hey,

Ok so i have just put a new rb20 and r33 gearbox into my car, on first start up it started making a weird sound, that sound is now gone as im guessing it was just to do with no oil at top of the engine and the fact that the o-ring on injector 6 was completely screwed so it wasnt getting any fuel,

This engine was running sweet when i pulled it out of this other skyline btw,

so ive put it into my car, i got the ecu Dr Drift chipped, and also put in a Z32 afm that i also purchased off him,

My car is running ok, it runs on all 6 cylinders, and has a pop every now and then (too much fuel) and then if i rev it at all it floods the engine and drops a fair few cylinders and stops,

so ive been talking with dr drift and hes says the tune on the ECU should be close to perfect and should be able to drive on it, which i believe as my bro's car had the same chip and was sweet,

I sent dr drift how i have wired up the afm and he said i did it all right, (btw im waiting on response from him today as i just checked the afm for voltage and sent him the results) so i got from black wire to the white wire a voltage of .46V which i think its ment to b around .5V, so that seems ok,

I also did a ECU test, the code came up 55 so everything is checking out ok,

Do you guys think it may be a faulty afm? obviously me and dr drift will hopefully find out what it is this arvo, but i thought it wont hurt getting other opinions,

Thanks JV

    • Yeah, it's getting like that, my daughter is coming over on Thursday to help me remove the bonnet so I can install the Carbuilders underbonnet stuff,  I might get her to give me a hand and remove the hardtop, maybe, because on really hot days the detachable hardtop helps the aircon keep the interior cool, the heat just punches straight through to rag top I also don't have enough hair for the "wind in the hair" experience, so there is that....LOL
    • Could be falling edge/rising edge is set wrong. Are you getting sync errors?
    • On BMWs what I do because I'm more confident that I can't instantly crush the pinch welds and do thousands of USD in chassis damage is use a set of rubber jacking pads designed to protect the chassis/plastic adapter and raise a corner of the car, place the aforementioned 2x12 inch wooden planks under a tire, drop the car, then this normally gives me enough clearance to get to the front central jack point. If you don't need it to be a ramp it only needs to be 1-1.5 feet long. On my R33 I do not trust the pinch welds to tolerate any of this so I drive up on the ramps. Before then when I had to get a new floor jack that no longer cleared the front lip I removed it to get enough clearance to put the jack under it. Once you're on the ramps once you simply never let the car down to the ground. It lives on the ramps or on jack stands.
    • Nah. You need 2x taps for anything that you cannot pass the tap all the way through. And even then, there's a point in response to the above which I will come back to. The 2x taps are 1x tapered for starting, and 1x plug tap for working to the bottom of blind holes. That block's port is effectively a blind hole from the perspective of the tap. The tapered tap/tapered thread response. You don't ever leave a female hole tapered. They are supposed to be parallel, hence the wide section of a tapered tap being parallel, the existince of plug taps, etc. The male is tapered so that it will eventually get too fat for the female thread, and yes, there is some risk if the tapped length of the female hole doesn't offer enough threads, that it will not lock up very nicely. But you can always buzz off the extra length on the male thread, and the tape is very good at adding bulk to the joint.
    • Nice....looking forward to that update
