Rb30det Not Starting

Hi all,

got the rb30det all wired up to a power fc

have got spark, have got injectors, when i turn the key maybe 1/5 attempts i will get a 1/2second kick and that is all...

i dont have the knock sensors connected as i dont have any - will this affect the timing so it wouldnt start?

also, will turning the cas while cranking possible give it the right spark/injector combination for timing?

thanks

Sensors wont matter no, and moving the cas shouldnt really effect it.

Just set the cas up with the 3 screws in the middle and leave it.

Sounds to me like its a fuel related issue still, take the return pipe off and with the ign on check to make sure it primes out of the rail ok. Also what car is this in, an r33 I take it?

Also take one injector and coil pack plug off and test to make sure they both have a constant 12V with ign on.

ok, i definately have spark

fuel primes out of the return on ign

i put the positive of my multimeter on an injector plug and the negative on the body of the car and while cranking i didnt see any change in voltage - it wasnt anywhere near 12v

any suggestions? do i need a resistor pack for the injectors on a series 1 rb25det?

thanks

Platnium has got his running in a VL with a PFC.

There is a constant 12v feed from some where to the injectors.

The ECu then triggers the injector by grounding them. Essentially its reversed as to how you are thinking.

Pull a sparky out after a crank, you will know if its then getting fuel or not.

AFM is wired in correctly? Check the PFC H/c's etc .. sensor sw menu to check all sensors are showing correctly.

i dont have the afm hooked up...

i dont have a HC...

2 plugs had fuel in em... it will give a 1/2second cough after about 30 mins of priming and cranking

well atleast i know spark is working

it doesnt really matter about injectors as im going for a LPG straight conversion so they will be disconnected and have some plugs in the holes...

That is your problem there. The motor will still start without the AFM albeit very rough, you need to keep the throttle open on about half too. There will be a plug with spade terminals near the AFM plug on that same branch of loom, you need to give the injectors a 12V live on one of the terminals as there is a seperate loom in the skylines that takes care of the 12V live for the injectors, its not done thru the ecu loom at all, the ecu only pulses ground signals to the injectors.

On my r31 I hooked it up to the eccs relay which works fine. It will be a red wire on this plug. If you need more info just ask I can mebe take some pics or whatever.

Dont hook a direct 12V line up to the injectors, it must be done thru a relay or you will damage them, you should also install a 10 amp inline fuse for them.

Did you also check the 12V on the coil packs? They are supplied 12V thru the eccs relay, which you also need to give a 12V live from the orginal VL loom above where the rb30e ECU was located near the kick panel.

i will ge tthe afm sorted in the next couple of days.

i have the fuel lines going in the right way

wiring - i have a +12v going to the rb25det eccs loom and also another +12v coming from IGN, so i was under the impression the eccs loom controlled the injectors and coil packs? maybe im wrong... but thats the only wiring i did for my rb20det into a VL a while back...

thanks all for the input

Sorry deleted my reply as I was giving a advice re non kicking over and upon re reading your title thread it appears that it is kicking over.

MY BAD.

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By Kapr · Posted

      Yeah i found that alot of parts can be wrong or "very" hard to get the real right one. I already bought some brakes years ago on me "old" GT calipers and they were wrong too 😄  I told them too. Even send them pictures...but they said "EBC catalogue has them on my car... So i dont know what their answer will be. I call monday them and let them know that they are really not on my car. If they were they would be already on a car...

      Welcome to Skyline ownership. Yes, it is entirely possible parts websites get things wrong. There's a whole world of inaccuracies out there when it comes to R34 stuff (and probably 33 and 32). Lots of things that are 'just bolt on, entirely interchangable' aren't. Even between S1 and S2 R34's. Yes they have a GTT item supposedly being 296mm. This is incorrect. I would call whoever you got them from and return them and let them know the GTT actually uses 310mm rotors. Depending on where you got them from your experience and success will obviously vary.

      Hi...a bit a "development" on the brakes. I spoke to the guys where i get brakes from...and they are saying that 296mm EBC are for R34 GT-T. I then went to their site: https://www.ebcbrakes.com/vehicle/uk-row/NISSAN/Skyline (R34)/ and search for my car(R34 GT 1998 - it has GTT brakes) and it show me this USR1229 number and they are rly 296mm rotors... So now iam rly confused... The rotors i have now on the car are 310mm asi shown... So where is the problem? Does the whole EBC got it wrong or my calipers are just...idk know what?

      Oh What the hell, I used to get a "are you sure you want to reply, this thread is XX months old" message. Maybe a software update remove that. My bad.

      R34 Gtt Wheel Offset Advice

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      This is a recipe for disaster* Note: Disaster is relative. The thing that often gets lost in threads like this is what is considered acceptable poke and compromise between what one person considers 'good' looks and what someone else does. The quoted specs would sit absurdly outside the guards with the spacers mentioned and need  REALLY thin tyres and a LOT of camber AND rolling the guards to fit. Some people love this. Some people consider this a ruined car. One thing is for certain though, rolling the guards is pretty much mandatory for any 'good' fitment (of either variety). It is often the difference between any fitment remotely close to the guards. "Not to mention the rears were like a mm from hitting the coilovers." I have a question though - This spec is VERY close to what I was planning to buy relative to the inboard suspension - I have an offset measuring tool on the way to confirm it. When you say "like a mm" do you mean literally 1mm? Or 2mm? Cause that's enough clearance for me in the rear :p I actually found the more limiting factor ISNT the coilover but the actual suspension arms. Did you take a look at how close those were?
