GDay Myron,

Welcome (under better circumstances next time of course) !!

What are the symptoms as you turn the key?

Any tell-tale markers in the past few cold starts?

Any rough running within the 1st 5mins?

Cheers,

Terry

BTW is it the Pulsar or the GTR? Haha

heheheh Its the GTR , Pulsar GTI-R has some cosmetic damage so it isn't running

symptoms are , it cranks but wont start. Never had any problems just that it wont start suddenley

well what i have done till now is i have checked the fuses and relay and they are good.

i removed the fuel feed return line and no fuel , so pump isn't feeding

i didn't have a volt meter so today i'm going to with those following steps that the manual refers to

Hiya,

Besides the question mark over the pump, you didn't just fill 'er up before coming home last did you? AFM?

T

yep i did fill her up , i must have a lot of bad luck if both pumps are toast.

i think both pumps are good it has to be something else

Well in that case, IF YOUR CAR AIN'T AT FAULT, I'd at least call the Servo and put in an official request to have the fuel quality assessed!

It'll take up to a week to get the answer.

And get a sample of your own fuel out of the tank as well - preferably from the bottom.

Meanwhile, you'll get more info from the brains trust...

Problem solved. It was a connector pin that wasn't making any contact in the FPCM

thanks

    • Working through possible solutions of converting my mechanical speedo.    Anyone know what type of speedo sensor the factory r34 gtr getrag has ? what the output is ? I assume its not a VSS and more a voltage like earlier speedo sensors ? Can an ECU read it ?  
    • roof rail delete used to be a thing, they were made locally for a while too
    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
