i hav a '93 rb26tt thats being a pig!!!!! it stalld on me a week ago then started to

over fuel heaps.... had a mate look at in on monday night and it didnt play up when

he was there (as usual) then yesterday it started to over fuel and run like a pig again.

today it wouldnt hold idle and now it wont crank!!!!!!!!! ive recently changed from a

standard computer thats been chiped by mines to an apexi power fc.... tha power fc

already had a map for this motor (its not a standard rb26) and it seemed to hold idle

a bit more solid than the mines but as i said it wont start now unless its clutched....

any help would be great :)

Are you sure its poring in fuel? Have you checked plugs & coils? Injectors can be stuck open from dirty fuel and it has clogged up the injectors. Not cranking? Once again injectors stuck open so there are flooding a few cylinders, this also can be caused by bad plugs (flooded), bad coils or even ignition module. Maybe try a stock ECU? Might be the wrong tune...

Checking them one by one will take you closer to you problem...

Cheers,

Alex.

im sure it fueling up... you can see it spitting on the exhaust tip then it evaporates. and when it finally starts

it blows alot of black smoke. the mines computer ran it fine untill last sat when it stalld.

how do i go about checking coils injectors etc? could it be a prob with o2 sensors or the fuel reg?

ive gon efrom owning a datto with carbies to a rb27tt (tomei stroker) im in over my head i think :)

Try putting the old stock mines ECU back in. Defiantly sounds like a fuel/ignition problem. Take the plugs out and have a look at the condition. Faulty coil packs usually come from having cracks in them.

TRY:

*Taping the wire loom that connects all the coils

*Replacing new plugs to NGK iridium gapped to 0.8mm

*Checking coil packs for cracks (If so try to using silicon to fill them in)

*Maybe a new Fuel Filter

A few questions:

*Is it running a fuel regulator?

*Bigger injectors ECT..

*Any other modification you know about?

If your running bigger injectors, bigger AFM's, cams ect you most defiantly need a tune. a full list of mods will help.

It’s hard to explaining everything set by step. Try getting it to a specialist or a tuner to source out the problem.

The last thing you want to do is throw $100 worth of plugs at it when your chasing a gremlin. A $20 set of coppers will be fine.

A simple fouled plug or split/popped off cooler hose can give the problems you describe.

Have you tried a new set of plugs?

But as you mentioned the problem has come and gone I would say its likely to be ignition related.

And as alluded to by Paul, if the power fc wasnt tuned when connected up to your engine, which is modified, then that wont help much either.

ok............ i took off the breather hoses on the rocker covers and blanked them off.

i re checked tha gaps in the new spark plugs (oops forgot to gap them), put the mines comp back in after changing it for the pfc again and the car runs!!!!!!!!!! lacking power and still running heaps rich but atleast

now the motor behaves under load....... going to take the pfc and car to a tuner and c whats wrong.

according to the last owner of the car that pfc spent 14hrs getting tuned for this motor set up...

buggerd if i know y it isnt working rite.... :whistling: tha mines computer f**ked out on me originaly

so im afraid to put it down to being the comp

    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
    • Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention
    • So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34
    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
