The problem (knock/ping) seems to be a single piston issue. We suspect a blocked injector or two. The afr's are super rich as I have previously dialed in more fuel to cushion any potential damage.

The result was a ping at about 4700rpm that prevented us reving it any higher.power: 230 rwhp - afr : high 9 with very little timing advance

170odd rwkw with 9 a/f ratio?? so ur car is a freak then!:D

Dave,

230rwhp (172rwkw) @ 4700 is bloody impressive! Given that peak power isn't till 6800 stock. If you've dialed the HKS cam gear for more top end then the peak might be even higher?

My estimate of mid 190rwkw is lookin' good :mad: It might go even higher!? Especially when you're running conservative timing & nasty rich.

While on the A/FR's, 9:1 isn't very healthy @ all :) You might have dialed in a little too much cushioning! Not quite as bad as too lean, but still not good.

Yepp, just as we thought, Rev's got one of those freak 1995 cars :uh-huh:

It's good to see that the ping issue 'shouldn't' be anything major.

Are you getting them cleaned using the ultrasonic bath way?

Once you get the ping sorted, and back for a re-tune, I reckon you'll see your 12 second pass :uh-huh:

Well done

It's not a freak car.

The first dyno it ever had (over 2 years ago) showed 180 rwhp odd on a dyno day with other cars and whilst a heathly figure it wasn't the highest.

the mods and tuning I've done are responsible for the power and considerable torque it's making (afr's uptop aside).

Mine's a 95, but it's no freak, hell I can't even pull the 1/4 in less than a 14 right now... so bleh!

considering dave ran a 13.4 without the AFC, i still cant see what i'm doing wrong...bleh!

So let me get this rite? 170rwkws at 4800RPM????

DAIM.

Pretty respectable figures considering engine mods are turbo back exhaust, panel filter, thermal wrap, 10psi, cam gear, afr of high 9's (untuned s-afc), and a little advanced timing (did I leave anything out?).

I'd be happy with that, that's for sure :D

Most people get less than that with a 'professional tune' at a workshop :)

Rev - are you getting the injectors clean by an ultrasonic bath?

Cheers

    • 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.
