What are you going to do regarding the engine harness? The question is, IS the stagea plug the same as a R34 GTT?

If need be, use a R34 GTT harness

There is one for sale at the moment for $400

When my 2 Stagea's get here in approx 3 weeks, I will be able to compare my S1 and S2 side by side, and also have my R33 GTST to compare with if need be.

Also my importer mate has 2-off S2 Stagea Neo engines with "manual boxes" attached coming this week, so I will be comparing them aswell.

i Spoke to John at UAS yesterday, he can supply, fit and dyno tune a power fc onto a S2 rs four s stagea for $2200

Bozidar, who i work with for saikoogarage.com can do an installed an tuned pfc for 1800. You'd probably get change.

And he can sure tune em - he built a 180sx w/ SR20DET up that does 11.3 quarters.

the next thing of course is which specific model FC to get? as there are a few different ones available?

if anyone has a specific part number/model number would be a good thing to go on.

would make life easier when searching the net or shops for prices etc.

Thats really does suck, because i do believe well in my case anyway that it is a waste of time and money going manual, i would just be better off buying a 260rs which im not going to do as of yet anyway, or just going back to an S13/14/15 manual standard from factory.

If you want manual buy a car manual from factory, conversions are always a pain in the arse.... and that is from experience

but for the guys who bought their stags a while back when manuals were up around 30k self import and autos were 15 to 20 grand still a cheaper proposition to go manual via a conversion and also with the ratios of manuals to autos it far easier to find a car with everything you want and the colour you want for a good price than a similar manual

my 2c

I fully understand what you are saying, and i give props to anyone who has done or is going to convert to manual.

Basically my point that i was trying to make was its a shame they dont make auto pfc, as i dont intend on going manual, well in the short term anyway.

And im sure a lot less people would go manual if they new they could get pfc for auto.

    • Depending on how long the car sat it is very possible for injectors to be stuck open or closed, I'd get them cleaned and flow tested. Other than that, obviously when the loom changes and the car doesn't start any more....the loom is suspect so some tracing / comparing may be required
    • Harness is for a s1 Rb25det, and it is engine and lower harness.  the old harness had broken off plugs and was in very rough condition/exposed wires and splices etc. it is not able to be put back on the car, I could visually inspect to see if they had rewired any pins on the ecu plug. The fuel pump definitly isn’t turning off it’s an external pump and very loud you can hear it. Will look at the other harness tonight, am also going to pull the fuel rail and watch the injectors spray, will update here with what I find. Pretty sure at this point it has to be something to do with injectors because car will fire up on starting fluid and cas is clicking the Injectors. Fuel pressure is steady 43psi 
    • Check the injectors flow evenly, and are actually flowing what you and the ECU think they should be flowing. If it's starting up on starter fluid, you have a fuel issue. Is it possible under cranking your fuel pump is turning off?   The harness you replaced, is that the whole engine harness? Do yourself a test, and drop the old harness on and plug it into the Z32 ECU. It's possible they've wired things different. From memory S1 to S2 is different in RB25 and you may have a wrong loom
    • I haven’t pulled the injectors to watch them spray yet but they are clicking from the cas and all of the spark plugs are wet with fuel. I’ve thought the cylinders were being flooded from the beginning and was hoping fuel pressure would fix it. Tonight I am going to pull the rail and watch the injectors spray. Don’t know how to test/diagnose if the plugs are firing in correct sequence but that should be a timing thing and as far as timing goes my car still has the half moon for the cas can only install it 1 way. And my mechanical timing is 100% correct I posted photos above. Confirmed with the balancer on and off.
