Recently today my R34 had a problem which was found out due to the Immobilizer system. the car would not start due to the immobilizer not deactivating so i would be able to start my car. had to call up RACV and they had to power the starter motor manually for it to start up so i could drive it home and as soon as i were to turn it off i cannot turn it back on until i get the immobilizer fixed. would anyone happen to know a good auto electrician or someone with knowledge on immobilizers to give me any contact details on trying to fix this immobilizer problem or to just basically take it out?

Cheers

+1. or if you can get it going see stylyn in boronia and let them sort it out.

I got it towed back yesterday to the dealer SEI motors where i bought it from. a mechanic there spent all day today looking and checking stuff with it and they rung me at 5.30pm when they were closing saying that they could not find the problem with it why it would not start. so not exactly sure the problem. there electrician is checking it tomorrow to see if he can find any problems otherwise im not sure why my car wont start. when you try to it doesnt even try you just hear a clicking noise which sounds like its coming from the starter motor. the only way to start it temporarily was using this device RACV supplied which pwoered the starter motor manually but the car wasnt running to its normal potential. couldnt go over 3k revs and acceraltion was very very slow. took about 10 seconds to get to 60 lol.. so yeah. am not quiet sure what can be done at this point in time.

IF anyone has heard of problem like this before or something similiar please feel free to let me know

Thanks

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      By Duncan · Posted

      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.
