First off Hello,

I'm in need of some help and advice. I'm from the United States, where sadly we were not blessed with the skylines like most of the world, but we can get the motors fairly easy. I have 95 nissan 240sx (silvia) with a s2 Rb25det swapped in. I've put a z32 maf in it and now i can't get it to run like i want. I'm using a safc II to correct the input/ouput signal. That is what i'm having an issue with. I've been told 2 in 4 out, but thats not working, it runs crazy rich, and won't idle. with it set to 0 in 0 out it will drive fine and idle fine till it warms up then it won't idle. I need some pointers. im getting to my buddies dyno sometime next week, but need help in the meantime. thanks.

im assuming by 'maf' you mean afm?

And as far as im aware, you need an aftermarket ecu (piggyback or standalone) tuned for the z32 afm to account for the readings the new afm gives.

edit: whats your reasoning for installing a z32 afm its pretty much stock? the standard afm wouldnt be close to being maxed out

nah the z32 can be used with a safc2 to correct it.

I've never used a safc2 to run a z32 so unfortunately i wont be much help. I'm sure theres a few guys on here that will know though

i do have an aftermarket piggy back...apexi safc 2. i put the z32 afm on because the stock one was missing from the motor. the car has more parts waiting to be put on, but i want it to run good first.

did a quick search and 2in / 6 out seems to be the setting to get the z32 working.

Give that a go and see what happens

it idled but wouldn't rev past 4k. 3in/ 6 out, will not idle but rev all the way out and was running really rich. its almost like if you have the bov vented to the atomosphere...it just shuts off.

well 2in/4 out has to be it....its running but really rich.....would fuel normally need to be pulled? i noticed the car has a adj. fuel pressure regulator on it....whats stock fuel pressure on a rb25det?....also i noticed that when i unplug a vaccum line it runs fine...but when its capped off it runs like crap.....where in a stock rb25 are these lines routed to? thanks for all the help.....

    • Depending on how long the car sat it is very possible for injectors to be stuck open or closed, I'd get them cleaned and flow tested. Other than that, obviously when the loom changes and the car doesn't start any more....the loom is suspect so some tracing / comparing may be required
    • 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.
