The boys changed the transfer case on saturday in the hope of getting some front drive. Didn't help much, the best they could get was 10% or so directed to the front. That's why you see pics of it black-tracking everywhere.

Aha.. That makes sense. It certainly looked like it was having traction issues!

yeah, there is something not quite right with awd. not exactly sure what but it's not getting enough front drive. we changed transfer case on saturday and it was a little better in the morning, but not much. mark reckons possibly a sensor failure or awd ecu not receiving an input (like TPS) as it's getting some pressure but not enough, which means it's baking the transfer case which means it gets worse and worse. on top of that they have a fair bit more torque than before and trying to put that power down on 265 semis is not easy, hell even some of the evos which are much lighter and with less toque run 285s!

the car went so well for it's first outing. nothing broke and apart from the little awd issue it ran absolutely perfectly. a credit to mark and russ for their hard work and all the other guys who worked on it too. mark drove the absolute wheels off the thing too and watching the in-car last night just goes to show he must have a giant set a it looks scary to drive. scary fun that is.... :banana: i'm sure russ will post some when he gets home, but i'd say the car is wheel spinning about 3/4s of the time! It's sideways from turn 5 all the way up the hill and onto the bridge through 3rd and 4th. then sideways off the bridge all the way to the S.

and yes cnj tune it.

We had the same or similar problem when we were running the Autronic ECU...it needs a voltage divider buffer circuit fitted to allow the attessa to share the same signal as the TPS without pulling it (the voltage level) down under load. The Vi-PEC had an issue too but was a much less complicated fix.

Hi Guys

well back from superlap,

and all is good, car is still in one piece and running great!

obviously have alot of things to sort through and keep building the car as it wasnt really finished ( but are they ever).

we need to get the 4wd drive sorted asap!! thanks for the advice paul will be looking at pressures and codes etc pronto. then off to get swaybars made as nopne were on the car for superlap, and

bump steer arms for the front end. then different diff ratios wilkl be changed as we couldnt use the torque to full advantage as we had too shorter ratios top speed was 250 down the front straight on the limiter before the start finish line!! ( we kept raising the limiter but far from ideal)

thanks for the comments

cheers russ'

here is some incar

Awesome incar Russ, just loving the power on oversteer :down:

The box is a Holinger?

Mustve felt good passing your old R32

it's a stock box, but with an ebay short shifter for quicker shifts. works well. :bunny:

seems as though you have the Tomei 1 gear set. had a look at ratios today and your ratios are quite close compared to mine which are the -15 gear set.

Still have some setting up to do, comes on boost nicely.

Keep up the good work Russ and crew.

All the best, and always keep in the loop with the development advancements. Good learning experience for us non circuit boys...

Hey Guys

We shot Marks car over the weekend and the feature, along with Superlap will be coming out in Motive DVD volume 2 which is due on shelf in June.

Motive DVD Volume 1 is based on the Red BUll Drifting World Championship and will be out start of May.

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      By 25zenki · Posted

      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

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      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

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      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.
