hi guys went to start the 32 yesterday and all that it was doing is the starter solioind was clicking thats bout it i checked the batt and even used a next door neighbours ford battery to try and jump but same problem im going out now to give the starter a bit of a bash and check the fuses but i dont think that will

help i think its an electrical problem cause when you turn it to start all the warning lights flicker and the hicas makes a weird gurgling noise as opposed to the usual fuel pump soud it has any help would be greatly appreciated

cheers josh

has it got fuel? sounds stupid but mine did something similar even though it was reading almost 1/4 of a tank. if you've got an aftermarket fuel pump they quite often don't have the same pickup as std.

another thing is check that the battery terminals are secure and tight. sometimes they make enough contact for a while then the wriggle a little the last time u drove it and now dont have the contact to draw the needed power from the battery

yeah it has fuel it dosent crank over it is only the starter solionid clicking and battery terminals are secure but i need to do get a battery charger or a new battery i left the door a little bit open last night after working on it and its dead,and i checked all fuses this morn as well and there fine i think it has something to do with the thermos i wired up but i took the positive wire off the battery and only left the earth connected to the relay and it still did it so then i unplugged the relays and tried again and it still did it,also i turned the motor over buy hand to make sure it wasent seized or the starter wasent seized

use jumper cables... with a car that is running. if the battery dies to less than like 9-10V skylines dont like starting

sounds to me like the battery is discharged

Just an idea here might be way off....but take the coil packs off put it to metal (something in engine bay) and crank to see if it sparks.

Its not even cranking over so its not going to be a spark or fuel issue.

      Took a little trip  went to nismo hoping the get my fuel tank hoses and unfortunately they told me they didn’t have stock luckily I was able to go to a Nissan parts store and they were able to order them in for me  then can home and cleaned the tank with some degreaser and fitted the new hoses before putting it back in the car

      100% I’ll hack into the 33. Strap a turbo onto the RB25DE and/or put the 25 head on a 30 block. 33 passed in cos the reserve was too high. I’ll try lowballing it again and negotiate. Aim is to have it landed and on the road for under 15k, then spend the same amount on top in mods.

      It's generally best practise to run 1x run without VCT enabled, then 1x run enabled till redline. Overlay the two torque graphs and you'll find the desired RPM to turn off VCT. Sometimes, it might be even worthwhile turning off VCT earlier control torque/cylinder pressure and using VCT purely to spool the turbo.

      First time I ever have issues with Amazon, but my wife often tells me to keep an eye out for fakes. It finally got me. I wrapped up the conversation with Gates. The gentlemen I was talking to seemed to hate his job but the response time on their technical support is outstanding. He stated that the hose is marked with some variation of "SAE J30R10" but that if you only purchase a 1 foot length like I did, it is possible to get a cut between markings and have a blank hose. To no ones surprise, he stated the swelling and "gummyness" isn't normal and to replace/buy from somewhere else (He mentioned NAPA). I'll toss a small end of the new one in gas for a few days before pulling the hanger out again, just to be safe.  Hose should arrive Monday. For those running multiple pump in tank hangers, you know the joys of getting them out and back in. I'm surprised I haven't destroyed my level float yet.  Lastly once I wrap all of this up, I'm planning on hitting the dyno again in 2 weeks while I'm on vacation. I realized recently that my VCT is set to turn off at 5000RPM. I'm surprised it wasn't increased while I was on the dyno last. I'm expecting I can increase it to ~6500RPM, if not more. Should hopefully get another 15-20kw out of it. I also want him to revisit my knock thresholds. I'm occasionally getting false knock around 3000rpm.
