I should preface this post by saying I am a long time Nissan supporter & Own an R32 GT-R

BUT

At the time & looking back at he various quotations IMHO I think that Mark Skaife & Freddie Gibson were insufferably arrogant. Richo was always too much of a gentleman to really buy into the whole thing other than his brain explosion at Bathurst (Which I fully agree with). Gibbo spent many, many years trying unsuccessfully to get his cars on the pace of the rest of the teams. When he finally achieved it (With the HR31 in the ATCC & the R32) the team produced invective towards the other competitors that became progressively worse. In racing terms it was a triumph, in PR terms a disaster.

I think the key thing here is the awsome GTR and what it has achieved I think that skaife and gibbson are great drivers and I agree the PR thing was not good but as some put down the GTR winning and cheating to get to where it is I think that the History of wins the GTR had won and what it achieved in australia is somthing that no one can put down and if so are sore lossers.

I love the windfield GTR and I can only wish that the GTR will return to Australia on a profesional level .

    • 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.
