HUGE DAY possibly the biggest dyno day on record certainly for us. Anyone been to a bigger one?

Adam great job and not easy hey. Big well done. Most enjoyed the day and some thought our air fuel ratio was lean and then some rich so not consistent either way, so guess it is right. We did have the odd problem with air temp sensor which had a dicky plug new one ordered a few weeks back and arrived today, bit late. The inlet temp reading went through the roof, like 150c and so dyno compensated and gave a few rare cars huge power so rerun and all were right in the end. Some cars pinging whether customer wanted to believe it or not. Some only slight and one R32 GTR fairly stock pinging quit a lot and running lean so could save his engine by coming this day. We would have liked some time to do some demo's and before and after but I think over all a great day. Beer Baron you consistent jocularity would ahve been welcome on the day as always.

It actually WAS strapped down when it did that, then they decided to strap it a bit tighter.

In the first place I had to ask Ben about 6 times to strap it down

Ben is a great mechanic and tuner not so friendly. He was also under immense pressure mentally and physically and takes his work very pationatley and serious. I have had or tried mech's who are talkative and super friendly but don't do good workand shoud be in sales.

Makes a good story I guess. You told us it was stock 6 times so are we supposed to be mind readers or interrogate customers more?? It takes longer to strap cars down and if we strapped all down would not have got through 50 cars. Your car was impressive especially with stock air box which is testimony that ram pods are not needed. There are much lower powered GTR's have ram pods and have the noise and sucking hot air.

Adrian I have never seen NOS on dyno before and that damaged me and messed with my mind as SO IMPRESSIVE. Instant power and no lag and more power everywhere.

Thought someone could have brought something along to beat my zed, he he...

Will do it again in about a years time give us some time to recover. It will only be bigger and better.

      Hello, sorry for being late to join the discussion, but my clock just died on me.   Ive tried to look at Michaels digital clock repair.docx and it doesnt work maybe the file has expired.   Please let me know if you can re upload it or take some youtube videos to show us how to get the clock installed? thanks

      Strange issue RB25DET wont start

      By jtha7 · Posted

      Ps i found the below forum and it seems to be the same scenario Im dealing with. Going to check my ECU coolant temp wire tomorrow    From NICOclub forum: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Thu Apr 11, 2013 7:23 am I am completely lost on this. Car ran perfectly fine when I parked it at the end of the year. I took the engine out and painted the engine bay, and put a fuel cell with an inline walbro 255 instead of the in tank unit I had last year. After reinstalling everything, the engine floods when the fuel pump primes. if i pull the fuel pump fuse it'll start, and as soon as I put the fuse back in it starts running ridiculously rich. I checked the tps voltage, and its fine. Cleaned the maf as it had some dust from sitting on a shelf all winter, fuel pressure is correct while running, but wont fire until there is less than 5psi in the lines. The fuel lines are run correctly. I have found a few threads with the same problem but no actual explanation of what fixed it, the threads just ended. Any help would be appreciated.

I found the problem though. There was a break in one of the ecu coolant temp sensor wires. Once it was repaired it fired right up with no problems. I would have never thought a non working coolant temp sensor would have caused such an issue.

      Strange issue RB25DET wont start

      By jtha7 · Posted

      Hi sorry late reply I didnt get a chance to take any pics (my mechanics on the other side of the city) but the plugs were fouled from being too rich. I noticed the MAF wasn't genuine, so I replaced it with a genuine green label unit. I also swapped in a different ignitor, but the issue remains. I've narrowed it down a bit now: - If I unplug and reconnect the fuel lines and install fresh spark plugs, the car starts right up and runs perfectly. Took it around the block with no issues - As soon as I shut it off and try to restart, it won't start again - Fuel pressure while cranking is steady around 40 psi, injectors have good spray, return line is clear, and the FPR vacuum is working. It just seems like it's getting flooded after the first start I unplugged coolant sensors to see if its related to ECU flooding but that didnt make a difference. Im thinking its related to this because this issue only started happening after fixing coolant leaks and replacing the bottom part of the stock manifolds coolant pipe. My mechanic took off the inlet to get to get to do these repairs. My mechanics actually just an old mate who's retired now so ill be taking it to a different mechanic who i know has exp with RBs to see if they find anything. If you have any ideas please send em lll give it a try. Ive tried other things like swapping the injectors, fuel rail, different fuel pressure regs, different ignitor, spark plugs, comp test and MAF but the same issue persists.
