Yes i do. Lol. But i also have lots of cars. This is for my gts4 that i just brought back from the dead. Im running small 550 injectors and using a power fc. I know to make about 500hp using no dyno, but on my other gtrs im aiming for way more than 500hp. But on this car (gts4) i just was wondering if i need to use z32 afm for 22 psi. Thats my goal. Ive done 25 psi on rb25 wit z32 afm and the motor still going to this day. Just need to know if the twin stock r32 afm will handle 22 psi.

Max psi? 10000000000

Air FLOW meters measure flow not pressure. They can read 'x' amount of flow. Need to know what turbos are being used

This is why AFM's are usually talked about in terms of how much power they will handle as air flow is pretty much directly proportional to power. The more air you get in the engine, the more power you can achieve etc etc

The motor is freshly built. All stock other than oil mods and acl race bearings, mls head gasket. I did it all with spare parts around the yard. Doesnt mean i just want to just blow it up. Lol. I will tho. Kml. Im sure ill figure it all out tho mate. Worst case is ill just run twin z32. But was wondering as i have like 12 oem afm for gtr's. Oh internal parts are all new. Not old. :D

Courtesy Paulr33's website:

Rule of thumb for Air Flow meters RWKW (you will note a single RB25 AFM will measure more than a single GTR AFM)

AFM Max Power at 5v Single RB25 AFM 225rwkw

Single Z32 AFM 350rwkw

Single Q45 AFM 300rwkw

Twin RB26 AFMs 300rwkw

Twin RB25 AFMs 450rwkw

Twin Z32 AFMs 511rwkw

Twin Q45 AFMs 600rwkw

Thanks for that mate. These are in rwkw. Simple conversation. Looks like twin r32 afm will max out but could work, but at there limit. Hmmm. Funny to see that a singal z32 is at 350 figure twin would be at 700 but its at 511 in twin set up. And twin q45 is at 600. Is this wright????

twin rb25 is great for resolution.

twin z32 are generally over kill (unless needed) and in many setups you end up using only 1/2 to 3/4 of the scale and lose tune resolution.

i would much rather the AFM scale be @ 90% max than at 50% max

I started to look at the flow charts for the holset and a gtx35r. Looks like there will be about 15 to 20 LB/Minute difference from about 22 psi.

Im trying to compare it to my r33 gtr thats running twin z32 afm with gtx3582r turbo.

Damn i wish i had a better turbo laying around. :(

Yeah there is actually.

Series one is a 4 pin while series 2 is a 3 pin pink label.

I think Nistune has it listed for an extra 20 HP or so

So the R33GTST S2 has the pink label, and the S1 has the green label, which is also used by the RB20DET and RB25De, just for clarity.

    • I'm hoping I just don't have to do an engine rebuild NOW. Doesn't mean I won't do it at some point. I think a plus point is that the car presumably ran on or close to stock power nearly all it's life so far. Only the Owner I bought it from actually increased power with a standalone ECU and blew the OEM turbos. And after it got thee 2860s it wasn't driven an awful lot either.   That is what I meant. With the twins coming on so late (4500-5000rpm) I hope the rods won't want to exit the block prematurely. And it still being a 26 means the torque curve isn't gonna hike up all that much.   It didn't blow up on the dyno when they tuned it to 500ish crank. So I suppose it'll be okay for now. They did put a Tomei head gasket on first though which did not seal at all, and they redid it with a Cometic one. Which I hope won't be my water leak.   Mainly anything oil. So far all it has is the N1 pump, oil restrictor and a filter relocation kit with a cooler.
    • 15000? ish? Something like that anyway. It wasn;t so much a wear as a tear that then spread. Might have lasted a lot longer if not bothered by just one incident, whatever it was. I took a punt. They are really comfortable and do a good job of holding. My daughter HATED it when I first put them in, and probably still does now. She has sensory issues and hates the way they are all up your business. I'm 197cm and 95kg. Not fat or particularly wide, and the XL size seat is the rigth fit. If I was any fatter it would start to get too snug. Any skinnier and you'd possibly want the smaller width.
    • Mrs rs focus came factory with recaro cs  sportsters in it and they a pain in the ass to get in and out of with the really high bolsters, once you were in them they were one of the most comfortable seats I have ever sat in
    • The NA 2.5 has very little torque. You won't feel much. Those trannies are also a million years old now and it could well be f**ked. First generation electronically controlled autos will often refuse to kick down, ete, etc, depending on what's wrong with them.
    • Yes, but no but yes but no. Those "it's fine up to 500HP" rules and everything else like it were all determined back when the cars were 10 years old. As they are now 30 years old.....what do you reckon the chances of something shitting the bed are? I'd say they are much higher now than they used to be. You might be lucky. You might be unlucky. Spin the wheel and find out. Yeah, nah. It's actually exactly the opposite. Making boost early and having heaps of torque able to be generated right in the middle of the rev range will do more to damage an engine than having to rev it high to make the power. Think about the load on the conrods, bearings, etc, to make 400HP at 4000 rpm, vs 400 HP at 6500 rpm. So someone has already "let the Nissan out" which is how we describe the increased chance of a fiddled with engine to have had something done wrongly. Many more engines that have been opened die than stock ones do - even if you into consideration how they are treated wrt power levels and the like. Again, not saying that yours will definitely have been put back together by a moron. But the possibility does exist. It's still a lottery. Spin the wheel. What weakspots?
