my mate was changin an injector and he forgot the lower seal, tryed to start engine and resulted in compression lock and a bent rod(i beleive)ticking sound from bottom end and missfire. all on cyl 4 the one he was playin with.

this resulted in me changing his engine and taking all that was left as payment.

i have:

engine complete including a few brackets, turbo rocker covers and coilpacks and cover, intake manifold, injectors, started motor, a loom that is hacked up but good for plugs ie aftermarket ecu install, r33 computer, afm, etc etc

engine had missfire that we traced to a loom issue, appart from that it was a great running motor.

offers for complete motor or parts considered

(turbo and loom not available for a week or so as they are still on the car being driven)

$850 for the lot

I don't understand how can the loom be hacked up because it is not available for a week as it is still on the car being driven??

Is it a series 1 or 2 engine? I need a couple loom plugs from a series 2 motor (that is if you'll split the loom from the engine package).

whoever did the conversion made an abortion of the loom trying to splice half rb20 and half rb25 loom, no 4 injector does not switch earth and there are a few other issues, could be sorted with some patience and knowlege. so car still runs but has missfire!

    • Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.
    • I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.
    • No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.
    • Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!
    • You think its the AFM? I know its a common issues on R32s. I find it coincidental how this issue raised right after cleaning the fuel system. As everything except the fuel system was fine before. I tried running it with the IACV unplugged but did not notice a difference and still stalled. However, the RPM gauge is not in the cluster right now, so I will need to connect the laptop again and use Nistune to check the RPM. I will check this weekend.
