Hey Cara,

That is not good news, do you think you can get it fixed before autosalon or not. >_<

This is why i have an everyday driver as i am scared that this would happen to my baby if i have to park it everywhere.

Hope you can get it fixed. :thumbsup:

That sucks Cara, too many bastards out there. You getting it fixed at All Make Crash on Jacobsen Crs? If so, I'm sure I'll see it there this week as I'm at trade school again :D

nah im getting it done at L & M Paint and Panel down at the city dismantlers complex. Lleyton been good to me :(

he is also gonna go round the car and do any touch ups that need to done.....so she is gonna look pwretty!!!

ill try and get some pics up tommorow when i drop her off and take the gaffa tape off............it mite not look to bad for some but thats not the point..........its just a full on pain in the arse.........any damage done to any car before they have a show is just not fair!!!!

people that dont leave their details after hitting someones car better watch out for karma to come and kick their arse

and yes i would agree...........how could you miss a bright orange skyline!!!!!

Yeah its not the point thats its only $150 when that money could have been used for something not caused by you!!! sorry to hear. I had someone leave a massive dent in my old car and its a shyt feeling when you get to your car and see that some ass has hit it and left no details.

    • 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. 
    • Final update!!! Got the front bar fitted and sprayed and all sorted now. My cutouts worked great and the indicators aren’t just falling off. 😂  
    • Is this a brand new LSD? if so, have you followed any break/bed in procedure for it? Usually involves heaps of figure 8 patterns, a fluid flush.
