JDM style? but it serve its function by simply adjusting the dial and change the air/fuel ratio. although no fancy functions like throttle position, digital tachometer, air/fuel ratio display... but it can be backed up by an autometer air/fuel gauge.
u guys think i'll work for maxima?
yes it will work...but it only has 5 ranges of adjustability as opposed to the newer models with 12. looks like a Japandy auction 
but if you're NA, why waste the money??

i always wanted a s-afc, i donno why but i jus want to own one! couple other reasons i wanna get it so i can tune my own air/fuel ratio for gas mileage purpose, less of performance for now. in the future i will consider about forced induction. Originally posted by DA-MAX

if so, why not pick it up now?
i'll own s-afc as a little toy before and get friendly with it for awhile then go forced induction.but yea still doin research and price on s-afc... thx for the reply.
in order to get the best improvemnt out of one you'll have to see some dyno time...not worth it just to save some gas. anyways if you do get one, don't waste money on the old one

The SAFC won't help your gas mileage because you have to be above 40% throttle for it to kick in. Anything below 40% throttle will be adjusted to the stoiciometric ratio 14.7:1 since the engine is in closed loop.

You may be able to hook it up and get it operating, but it won't work correctly on the Maxima...the old school APEXi AFC's only have a blanket adjustment for preset rpms. Not only do you lose the ability to modify for a greater number and variable rpms (not really that big of a detriment), but you lose the ability to adjust for low and high rpms. Because of the self-learning ability of the Maxima ECU, any change you make to any specific rpm will eventually be dialed out due to the ECU compensating. If you make the fuel trim leaner at 5000 rpm, for example, the ECU will see the leaner mixture via the O2 sensors, and automatically adjust the fuel trim to dial the fuel mixture such that the O2 readings come back inline.
It's a waste of money on a Maxima.
