Ok so i pulled finger this morning at finally got my RB25DE+T finished.

Its got spark, and its got fuel pressure, but the injectors arent opening...

Vital Info -

Car is using a RB25DE (R33) with:

RB20 Loom

RB20 ECU

RB20 CoilPacks

RB25 NA injectors

RB20 AFM

RB25 CAS

RB25 TPS

What i had to do was cut the injector plugs off the RB25 loom and replace the injector plugs in the RB20 loom with the said RB25 items. This was simple, as all the signal wires are the same colour as the RB20 ones, however the common earth is a different (yet constant) colour..

Ok so problem: when i tested with a test light, the common earth on the injector loom will light up the test light when it is earthed on the battery's negative terminal.

Why arent i getting a signal to the injectors?

Is the CAS (which i know controls the injector pulse) not compatible with the RB20 ECU?

The CAS looks identicle, and the plug goes straight on, but the part numbers are different.

:P ,,,, that is me right now.

Because it's a common power, not a common earth? So i'm assuming your injectors have no power maybe?

Except your test light says you have power.

You wouldn't have spark if the cas was the wrong one, though there are some differences between early rb25 and rb20 ones i think you have gotten lucky maybe.

Anyone know if the rb25de injectors are high of low impedance? 20 are high. 25 may be low and popped something. easy enough to measure on the car with a multimeter.

Check that the injector ground wire at the ecu is earthed. Can't find my pinout diagram so can't tell you the pin off the top of my head.

check for error codes

check fuses and wiring back to the ecu, jury rig a positive off the battery directly to the common power wire for the injectors to ensure you have power.

yeah your right, if the CAS wasnt working, it would not spark!

So that rules that theory out...

The Injector loom is earthed at the two earth points on the upper radiator hose inlet next to the two temp sensors...

The block is earthed out correctly...

ill buy a node light tommorow and have a looksee... man i hate wiring!

bump

experts needed please

As stated earlier, there is NO common ground for the injectors, thay are fed battery voltage from the EFI relay, the ECU turns the injectors on by grounding them. You should have battery voltage to BOTH sides of the injectors with the key on, engine off. Should be battery voltage all the way to the ECU unless engine is cfranking or running, then it should flash on and off and ecu grounds them./

ok i understand that now.

1st i will check if the injectors are getting pulsed at the main injector plug, then i will chase it back up the loom from there..

is said injector loom fused? maybe i have blown a fuse?

Man you gotta be serious, I'm having the same problem.. just after I ripped apart my plenum and took out my injectors to be cleaned and flow tested..

now i cant start my car.. just put everything back together like 1 hour ago and nothing.. no injector pulse....

you dont have the injector 12v live hooked up. the negative signal will be pulsing fine from the ecu that doesnt stuff up.

You know what the common wire is on the loom, I thinks its light grey for a rb25 loom, you need to hook this up to a 12v relay and it will start as mentioned.

Dont hook it up to a live without a relay.

Edit: just notices you have a 20 loom, so whatever the constant wire is for that prob wont be light grey.

ok so i've got power to both sides of the injector plugs...

i just dont have a good pulsed earth...

my ECU thinks its controlling RB20 260cc top feed injectors

but its really controlling RB25 260cc side feed injectors...

do i need a resistor pack?

Grab a multimeter and check the impendence on the rb25 injectors, just put it on ohms and put it on the injector pins.

    • Seat of the pants assessment of the new intake: The car is way less "doughy" when hitting the loud pedal, especially off idle when stopped or in traffic, I did use a cheapo lazer thermal thingo to measure the temp around where the pod filter got its air, it was between 55 - 60°C, in saying this the car was shut off and not moving, so the OEM intake pipe was not supplying any fresh air to where the pod was when the car was at least moving A weird bonus was induction noise on the throttle in the cabin increased a bit,  I was worried that I was actually going to lose some of that induction noise I love so much, outside though, when I got the daughter to do a WOT drive by pass for me, the induction noise has increased alot when on the throttle, not quite ITB doort, but well up there I'm extremely happy with the results and have been exploring the country roads in the region  As for house mods: 1.New front fence is up and is awesome, it really upgraded how the joint looks from the street, and the added security is nice 2. Electricians have replace some interior lights, and with more lighting in the garage, a few new motion detecting lights out the front above the garage, front room, and at the front door, which I have already found heaps helpful coming and going, also now has fancy pants CCTV all round the house The only hold point for power though is the solar and batteries due to supply issues, although this will happen over the next few weeks 3. I have done a heap of landscaping out the front and I'm almost ready to do a new small retaining wall with some nice blocks to replace the brick and cemented in rocks around the raised garden beds cemented in river stone "was the fashion at the time" the house was built. I currently have a pallet of retaining wall blocks and 2 bulka bags of 20mm blue metal to replace the wood chip that is in the raised garden beds around the house 4. I now have 3 big raised garden beds for out the back to grow some vegetables, about 70cm high, 200cm long and 100cm wide 5. My 2 compost bins are already pretty full with brown, green and kitchen waste from the landscaping I'vedone so far, but they will probably take a few months to break down, so anything else that gets chopped, trimmed, and kitchen waste will just start filling the base of the raised garden beds to about 30cm before I start throwing 40cm of good compost, and stuff, for the vegetables to grow in, I'll need a few ton of compost and soil, but the local supplier can sent me bulka bags of the stuff Basically the logs, wood chips and a few strategically placed rocks for drainage, will give the beds some good organic materials down low to break down over time, and they will hold moisture during the warmer months to save the water in my big arse water tank if we don't get alot of rain So, all in all, the car and house mods are going well, and I'm really enjoying being retired, I sleep in too 0700 and slowly plod around inside until I feel like actually doing anything, and only work in the yard for as long as want, which has actually been alot over the last few weeks,  although when you look at it, it seems that not a huge amount of work has been done,  until I look at the before I started the work pics Happy days and good times indeed 
    • hahaha yeah. Plan is to get side skirts and probably just rear pods. But going to do them one-by-one. I've got a set that I really like from RHDJapen, but that one isn't shipped to AU. So need to find someone who can get it for me
    • Here's an idea, answer the questions I asked you as they are trying to work out WHY the LSD will be binding up in a straight line.
    • You haven't driven many modern cars then have you? Most of them have sfa steering feel with their stupid electric bullshit steering systems.
