RUH ROH! What happenned sub?

It started idling rough as i was driving, i pulled over and turned it off. I started it again and the idle smoothed out so i drove it home.

Went to start it again and nothing.

My car shit its self today.

I have this pain in my stomach.

Saw the thread in FI, its not something stupid like a bad batch of fuel, fouled plugs or blocked injectors? Maybe coils...

So it DOESN'T fire at ALL now? Doesn't even try to?

Yeah who knows mate it could be anyone of those.

Just the ignition, no motor.

thats cool man,

2 easy things to check are fuel and ignition, is it getting both??

Yes it is.

Changed fuel filter and its crankin over ok, Im hopin its coils or something electrical and not mechanical.

at least its cheap to replace those double post coils that you have if anything is wrong with them

Yes it is.

Sad to hear as your car is a beast. Let us know how it goes

cya all im off to work

AIR FLOW METER!!!!

Check it is plugged in properly, I had a similar problem and it was caused by my plug being broken..hence not getting a proper signal from the AFM

he runs a microtech, hence no AFM.

there is his problem right there!

His computers inbuilt aids finally reached maturity!

ha ha DOH sorry I could be of no assistance then

yeah he should have a haltech, then it could try to fill 2 cylinders with fuel and then compress it. would be heaps better

So tell me...

is it wrong that we just ordered 2 pizzas, a 1.25L coke, and a garlic bread, delivered, for $25.95....

and we have counted out and are going to pay the delivery driver that amount in 5 and 10c pieces?

ahaha gold.. let us knw how that goes... :(

    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
    • Well they got my money but they are not getting my gearbox ! 
    • It's needed for rolling idle up, and I think it is a decider on VCT also.
    • I mean, not really. Link ECU's can absolutely still have errors from the ECU thinking it's getting a sensor it's not expecting. I would imagine the speed at the ECU level in Nistune does absolutely nothing anyway? I assume the ECU does not do any fancy TC stuff with regards to front+rear wheel speed or anything of that like anyway. Someone who uses Nistune may be more fluent in it.
