Had a nice surprise waiting for me at work this morning.

Last Years 300C Safety car from the V8s was waiting for me at my office :laugh:. Straight through 3" exhaust sounds REALLY TOUGH. Dont know what they have done but wheel spin when every you try and drive it either forward and back ( and not at 100% throttle :) )

i can say its the only time i have had TOLL paperwork stating

Departure : Mount Panorama

Location : ************

it looks as though it has had a very hard 6300Km's. plenty of paint damage, skid panels on the ground. It feels like it has done 600,000Kms.

Driving a left hand drive is really weird. Got some pics just need to find the cord to get them off the phone

fitted a GFB Stealth FX bov today, got it for 200$. got it on full 'silent' plumb back mode with spring strength around 80%, sounds funny when you let your foot off the gas..... :laughing-smiley-014:

out with the video camera Brendan you know we want to hear it :thumbsup:

hahahaha will do. did a recording on my mobile phone as I was testing. cant hear the 'flutter' sound under off-acceleration with only mild boost. with full bost all you hear are big "whooshes" but its the flutter that sounds funny. like a wrx with a dogbox and megaphone-atmo bov. not hugely audible but its there.

just need to add a small correction to the safc up at around 6000rpm, got a little ping.

funny shite. gone from wanting to keep it quiet to hiflow turbo, pod, whooshy bov, rumbling Kakimoto muffler, etc. makes a fair old racket now. sounds cool tho

;)

yeah i was thinking of new muffler 5" Kakimoto but want 5 stud conversion and new rims first if i do change i want subtle note all the time with a roar when above 4,000 atm its loud all the time

hey i think i forgot to give you a trader rating for that CPU sitting on my shelf ;)

Hey brendan!

How ya doing? How's the knee pulling up post surgery? Hope all is well and your enjoying (as best you can) your time off work. Sounds like you been having some fun with the car, will have to swing by and have a better look one weekend :down:

Cheers

Lee

yeah 4 sure !

:down:

pretty sore the past 2 days just after leaning over the bonnet installing the bov for half hour on saturday.

damn, all good tho coming along. start physio, etc this week.

:) w00t MV Autos today getting the shift kit installed and auto serviced :)

nearing the end of the mods

no more boooooooost, high rpm goodness, whoooooosh, boooost, higher rpm stress, ign cut, nothing.....nothing.......nothing......(ping), flare + change.

just BANG change

lol

    • 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.
