HI all my fellow brothers and sisters in SEQ.

Having just seen the carnage that is happening with the weather, I on behalf of my fellow northern brethren wish you all the best and hope that everyone is all ok. We understand the pain. We have cyclones.......

Cheers

Joe

Haha, cheers Joe. We just got smashed again for the 3rd time, since sunday, tonight. But it wasn't as bad as the last two...for me at least. Just as i typed that, fat and plentiful rain just started again...maybe i spoke to soon.

as someone who drives around all day for work ive had the biggest troubles and traffic jams in the last 4 days its just not funny the amount of rubbish on the roads and water everywhere you look...

creeks are over flowing everywhere, the rain was so intence on sunday it filled my empty 10,000 litre water tank in less than 60 minutes (through one down pipe)...

we only got power back on monday, wasted so much food etc...

i've never seen it this bad and ive lived on the northside my entire life...

i went for a ride out to northpine dam this afternoon (5 minutres from home) and the in flows are raging torrents, the dam is starting to fill nicely. They said she is at 43% on the new tonight, and it has not been full since like 2001/2002 so its a long time coming...

I live in North Lakes and we actually were barely effected by the storm at all. Yeah we got lots of rain but our house didn't flood or anything. We kept out power too. The front of North Lakes got a decent amount of hail but not the back (which is where i live).

oh ok, I'm up towards the front and I don't think we got any hail, we must have been lucky then. We were crapping ourselves, we have 3 cars and only a 2-car garage, the third had to be reversed up near the front door. We threw some blankets over the bonnet and used some old tyres to hold them down lol

My skyline only got a little damage but it wasn't from the storms it was from the insane wind we had on Saturday. Lifted my car cover up (metal frame with canvas top) and dumped it half in my yard and half in the neighbours. I got most of the marks off the paint (front quarter, door and rear quarter all on the passengers side) so its time to find a decent detailer who will cut and polish to try and get the rest of the marks out.

    • 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.
