Joe your lucky you never lowered your car - because your place is absolute murder for lowered cars took me about 15mins of very slow driving to get down that ramp of yours in the Line!!

But i used to work in this place that had a highrise underground carpark and i was only privledged to bring my car in if i had to work til 6pm. I hated that job - but anyway on the way down i used to set off every alarm i could in the ZX (plus ive left black marks in that carpark for them to remember me by) hin the hope that their batteries would be flat when they left - did i mention i hated that job haha!!

Dont take the line into highrise carparks often as i find that the ramps constantly scrape my kit because its lowered aghh! I did once when i had job interview - and never again because every ramp was *sccccraapeee*

Who said I never lowered the car... well you are right I didn't lower the car but my car already been Lowered... but not as low as your or Angel's car.

after taking out my struts I found out that my springs and shockies are not stock... they are some jap after market.

yeah I know my place is very very bad for any lowered car!

even my mate's VX SS commie touches his exhaust on that ramp... :D

hahaha speaking of highrise building car parks... under cover car park at bank west is shocking when I drive my car the exhaust is sooo loud due to echo factor sets off the all the alarm of BMW, Firrararary, Jags.... you name it I set off their alram... heheh.

I got told by sercurity guard to slow down... he think I speed through the car park. :) come on I dont want to hit any of the cars in there ;)

Not a problem.

Don't forget I have owned a couple with two more cams , one more turbo and a LOT less room to work under the bonnet.

Aussie delivered - yes it is which gave me a shock when i found out because it had to have gone up to hong kong first then come back down here in 95. Been with Ash Farlay for all of its lifespan til it came into my evil hands in 2000.

In really good nick.

didnt happen to go up my street yesterday arvo did ya? haha mum was painting the front lounge and i get "Lauren, Lauren come here quick before ya miss it" but i was too late - apparently a white skyline was doing a slow cruise of the our street and since skylines are a extremely rare sight around here - she reckons it was somebody looking for my car haha.

my cars around - its usually parked down the side - or quite often im out. I dont exactly spend much time "cruising" around high wycombe haha you'll often see the car parked outside the liqour shop picking up something haha

    • 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. 
    • I checked spark on all cylinders and they all visually have spark with the plug pulled and grounded, but plug 1 is the only one that fouled. This was a running swap that blew up and was rebuilt by a machine shop, put a new wiring specialties harness and did all gaskets, studs, and bolts while it was out.  compression is 135-150 across all cylinders. Aside from that from my understanding with the z32 ecu and maf the car should start regardless. The wiring for TPS and the dual 02 sensor/ dual knock sensor stuff shouldn’t actually stop the car from starting or even running well, (just slightly rich)  they just give fault codes. Car supposedly is supposed to start as long as you have z32 afm and ecu with the nistune base map and that’s info coming from a well known and trusted tuner who does a lot with SR/RB (Rsenthalpy). After more trouble shooting today where I’m at right now is that the cas is sending signal to the injectors they click while spinning the rotor, Fuel pressure is now set at 43psi, all cylinders have good compression and all of the plugs looked great (just wet with fuel) except for cylinder 1 which was very black (cylinder 1 has 150psi compression). all of the coils generate spark if pulled out and grounded out on the head. On the fuel pump car just pops into the exhaust. On starting fluid car will fire off. Hard to tell if all cylinders are firing off but definitley a couple. sounds like all of them but it’s only for 3-5 seconds hard to tell. 
    • Final update!!! Got the front bar fitted and sprayed and all sorted now. My cutouts worked great and the indicators aren’t just falling off. 😂  
    • Is this a brand new LSD? if so, have you followed any break/bed in procedure for it? Usually involves heaps of figure 8 patterns, a fluid flush.
