hey guys im wondering if its worth my while fitting a fpr to my rb20, and if so what is a ball park psi to run. my mods include

fmic, turbo back 3 inch, walbro pump, splitfires, 13psi, blah blah the usual suspects. i dont have an aftermarket ecu.

im having trouble on start up, the car splutters and hunts and wants to stall, but as soon as its warm it runs fine, abeit a bit rich(proven by dyno), so it sounds like a fuel problem, hence the fpr thought. other than that could it be that the split fires have a higher heat sink than stock coils?

any imput would be sweet. cheers adam

yeah mate, they are the dis-001, for all rb engines. how do i clean aac valve? im going to change o2 sensor, and clean afm

You sure you have the right ones? Not all RB engines take the same coilpacks.

You dont fix problems by fitting aftermarket parts. If you have a factory ECU, it should run like factory, with factory parts.

You clearly have a problem somewhere, you need to fix that before you even think about modding.

i upgraded to the splitfires because my stock ones were on their last legs. the dis-001 were fitted by a reputable workshop, and are suitable for my engine. i know there is a prblem, and was after some help to work out what it was. cheers adam

DIS-005 and DIS-008 are also for RB engines. The series 2 also has inbuilt ignitors in the coilpacks.

The AAC is sitting at the back of the inlet manifold, it's a small gold coloured cylinder.

I believe that there is a tutorial on how to clean one in the DIY section. Saves me spelling it out step by step.

    • Yeah I've had too many issues with knock off's on the BMW's. I don't want to do a job twice or more because the parts are shit.
    • I read this and thought "ah! I will do this scissor jack on the tow point thing!" I just use my floor/low profile/costco jack and lift the car up by the tow hook itself, then slide jack stands under. Never thought about using scissor into floor jack combo :p
    • Well, my new WMI system took much longer to finalize. I actually missed my dyno appointment last Friday and lost my 150$ deposit. I'll be going back in the next week or two.  To sum it up. I only kept the AEM tank from my old setup. I replaced the AEM pump with a higher flow/pressure ProMeth 30GPH pump. I also swapped over to a 6AN low pressure feed line to the pump from the tank. There's also a pressure switch you cannot see on the pump high pressure line.    This is feeding 6x 200CC direct port nozzles and 1x 500CC Pre Throttle body nozzle. All fittings are Swagelok, because well why not. I also have a 300PSI pressure sensor up front.    I now have my Haltech ECU controlling everything. I start my pump with a basic relay at 5PSI and deadhead it. I then PWM a 3000CC methanol Injector to control flow starting around 10psi. The pressure switch in the trunk, along with my tank level are safeties before I ever get to 10PSI, and then I use my pressure sensor upfront as a secondary safety to cut the WMI and corrections in case the injector blocks or a line ruptures.  Wish me luck on the dyno!    
    • So, I'm back with bad news. There's no jack long enough on this planet that will reach the front subframe. If by some chance there is, it would weigh 200lb's.  I purchased a long reach jack... The damn thing weighted 120lb's and was massive. Didn't even come close, was still short at least a foot. It was a pain, but I brought it back. Next I decided HA! No problem, I'll get an Extra long reach jack. Well, I couldn't lift the box... It must have weighed 160LB's and luckily there was an open box in store. I took measurement and was still nowhere close.  Sadly I've lost hope and have accepted defeat. 
    • Thanks for that tip, niZmO_Man. I think the battery is OK. It's quite a new one, but I'll check. Last time I needed a new battery, everything electronic was fine, except that there wasn't enough current to turn over the starter. I decided to order one of the partial AV system translation CDs from Car Audio Workshop in NZ. That might have some effect, or help me diagnose the date problem. 🤞
