Ok I need some help once again. I finally started my 25/30 for the first time yesterday and it was going as fine as it could for no AAC, bigger cams and no tune. So I put it into the shed to do a check up later last night at about 11pm and when I started the car is made a tapping noise. It sounds like it is coming from the back of the head. Another member posted a video on youtube and it sounds exactly the same

Way too loud to be injector pulse. Im thinking it is either big end bearing or lifters. I didnt get the car above 4000 yesterday and only putted around in third gear (went to the servo) so I dont know how it could be a bearing! Knowing my luck it is and I will have to pull the f**king thing out again. I topped up the oil to see if the noise may go away but it was still there.

Now about half an hour ago I went to start the car to see if it made the noise when it was a little warmer outside and the bloody thing wont start at all. Maybe my plugs are completely fouled from the overfueling?

Please help :down:

Yeh I have oil pressure. I pulled the plugs out today to put new ones in and found out one of the plugs has loss a little bit of metal down in the motor. Do you reckon I can get a little flexi magnet pen to try and get it out? How much damage can it do? God dam I have no luck

Ok turns out the plug wasnt snapped it had melted. It was just that covered in black crap. I have put new plugs in it but it still isnt wanting to start. Any ideas on what it might be? I have tried winding it over and I got a couple of backfire sounding noises. Someone please help :laugh:

If your plug melted, sorry your in deep sh#t. A melted plug usually also means big knock and a holed or melted piston is also common. Covered in black crap means heaps of gunked up oil and stuff. I'd do a compression test but if your lifters aren't working it may not mean anything.

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Yes. You will need to get the original boost sensor and wire it in. That is.... if you plan to use a stock ECU - even a Nistuned ECU. The Nissan ECU will not operate correctly without it connected. And yes, it will do annoying stuff like you are experiencing. You will almost certainly be better off with some aftermarket ECU, than trying to hunt down rare sensors.

      Ok so ABS/TCS is "not" the problem. Yeah i know now about the ABS with Nistune(i told that to the Nistune guy) but iam not 100% why or why i dont have ABS. ABS cube is in the engine (always has been) but i had braked couple of times rly hard and brakes just locked and scream. Does all Skylines have ABS cube? That boost sensor https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/367633-wtb-r34-gtt-turbo-pressure-sensor-pics-inside/ Is this it? I need to ask but i have a picture of engine bay and i do not see that (100% is not in that place) If i do not have this the car can do what mine is?(cutting around 4000 rpm) Here is the pic of my engine bay(only one i have) BUT i think i dont have that cuz loom was used from my RB20DE NEO and i know (obviously) that it does not have boost control or any wire to that...) so maybe that is the problem? (i dont know for 100% if that car where the engine is from had that)...but i dont have the loom from that

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      I'm with you here. It's either loom has an issue, OR, injectors are not functioning properly. It could even be they're just constantly dribbling, hence the wet, but not firing.

      By Duncan · Posted

      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
