recently had a full respray (engine out) and just dropped the engine back in but it wont start. Everything is hooked up properly and its turning over and getting fuel and spark but it just wont start. Has anyone had this problem before? Ive searched but come up with nothin.

spark was alright as nothin was taken out before or after engine was in or out. And the battery was alright to it goes flat from cranking over to much but its chared again now. Ive checked all the fuses as well.

All i could find was some guy had same problem which was an injector fuse (dunno where they are) And people have had a problem with the CAS but i dunno how to tell if its not working.

I just noticed then when tryin to crank the car over theres no oil pressure on my guage, after afew cranks the light goes away and then stop cranking for a few seconds and straight away the pressure light comes back on could this be a problem?

not a problem, wouldnt stop it from starting, get a mechanic friend to check if its sparking and pulsing the injectors, or are you mechanically minded?

one thing i have learnt is that even though a customer says it has spark is to check it any way, 9 times out of ten there wrong.

not saying your wrong but....

    • Time will tell, they're doing all the admin stuff at the moment. I've submitted all the required details, photos, etc.   I was under the impression that DC coupling is the best approach, i.e.: Solar Array -> Battery Invertor -> Battery  Where as AC Coupling is simpler, however less efficient, i.e.: Solar Array -> Solar Invertor -> Battery Invertor -> Battery
    • The price is really great for that kind of capacity. I thought similar setups cost way more. How's your efficiency been with the DC-coupling? I've heard sometimes there can be a bit of a performance loss.
    • Long time no random post about shit. So I went down this deep deep rabbit hole of battery storage for the home, ended up locking in a 41.9kWh Fox ESS EQ4800 with 9 units stacked. Battery uses Lithium Iron Phosphate, similar to what you find in those deep cycle boat/caravan batteries. And yes, why did I go with a cheapie brand and not like Synergy? simply because I don't plan to stay at this house for more than another 3~5 years.  The entire install, DC coupling (removal of existing invertor, connecting the current 6.6kW array direct to the battery invertor), new 8kW invertor is $6K all up (after all the rebates etc.). Going with this lot: https://www.aussiesolarbatteries.com.au/ It did seem a bit too good to be true, however seems like the Whirlpool community has vetted it and when it comes to this kind of stuff, they seem to be all over it: https://forums.whirlpool.net.au/thread/9pxj8482?p=38   I've requested for the battery to be installed outside, next to my meter board and not inside - rather have it combust and ignite outside lol.    
    • In Vic it would be a defect regardless of whether or not you cut a hole in the sheetmetal for the return pipe. The rules in Vic are shitful, and are generally interpreted as you can "make 2 mods to the intake system". Putting an FFP and an FMI onto it will almost certainly be seen as some huge number of intake mods. You really need to speak to an engineer before doing this stuff in VIC.
    • planning a r34 rb25 de+t with some other work, rather just have it done in a shop due to space limitations any recommendations? I have most the parts already I seen online Moore Performance and DR Drift any advice appreciated thanks
