Have you checked for spark and fuel? Did you check the fuel pump and its fuse? To check for spark pull one pulg out and put it back in the coil and earth it out on the cam cover then get someone to crank it over. Also check to see if your plugs are wet to make sure you have fuel. If you have all these and still no go check you timing, cam and ignition.

Good luck.

your not getting lights on the dash, which means nothing is being controlled by the ECU.. is it still there?

was it stripped when it was stolen? alarm in there anywhere that could be cutting the ignition signal?

nothing was stripped. I believe when this low lives fool's drive out about 5 minutes then the car just died out founded down just 2 km from my house borbably a short somewhere I think. I just bought the car from Japan directly a few week's ago but I did not install an alarm or an imobilizer. but then what causes the light on dashboard when ignition is on stand by before starting her up, stereo, windows and light not working? what I meant in a few reply back is that none of the Light, stereo, dashboard light are contol by computer but main fuse is ok.

You mentioned you have fuel... do you have injector pulse???

I had similar issues when my ecu got fried through some wires melting in the engine bay..... after market computer though. But when it fried it took out all the interior lights only and most of the dash lights... warnings etc...

Guessing they could of crossed some wires when starting it and ended up frying the ecu... do you have a spare ecu you can use to test it? And check the wiring from the ignition barrel back to the ecu first.....

      A 1.5 way is a 2 way. It is just a 2 way with a less aggressive ramp on overrun.

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The ABS and/or TCS being missing/broken will not cause the engine to misbehave. It just casues CEL to come on and annoy you. The CEL is useless if it is always on, so you have to do the things you have to do to get rid of it, so it can be useful. Being a Stag ECU, then yes, it will not expect TCS to be present. But it will expect ABS to be present and working. You will need to either make the ABS CU talk to the ECU (don't ask me what that will take on an NA R34), and make sure the hardware is working....or, you just need to blank it out in Nistune. Do not persist with the stock ECU. You will just have problems. Gte it Nistuned. Start from there. DO YOU HAVE A BOOST SENSOR? The ECU's boost sensor that it. It is connected to the loom at the rear of the coil cover. Usually rides on the firewall on an R34, but is usually bolted down to a bracket along with all the other crap at the back of the coil cover when a Neo is dropped into another car. If you do not have it, the ECU will shit the bed. So, do you have one?

      So sadly the fuel pump etc was not it. The pump and filter is new and it is still cutting around 4000 rpm. A read something about ABS/TCS (engine is from stagea and ECU too so no TCS) and i dont know for 100% that my car has ABS. It has ABS "cube" in engine bay but i dont think it works(or at least from my braking experience). Can be something like that?  I will be driving the car next week to Nistune tuner to properly see what is wrong...

      the Tomei LSD fluid with lsd kit. frustrated that it was shaking the car to crap and affecting everything else negatively, I pulled the diff last night, and removed the lsd carrier, could not find anything wrong, however it seem to be 100 locked up acceleration, and deacceleration, wondering if they sent me a 2 way not a 1.5??  either way I installed the stock open carrier back in place. test drove everything smooth as butter again. no shake, shutter, random, what felt like clutch slip and grab or drive shaft play, etc. something differently wrong in side the lsd. I might bother taking it apart (if possible) to figure out what's going on inside this carrier, as bought too long ago to return.  only draw back is its back to a one wheel wonder.
