hey guy just need help or suggestions with my wiring/engine. i have a vl calais with an r34 neo engine and manual box. bigger turbo, bigger injectors, aftermarket greddy plenum so wiring also dosnt fit. have standard computer etc. spent ages wiring up as loom was cut in several spots. managed to get it to a stage where it was cranking but would fire. had no injector pulse or spark. cas is new but had to use harness plug from rb 20 to fit. after a few weeks of playing got over it and ripped whole harness out. ive heard ill need and aftermarket comp anyway and also heard that rb25 wiring will fit just will have to use r33 aftermarket comp such as apexi power fc? so what do you think i should do. either go with that set up to save dramas or send my harness out somewhere if possible to be wired up correct. any help would be appreciated as ive searched heaps of places and sites etc over the last few months. all where helpful but not mush info at all. cheers

really there quite a few things i can think of to check, you may need to be more descriptive about what is and isn't working? fuel pump priming, ecu got power, etc.

and yes, if you have a bigger turbo and bigger injectors you will need and aftermarket ecu. depending on what ecu you choose, if you can get the standard engine loom wiring up right you might be able to get a plug in ecu. if you cant get the wiring sorted then just get a full wire in aftermarket ecu.

    • So it should work in my case?  I does not say R34 but it say push(i have push gearbox/clutch right now) No i wont...and i do not drift/race or do anything crazy with car so even a small box should be ok for a couple of months
    • Ha ha, yeah, I've had one following me around in my parts boxes since about 2007 I believe. Just a little iddy bit hole drilled in the one I have to let it vent out once pressure was removed from the engine side. Still no idea what I'd put it on, ha ha.
    • Just read this... Just a little bit of a wild one! Do you think the driver was testing out a new feature/device for how to lose the cops in a high speed chase?   I also suspect, if the box has a road sweeper that does magnetic metal pick up, he does a LOT of work in the machining industry. Which is what most of that looked like, machining chips from a mill or lathe. And I bet they're RAZOR sharp! And from an environmental perspective they really do need to actually collect all of those little pieces too. I wonder how many people still cop flat tires over the coming months on that road?   As for insurance company, yeah, it'd be interesting to hear what they say to the owner. But realistically, he's right, that "It's his fault". In the way that, it was his truck that spilled it, so they need to clean it up. However, neither he, nor his insurance company may bear the end cost if they do an investigation and find out it was caused by someone elses negligence (And they know who)...
    • Yeah, no matter what bad things people can say about Julian from Autospeed, he at least was capable of thinking and his inclusion of a check/relief valve in the plumbing for the Audi boost controller, that I made a copy of and used for years**, completely eradicated that problem. **It's still lying on my workbench where I put it about, um, 18 years ago and have never found a home for it!
    • I didn't actually know this! I've seen photos of the H1, mainly outside shots, and they just look "different". I guess there'd be a few little changes like nicer rims, and probably the fact they have nicer looking paint with some depth and shine, which will make any vehicles body look different to the very flat colours of the defence force.   I've watched the guys on GHPC convert their Humvee to LS1, and they've done some really nice front shock upgrade. I'm waiting for the next video on it with the rear end done. I can't remember if they've already done it, or I dreamed it, but I believe they're also supercharging theres. They will be in the future doing proper long travel suspension too.   If you ditch out your big V8, as rubbish as it must be, send it to my place. I'll let the unreliable V8 motor and box be here. I just like V8s... So I'll find something to do with it... Even if that something is just taking up valuable space in the yard. I might have something Skyline I can send back in payment... Or even Ford Barra motors  (From memory you're in Canada yeah?) So you can then play with the legendary Aussie 4L version of an RB...  Except they don't have that distinctive random miss at idle like the RB25 does.
