an update. It maybe(hope not) looks like i would need a new tranny(it would be "maybe" a cheaper or better option anyway) So i need some info. I know i need a different propshaft(i can make custom one) LSD is not a problem cuz the engine will be still(for now) N/A RB20. So if i buy RB25DET NEO tranny...is there something else i need? I read something about push/pull type but i do not know if i need to "change" something or i can just plug n play onto my engine a go? Thanks for the advice  
    • Good morning all, Bit of a random question but figured I’d finally throw it out after wondering for a long while. Before I start, I'm hoping to do this purely out of personal preference. I think it would look better at night, and don't mind at all spending a few hours and dollars to get it done. I've copied this from a non-Skyline specific forum, so I apologize for the explanation of our headlight switch setup that we all know. Here we go: Zero lights (switch off) Parking lights (switch position 1) being a rectangular marker on the outside of the housing, my low beam being the projector in the centre (position 2), and a high beam triggered by my turn signal stalk. Most North American cars I’ve owned of this era have power to the amber corner (turning indicator) light as part of the first switch (parking lights). I’d love to have these amber corners receive power when the headlights and parking lights are on (headlight switch), yet still blink when using the turn signal which is of course a separate switch. Hopefully I’ve explained my question correctly. Is anyone aware of a way in which I might be able to achieve this? Thanks in advance
    • My heads are cathedral port! It's likely possible, but I don't want to add any extra moving parts (I know they don't move) between the heads, manifolds, etc. It will also affect how injectors/fuel rails etc sit and I don't really know if it would change how the FAST manifold goes/sits/fits. I have the LS6 steam pipes already as I have a very late LS1 block so it should be fine. I couldn't find anyone who had ever actually used one for this purpose, it seems 100% of people grind the water pump. The thermal spacers are 12mm and are half way to the cost of the newer water pump anyhow... so if it comes to that I suppose I'd rather buy a new pump. The bearing in the pump I do have is a little.. clunky, but it hasn't done that much time and I never noticed it when the car was together in the past few years, so..
    • The bushing has failed, not all that uncommon for a car of this age.  Any mechanic should be able to push in a new bushing for you, or you can probably buy the entire lower control arm, complete with bushes.
    • Could you not use "thermal" spacers to give the clearance, like the ones I used between the blower and head? That raised the manifold height by around 10-15mm Albeit the ones I used were for cathedral ports, but I assume they have similar for rectangular ports????
