Still having troubles? Ok.. just looking at this, few things occur to me.. but i could be completely wrong.

It sounds like you're not actually getting enough pressure to the injectors in the first place, and that sems to be the source. Even stock N/a injectors should be enough to run a little boost. Have you checked the fuel pressure at the rail, and is within range ? May be useful to rig up a pressure tester to the rail and see what you're getting. If you're not getting the required pressure in, the injectors won't be working correctly and hence may reach max cycle prematurely. Also, check your fuel pressure reg? is there any difference between the stock fuel pressure reg, and say the turbo thing. Again, the lack of pressure to the rail thing springs to mind.

Also the other is to check the source of course, and that is the fuel pump itself. Are there differences between the n/a fuel pump and turbo fuel pump in terms of flow? I know on like the GTS R33 there can be a difference.

Lastly, the AFM signal and when its maxing out is a bit of a telling sign. You tried other AFMs? it seems similar to the circumstances reached when you max out a stock GTS-T AFM when you hit the 220rwkw mark (and hence go for a Z32) when it can *appear* the injectors are maxing out .. and with the emanage, i believe you need a separate injector harness to be able to control/dictate the injector pulse rate which will be important in this situation to override the ECU's injector timings.

.. so overall it sounds more like other factors than the injectors at work here.. and it may just be the end result of them maxing out that is the most obvious.

Hope that might be some food for thought, if you haven't already gone through it all (probably have :()

p.s. thanks for the toulene!

The new injectors are in and It's now running VERY rich...so looks like it was just the stock ones not having the balls. My AFM is the turbo one anyway so not a problem...I've also got the injector harness hooked up.

The fuel pump is capable of flowing the pressure, also the fuel rail is up to the job.

The second the 385cc injectors were in, everything seemed to be OK...Thursday will be the final check on the dyno and with A/F ratios.

A few pics I quickly took, excuse the inch of dirt in the engine bay :D

I can honestly say even driving the car around at less than 3000rpm (to prevent any misadventure until full tune) it would still out perform the standard car revving the balls off it!

Hello Dan. Very intersested in what you have done as I would like to do exactly the same thing with my R34. Bought it in December and thought I could just whack a turbo on it but told it would be better to do an engine swap. Have you posted outcome of the operation and procedure.

Any info would be greatly appreciated.

Heya, got on the dyno, but was getting some bad timing retarding happening...waiting for my ignition harness to arrive for the e-manage.....then I can sort out the timing spikes back to something a bit less advanced. Will try and do it in time for the Mercury Motorsport Dyno weekend.'

I'm suprised your insurance was against the idea...my insurance didn't increase at all.

    • CTIS (Central Tire Inflation System) has existed since the 80's. I'm looking into buying a Hummer H1 and they generally included it. 
    • My idle is set at 950rpm though - Moving the timing around 20 degrees is not really what I'd call a calm idle. That said... neither is chop, by definition. The LS ECU likes to adjust timing to hold idle as opposed to air. It'd work, but generally speaking there'd be a discrepancy in the base idle and the IACV would want to move the timing around anyway to maintain said idle. I think I'm just going to keep the timing steady anyway. Preserve my engine mounts.  My aircon is now officially regassed. As the guy was reversing I noticed my reverse lights do not operate, along with my reverse cam. This is a bit distressing, because 100% of guides talk about which wire to connect to backup cams as "the goes with the [other color] wire". Often when doing conversions. Unfortunately the R34 colour wires aren't documented Unfortunately I had a T56 Magnum gearbox with it's reverse switch, which also isn't documented. Unfortunately there's definitely not documentation for people with both of these in the one car. Unfortunately I forgot. After many hours of this, I have a reverse cam and reverse lights again. The wire going through the trans tunnel to the reverse switch had broken. Upon inspection, it looks like this one wire had about 7 spade terminals and extensions in it.. for reasons I cannot possibly comprehend. I also spent the 750 hours required to clean up the wiring behind my head unit which now looks like this: This is a monumental improvement relative to what used to be there WRT triple gauges, head unit, traction control, wideband controller, and whatever the f**k OEM stuff still exists there in various states of connectivity/needed. Next step is to check in at the Exhaust shop to see/confirm how much clearance I have, to decide what mid mufflers or 'resonators' (which are just straight through, narrower mufflers) I can add and hopefully cut out a lot of exhaust leaks, pinhole, v-band or otherwise. But first step will be to 'take a look' before the next step.
    • Fark the AFM card and Nistune, Haltech Nexus S3, DBW, cruise control, flex fuel, dis dat.  
    • It's most likely the bolt/bush where the cover bolts back wore and allowed cover to move forward.
    • Still haven't put the injectors and R35 AFM in so we can tune the bloody thing for the HG highflow it got mid last year! I think I can forecast the upgrade path to a bigger twin scroll, external gate, Haltech, flex setup, Samsonas, dis dat, etc will be .... a while away!
