Back to the begining, must be the inj or ECU tune if fuel connections OK.

Have the Inj been recently flowed or tested for thoughput - I left mine on bench for two months and would not work as gummed up inside.

Are they ticking or actuating that you can hear with a screwdriver on them on your ear? Check plugs for wetness of fuel in each cyl if unsure.

Maybe ROM tune is out in timing or fuel maps on start.

Are you getting any error codes from ECU?

NewKleer's LCD Consult just diagnosed my problems via datalogging software that told me the timing was advancing to 60' BTDC at 3000RPM on the road.

Hold a screw driver on the injector and listen to see if its ticking when cranking, if it is then its a fuel supply issue. Take the fuel feed line off and make sure it purges when on reders. Does it attempt to kick at all? If it does not then I would assume the injectors are not firing what so ever which should indicate a wiring or EC tuning issue as already suggested.

Have you used the correct impedence injectors right? Also after cranking can you smell fuel?

If you can smell fuel than it may be another issue entirely like spark.

The AAC unplugged wouldn't cause the car not to start though.

Maybe start then stall if its adjusted incorrectly but nothing a little press of the accelerator couldn't get going.

is that cause AAC is normally open (and therefore ull get a really high idle is disconnected?)

The idea is to set the aac valve so that idle is 650rpm (R32) with the plug disconnected, with the plug connected (solanoid) its used to raise idle when needed (powersteer, a/c & prevent stalling etc)

The solenoid shouldn't be relied upon to get you your 650rpm as this is when hunting occurs.

If its wound all the way in and the car won't idle the car will still start but stall.

    • Given you're running a 2.8 and my 2.5 is not really like for like, I suspect there could be a bit more timing you could give it. What is the kW yield per degree you're putting through it? Here's my E85 map to give you an idea, where it was I could still get another 3~4kW per degree thrown at it.  
    • It turns out that Setrab make a fan specifically for the oil cooler which is great and I've installed it with minimal swearing. I removed my 2x 12in push fans from the front of my aircon condenser and wired them into this. My main thermo fans kick on when I use the aircon anyway and would effectively already be working as puller fans through the condensor which is infront of the rad. The push fans (understandably) didn't really do much in the config they were previously in so now they're out. Now we're on to the "Oil fan doesn't really do much either!". Yes I'll duct it next if it does nothing in heavy use which it shouldn't. But hey, the object exists and fits great and is cool. Let me have this. The car is still in the "do my fittings leak oil now? do my wheels actually rub?" phase. I did a spirited drive on them and didn't hear or feel anything. Then I got back home and noticed there were grind marks on the inside of the rims, though I couldn't see where they were touching I got out the grinder and attacked the suspects. Note: I do not know how to use a grinder. Then I realised I had dragged my new rims across my concrete driveway before I did this drive. I didn't think I had damage at that time when I briefly looked...... but remembered this occurred after I did all the angle grinding. The grinding on the wheels in some very specific spots. It's not around the whole rim for example, which lines up with dragging it across concrete more than hitting a suspension component for even 1 full rotation. So everything is currently painted and taped up and I need to test it some more to see if it really IS rubbing, but from inside the car it doesn't feel like it is. In other news I attempted to do a before and after comparison of the heads/cam upgrade thing. Dynos lie, everything is in different measurements. Here is the data from the sandown back straight. Car go faster than before. Vroom vroom.
    • Here's my base ignition. +3 correction to redline when shooting water/meth which is always on. Looking at my old ignition table, I should be able to add 1-2 degree's next time I'm on the dyno.  Let me know your thoughts. 
    • Given what I know now - same haha, but this was 12 years ago with second hand 740cc Nismo injectors in my S15 daily, I was too busy hunting elsewhere for the issue to even look at the injectors, running through some cleaner was a happy coincidence haha
    • Not a terrible idea. But if I ever had concerns that my injectors were sufficiently dirty to be causing me a problem, they would be out of the engine and onto the actual injector cleaner/testing bench.
