hello all, as the topic says, im moving to QLD. where u may ask.. Emerald in fact!!

just wondering if any one lives there or Rocky or any where close

any way would b good 2 meet any one up that way,

Hey i'm not aware of any members that live up there but i work out there occasionally (just did 3 weeks about a month ago). I hope you have accomodation and a decent wage sorted cos its freakin expensive to live out there! rental prices are mad..

Didn't spot any skylines up that way - its v8's, landcruisers and minitrucks as far as i saw.

Emerald is quite some way from the big smoke...

But Ska is up that way and would love to spot you driving around. He gets all excited when he sees a skyline cause there is not much up there... Other than dust and heat...

Emerald is about 250km inland from rocky...

its no good owning a decent car when most of the road u have to travel are crappy outback ones, so that is why most ppl who live in these places have 4wd etc bcoz they need them to go offroad and also for there farms. skylines are just impractical out in those areas

actually daz most of the major roads are better quality than you'd think, i was pleasantly surprised. Still, if all you can afford is a farm shack then might be a different story. A couple of streets in toowoomba and inner brisbane have by far the worst major roads i've ever driven on in qld.

Most of the main roads are OK due to the fact there is a lot of traffic and money out there. I have seen a few lines around Moranbah and a few more in Mackay. Not too maney on this site. Also the amount of 4WD's have got a lot to do with the amount of money people make there and the fact that nearly everyone owns a boat and use the 4WD to tow them. I lived there all my life. Just moved to Brisbane 12 months ago.

Haha, i'm from Toowoomba and that's very true but you never really notice it because you can never get over 45km/h due to the number of old people on the road.

    • 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.
