ok wasnt sure. thanks. all the shops were closed when i became in need of one so i couldnt ask around. and like i said, i cant really waste time tommorow not knowing whos supplies them as it needs to go in tommorow and be ready.

whos the cheapest do u know? im looking at paying around the $200 mark but im worried the bigger places like motor mate and sprint will want alot more. anyone know?

Also try Petro-Ject SA they sell a lot of Bosch parts to the trade (fuel injectors, coils, pumps exchange factory ecu's etc), see what they can do for you. They may even be able to give you a cheaper alternative. 910 external pumps that VL's use are a fair bit cheaper from memory but flow nearly just as much fuel.

Think you'll probably be pushing you know what up hill to get an 040 for $200 though, especially if you want it right now.

Edit: Just looked in my Bosch book

910 flows 130 litres/minute at 5 bar

040 flows 102 litres/minute at 6.5 bar

I don't know why they don't give the ratings at the same pressure. Flow being inversely proportional to pressure if you ran the 040 at 5 bar instead of 6.5 it would flow about the same as the 910.

ahk, not sure bout externals, im trying to keep cabin noise down a bit, ive got the rumble of a straight through exhuast blaring already, so im trying to keep an annoying high pitched squeal at a minimum.

R32Abuser: yeh pretty sure pump daddy's well and truely gone, he hasnt done business in a while.

Cubes: im assuiming u mean the 040? yeh im not real fussed on price, but anything over 250 isnt worth it IMO, i just needed it ASAP. if i can get one tomorow i might be able to still get it done, but its pushing it.

pkblade: will do, ill give him a PM now and a call tommorow. hes a member on ns.com i beleive.

In the forced induction thread there is a recent post about $170 040 pumps, from a melbourne ford place. I bought mine from them, off ebay, and had it in 2 days.

Great service, under $200 delivered.

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      By 25zenki · Posted

      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.

      I checked spark on all cylinders and they all visually have spark with the plug pulled and grounded, but plug 1 is the only one that fouled. This was a running swap that blew up and was rebuilt by a machine shop, put a new wiring specialties harness and did all gaskets, studs, and bolts while it was out.  compression is 135-150 across all cylinders. Aside from that from my understanding with the z32 ecu and maf the car should start regardless. The wiring for TPS and the dual 02 sensor/ dual knock sensor stuff shouldn’t actually stop the car from starting or even running well, (just slightly rich)  they just give fault codes. Car supposedly is supposed to start as long as you have z32 afm and ecu with the nistune base map and that’s info coming from a well known and trusted tuner who does a lot with SR/RB (Rsenthalpy). After more trouble shooting today where I’m at right now is that the cas is sending signal to the injectors they click while spinning the rotor, Fuel pressure is now set at 43psi, all cylinders have good compression and all of the plugs looked great (just wet with fuel) except for cylinder 1 which was very black (cylinder 1 has 150psi compression). all of the coils generate spark if pulled out and grounded out on the head. On the fuel pump car just pops into the exhaust. On starting fluid car will fire off. Hard to tell if all cylinders are firing off but definitley a couple. sounds like all of them but it’s only for 3-5 seconds hard to tell.
